The Set Up (21)
“Alright.”
“Hey, why don’t you go find something on dolphins?”
“I know a lot about them already.”
“You never know what you’ll find … I bet there are some chapter books on them, too.”
The invitation had Angelica hurrying around the place while Bette just smiled, and tucking the book she’d been looking at under her arm so she could find Tina. She had to smile when she found her in the cooking section. “A five-star chef you are.”
Tina was a little startled because she hadn’t expected Bette to come see her so quickly, but her smile quickly took over her expression. “Hi.” It was a warm, glowing smile. “I’m really sorry about in the car. I just …”
“No, it’s okay. I’ll admit it too – it was funny that Angelica knew.” As Bette spoke, she slowly moved forward. “That girl … amazes me, I must say.”
“You and me both,” Tina chuckled, “But I really wish I had known. When is it? … Your birthday, I mean.”
“Tomorrow.”
“What?” Tina asked, lowering her tone when she realized how loud she’d just been. “I mean … tomorrow?”
“I just … always hated my birthday. Long story short, my parents always argued about it, and the whole atmosphere surrounding my birthday just gave me resentment toward the stupid day. So yeah. Now I just can’t wait to be over with it. It’s something I must endure, at best.”
Bette had tried to enjoy her birthday before, but it always seemed to be the most horrible day she could imagine, filled with empty promises of joy and moments of false affection. Bette slowly let her eyes travel to the floor, picking out the different tones of the sandy-colored carpet.
“Hey,” Tina said quietly and tenderly, lifting her hand to Bette’s face. “I won’t make a big deal out of it if you don’t want, okay?”
Bette nodded, looking down when Tina gestured to her book.
“What’s that?”
“Murder mystery.”
“Oh no,” Tina laughed, “Another killer on the loose?”
“Oh yes. This one sounds extra mysterious.”
They teased each other for a while before Angelica met up with them again, having chosen two books she was fascinated with. She usually didn’t pick anything, but they were reasonably-priced and educational, so Tina told Angelica she could get them. She teasingly said the same to Bette, but Angelica took the book in her hands, and said she wanted to pay for it.
