    Lest I Forget (3)

    While the editors were looking over her book and making the necessary and requested changes to it, Al decided to go ahead and continue with the Chart. I’d known that she probably would, although I figured it wouldn’t be for too long. She was used to writing articles on a schedule, but novels? She’d never have any free time if she was still working at the station.

    Still, I never said anything to her about it, letting her make her own decisions. I was still trying to go through my recovery period as best I could, and there were a lot of changes for me. I had to deal with losing my career, which was a lot harder than I’d anticipated in the beginning. Alice was there to comfort me, but there was still a huge hole where tennis had been that I had no idea how to fill. As I got stronger and more ready to go back to work, I realized I’d have to do something…but I couldn’t think of what it could possibly be.

    Thankfully, I got a call from ESPN not too long after I was healed, requesting that I commentate on the US Open. I accepted readily, and the entire group went with me and watched as I commented on the entire thing. After that, I stopped worrying about my career. As Alice kept assuring me, things would take care of themselves.

    “If you hadn’t been so supportive back then, I don’t know how I would have made it,” I told her. Her eyes said that she felt the same, and we sat there in silence for a few minutes until Gemma came back in to change Al’s IV bags.

    “Sorry to interrupt,” she said quietly as she worked. I told her not to worry about it, that I was taking a break. Glancing over at me, she said she’d bring in a pitcher of ice water for me and left quickly. I smiled at Al.

    “Sorry, sweetie, I don’t think I can talk much more right now,” I whispered, suddenly feeling exhausted. While it wasn’t exactly difficult to remember the details of our life back then, it was exhausting all the same.

    I sat with her for about twenty minutes, just holding her hand and enjoying the silence. Gemma came in during that time and poured a glass of water for me, setting the pitcher down on the table within my reach. “I think this is a great thing you’re doing,” she said softly. “I’ve been trying not to interrupt.”

    1. frickin frick!!! wow wow wow that was amazing maaaaan u are so……….great!!! i love this story i get sad at times but the reminicising is just perfect well done my friends :)

    2. Yay! Cliffs of Moher! MT, how come you always manage to put something I love in your stories? I’m totally in love with Ireland, and I’ve got a pending backpacking trip all over Connemara, just beautiful!! ( Hummm…might as well propose to my boyfriend…? …i think not…not there yet :). Anyway, Am I the only one who prefers Dana’s first proposal? It was so shy and sweet… and unexpected!hehe I loved it. Well, just like nurseGemma, eager for another danish sneak peek!

    3. Okay this chapter gave me that warm and fuzzy Danish feeling. I love that Dana decided to propose for the second time in Ireland, and it seemed just about picture perfect. Well done MT!

    4. Yay i’m first! Well it is lovely yet bittersweet story as we already know but another fantastic chapeter. Feels as though we’re seeing the conclusion of ‘You’ 30 odd years down the line! Can’t wait to hear the kid’s stories and that nurse is fab isn’t she?!? ;)

    5. I love this story of an old alice and dana reliving thier younger days and what a better way to read it just wish we could have seen it in the show but nevermind at least we have you to let it great update please post soon

    6. hey, loved the proposal, I had it practically in front of my eyes, the fantastic view and all included. Very romantic. Thanx for the compliment, my english is ok I guess, but now and then I realize that my vocabulary could be a bit bigger.

    7. Loved the proposals and Alice’s reactions. It is soooo Jenny to just give Alice’s story to her editor. One of the things I like about this story and “You” is that the girls work at their relationship and on their own mental health. I went to Ireland many years ago and can’t think of a better place for a proposal. How romantic that Dana had the limo show up to take the right to the plane. I can’t wait for the next chapter! Thanks!
