Derck turned his head away for the computer and looked at his co-workers, surrounding the television monitor. He then got up and walked towards them, usual if you're not at your desk, you get a warming, but today was special. Today was the day, that Shepard and Anderson were at Defense Committee's meeting to discuss the strange energy emissions found just outside the Sol system a week earlier. One of his co-workers said, "Is Commander Shepard going to tell them that the 'Reapers' are the cause of the energy emissions?" and then another co-worker laughed and said, "You know that they're just a myth, the Geths were the ones that attacked the Citadel, but I wouldn't bet you anything.". Then Derck said, "Either known she saved the Citadel, she is bat-shit crazy." and then almost all of the co-workers laughed and one of them said, "Yeah, even the councils said that the Geths invaded not the 'Reapers'.". He looked at the television screen once more and then saw the time on the screen and said, "Oh shit. I got to get home for my anniversary." and walked to his desk to shut everything off and then headed to the elevator. Another co-worker said, "Well, I hope you have a great anniversary in bed." and Derck laughed as he said, "Shut up.", to him as he walked inside the elevator and pushed the button to the parking lot, where his flying car is, and waited as the elevator moved up towards the last floor. The elevator stopped and then opened it's door as Derck got out of the elevator and walked towards his car. He then opened the door with his omni-tool and got into the driver seat as he turned on his car with his omni-tool again. The car started as it got up to the air, since his car was facing towards him, all he have to do was to drive forward and he would be up in the sky with other cars beside him. He did that as he turned the radio one and it was on the news, where they are talking about the Defense Committee's meeting and why it's important and stuff. He drove the usual way to his home and heard the radio as the reporters were keep talking about Shepard's actions and Anderson's as well. He then saw his home, a white color house with a view of the Committee's tower, it has a good view of the river and below them as well. He turned and saw the landing pad as he landed on the pad and turned off his car as he got out and closed it with his omni-tool. He then walked to the door and opened it, which then released the smell of roast being cooked, she got him a human style food. He then walked to the bookshelf as he looked for the gift, a box of chocolate, and then find it behind a book. As he opened up, he smell the vanillas and the chocolates inside of the box and then shut the box and put it behind his back as he stand there and walked slowly into the hallway and headed towards the noise. He walked closer towards the noise and realize that Ryleigh and the kids were in there as well. He walked towards Danny's room and said, "I knew I should of have locked my room before leaving for work." as he saw the kids playing 'First Contact'.
