Annie was surprised that Steve made her coffee in the very way that she liked it. She didn't bother to mention that she knew that her parents resented her; they never missed a chance to tell her so. Suddenly she realized that he asked her a question and stammered to answer. "Um... yeah. I'm studying physics. For now, anyway. I would reeally like to study astronomy and do research, but try finding a community college around here that has a worthwhile astronomy program." She laughed at the sad truth and stared down into her coffee. Eventually she looked back up at Steve. "So, do you like working in IT? Or do you want to do something else?"
