Lily Laughs

By Marci Martin

A young woman engaged in a conversation with a gravestone captures the imagination of Jake Pleasant. Each day as he waits for the bus, he sees her kneeling there and wonders why. An accident of destiny forces Jake to the bedside of the now comatose young woman, and misguided logic leads him to her diary. Through her writings, he discovers the tragedies of Lily's life and the obstacles she has overcome. He falls in love with the girl in the diary, admiring her resilience, strength and total dedication. He sympathizes with her, identifies with her and aches to protect her. When the diary reveals the reason she visits that grave every day, his obsession drives him to deceit. Lily's remembered truth fuels the destruction of Jake's fantasy, leaving him to recognize the existence of a powerful love beyond his experience or imagining.
