Letting Go – chapter nine
‘Whoa, snap out of it, what are you thinking?’ Bette’s eyes widened and she felt the shame creep through her cheeks as they turned pink filled with embarrassment.
That smirk didn’t go unnoticed by Jamie, “You freak, you’re thinking dirty thoughts aren’t you?” Jamie shouted.
Bette’s eyes were still on the mirror, but she had focused them out and started rolling her eyes in several directions while all she said was “No…”
Jamie took Bette’s expression as a “yes,” and said “Alright, that means you’re going!! I’ll call you Friday night, and you better not fake on me!”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
After Bette’s hair appointment with Jamie, she definitely felt more relaxed. The inches that Jamie trimmed off Bette’s hair were like inches of stress being chopped off. Bette felt lighter as the tranquility seeped into her body and into her mind. Talking to Jamie would make anyone feel better, and she did just that for Bette.
Of course the feeling wouldn’t last, as soon as Bette walked into the door of her apartment, guilt struck her, and the burden on her shoulders wore her down. There he was, Eric, sitting right there on her couch talking to her sister.
‘***** great,’ Bette let out a sigh as she noticed her inner thoughts, but she had to force a smile and say “Hi Eric, it’s nice to see you again.”
Eric quickly stood up from the couch and walked towards the door to greet Bette, “Hi Bette, it’s nice to see you too.”
“Hey sis,” Kelly waved from the couch.
For the last year, Kelly had done administrative work at her father’s law firm during breaks. While working, she and Eric had become friends, and the more Kelly got to know him, the harder she fell for him. He truly was a great guy, the whole package. However, Kelly didn’t stand a chance, because he was in love with Tina, and only Tina.
Who the ***** is his mystery girlfriend, no one in the office had ever seen her, and she never seemed to call him. What the ***** kind of relationship did they have? Tina, that ungrateful *****, she had such a great man right in front of her, and she didn’t ever seem like she cared. If Eric were Kelly’s boyfriend, she would never treat him that way.
“Well,” Eric continued, “I was just getting ready to leave, See you tomorrow Kelly, and it was nice seeing you again, Bette. You two have a great night.”
Just like that, Eric walked out the door. As he closed the door and was no longer in sight, Bette had wished that he had taken her guilt with him, but he didn’t. This was only Bette’s second encounter with Eric, yet, she felt his sincerity and kindness. Of course Tina was in love with him.
How on earth could she come face to face tomorrow with Tina, and then face Eric? She couldn’t do it, but she couldn’t resist either. There was that game of tug-of-war pulling and pushing at the same time, neither side willing to suffer defeat, therefore, meaning everything was in Tina’s control.
“What was he doing here?” Bette asked as she put her keys down on the counter by the door and tossed her coat on the couch while walking towards her room.
“We were just chatting,” Kelly’s voice was filled with hopelessness.
“About what?” Bette asked from her bedroom while she was changing.
“He’s going to propose to Tina.” Kelly’s voice now filled with admiration for Tina as she spoke.
“WHAT?!?!” Bette shouted.
‘Propose? Did I hear that right?‘
