I Fall Behind pt.18
”You know what Alice? You’re right. We should
probably wait until dinner is at least served…” Bette looked down at
her shoes. Then, for the second time that week, she kicked them off,
“… but we’re not going to. Let’s go Alice, I’ve got a woman to woo.”
And convince that I’m not a total ***** all the time, Bette silently
added.
”Oh wow Bette! You’ve grown balls!” Alice exclaimed.
They finally spotted a valet attendant and flagged him over. A few
minutes later, Bette’s Saab squealed to a stop in front of them.
”Hey easy there buddy!” Bette snatched the keys from the valet’s hand. “This isn’t the Indy 500!”
”Come on Bette! Stop ***** around. Get in the car!”
Bette jumped into the Saab and carefully eased down
the driveway. Alice looked at her incredulously. “Don’t you want to go
a little faster?”
Bette nodded but kept the speed at 30. “Don’t worry
Alice, I know what I’m doing. Studies have shown that more people get
into accidents when they’re rushing than when they’re not.”
”Duh, genius!”
”Shut up. People who drive faster have less
probability to reach their destinations. I would rather drive at a
sensible speed and get to Tina’s house, than drive fast and never get
there.”
Alice’s mouth fell open but she wisely kept silent.
Okay Bette, she thought, find refuge in your geekiness for now. You’re
gonna need all the courage you can muster later on when you eat crow.
Alice knew she probably shouldn’t feel gleeful, but she has never seen
Bette do anything this brave. Crazy, she’s seen a lot of. But never
brave. Alice could’ve applauded if she wasn’t sure that Bette would
swerve at the sudden sound.
Bette kept her eyes trained on the light-speckled
road in front of her. What was she doing? She was driving at a
reasonable speed to the home of a woman she shouldn’t be seeing
anymore, to apologize for something she felt she was justified to do.
”Alice, am I doing the right thing?” Bette asked
quietly. Her hands were tight on the steering wheel and Alice could see
how her knuckles had turned white.
Alice thought for a moment what to say to her
friend. She allowed the sight of trees whizzing by to make her a little
bit dizzy. Finally, when she thought Bette was going to explode from
sheer anxiety, she started laughing.
