Bette’s Loss and Gain (Part Six)
“When she’s done with you or when you’re sick of your experiment—which ever comes first, don’t come crawling back to me. I’m not going to be your damn fall back. You understand that? You know where I stand. I thought we shared the same values. Fidelity is the most important thing to me in a relationship.”
“I thought honesty was,” Bette said softly.
“Honesty and fidelity! Okay?!” He glared at her.
Bette stood. “I’m being so honest with you. It’s tearing me apart cause I love you. I love you. I love you, Ash.”
“That kind of love I can do without. ***** it, Bette and ***** you. Don’t call me, don’t come by. You’re history with me.”
Ash grabbed his gloves off the bench and stuffed them in his pocket as he made for the exit, leaving his ex-girlfriend standing next to their favorite sculpture, and staring sadly at the slowly closing door.

Bette’s hand covered her mouth and she stared at Alice.
“What’s wrong?”
“I keep repeating the same mistakes.” Bette sighed.

Bette drove back to Guilford. She was crying all the way over there and in the driveway she spent some time trying to pull herself together. She dabbed her eyes with a facial tissue, reached into her purse and found her lipstick and reapplied it. Still, she didn’t feel that she was presentable. Bette pushed the seat back, then engaged the tilt switch, lowering the seat to nearly flat. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
An hour later, she was startled awake by someone knocking at the fogged over window.
“Whu…” Bette jerked up.
“Bette, how long have you been out here?” Gail said over the wind. “Bette, are you all right? Bette? Open the door,” she said frantically.
Instead of opening the door, Bette wiped her jacket sleeve across the window so she could see out.
“You, okay?” Gail’s hands rested on her knees and she was bent over, peering into the car. “Do you want to come in?”
Bette nodded and opened the door. Gail helped her out. “How long have you been out here?”
