I'm a writer.

Alexis is real.

That much I'm sure of.

...everything else I--the beautiful brunette--clever, quick witted, reads comic books, brave and yet so vulnerable. I think I made her up.

I know I made her up.

I think I've made everything up.

[For about ten minutes Alexis might be in her room crying. But once her eyes are dry, her face isn't flushed and the puffiness is gone, she walks into the living room, sits down on the couch next to her dad, and just snuggles in quietly against his side.]

I love you, Dad. That's real too.

I know. [He wraps his arms around her tightly and kisses the top of her head] I love you too, Baby Girl.

It's going to be okay. I'll--it'll be okay.

[His reassurances aren't very reassuring right now. But in front of people, Alexis can put on a strong front and keep the tears from flowing again and keep her voice steady. Yesterday she's had an off day but today everything was back to normal, all those emotions locked away and instead her taking charge of the situation at hand.]

Yeah, why don't I make you some coffee. Okay?

Coffee sounds good. [he nods a little at that. he's at a loss to know how to behave right now.] I should work on the book. [Only he can't really remember what he's working on]

[Alexis busies herself with making coffee. Coffee should help. Something warm to sip at.]

Maybe you should start a new book.

I suppose I could. My other one is mostly notes, half finished scenes and ideas. That sort of thing.

Then there's no harm in starting fresh and then going back to that one when you... feel like it.

[Or remember it, whatever the case may be.]

Worst case scenario I suppose I'll have the start of two books.

Always a plus. People wait in lines for your books, two of them in the works is a bonus to the literary world

My biggest fan. [He smiles at her a little bit sadly. he does remember that about her but it reminds him of all the things he doesn't remember as well.] Thank you, Honey.

[She brings him a freshly brewed steaming cup of coffee and sits next to him again. She leans over and kisses his cheek.]

You're welcome, Dad. I love you.
