Every morning, he wakes up next to her, and spends most of the day with her following around while she saves the world, then at night, he gets the sound and view that only he is allowed to hear and see. You spoiled me." He smiled at his own words.
#Jurassic old habits die hard full
He pouted once at his phone - it has full of functions that he doesn't understand but he enjoyed it whenever Ellie tried to explain - and once at his photo. Ellie was running an errand, and he got a text from her 30 minutes ago that she will be arriving in 10 minutes. Now his photo is safely pinned on their fridge, as a reminder of how did they start. The three-dimensional Ellie was interacting with him, he can grab a moon if she wanted. Hell, he would have followed to the literal hell if she had asked him. Of course, he would follow her to Biosyn. Instead of a small bust shot photo of Ellie, the real version of Ellie is explaining soil science to him. And god damn it, has she somehow become more stunning than he'd ever imagined. He turned his eyes upon the photo, and he practically ran towards the photo and took it down as if she caught him while cheating on her. There was no way, that Ellie Sattler was in his tent. Maybe the cheap bourbon he had last night hasn't left his system. Maybe he pictured her so hard she became a real one. Of all the moments in his life, including his weird love affair with an old photo, this was the moment where Alan Grant doubts himself to be gone insane. Yes, he is making a joke to a 30-year-old photo, but Alan Grant hasn't gone insane, yet, anyway. If someone takes a look at this, they would immediately report me as a stalker.if that happens, can I blame you for at least half of the responsibility? It's not my fault that you still look spectacular." God knows when this photo was taken, but she certainly looked older than the photo on his cabinet (she has to, it's 30 years old), nevertheless she looked more beautiful. He kept it in his wallet as if Ellie were his wife, however, he wasn't even sure whether this photo was the recent one. Truth be told, he cut out the small photo of Ellie from her latest soil degenerated article next to the short introduction of an author. Well, a two-dimensional-30-years-ago version of Ellie. Again, Alan Grant hasn't gone insane.īy the time Alan celebrates 30 years in the dig, all he wanted to do was to talk to Ellie. Now he is confessing his love to the photo. Perhaps I would have been a tolerable father next to you. I have no doubt that you will be a great mother.

I'm happy that you finally have a decent family. "Not that I deserve you."ĭo you know how hard it was for me to not say 'I object to this marriage' at your wedding? "And I was a coward again." Please don't marry Mark, he doesn't deserve you. He laid his heart on the letter and rebutted himself out loud to the photo of Ellie. If it was too big to say out loud, because he knew his own words would wreck him, he wrote them in the letter. If his day was rather dull and trivial, he just talked to the photo version of Ellie, from how another grad student bothered him with a mistake to how tourists were lousy. After a dusty, busy, and repetitive day, he would take out a beer and sit in front of the photo. He mumbled, "who am I kidding, I have nowhere else to be without you, but the dig." He stared at the last sentence he wrote, then the photo of them on the filing cabinet. I thought I loved the dig, turns out, I just loved the dig with you. He had to admit that it wasn't even a love letter, it almost looked like a letter of complaints to the city hall, filled with how he hated the people in the dig without her. The time when the six-pack was empty, he was writing a letter to Ellie. When he could.Īlan came back to the tent annoyed by mundane things in his life without Ellie, so he pulled out a beer. Then Ellie would have answered with 'I always say I love you even though I know you will answer me with I love you too.' Then Alan would have said, 'because I truly do, I'm not faking that.' He should have just said, I love you too. Their daily routine included the conversation of why people ask the same question where they know they will get the same fake answer. He hated that question even before Ellie left him. His true answer was 'I am drowning by all your stupid questions, the love of my life just left me because I was an idiot, what do you think how am I doing', but he swallowed with a simple answer. He could sense the discarded half of the question 'after Ellie left you'.

He hated the question 'how are you doing'. Depending on one's judgment of a man talking to a photo.
