34: Ready?

Davie settled into her office easily. The quietness of the building over break was refreshing and welcoming. She worked steadily for a couple of hours lost in her work. When Davie stopped in a moment of reflection she was slightly surprised and disappointed that she had not heard from Belle. Davie opened up her phone software.

Belle looked down at her phone. A familiar number appeared. "Hello? Davis?"

"Hello Belle! How are you feeling?"

"I'm okay Cher, Mama is helping and I've been coping pretty well. The shop is spotless."

Davie laughed lightly,"That's great Belle! Are you still there? Are you ready to be done for the day?"

"Oui, still here. If being done for the day means being with you, yes I'm ready!"

"What do you think about coming to the labs?"

"What do you mean Cher? Now?"

"Yes. Now. We got distracted today and I have a video file I want to share with you. We have some technology here we use to view lab sessions. Big screens, I can slow down and manipulate the video easily."

Mirabelle hesitated, she wasn't sure where Davis was going with her request and she didn't want to be a subject in her lab. "Oh. Okay. Video?"

"A home video, Mirabelle. My voice."

"Jesus, Davis." The thought of hearing Davie's voice had Belle immediately spinning. "Oui, please. I forgot!"

"Me too. You are a wonderful distraction."

Mirabelle shook with pleasure and anticipation. "I'm on my way!"

Davis laughed with delight. "I'll text you the address. See you soon."

Belle walked into the lobby of Davie's building pausing a moment to locate the elevators.

Dr. Wright glanced up as he approached the doors and was surprised to see a beautiful and familiar woman taking in the space. He stepped past her but then turned back drawing her attention."Hello? Can I help you, miss? Do we know each other?"

Belle saw a crisp image of herself standing at the threshold of the building. "Oh! Oui! Thank you. I'm looking for Dr. Kaplan."

Nolan moved back to Belle,"Okay." Dr. Wright glanced at his watch. "I haven't seen her today ..."

Davie sitting behind a desk covered with paperwork.

"Oh she's here. We have a meeting."

Nolan nodded, examining her a little more closely. "Wait, you're the ice cream shop family, right? Cane and Cream?"

Cane and Cream, Davie, pictures, Delia, Belle.

Mirabelle laughed lightly. "Oui Cher! That's us! I'm Belle."

Nolan shifted into full flirt mode. "I almost didn't recognize you without your scoop!"

Belle working behind the counter.

"Ah yes, it's how most people identify me."

Nolan grinned, staring for a moment. "Oh, I'm sorry. Dr. Kaplan, right?"

Belle grinned back but at Dr. Wright's expense. His boyish images of both her and Davie were amusing.

"Please." Belle sighed lightly, the thought of Davis's voice waiting for her was intoxicating.
