“Oh man I’m sorry to hear that.” Shane showed her sympathy. Dana had been trying to tackle Alice for months now after she realized how stupid she was to break up with her a year ago. But certainly the blonde won’t make it easy for her and now Tasha was in the way. Things could get complicated sometime.

“I have asked her out so many times but either she was not free or she had already promised to go out with Tasha. I am starting to feel tired now. What does she want?”

“Hmm, looks like our Alice is playing hard to get here.”

Dana looked at Shane. Shane just shrugged her shoulders.

“My god what do I do now?”

“Seems like the advice that I gave earlier not working on the blonde huh? Hmm, let me think…..”

 Shane put her fingers under her chin pretended to think deeply. She actually knew what happened between them already. Alice told her everything from A to Z. She thought the blonde was stubborn, but she really had every right to do so, it was Dana who left her in the first place. Now that she wanted to reconcile with the blonde, she needed to work harder, as Alice would not give in easily this time. She wanted to make sure that the tennis player had already thought thoroughly what she wanted and would stay and commit fully if they ever wanted to work out a relationship. Although Shane pitied her tennis player friend and wanted to help, but Alice warned her that this time it must came from nobody but Dana herself. Shane sighed and thought to herself, It wouldn’t harm if I give her some hints right? A smile crept up across her face. She looked at the tennis player. Dana was looking at her expectantly. She sighed and adjusted her seat, hoping that her goofy friend would get it.

“Ok I think this is the only way. Be direct Dane.”

“Direct? What does that mean? Can you elaborate?”

“That one you have to figure out yourself.” Shane winked at Dana playfully. Dana groaned in exasperation.

“I can’t believe you leave me hanging here. Shane just say it already.”

“Dane, I want to help you, but sometimes you must figure out yourself what you have to do. I have already given you a clue here. If you really want Alice then it should not be hard. Ask your heart what you want ok? So I think that’s it. Good luck Dane!” Shane said as she stood up ready to leave.
