Phobia (Chapter 3)
Carmen-
Tell me this wasn’t unexpected.
“Uh,” Al’s voice shook as she stood up. “I’m not sure if this is the part where I leave or if I should start hiding everything that can be thrown and broken.” My first thought was to turn and run, but then I remembered that I’d be following in Shane’s footsteps, so I stood my ground and waited for her to make the first move but she was having trouble searching for words and Alice was growing nervous; I think we all were by this point. “I’m going to make coffee.” Alice carefully strode into the kitchen while my resolve to stay was rapidly deteriorating and my heart rate was skyrocketing.
“Carmen, I-”
“Save your excuses for someone else, Shane.” Anger was radiating from me in waves, yet I tried to act impassive. “I’ve already heard all of them.”
Since I’d forgotten why I came over to Al’s in the first place, I picked my keys up off the floor and turned to go, but Shane was determined to make it even more difficult by the way she sprang to her feet and blocked my path. “Hate me all you want. I deserve it.” She paused when I looked away, focusing on a pile of books rather than her pleading eyes. “But I never meant to hurt you.”
“That makes perfect sense.” I was losing my cool and mocking her words. “ ‘Hey, I didn’t mean to hurt you so ditched you on our wedding day and ran away to someplace nobody could find me, leaving you at the altar, humiliated and crushed.’ Oh wait, that doesn’t make sense!” By now, my voice had reached higher decibels and remaining calm was a foregone conclusion.
“That’s not what I meant-”
“Then why don’t you say what you mean for once in your fucking life?!”
She was growing equally frustrated. “I would if you gave me the chance.”
Our feud was put on hold when Alice reappeared from the kitchen only to grab her keys. With her hand on the doorknob, she briefly turned back. “Shane, you can stay here tonight if you want; I’m going out.” And with that she left. But before the fight started again she opened the door again and gave one final statement. “Please, don’t break anything.” When she shut the door, guilt played on my conscience for having a verbal predicament with Shane in front of Alice.
