    Broken Girls with Strange Frames (Ch. 27)

     

    5. She doesn’t mind talking about herself and when I ask her a question about her life or her family, she doesn’t (for example) roll her eyes and try to change the subject.

     

    So I liked her a whole lot for all the above reasons. I smiled at her. She smiled back.

     

    Okay, there were a few not-so-great things about her, too. Like:

     

    1. She has a gap in her teeth when she smiles which I think, if I got used to it, could be very cute, but right now, it’s not cute.

     

    2. I think her eyes are nice, but they’re not that nice because I think I like brown eyes right now.

     

    3. I don’t care how smart she is, she’s still an actress and I don’t think anyone should date their mother.

     

    4. She doesn’t seem to have any apparent interest in fine art, which is okay because of the aforementioned ridiculousness of visiting art galleries on Friday nights, but I think I would miss the art circuit just a little bit.

     

    5. There’s nothing wrong with designer labels. In fact, I think Gucci shoes are nice and you can’t buy all your clothes at thrift stores because that’s just crazy.

     

    6. Sometimes a little mystery is nice, Sarah! Just because I asked if you had any pets doesn’t mean you need to tell me your entire life story!

     

    7. Why is there a whistling sound whenever she talks? Is it because of the gap?

     

    8. Too pale. The weather has been beautiful lately, so she should go get a tan.

     

    9. The fact that she found me that charming when I was drunk implies that she doesn’t have enough confidence to hit on me when I’m sober and I like girls that are more confident. I think.

     

    10. Not arrogant, exactly. Just confident.

     

    11. Although, the right girl could probably pull arrogance off.

     

    12. Probably not Sarah, though.

     

    Puzzling.

     

    “Alice? The phone’s ringing.”

     

    “Oh,” I said, sitting up. I pointed at the TV. “All caught up in the movie, you know.”

     

    “I know,” Sarah said with a glassy-eyed stare at the screen.

    1. i don’t often comment on stories, but i just had to say how much i love this story, with so many excellent stories on this site yours stands out as one of the best. I look forward to your posts, please keep writing.

    2. Loved Alice’s list. When a perfectly good person just isn’t the person. Alice, I can relate.

      Bette is getting hers. Why aren’t I cackling with glee? Gosh, she’s human! And falling in love.

      Thanks!

    3. Girl, you are so fucking funny. GEEZ. Can’t get over it. And you nail these characters in such an original way. Not only do I get a real sense of the Alice I love, but also Bette, who you capture beautifully. And now Tina too–the image of her as Bette sees her, “having a fit,” is too perfect. It was what Tina meant to be doing when she pulled her jacket off in that lawyer’s office! Damn, they shoulda given Tina another shot at that one; even in baby blue, she coulda looked a lot tougher.

      Great story. Please keep writing!

      Love it. Keep writing.

    4. This story just rocks, plain and simple.

      The way that you get into Alice’s head, but at the same time get into Bette’s is astonishing.

      Taking the foibles that are common to all of us and bringing out into the open to be inspected without judgement is a gift.

      Fantastic story.

    5. Ole people are half human and half Hallmark CardsWhat does Old people start in yrs, Heck I might be old I did like Alices list. Bette is in trouble she wants Tina ,but nothing long term.

    6. Another great chapter – Alice’s list was funny and kind of heartbreaking.

      Your dialogue is amazing. Alice’s conversations with Bette are pitch perfect.

    7. Aliceisms that I learned today:

      Old people are only half-human and the other half is Hallmark card.

      [No]one should date their mother.

      Your Alice is SO Alice she makes me bipolar: I laugh and cry. Which definitely makes her no more or less Alice than that.

      And, in my right mind, I love your fic a lot. Cheers!
