Mika had been planning on having a meet up for all the new department heads for some time. She looked forward to meeting everyone. So, this time the day before, she had sent out an invitation -

At 15:30, she had gone to the Holodeck and prepared the program - an early 21st century coffee shop. The shop was large, with several tables, and a server at the counter to take coffee orders. It also served some food. It was a quieter, upscale coffee shop, with dark wood finishes, and windows looking out on a street in a city, with mountains able to be seen in the background.
None besides perhaps Aili would know it, but it was a popular coffee shop in Mika’s hometown, Denver, Colorado, just up the street from her parent’s shop. She had known the owners. Though, for the hologram, she had used a random set of employees, avoiding using the faces of anyone she actually knew.
At 16:00, when she began expecting others to show up, she was sitting at one of the tables, sort of in the middle of the shop, drinking a tall caramel macchiato with whip cream - one of her favorite coffee drinks. And she just watched the door, waiting for the bell to ring and a familiar face to come through it.

A couple seconds before 16:00, Lieutenant Commander Hilo strolled through the door to the holodeck, a jovial air about him. He grinned when he spotted Mika and head straight for her, hand outstretched for a shake far before he reached her. “Lieutenant Mika!” he exclaimed. “What a splendid idea this was. I was meaning to organize something of the sort myself, but I appreciate your initiative to take over the morale officer duties while I was getting settled.” The risian man sat gracefully in the chair across from her, running a hand through his pushed-back brown hair and stretching as his bronzed face contorted in a yawn. “I don;t usually drink coffee, but in this case I might… these cadets have been running me ragged! How about you, how is the incoming class treating you?” The man was obviously extremely friendly, and seemed genuinely excited to meet her aquaintance.
