    Posthumous Wisdom (27)

    “I’m not a mind-reader, I had inside information.  Shane may have given me a call. I think she felt bad that she has a busy morning and couldn’t be here for you so she asked me to step into the breach.”

    “And you guys accuse me of being the one who knows everyone else’s business!”

    “Oh Alice, I’m sorry, it’s not like that, I’ll go if you want to be alone.  It’s just Shane and I had both read our own letters from Dana and we both needed someone to talk to after.  We just figured that it might be the same for you.  I completely understand though if you would rather be alone. I’m not trying to interfere at all I just thought maybe you might need to talk.”

    “I’m only teasing you Helena.  You’re right, I do need to talk to someone. Can I get you something to drink?”

    “If you’re sure you want me to stay, a coffee would be great.”

    “Eh Helena, I don’t mean to sound like your Mom or anything but shouldn’t you really be at work at this time on a weekday?” Alice called from the kitchen.

    “According to the office, I am, I’m at a very important meeting.  I’m discussing the media coverage of the upcoming Peabody Foundation Charity Ball with an eminent L.A. journalist!”

    “Oh I see” laughed Alice enjoying the fact that despite her new found ability to live life by the rules her friend still had it in her to bend them when it suited her.

    With coffees in hand Alice returned to the lounge and reclaimed her position on the couch with her knees bent up in front of her and her arms wrapped around them.  As she did this she suddenly remembered an article she had written once about body-language and how it often reflected the sub-conscious mind and she allowed herself to wonder what it said about how she was feeling that she was currently trying to contain her body in the smallest possible space.  Before her thoughts could wander any further she quickly remembered that she had company and looked up to meet Helena’s gaze.

    “So, even you needed to talk to someone after reading Dana’s letter huh?  As much as she struggled to find the words sometimes when she was talking, it turns out she sure could articulate what she wanted to say on paper.”

    1. Poor Alice! Again I applaud you for the honest emotions of your story that are so true to the characters. Love how you describe the thoughts of the girls on Dana having died alone — and the fact that if they didn’t say “good bye” she couldn’t leave them. I’m glad your internet connection is working because I really love this story! Thanks for the new chapter!

    2. I’m glad helena is there for alice!! i know i have to wait,lol. but i love how this story is unfolding and you are doing a wonderful job with it! :)

    3. Aww man I’m sitting here bawling at 8am. This is just incredible, and you’re immensely cute and sweet for valuing my opinion…I just write stream of consciousness baloney, you’re the one tackling the real issues of Dana’s death. It hurt me too much to write her dying, so I had her live. Stories like yours are what this Danish fandom really needs, though…closure of some sort after her death. We weren’t given even an inkling on the show. Thanks for doing the job far better and more eloquently than I ever could.

    4. I agree about everything that you’ve written in this chapter. What this Alice says and does hits close to home, so I understand. And I’m with Magoose, how this is written with honest emotions is just awesome. Thank you for this wonderful chapter. And yay to your internet connection. :D

    5. me again -rolls eyes- Seeing Alice grieve about Dana’s death is well… I don’t have the right word to describe it but thank you for um (I’m horrible :) ) including that with this story. I really don’t know what she felt after D passed away, I’m certain she was sad but it would’ve been great had the L word showed that to us. that’s all. :) I’m leaving, swear.:)
