The garden is still under construction. But I thought of you the minute I found out about it.

I'm doing much better.

A gift, you say?

[locked] apennyworth August 19 2009, 04:04:31 UTC

I see. Perhaps, I may offer my assistance.

I am very pleased to know that you are doing better. I was concerned.

And, yes. A gift. I was carrying my wallet, you see. I thought you might like a few of the pictures I have. One of them has a very lovely young lady in a yellow dress, standing next to her best friend.

They could not ask for a better pair of hands.

I know you were. I apologize for worrying you.

You - [a few words completely blacked out] Oh, Alfred. You still have that picture?

[locked] apennyworth August 19 2009, 04:19:20 UTC

That is kind of you to say.

There is nothing to apologize for, my dear.

Of course I do. I certainly did not mean to upset you. I thought that a happy memory might be a nice thing to see at the moment.

[locked] rattle_thecages August 19 2009, 04:22:21 UTC

You haven't upset me, I promise.

I remember that picture. I remember that day. I always will.

Thank you, Alfred.

Thank you.

[locked] apennyworth August 19 2009, 04:25:35 UTC

I hope not.

You are very welcome. ...I thought you would remember that day. It was a wonderful day.

[locked] rattle_thecages August 19 2009, 04:27:57 UTC

It was. It was a very wonderful day.

I can't believe it was so long ago. I just pray he is all right.

How are you?

[locked] apennyworth August 19 2009, 04:35:12 UTC

It does not seem all that long ago to me. Although, I close my eyes and see you and Master Bruce covered in mud, asking for cookies.

As do I.

I am fine. I have issued myself a task, and I am working to prepare some proper suits for...Master Bruce.

...This can be quite confusing at times, I must admit.

[locked] rattle_thecages August 19 2009, 04:41:36 UTC

It was because of him we always ended up covered in mud, it must be stressed.

I know. It's confusing to me, too.

Every time I see Bruce here, there's that moment, that split second where I think it's him. And it is but at the same time it's not.

He knows you, though. And he needs you.

[locked] apennyworth August 19 2009, 04:49:34 UTC

I am well aware, my dear.

I believe I understand, although I do think it must be very difficult for you. It is very different than losing someone, is it not? It must be very much like losing someone over and over again. I am sorry for that.

I know, and I shall be here for him.

[locked] rattle_thecages August 19 2009, 04:57:02 UTC

We were going to lose each other regardless.

You will.

[locked] apennyworth August 19 2009, 05:11:54 UTC

... I find it difficult to agree with you, however true this may be.

Yes.

[locked] rattle_thecages August 19 2009, 05:30:01 UTC

It isn't easy for me, either.

Thank you for the picture, Alfred. I'll make a copy so you may keep the original.
