Dana – yeah I’ll be fine, im kinda tired im just going to have a lazy morning don’t worry about me.

Alice – ok I better go if im going to get through London on the tube at rush hour

Dana – tube?

Alice – underground, subway, its hectic but a lot quicker than by car or bus.

Dana – oh

Alice – pass me that underground map will you Dane, im a little rusty, thanks ok I have it figured circle line , Liverpool street to Aldgate, got it.

Dana – you sure

Alice – yep, right ok I’ll see you later

Dana – see you later Al.

Just as Alice turned to leave, Dana said Al

Alice turned and smiled at Dana, Dana walked up to her, cupped her cheek in her hand kissed her lips

Dana – good luck Al

Alice – thank you

Alice walked down the road towards the tube station as Dana waved her off.  Dana went back into the kitchen and cleared away the breakfast things and then headed for the shower.  After her shower she headed back downstairs and into the kitchen. She made herself a coffee and sat at the kitchen table, she looked around the room and spotted the TV she turned it on in the hope of finding a sports channel, just something to take her mind off missing Alice so much already.  She turned on the TV but wasn’t prepared with what greeted her.
