courage to change chapter six
Eric had called Tina several times in the last week. Each time they spoke, Tina gave one word answers and seemed distant. It wasn’t too uncommon for them to not see each other for days at a time due to the high demands of their work, but it was uncommon for the unspoken distance that grew each time they spoke.
The work week was crazy for Tina. It was easy for her to get lost in her work when she wanted time to pass quickly and this week was no exception. She had kept her distance from Eric this week for unknown reasons. Ever since she went out with Helena to Milk, it was as if she knew her relationship was pretty much over. She just didn’t have the courage yet to change it. Instead, she just continued on with the status quo.
It was Thursday afternoon when Tina received a text from Bette.
“Any chance you’re around for drinks after work today?”
It was the first time all week Tina smiled. She hadn’t realized it until her lips curled upward and a feeling of excitement passed through her. Her memory of Bette was pretty fuzzy from the alcohol she consumed last week. But she did want to figure out her mystery night and say thank you again for the ride home. Plus, Helena did mention that it seemed that Tina was flirting with Bette. Curiosity got the better of Tina, so she replied: “Sure, I get off around 7. Meet at The Planet at 7:30?”
“See you then :-)”, Bette texted back.
______________________________________________________________________
Bette walked into The Planet just before 7 and went up to the bar looking for her sister.
“Hey Jessie”, Bette greeted the bartender. “Kit around?”
“Hey you”, Jessie responded as she shook a martini shaker. “She’s in the back, but should be out soon. The usual?”
“Perfect”, Bette winked. “Thanks”.
As Bette sipped her Manhattan and waited for Kit to appear from the back, she tapped her foot nervously and started to doubt her motives for the evening. Why had she invited Tina for drinks? Maybe she wanted to apologize for putting the moves on an obviously straight woman…maybe she wanted to make a new friend…maybe, she wanted to explore the woman who could make her doubt her life in just a brief meeting?
