I Fall Behind pt.13
Bette kicked off her heels and watched them fall
side by side in the grass of someone’s lawn. Well, Bette thought, that
settles it. I’m going to become a homeless person. I need to find a
shopping cart, some gloves, and a scarf.
At that moment, a car came screeching to a halt a
few feet away from where Bette stood. The driver’s side door sprung
open and Kit flew out. Bette involuntarily cringed at the furious
expression on her sister’s face.
“Bette Porter get your ***** in the car!” Kit was
speaking soft and low, almost hissing. Bette bit her lip and bid
goodbye to her dream of escaping into a life on the streets. She
compliantly ducked into the passenger side of Kit’s car.
“What’s gotten into you, huh?! James almost gives me
a heart attack, calling me to ask when you’re coming back! Coming back!
I said, ain’t my sister right there in your gallery? What ‘s that boy
talking about? Why did you leave and where have you been?”
Bette cowered slightly into the seat as she listened
to Kit’s outburst. “Nothing, Kit.” She couldn’t speak past a mumble.
“Speak up girl!” Kit gripped the steering wheel
tight as she tried to calm down. She tried again. “Bette, tell me. What
happened?”
Bette stared out the window. She realized that she’d
wandered into a nice quiet street, lined with big gated homes. She used
to want to live in such a street, in such a house, but now she knew
that was only a dream. Bette Porter, the idiot currently riding in her
big sister’s car and getting a stern talking-to, would never be able to
buy a house of her own.
Kit glanced at her sister’s profile and sighed sadly. Kit, you just made it worse didn’t you?
“Okay Bette. It’s okay. You tell me when you’re
ready.” Another deep sigh. “Where do you want me to drop you off?”
Bette wanted to say ‘drop me off right here and I’ll
just find me a nice hollow and build a nest’ but instead she mumbled,
“Please take me to my apartment, Kit.”
Upon reaching the apartment, Kit followed Bette up.
She stared as Bette went into her bedroom and some minutes later
emerged wearing a robe. “Kit, could you just let yourself out? I’m
going to take a shower. And… thank you.”

Bette is really ill. I’m so sorry for my earlier flippancy. BTW “True Colors” – great song! check out ‘The Body Acoustic’, Cyndi Lauper’s new album. It’s great! Amazon has it (hint). Thanks for moving this story from the surreal to the sublime. Tina as Judy Holiday, the hooker with the heart of gold.
