The two of you had gotten into a heated argument about Silco of all things. During a rough disciplinary meeting with Silco, he had been really tough on Sevika, saying a lot of really harsh things about your girlfriend.

After he had finished with his rant and dismissed the two of you, you took Sevika's hand in your own and walked out of his office. Sevika wasn't the biggest fan of PDA, but you figured she might need a little extra comfort after all of that.
