The Set Up (21)
“Mom, I’m sorry,” Angelica admitted as they watched Bette go off to sulk. “Did I do a bad thing? … I just thought she was shy about her birthday, but I wanted you to know. Because you really like birthdays.”
“I know, hunny,” Tina agreed, leaning down a bit as she put her hand on Angelica’s shoulder. “And it was a nice thought, but I don’t think it’s me you should be apologizing to. If it’s Bette’s birthday, and she doesn’t wanna make a big deal out of it, then that’s her choice, wouldn’t you say?”
Angelica groaned. “I guess.”
“You do what you think is right, okay? I’ll be in the cookbook section, okay? You can find me there, or I’ll come get you in a little while, okay?”
“Okay,” Angelica muttered, trudging over in the same direction that Bette had gone. When she found Bette, she peered down the aisle of books and spoke with purpose: “I’m sorry.”
“Whoa!” Bette gasped, nearly dropping the book resting on her arm. She finally took hold of it and brought it in near her chest. “You … scared me.”
“I just … wanted to say sorry …”Angelica started, fiddling with a sign on one of the shelves for 10% off the books as she tried to get her words out. Her difficulty with which had Bette smiling to herself – Angelica was being sincere. “I didn’t mean to … tell it was your birthday cause it … wasn’t really my place. K?”
Bette straightened up and stepped over to the girl, looking at her. “You didn’t know. I’m not mad.”
“Really?”
“Yes, but thank you for coming over here and saying that.” Bette looked up, “Did your mother put you up to this?”
“She … suggested it, yeah.”
Bette chuckled and leaned onto the same shelf, eyeing the sign that was already curling on one side. “I just hate for people to make a big deal out of my birthday, okay? It just frustrates me … like every year it just comes back to haunt me.”
“Cause you’re getting older?” Then Angelica paled. “Not … that you …”
“I know what you mean,” Bette laughed, gently moving her fingers over the spine of a book. “But no, it’s not about my age.” Angelica was just curious, and there was nothing wrong with that. “I’ve hated my birthday ever since I was a kid, okay?”
