She reminded me of the dog we had when we were kids, and I guess I was feeling kinda raw after everything. You tell anyone that and I'll send everyone at HQ pictures of your boobs. He was going to keep her from their dog's litter, but said if I want her, I can take her.
Sort of. I just figured we could both use something fun and innocent in our lives right now. I thought we could share her for a little while.
Hey, I'm not faulting your choice. Dogs are good for healing. Or maybe that's just animals in general. Hey, there are people that would pay for pictures of my boobs. Still, I'm not letting them see them. Wow, that was really great of Foster.
That's pretty serious. Although, I think a lot of it is just piling in on him. I told you before he missed you. He's still got to deal with his brother being alive again - which I'm not telling you to rub it in. It's just a fact. He does need to deal with it. He also hasn't had much chance to talk to you, then you add in all the Ali stuff, and the Jamie stuff. He's also got no one to pick up the pieces, or lean on like a partner. He's doing it alone.
Hey, we're still married. I legally own half of that fake excuse.
Briefly. She seemed okay. I think there's relief for it finally being over.
Yeah, he told me this morning he keeps waking up thinking I'm dead. I didn't even know what to say because he doesn't know what really happened. I told him about Ali, he didn't take it well. But I told him now is the time he should try to make amends with her and that Andrew isn't going to slice his balls off for just being there. At least, I don't think so. Last few days, I'm not so sure my balls are on the block too.
Only as the grieving ex-widow.
And she didn't say anything about Mark? I wondered if she got the shits when she realised who he was because he freaked out a little when I pointed it out. It didn't make sense.
That's a horrible way for him to be waking up. You can't... I know you've told a few people, but why not tell your brother? Doesn't he deserve to know? Or do you think it'll just hurt him more? He wouldn't do that. Not Andrew. Mark really should try and make amends, though.
What am I now?
Why would she get the shits? You don't think... No. Can't be.
Simple answer? His clients are my perps. Complicated answer? I should never have told anyone and I'm still being raked over the coals for it, now with the added fear Harri is going to extract revenge with her knowledge. Did you miss the way Andrew was looking at us at the hospital?
Soon to be divorcee like your sister?
Because I fucked you over. There's nothing sinister going on. Mark didn't know she was your sister.
Yeah, okay, I can understand. You really think she's going to do that? She might hate you, but she's not that spiteful, is she? She would still respect your privacy. That's us, not Mark. Maybe you should start wearing one of those cup things.
Ooh, good point. I should go party it up in a cocktail bar.
I'm not thinking sinister. I'm just thinking about other stuff. Exactly, which meant he might have been more inclined to... have fun with her.
I'm walking out on her when I told her I loved her and she's pregnant with my kid. What would you do? It could be everyone. He's trying to protect her. It's a miracle I still have my balls anyway.
You should spend some time with her. And be thankful you aren't about to be a two-time divorcee like me.
Can you give him some credit please? I just told you he was fucked up. He wouldn't do that.
What if we stay away and she falls apart again, like last time? Leaving her is probably why he hates us.
Actually, I don't think it falls anything to any of the realms when we can't remember it. It was just an error.
Yeah, but you and me are still married. Plus there's everything with Ali. He probably just panicked it was a conflict of interest. Freaked out was probably too strong a description. He just seemed taken aback, but he wasn't feeling well so his head was probably all over the place.

I also need to tell you something.

Mark was Fi's lawyer for her divorce. I saw her file in his box.

on Friday, 4 September 2009 07:29 am (UTC)Oh, right, I forgot. Amnesia must be contagious.
Really? She hasn't said anything. I can't actually remember her meeting him.

Have you spoken to her? How is she after the divorce?

Hey, I give him lots of credit. Just doesn't explain why he freaked about her being my sister. She hasn't got cooties.
