(Ami speaking into a com recording device.)
Ami: This is Doctor Ami Standish. My appointment today is with Tere Kensington.
(Tere smiles at Ami.)
Ami: Tere, please tell us what your position is on this starship.
Tere: Hi Ami. I am the High Captain of the starship. I, along with Cal and Oln, make sure the starship is running efficiently and that the crew is paid. Everyone wants to get paid. I don't know why that is.
(Tere and Ami laugh.)
Ami: So Tere, tell me about Sev.
(Tere laughs.)
Tere: Sev, sometimes I want to strangle the man and other times I want to rip his clothes off. Of course, it's a good thing I want to rip his uniform off more than strangle him. You know, Ami, I wasn't even going to marry him. What Sev wants, Sev gets. His brothers tell him that all the time. He has an attitude problem and thinks his way is the only way. Sometimes, I just have to slap him a bit, wake him up and tell him, Severin Kensington, your way is not the only way. Remember who the mercenary is here. Usually he'll tell me, remember who the commando is here.
Ami: I've noticed that about him, but you both love each other so much. Everyone around you can tell that.
(Tere sips her coffee and smiles.)
Tere: Yes which is why I haven't sworn him off, though I did come close. Who can resist the man. He's gorgeous. I love his dark wavy hair. He gets it cut just the way I like. I'm obsessive about it. I love to put my hands in his hair when we're making love. I love his dark eyes. They're just beautiful and look at his body, six foot of pure muscle. All the women on this starship are crazy about him.
Ami: Tell me about Sarih.
Tere: I don't like to say bad things about anyone, but that woman was a koocha. She's lucky she didn't get shot by me. No one, and I mean no one, goes after Sev and to do it in front of me just goes to show what kind of woman she is. Everyone knows that Sev and I are married. You don't go after married men on the starship especially the High Captain's husband. I hear she's doing okay now and doesn't remember what happened. Sam's regression therapy is very effective, so things will work out for her. She's on Terran Now.
Ami: Tere, who is your best friend on the starship?
Tere: Ami, how's Am today? Cal wants to give her a raise which I've approved. I love you both like sisters. I'm so glad you found each other. Really, Amber wanted to come on board because she wasn't having an easy time on Soran. I can't believe that people discriminate in this day and age. I mean so what if you are both women and love each other. That's all that matters. Faithfulness is all that matters. I know Sev is faithful, but he is a man and doesn't get it that woman get the wrong idea when he looks at them. Anyway, I have two best friends on the starship, Cal and Oln. We've been through so much together. I've worked with Cal for a long time and Oln asked me to marry him. I was in love with Sev. I brought Beth on board because I knew that she and Oln would be perfect for each other and I was right.
Ami: Besides Sev (Ami laughs), who is your favorite Kensington?
(Tere smiles.)
Tere: My favorite Kensington besides Sev is Jas. The one I respect the most is Ben. Jas is so funny and so much fun as you know. He's sweet and kind. He'd never do anything to hurt anyone but the enemy and neither would Ben and JS. They all love me like a sister.
Ami: Jas loves you as more than a sister.
(Tere sighs.)
Tere: I know. He always has, but he was always playing the game. He loves women, Ami, all of them. Sev only loves one woman, me. Sev may look occasionally but he only wants and desires me. Jas wants them all. Anyway, Ben is the voice of reason of the Kensington brothers. He's truly the leader because he's sensible and sees beyond his own needs. Ben sees the big picture and everyone respects him because of it. Sev leads with his fist. The commandos love him because he's so damned tough. He whips them into shape and is right out there working out with them. Whatever they have to do, he does it with them. One hundred one armed push ups, Sev does them with his commandos. JS, he's a sweety. I love him to pieces. He's so intelligent. He can program cyborgs as well as I can. He can hack through any computer system and his redeeming quality is his shyness. He's perfect for Saram.
Ami: Tere, why didn't you tell Sev who you are right from the start?
(Tere sighs and takes a sip of her coffee. She smiled.)
Tere: It would have been in my best interest to tell him, wouldn't it? I didn't tell him because Lord Adron thought it was best that I didn't tell anyone. Sev will never hurt me again. He knows who he is now and that's what's important. I would never leave him. I love him too damned much and to be honest, he knows what he's doing in bed. I've always been crazy about him and I always will be crazy about him. He makes me so damned angry at times but at the same time, he drives me insane with passion. I swear he has that damned rituals book memorized page by page along with the laws book and of course, he made sure I knew damned well that he had the laws book memorized. He's thrilled to be married to me finally. I never thought it was going to happen. I'm thankful that I didn't give up hope.
(Ami looks at the chrono.)
Ami: Well looks like our time is up. Thanks, Tere. I'll see you again next week.
(Tere smiles and gets up to leave. Ami locks out the session with her voice commands and turns off the com recording device.)
