I hold onto her as I go to sleep, glad I am with her but wishing things had worked out better with Cambridge, or just hadn't gone so far in the first place. But soon I fall asleep and don't care anymore...

"I know Tom. You are a good guy. Sorry about everything." Sie walks over to him and gives him a peck on the cheek. It isn't much, but it is something. Sie ushers him out of hir room and closes the door. Sie cries a little as sie reflects on the day and finally goes to sleep

Hir small peck does mean something to me, quite a bit in fact since it tells me sie does care. I change into some lighter clothes, feeling odd about the whole situation before I too go to bed on the couch.

Nea nodded her head. She wasn't proud for the same reasons but it really wasn't important. she was glad to see Antero happy and not as depressed again. Smiling her hand fell in his and she leaned up and gave him a peek on the cheek.

Jose smiled at Soledad.
"Maybe they're deperate for members. Anyways we should ask around and see what they all know about the current situation here. Also maybe they know what's going outside of the Congo since I've been pretty cut off from it."

Bonifaz recieves word from Rommel that he is to travel to Italy and meet with a small group of fascists there. He gets out of bed, wades through the mess of his apartment, and gets dressed for the day. He makes himself some breakfast and purchases some airfare to Rome. He isn't enthused about doing this for Rommel, and he figures that the chance Italy turning fascist right now is slim to none, but he doesn't want to disobey his father.
He drives himself to the airport, and after a short flight he checks into his hotel in Rome. He waits there to see if anyone from this fascist group will contact him. He assumes that Rommel informed them of his arrival.

"I guess we could get started working on the community garden." Antero suggests after he gives her a kiss on the cheek as well. He is never very affectionate and has some issues with intimacy.

"This weekend is fine... But I think I'll have my assistant get our tickets. Just in case the terrorists are still after you, which in my personal opinion is a very real possibility. Since terrorists are the type to hold grudges you know."
I say, as if I have regular conversations with terrorists and would know this better than anyone else before getting up to leave.
"See you then."
I kiss her cheek and half-wave as I make my way out of the door and back to the office, where insane amounts of paper work have manifested. Wonderful...

I am glad that he is getting the tickets, since he has more money than me anyway. I certainly have enough, but my income fluctuates depending on seminars and speeches I do.
I leave for my office and look over the same economic reports again.

I feel a little confused and afraid after my chat with Li. I am not sure who I can go to. Sakari knows about me, but he hasn't been around. I am not sure who else I can trust with my secrets. And just when I was starting to think that everything was imagined, and maybe my memories were unreliable, this happens.
But it could still be that I am losing my mind and this is just the latest development in that process.
I decide to go to Calithin's office. I have given up on the idea of trying to get back together again, so, I figure maybe I can just tell him what I know. Even though I am sure he will think that I am crazy, I feel like I have to tell someone. I think that is how it is when you are crazy, you just start telling the world the ideas you have in your head, that aluminum foil arm bands will save you from deadly radon gas being pumped into our homes by communist aliens or something like that.
I rush to his office, and wait outside to see if he has a moment.

I really don't have to work as much anymore. All I do now is provide the cleaning supplies and do laundry rather than clean rooms. People clean their own rooms. We just provide the supplies and help out with laundry. People don't even pay for the rooms, they just sort of show up and take rooms as they need them, turning the hotel into sort of a free hostel.
It's kind of nice.
With the extra time I have, I do some of the volunteer community stuff, like work on the garden. I do that for a few hours and return home, deciding to make lemon bars for everyone.

Lilia wakes up from a wonderful dream. She smiles and rubs her eyes. She sits up and looks around the room. It is empty and unfamiliar to her. She gets out of bed and puts on some of Helvi's clothes, thinking that they are her own. They are a little big on her, since Lilia is very tiny. She puts on a white dress and jeans underneith, then goes downstairs to see what's going on. The white dress reminds her of her wedding dress, if indeed she was married. In her imagination, she had a lovely white dress with a long train that went on forever. The colors of the wedding were red and pink, since she was married around Valentine's Day. This too could have been invented.
She goes downstairs and enters the kitchen, staring at Helvi.

"Oh hi Lilia, I see that you found some of my clothes. I guess if they fit you may as well wear them!" I say cheerily.
"So, did you have a nice sleep? I don't mind you sleeping in my bed. I slept pretty well on the couch."

Lilia doesn't understand a word that Helvi says, so she just smiles. She sees that Helvi is working on her wedding cake. She is so glad that she found a baker on such short notice. She smiles at Helvi and steps over to see how the cake is coming along.
"Lemon cake will be good. I was thinking white marble but you can make lemon cake." Lilia says to Helvi, looking into the bowl.
"Do you think that will be enough? It is a small bowl and I sent out over a hundred invitations."
