Elijah was nodding but stopped and stared at the sergeant. He sipped his coffee and his expression was mostly blank but a small frown appeared. Finally he looked away and put a hand over his mouth. He hung his head. "Sorry..' He managed to mutter. "It's just.. the nicest thing I ever heard about how I did my job. I've always heard the opposite and sometimes it makes it hard to come into work. Thank you sir, I .. I really mean that." He wasn't crying, the coffee was just so hot it made him tear up even as he kept drinking.
