Some Christmas – Part 4
Tina could see that wasn’t true, but she left it alone for now.
Later on at dinner, Tina kept trying to fill the silences that fell with chit-chat. She was unsuccessful in drawing Angie and Bette into a conversation and was about to give up and let silence envelop the table when she remembered the tickets.
“Oh, I almost forgot. I got some tickets to The Nutcracker this afternoon!”
“You did?” Angie asked, with a smile growing on her face.
“I did.” Tina glanced at Bette. “I thought maybe we could all go.”
“I thought you forgot about it after I asked you,” Angie said before Bette could reply. “I can’t wait to go!”
“Well to be honest, I did forget,” Tina said. “I mentioned it to Joel and he’s the one that bought the tickets.” The words were out of Tina’s mouth before she realized she’d stepped in it.
“Oh…” Angie said.
Tina looked over at Bette, who was stonefaced and taking a long swallow of wine.
Tina set her fork down with a clatter. “Enough, already! So I forgot and Joel remembered. What difference does it make?” She could hear the exasperation in her own voice but she couldn’t help it. She was sick of walking on eggshells when she had done nothing wrong.
“Excuse me,” Bette said, standing up from the table. She took her plate into the kitchen and left Angie and Tina sitting there alone.
Angie looked totally dejected, so much so that Tina couldn’t help but try cheering her up.
“You can wear your new blue dress, sweetie. And we’ll go to any restaurant you like for dinner. How would that be? We’ll even go back to Rockefeller Center and see the tree. Would you like that?”
Angie nodded and looked a little less upset, but her eyes still looked sad. Tina could tell she was reacting to Bette getting up and leaving the table.
“May I be excused, too? I want to read my book.”
“Sure, sweetheart. Go ahead on up to your room. I’ll be up in awhile.”
