A Walk on the Wild Side – Chapter 23
Vual laughed once again, at the look on Bette’s face. “You are shocked because I have guessed, or because men are not usually so smart?” He asked. He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. “It is obvious how much you care for each other. I would have to be blind not to see it! Just promise me that you will make her happy”
Bette looked down at her hands, sighing deeply. “I don’t think I can make that promise, she said forlornly. “I think I have already broken it. We argued this morning when Tina told me that she wasn’t coming with me to the airport.”
Vual stopped the Land Rover, and looked over at Bette. “Tina asked me not to give this to you until we had arrived at the airport. Maybe it would be better if you received it now.”
Vual reached behind the front seats to retrieve a 12″ long tubular case. It was made of Metal, with a thick skin of leather covering it. It was battered and dented, the leather scuffed and faded in parts, and was obviously well used. Bette looked at Vual inquisitively. “It is a present for you” he explained.
Bette took the case from Vuals grasp, and slowly opened up the leather buckle at the top. She pulled the lid of the holder up, removing it completely. Inside the holder was a rolled up canvas, lovingly tied with a red ribbon. Tucked inside the ribbon was an envelope, which Bette slid from her surprise gift. As she looked, she couldn’t help but notice the delicate artistic writing on the front. “Read this before opening”
Bette opened up the sealed envelope, and removed an A5 piece of paper.
My Darling Bette,
I have never been good with words. I have always relied on my work to speak for me.
Please forgive me for not having the strength to say goodbye to you.
You already have my heart, and in a month the rest of me will follow.
Until then I will miss you more than I can say.
Tina
Bette took the one end of the red ribbon between her thumb and forefinger, and carefully pulled, slowly untying the bow. She took the ribbon and put it carefully into her top pocket before slowly unfurling the canvas.
