so, hier der neue Teil 
âMom??â âYes, hello Lorelaiâ âHowâs Dad? Is he okay?â âWell, it certainly is nice to hear your voice other than at Christmas or Easter or my birthday. I hope Iâm not interfering with your busy l-â âMother, focus, please!â she hissed into the telephone, not really feeling up to a debate with her mother about the fact that she had cut them out of her life completely (and that for a good reason, too) âYour father is fineâ Lorelai breathed a sigh of relief âTheyâll be releasing him tomorrow and he has to follow a diet.â âSo do you want me toâ¦.stop by the hospital?â âReally? Could you? Could you find the time in your busy life to visit your father in the hospital? No thanks, Lorelai, your father needs rest and you paying him a visit would only upset him more. Goodbyeâ
It clicked and all Lorelai heard was the dialing tone. She rubbed a hand over her tired and aching eyes
Why canât my parentâs be like Lukes? They support him in whatever he does and would never tell him what to do with his life. Or show him that theyâre unhappy about your choicesâ¦.
She told Charlie to bring her home immediately and collapsed onto her bed the second the got back home. Back to her castle. Back to being the lonely princess waiting for her prince.
Why do princesses never screw up relationships? Maybe thatâs just the part they conveniently left out of the fairy talesâ¦.
When she opened her eyes the next day she felt a littleâ¦. lost. And that not only because she hadnât slept in her own bed in a looong time, but because her bed was huge. It wasnât king sized, or queen sized, it was emperor-sized! As she lay there tangled in her sheets she tried to find out why she had this tugging sensation in her stomach or the pressure in her chest⦠Not being able to find a reason she scrambled out of bed but tangled herself even more in the covers, lost her balance and fell out of her bed onto the floor with a loud squee and a âthudâ. âOw, man that hurtâ she rubbed her behind. Then she got up and walked into the kitchen, rubbing her eyes sleepily. She popped some pop-tarts into the toaster.
âMaâam, I can do this for you, just sit down and read the morning paperâ Startled, Lorelai turned around and saw her maid standing there; she wasnât used to the fact that other people did things for her, Luke had taught her that she had to do things on her own.
âNo itâs alright Eliza, go take the day off, have a little funâ she waved her off and turned to the counter again. She filled up the coffee pot with water, put it into the coffee maker, took out some coffee powder, put it into the filter and watched the coffee as it dripped down slowly into the pot. What is wrong with me today? Iâm feeling really crabby and cranky, just wanna yell at everybody and everythingâ¦.
She took out her favorite mug and took the now full coffee pot to pour herself a cup.
Mhm coffee pot, coffee mug, coffee fix, coffee dealerâ¦.Luke
She gasped as her chest tightened and the coffee mug slipped out of her hand, shattering at her feet on the floor. As a dry sob escaped her lips she leaned on the counter for support and put her head against the cool surface of the kitchen cabinet. She gripped onto the edge of the counter as she sobs shook her body and the tears mingled with the spilled coffee on the sideboard.
Get a grip woman, for the love of God. You have and important meeting later today so knock it off! She blew her nose and dried her eyes, then went into the bathroom to take a shower and try to look presentable.
When she breezed into the office, her workers sensed that something was wrong immediately. The last weeks had been amazing, Lorelai was calm and supportive of new ideas, very much unlike the woman they knew and had feared for quite some time. It was like a vacation seeing her so relaxed around them, but now The Boss was back and everybody wondered who had spit in the Bossâs coffee this morning.
âJanet, get over here, I need to discuss something with you. What? Get off that phone and be in my office in 10 Minutes, I mean it! Gracie, Tylenol, right now, quick!â âYes maâam, your coffee and water are on your desk already as are the files you requested yesterday. Oh and this guy from Esprit called, he-â âA guy? Gracie, how often do I have to tell you to write down names when important people call?? Geez, I have to tell you everything, huh? Canât you think on your own, huh?â She scoffed and dropped down on her chair. Working would best take her mind off Luke for a while. Oh God, Luke. She quickly grabbed her coffee mug and took a sip. âOh my God!â she screwed up her face and spit the coffee back into the mug. âUgh, what the-â then she noticed the Starbuckâs sign on the mug and her heart sank. He had cancelled the coffee delivery to her.
Feeling the oh so familiar tickling in her nose as the tears announced themselves, she quickly took a few breaths, ignored the feeling of someone poking her heart with a sharp stick and got up for her meeting. She poured the coffee into one of her plants and decided that she had to go without coffee. And Luke. She had lost two of the most important things in her life within 24 hours. Way to go Lorelai. She straightened her shoulders and boldly walked out of her office towards the conference room. Plastering a smile on her face for her customer, she extended a hand and greeted them professionally, forgetting all about her emotional distress as she switched into business-autopilot.
