    Expectations

    “How was your day?” Tina questioned.

    “I had a great day actually,” Bette said. “I signed an artist I’ve been working on for months.”

    “You’re positively glowing,” Tina said. “I thought something great must have happened.”

    The unspoken continued to hang between them. The Kiss. It had only taken place a week earlier, in Bette’s office. Tina had excused herself almost immediately after it had taken place, and left Bette wondering what the implications of her uncharacteristically impulsive move could be.

    Only that morning had she discovered her impulsiveness may have been well-timed.

    The call was unexpected, and Bette took it even though she was with an important client.

    “Hi, Bette,” Tina’s lilting voice came over the receiver. “I don’t want to bother you at work, but I didn’t know how else to reach you.”

    “It’s no bother at all,” Bette replied, her heart racing. “What’s up?”

    “I wanted to see if you’d like to…go for coffee or something.”

    Unbeknownst to Bette, Tina squeezed her eyes shut and held her breath as she asked the question. This was not a role she was accustomed to.

    “Sure,” Bette said immediately. “Did you have a day in mind?”

    “Are you busy after work today?” Tina asked.

    “That works for me actually,” Bette replied.

    In fact, today didn’t work at all, but Bette would make it work.

    They made arrangements to meet after their respective workdays and both spent the rest of the day wondering what might come of it.

    And here they both sat. Bette unsure of what brought them here. Tina, unsure of how to proceed. Tina forged ahead.

    “So I guess I have a little news,” she said, again, reaching for the water glass.

    “What’s that?” Bette asked.

    “I…um…broke up with Eric,” Tina said, unable to make eye contact as she spoke.

    Bette’s heart rate perceptibly increased at the tidbit of information.

    The silence lasted a moment before Bette found the words to respond.

    “A break up is never easy on anyone directly involved with it,” Bette replied. “I hope it hasn’t been difficult for either one of you.”

    “It was inevitable,” Tina replied. “But I think you know what spurred me to action.”

    “How about I hope I know what spurred you to action?”

    “I’m sorry I left your office so quickly last week,” Tina said. “You caught me off guard and I didn’t know how to react.”

    “I guess I wanted to catch you off guard,” Bette replied. “I didn’t want to give you a chance to think.”

    “Well, I had to give myself a chance to think,” Tina said.

    “And…?”

    Tina finally got the nerve to look Bette in the eye. “Would you like to come over for dinner on Friday night?”

    Bette smiled and nodded in the affirmative as a server approached their table.

    3. FYI I posted using the same font I always do, using my workhorse of a laptop – I’m not sure why it’s reading differently for people, but I can’t do anything to fix something that is, according to what I have to go on, not broken…sorry!
