“They have to be cupcakes, mom.” Alex said with some irritation.
Dana herself was also out-of-sorts. And she knew the cause: she hadn’t heard from Alice. She felt stupid getting so wrapped up in a married woman, but, there was something about her that just drew Dana in.
Dana got notification that Daniel would be joining her team. Her elation quickly faded when the messages she left for Alice regarding the team schedule went unreturned and Daniel did not show up for his first practice. Dana kept going over that meeting in the park to figure out what she did wrong. She nearly drove Harrison crazy with reviewing every word said and looking for double-meanings. It was he who gently explained that maybe there were other factors in Alice’s life that changed her plans. It was his subtle way of reminding Dana that there was a husband in the picture somewhere. But there was something about the other woman that got under Dana’s skin and she hoped to at least be able to be friends.
So Alex and Dana were in the supermarket on a Sunday afternoon trying to find cupcakes for him to bring to pre-school the next day. Dana rarely bought baked goods and didn’t realize how picked over they would be by this time. And Alex was adamant on not taking any substitutions. Cookies just would not do.
Dana took another look around to see if there was anything she missed. It was then that she noticed a familiar head of hair. She turned the cart and headed that way.
“Alice!” Dana said as she got close. “Hey, Alice?”
The other woman stopped and looked briefly like she might try to run. But she did stop and turned to give Dana a slight smile. “Hi, Dana.”
Daniel and Alex were happy to see each other. They each pulled out Matchbox cars from their pockets to compare as the big people talked.
“I called about the team schedule. Did you get the message?”
“Um…” Alice lowered her eyes. “I did.”
“So… Is there a reason you didn’t show for practice?” Dana tried hard to keep the hurt out of her voice.
Alice looked up into the eyes of Dana. She sighed. Better to tell the truth.

How cute that Alice was embarassed about not recognizing Dana. I am really enjoying this story and I can’t wait to see our girls in the kitchen baking. Until then I am patiently waiting.
Great update goose. I love the story. It’s so original. I am off alittle early tonight. So hopefully I will be writing too.
Magoose you rock! I was just thinking about this story the other day and a big grin crept across my lips when I saw this update. Great as always. LOL on Dana kept going over that meeting in the park to figure out what she did wrong and made Harrison crazy for that. She could be suck a goof sometimes. And Alice running away from Dana? Wasn’t it cute? Can’t wait for the baking scene…Thanks and PPS. You made my day!
Love how the two boys has hit is off. Alice and Dana in the kitchen baking. That would be something to see. thanks
Awesome update MG, I love this story it is so freaking CUTE!!!! Of course I am doing the HDD coz they are sooooooooo cute!!! U rock and I can’t wait for ur next update!!! PPVS
LA LA..la de da…Ok, i’m back from my little excursion into Danishworldlandislandamazingness. I’m late getting here and everyone basically covered everything. The whole baking thing has me a bit worried though…Are they going to make a mess and have to clean up in the shower? JK Anyhooser, excellent job..like you need to be told that. HUGZ to MaH budDy =]
And if there’s some icing at the end of the baking maybe Alice can flick some on Dana’s face and lick it off…or not, whatever. Love this :)
I have a feeling the cupcakes will be burned in the next chapter. Why? Well lets just say Dana will have her eyes all over Al. And Al will totally forget the cakes untill they boys run in and say it smells bad. It’s just my view of thinking ahead. Nice update!!!
