Tahiri sighed and rolled over.  She did not want to wake up.  But there was an insistent voice humming in her ear.  "Tahiri wake up.  It is past time you ate something."

                She rolled over and groaned at the intruder.  "Tekli did anyone ever tell you that you are a tyrant when it comes to patient care?"

                "I'm sure there have been one or two."  She smiled.  "But none who have really earned the right such as you."

                She playfully threw the pillow at the Chadra-fan.  The ensuing war was abruptly halted when a throat was cleared in the door.  "Am I interrupting your breakfast?"

                The two young woman burst into peals of laughter as Luke walked into the room.  "Master Skywalker," Tahiri gasped between giggles, "to what do I owe this honor?"

                "Just curious to see how well you're doing."

                "Other than starving and slightly sore.  Not bad."

                She caught his eyebrow shooting up at her comment about being sore.  That made her wonder one thing.  "Just how long was Jacen in here with me?"

                Tekli did not hesitate.  "Three days Tahiri.  He came out of here much less tired than he should have been though."

                Tahiri laughed.  Brilliant and clear.   It felt so good to be back to normal again.  A tear slipped from the outer corner of her eye as she gasped for air.  Then she looked at the Jedi Master.  "He did what he came to do and that was it.  It took so long because I needed some convincing."

                "I'll say," interjected a new voice, "I spent most of that time attempting to get through your shields."

                "Well it could be said that you were headed where you were not wanted."  Joined the female counterpoint as she poked her brother in the ribs.

                Tahiri saw Jaina.  She began to stammer, "Jaina, I…I'm sorry.  I…"

                Jaina waved her hand in dismissal.  "I don't require your apology T.  It was Jag's head you attempted to remove from it's shoulders."

                The blonde lowered her head in shame.  There was nothing she could say that would mend that  tear.  But she would make the attempt.  "Where is he?"

                "He is still not allowed within a hundred meters of this medical suite."  Tekli put in.  "And none of you should be here right now either.  She will be up and about before the end of the day.  But only briefly and just to go to her quarters.  You may visit with her there."

                The three Jedi knew better than to try the healer's patience and left the area.  Tekli pulled the try over to Tahiri.  Then she headed to the door.

                "Thank you."

                The Chadra-fan merely bowed her head and exited the room.
