“What are you going to do?”

“I’ll stay with her for a few more days and help her get settled in her home. I talked to the doctor. He’s still waiting for the test results to see whether they got it all. They think they’ll need to follow up with chemotherapy treatments.”

There was nothing Dana could say.

“I miss you,” Jeff said.

“I miss you, my dearest. I have some Christmas presents for you.”

“Hold them for me.”

“I will.”

“Are you wiped out from all the traveling?”

“Not yet.”

“Make sure you leave your cell phone turned on,” Jeff said. “I plan to make some obscene phone calls.”

Dana smiled. “Promise?”

“Promise. Take care of yourself, darling.”

“You, too.” The conversation was over. Dana hung up and sat there for a long time, thinking about Jeff and Rachel. She got up and went into the kitchen.

Mrs. Daley was saying to Kemal, “More pancakes, darlin’?”

“Yes, thank you.”

Dana stood there watching the two of them. In the short time Mrs. Daley had been there, Kemal had changed so much. He was calm and relaxed and happy. Dana felt a sharp pang of jealousy. Maybe I’m the wrong person for him. Guiltily, she remembered her long days and late nights at the television studio. Maybe someone like Mrs. Daley should have adopted him. She shook herself out of it. What’s the matter with me? Kemal loves me.

Dana sat down at the table. “Still enjoying the new school?”

“It’s cool.”

Dana took his hand. “Kemal, I’m afraid I’m going to have to go away again.”

He said indifferently, “That’s okay.”

The pang of jealousy came back.

“Where are you off to now, Miss Evans?” Mrs. Daley asked.

“Alaska.”

Mrs. Daley was thoughtful for a moment. “Watch out for those grizzly bears,” she advised.
