“Would you step back through please, M’am.”
Bette
rolled her eyes, and turned around to pass through the metal detector
again. All clear. She walked to the end of the conveyor belt
and retrieved her keys and her bag with her phone tucked safely inside with the
voice mail symbol on.
Tina
pulled out and merged into the left lane.
At the first opportunity she made a U-turn. A minute later she saw blue lights in her
rear view mirror and watched as the two cars behind her pulled over and the
blue lights kept coming toward her. She
pulled over as she muttered a string of expletives. The exchange between Tina and the officer was
brief and to the point, yet it seemed to take forever. Tina was conscious of each second that ticked
by, but it also gave her time to realize that she needed a crucial piece of
information. When the officer returned
to her car, handed her the ticket and warned her to obey the traffic laws while
she was here in
you please tell me how to get to the airport?”
The
gate area was crowded. “Figures,” Bette
thought as she searched for a seat. Her
options were next to the gum popper, the whining toddler or the guy in the
track suit who’d already checked her out from head to toe. Twice that she saw. She sighed and walked to the window. The plane was already at the gate, they’d be
boarding soon anyway. She thought about
the ride home in another taxi and the dark, empty house that would greet
her. She sighed and thought maybe she’d
call Kit and see if she could pick her up at the airport. She’d be interrogated and lectured, but at
least she would not be alone. She opened
her bag to find her phone just as the announcement for boarding began.
Tina ran to the “Departures” monitor just in time
to see Bette’s flight number disappear.
“Fuck!” She threw her fist down. “Fuck.”
She said again.
“I’m the one with no luggage and no ride home.”
