Lwazanda awoke witnh a smile one her face. she stretched her arms out above her head just as Mirenna opened the door and and entered.
"Good morning Ma'am." The Young Betazoid said cheerily.
"It is, isn't it?" Lwazanda said, swinging her legs to the side of the Starfleet issued bed.
Mirenna nodded, handing a cup of tea and a PADD to her mistress.
"The movers will be around in a half hour." Mirenna began, "While they're working, Stannis has requested a meeting with you to go over preparations for your first engagements and your husband's arrival."
Lwazanda sipped her tea, and nodded her head. "Yes, when is Kon scheduled to arrive?"
"Not for over 2 months ma'am."The girl said meekly.
"Well, we'll just have to keep busy then won't we?" Lwazanda aid with a smile.
Mirenna smiled.
"I think the Fuschia wrap, with the matching turban. " The older Betazoid said, standing and moving to her bags.
After dressing, Lwazanda sent Mirenna to keep an eye on the movers, while she made her way to a meeting with Stannis.
Stannis Suder was a tall, thin man. He decided to meet Lwazanda in a lovely little restaurant her found on the station.. He stood on her arrival, taking in the beauty of the woman he had served for more years than he could count.
Lwazanda looked around at the restaurant of Stannis' choosing. 'Not bad' She said to him, telepathically as she approached.
Stannis had served as Lwazanda's Chief of Staff for much of her Ambassadorial career.
"You're looking well." Stannis said, rounding the table to pull out Lwazanda's chair.
"Thank you Stannis, If we could hurry this along, I have an apartment to assemble." Lwazanda sat and pulled her chair closer to the table, as Stannis rounded back to his own seat.
"I understand, and that is one thing I wanted to talk about." He started, "Your Housewarming."
Lwazanda smiled as a Human waiter approached the table.
"Have we made a decision?" He asked.
"Just a glass of Bajoran Spring Wine for me. Nothing to eat." Lwazanda said.
Stannis looked at her aghast, "Andorian Fire tea." He ordered, as the human nodded and made to leave.
"Make that a bottle of Spring Wine." Lwazanda spoke, grabbing the young man's arm.
"Yes ma'am." He said leaving the pair.
"A bit early for that, don't you think Lwazanda?"
The Betazoid woman adjusted her turban, "Deities No. I have a long day ahead of me Stannis. You'd be wise to follow my lead."
Shaking his head, "So for your Housewarming, I was thinking of a cocktail party? or would you prefer a dinner?"
"Who are we planning to invite?"
"Senior Officer's, friends, any available dignitaries." Stannis said, lifting a PADD.
Lwazanda nodded, "With that lot, Cocktails." She said as their drink order arrived.
The waiter set a glass down in from of Lwazanda, and filled it with a very light pink liquid.
Raising her glass, Lwazanda said, "May the Deities grant us new beginings and a slow road to death."
Stannis raised is delicate china cup in response, watching Lwazanda drink the entire contents of her glass.
"You should probaby stick around boy." He said to the Waiter.
The waiter nodded, and filled Lwazanda's glass again.
The woman sipped then set down the glass, "I want to set up a lunch or a tea or something for myself and Janice Bremer." She picked up her glass again and brought it to her mouth but then pulled it away, "Invite the handsome Major from the Docking Bay." Lwazanda brought the glass back to her mouth and drank back the remainder.
The Waiter filled it once more, and in only moments it was empty again.
Stannis rolled his eyes as it was filled yet again.
As Lwazanda finished the last bit of her wine, she sighed, "Shall we go and check on my new home."
Mirenna stood on the staircase, One hand on her hips, the otherholding a PADD, spewing orders at the movers as they came in with various objects.
"Be careful with that!" she bellowed, "That is the Holy Sceptre of Betazed."
She stormed down the stair and took it from the man holding oit carefully to her chest. "You may go." she said without so much as a look to the man..
Than man opened his mouth to protest, and then turned on his heel and departed.
Mirenna smiled, her mistress had taught her well.
Still holding the Sceptre, Mirenna continued directing the team of movers.Their work was almost done.
Lwazanda filed in behind a air of movers carrying her desk. A desk given to her by Former Federation President Jaresh-Inyo. Stannis followed close behind her.
Mirenna called from her perch on the stairs, "We're almost done, then its just a matter of arranging things the way you'd like."
"If you follow my lists to the letter, that shouldn't take long." Lwazanda looked around her vast Entry way.
"Ahh. It's good to be home!" Lwazanda said mounting the stairs.
