——by  Deerhapsody   Alan's cell phone rang.      It was an alarm clock that showed him having an appointment with a woman named Nova at five o'clock in the afternoon.      Linda didn't even make a fuss.        In fact, she is not completely without trouble.      She made trouble at least a dozen times, and every time Alan seemed to not hear the phone ringing, without explanation, blindly hugging her, cold tears flowed down her neck, along with Allen's mouth full of love.
