Alicia walks in like a ray of light, and it's good to see that Alicia can still be happy, even if it's just pretense. Is this what she shows the world when she's trying not to worry about her father?
Grace gives her a wave, noting the lost expression. She's seen that before. People don't remember who she is half the time. Waitresses forget about the water or the fact that there is a woman in the back who hasn't been waited on in half an hour.
Alicia joins her at the table, and Grace smiles. "Hey."
Almost immediately, that smile vanishes. Did you find Doctor Morgan?
"Well, not exactly. She's on the run. They're after her, but at least in April their trail went cold on her. They hadn't found her. But that means she'll be hard for me to find too. I'm still working on that."
But you know, hey, it's not so bad. At least she's alive. At least she's not kidnapped. At least she's not your father.
Grace tries to smile again, to offer some hope to the young woman. "So I have some good news. The best news is that you are not in danger right now," she says, and her eyes scan around for sneaky waitstaff. "They don't know you're Awake. They do not care about you in the slightest so long as that's the case."
