As soon as we’d closed the door behind Helena, Alice hugged me like she’d never get another chance to. “I really did miss you,” she whispered right before she kissed me. I giggled, since her mood seemed to have changed from tired to horny incredibly fast, but that didn’t mean I was going to turn her down. We left her suitcase in the hallway and stayed in bed for close to two hours until Kallie woke up, and after that, the two of them spent some time bonding.
I was really glad to see that Alice was being much more affectionate and relaxed toward Kallie. While I think we both understood that one trip to Hawaii wouldn’t make everything better, it seemed to be a really good starting point. Kallie spent most of the first night Alice was home trying to get her to finger paint, and in the end, we both ended up just as messy as Kallie was.
“Helena really helped me,” Alice told me later that night, before we went to sleep.
“That’s great babe, I’m glad it went well,” I told her honestly. “She called a few times and gave me updates.”
“Yeah, she told me,” Alice said, and even in the dark I could imagine her smile. “I think it helped her too. The whole thing with her mom…and Dylan was calling while we were there. I mean, it sounded okay, but I know she was really stressed out. Probably still is.”
“Yeah, she asked me to have lunch with her soon,” I replied. We were quiet then, content to just hold each other. “Hey Al?” I asked a little later. “I know it wouldn’t be right away, but how would you feel about having more kids someday?”
“I actually talked to Helena about that when we were there,” she replied after a minute or two. “I’d really like that.”
“Yeah?” I asked. To be honest, I was a little surprised. I hadn’t been expecting her to agree with the idea after everything we’d gone through.
“Yeah,” she said after a slight pause. “It’ll never be perfect, right? I mean, if all I do is sit here and wait for things to be that way before I consider it, I never will. And I don’t think that’s how I should go about it. That’s not living.”

Another great update, MT!! I am a bit sorry to hear the story will be ending in just 10 chapters — it seems like there is so much to say. But I am excited for you and your move to Scotland. I hope all goes well. On to comments… So glad everyone seems to be adjusting to the changes required to take care of Kallie. It is definitely a leg up to have a professional athlete as a mom. You are doing a good job at showing it is a manageable illness. I am glad some happiness is coming to Helena’s life. Love that Alice was calling Shane often to check on Dana. It’ll be interesting to see if Shane does foster. Alice’s homecoming was perfect. She really needed that break. Also love the talk of a second baby at the end. Just wonderful… Thanks!!
Amazing chap!!!
MT, I am happy for your move to Scotland and will definitely miss you around. BEST OF LUCK to you. I hope you will be able to find time and continue “You” while you are across the pond. As for this update, I am so happy that A managed to clear the head and came back happier and more optimistic. The fact that she was thinking about carrying a new baby gave us a good sign of her mental state. The scene of A and Helena returning to home was great. That is how I picture these two in the forever Danish land. What a nice aunt Shane was to come and check on D and Kallie. Nice touch that she let Kallie sleep on top of her. I also like the fact that Shane seemed to have matured and even wanted to foster a child. It was about time that Peggy Peabody came to her senses. I hope Helena would still keep her connection with the Center. This is truly a very happy chapter and I look forward to the rest of the story. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
