Phobia (Chapter 4)
“Okay.” She snickered at my comment and continued disrobing the tree. When she was all done, it was something less than pleasant, but it wasn’t as awful as it had been before. “So, I heard Shane was back.”
I wasn’t surprised that everyone else already knew; word gets around pretty fast in our circle of dysfunctional friends. “Yeah, she is.”
“Is she going to live with you?”
Re-entering the room with two mugs in hand, she graciously accepted her hot tea while I took a sip of my coffee. “I guess so. Besides someone has to take over the lease when I move out.”
It was too late to take back what I’d said as she almost choked on her drink. “You’re moving?”
“No, no. Of course not; I just meant that if I can ever find a more affordable apartment closer to work then she could take over the lease on this place.” She was noticeably relieved, as was I, but I was also mad at myself for almost spilling the truth. “So, how are you holding up?”
Rather than get depressed like she usually did when someone asked her that, she passed it off easily. “I couldn’t be better.”
“Really?”
She smiled in confirmation before turning her attention back to the tree. “Are you having any success with getting over Dana?”
With the way everybody saw right through me when it came to her and Lara, I always thought maybe I was transparent; yet my answer never changed. “I’m definitely over her.”
Another lie.
“You know I don’t believe that, but for now I’ll pretend that I do.”
“Awe, thank. I knew you trusted me.” I rolled my eyes in sarcasm before staring at the tree again; maybe if I looked at it long enough it would start to look healthier.
“Do you have any scissors?”
I was confused and slightly nervous. “Why do you need scissors? I mean, it may not look like the greatest tree in the world but that doesn’t mean you have to kill it.”
She wasn’t amused. “You left the tags on the ornaments so I’m going to cut them off; Just like my mom cut me off from her money.” It was hard to tell if she was making a joke out of it.
With a breath of relief, I pointed to the drawer of the small dresser which the desk lamp was resting on. She walked away to get the scissors as I continued talking. “This tree is hopeless; even Jenny could’ve done a better job than me and she has the worst taste in fashion.” I was expecting for her to either laugh or scold me for not being nice, but when I didn’t hear anything I turned back to look at Helena, who was deeply puzzled and holding something in her hands that wasn’t scissors.
“What is this?”
When I realized what she was holding, the coffee dropped out of my hands and my heart rate peaked at new levels.
Great, she had found my plane ticket.
