. with amy almost in my laop i was officially more uncomfortable than i'd already been - something i hadn't considered possible .
i waited for someone else to ask the obvious question . no one did . i said ." why ? why did you feel a need to call lisa ?"
mel seemed to think her answer was obvious ." after i saw the clip that jack's partner had posted on youtube , i felf lisa should know "- mel flicked a glance at jules -" exactly whose baby she was carrying i would wanted to know ."
jules's face reminded serene as her partner revealed her role in the recent events . mel's story about calling lisa wasn't news to jules .
i didn't know eric's story . or lisa's story . i didn't even know all of merideth's . i didn't know what was best for any of them . when i was mel's age , though , i'd felt some certainty about other people's lives . looking back , it turned outy that i'd been wronong a lot . someday mel would discpoover that she was wrong a lot too .
it had been only hours earlier that sam was explaining to me that people are complicated . but usually in uncomplicated ways . for even more uncomplicated reasons . getting to the point where i accepted my ignorance about people and their complications had taken a lot of experience . mel was still young . she had plenty of time to get there .
"what 's on youtube ?" amy asked .
i was wondering the same thing . i suspected that i was about to hear a versions of the story thjat merideth was so eager to tell me concerning the dark vodeo i'd seen before i'd been summoned to the valley .
mel explained the story of hpow the video vignette from the grand canyon ended up on youtube , the tale wasn't nefarious . jack had rewcently been seeing a guy who was fascinated by an old collectiion of video clips from what jack callled his " brief , tortured docudrama phase ." jack's romantic partner had thought the world should have a chance to see the archive of nearly a year of his lover's life .he called them " jsack 's short films . " the guy had uploaded almost twenty clips to youtube from half a dozen different old smartdish .
