Vignettes: Chapter 21
Which one do you believe?
Bette sighed. I guess I believe the latter, though I want to believe the first.
Why not believe the first then?
If I do that, chances are Ill get hurt again. The second leaves out any possibility of pain.
Tina was impressed with Bettes candid conversation, and she was equally honest, careful to choose her words. Well, wouldnt it be hard to go with the latter?
Yes, but not as difficult as dealing with the hurt of rejection later down the road.
You werent the only one who hurt when you left. Tina said quietly feeling uncomfortable for the first time all week.
You never showed it if you hurt.
Do you honestly think that after seven years of marriage I could just drop it all so easily?
What was I supposed to think, Tina? You never explained anything to me and you never tried. I had to move on with my life and I did.
Bette sat up as the conversation became somewhat heated. Tina did the same and they were face to face sitting across from each other, completely vulnerable as they flung the sheets away, leaving them naked. Tina looked at the clock and saw it was two in the morning. She debated leaving the conversation where it was and embracing Bette for the rest of the night or finishing the talk with the possibility and probability of walking away with another fight under her belt.
You couldnt have waited?
You never gave me any hope! I couldve waited forever and you wouldnt have taken any steps in my direction. I tried my hardest, Tina.
Silence filled the room, holding the tension in the air. Tinas cheeks were flushed with anger and Bettes eyes glowed with frustration. Both saw the signs of a fight in the other.
Maybe we both needed some time apart. Tina finally whispered.
I think thats the first thing you and I can agree on right now. Bette shot back. But we took that to the extreme, didnt we?
I didnt see you pick up a phone or visit.
No, but either did you. But you did think it was ok to sleep with me then walk out the next morning without even saying goodbye. Do you remember that night in NY?
