She wouldn’t look at me. I moved so I was right in front of her face, and she still didn’t meet my eyes. “What, you’re gonna be pissed off now?” I asked. I hated being upset with her, but I couldn’t seem to control it. “Fine,” I muttered. I thought about leaving the room, but as frustrated as I was I couldn’t do that to her. I just sat back in the chair and looked at the floor instead.
She heaved a sigh and fumbled around for a minute until she was able to touch my hand. I glanced up at her and almost started to cry for how sad she looked. She was looking right at me, and the tears in her eyes were so big the brown seemed a little diluted. “I’m sorry,” I whispered, taking her hand and squeezing it. She squeezed back and gave me a tiny smile. “Do you forgive me?” I asked. She just smiled again and blinked yes. Then she moved her hand away from mine, and after some determined concentration she was able to bring it to her face. She closed her eyes, then opened them and looked at me.
“I slept last night, honey.”
She blinked yes at me and made the sign again.
“I don’t know what you mean…” I told her, trying to think but unable to grasp what she was trying to say.
All she did was make the sign again. But after she did that, she managed to get her hand into position to point at me.
“You want me to sleep? Even though I did last night?” I asked, still confused. She blinked yes. “Baby, it’s not even two.”
She heaved a sigh and looked away from me. “Come on, don’t be mad at me,” I said. She didn’t make any move to respond, but it didn’t matter much since the nurse came in right about then.
“Are you two all right?” she asked conversationally as she checked Alice’s bags. At first I had trouble placing her, but then I remembered that she was the nurse who’d replaced Gemma before.
“Yeah, she’s just upset with me. It’s not anything new,” I replied with a sigh.
“Anything specific?”
“I don’t know,” I said thoughtfully. “She keeps telling me to sleep, but it doesn’t really make a lot of sense. I slept all right last night.”

MT, you continue to do a beautiful job with their communication, deep understanding of each other and immense love for each other. It’s encouraging know that A had some limited movement . It was great to have Jenny and Shane there helping out D to understand what troubled A. Also felt very positive with their phone conversation. “An upgraded version of Jenny’s shed” , lmao. Oh, please let D rest longer. I do not want to see getting sick. Thank you for this update and remember school comes first.
No: I would not want to look at Betty all day in court. Woo hoo! What a great end to the week to get a new chapter from you!! It’s wonderful how the girls have such a close connection that they are able to overcome the communication issues. I laughed out loud at this: “…if I didn’t eat the food they were going to get one of their buff gay waiters to come kick my ass because it would make all three of them too tired.” You are doing a great job with the beginnings of Shenny. Poor Alice — it must be so hard for her to write about those things. I can see where she would be “off” and not want Dana to read it. I am so glad Alice liked the new office — of course, how could she not? I hope Dana gets a little more than the two hours sleep. Those hospital vigils can be so draining. Excellent chapter, as usual, MT!! Thank you so much!!!
Whoa! That was a pretty deep chapter. I have to echo most of MaGoose said…communication issues, the buff waiter, Alice dealing with the writing. Great stuff, it just shows us all how much they are REALLY meant to be together. Thanks A LOT for another outstanding chapter.
