Dana: “deny what?”

Alice: “you like girls…, there is no reason to be ashamed, you must be proud of yourself, not all women can understand other women, worship their bodies and make love to them”

Dana: (red-faced) “hey…, I’m not a lesbian…”

Alice: “yes, you are…, your ring finger is longer than your index finger…, oh, I see, you are in the closet”

Dana: “me…, no…”

Alice: “now you’re gonna tell me you have a boyfriend”

Dana: “no, I…, I’m a tennis player…, look I don’t have time to date”

Alice: “hey…, I’m not asking for a date…, just a coffee or a drink or whatever, just to talk…, and you’ll tell me your business with James…, what about 6:30 pm…, at the door of the gym”

Dana: “hmm…, okay… 6:30…, I’ll do this for my brother…, just for him”

Alice: (smiling) “yeah…, for your brother…”

Dana left the lab with a faint smile, she is very attracted by women, but with a homophobic father, she does everything she can to restrain herself; Howard Fairbanks is very possessive and sometimes violent with her mom, he blames her for all the things that upset him. Dana’s experience with women was in the range minimum to nothing…, yeah she would like to touch those bodies, to feel the skin, the soft kiss, the wetness, the caring…

That evening Dana and Alice went out for some drinks and appetizers, and they keep meeting for coffee and drinks for few weeks, so they became friends, Alice learned about Dana’s inexperience with women and she offered to be her tour guide in that matter, and introduced her to her friends.

As the days passed, Alice dedicate a big part of her time to show Dana the lesbian life in Boston, of course, she was popular and talkative; soon Dana realized the popularity of her new friend; Alice dated all types of lesbians, a ‘vampire lesbian’ a ‘male lesbian’, a ‘musician lesbian’ and of course some nasty ones, at her side Dana was a humble apprentice but learning fast; but the tennis player didn’t know why she felt uneasy when seeing her blonde friend with all those girls. On her side, Alice attended to Dana’s games and tournaments, where she took her friends to cheer the tennis player; things went steady until Dana decided to look for a girlfriend, initially Alice helped her on grooming herself, and on how to send the correct message, they even, with the help of their friends, ‘evaluate the possible aspirants’, but it was that girl from finances major, Tonya, who enveloped Dana in her spider web; initially isolating her from all her friends, and later to parasite the group looking for support and acceptance as a Dana’s girlfriend.
