And I had to practically vie for your attentionyou spent all those hours in the frigid librarywith those bookish chicks now I knew why you dumped me!

Ha-ha I couldnt marry a guy named Lazaro!

No really I was left wondering if there was something wrong with me or if I was boring or something

Lazaro you were not boring, it was me it was life it waswellit was my whole being you know, I could not go on thinking these feelings would go away when I had them since ten..I learned to be true to myself and luckily you were so nice about it you know, a lot of men would be bitter

Ah well now you make me sound like a saint

No really

Thats good cause I felt, well I felt like punching someone at first but I didnt want to be hypocritical cause I was always an advocate of being true to oneselfthis is the only life we get for ***** sake

As she walked back to her Saab Bettes mood was greatly improved. Lazaro always did have that effectmaking Bette feel good about herself. Suddenly Bette threw her empty coffee cup in the garbage. God life can be such a ***** but she was so much luckier than a lot of people. And Bette, holding her head high, thought.Im helping to put Haywood awaygoddammitim doing some good in the world.
