by Nicole Snow
“He’s just being polite.” I start walking again. “And we're being rude, Clara. He has a little girl to get home to put to bed. He's waiting for us to leave. Making sure we're safe.” I leave it there so I don't have to mention, much less think about Preston again.
“So...no mother? No wife? I mean, if you've got to deal with her, there are always ways around the drama. You can't let that stop you!”
“Clara.”
“Okay, okay! I’m just curious.”
“Nosy, you mean,” I mumble, climbing in my car. As the engine purrs to life, I wave. “Thanks again for the pie.”
She gets in her car and pulls away. I follow. Brent follows me. I try to let out a huff of relief, but there's none in me. I follow Clara’s tail lights to the highway.
Thank God.
I cringe. Hoping he doesn’t plan on following me all the way to my place in Tempe. Knowing Clara, she’s already considering how to turn around and follow him home. My mind starts spinning faster than the nighttime traffic whipping down the four-lane highway.
A small sense of relief seeps out of me when I look in my mirrors again. Brent takes an exit. And I don’t see a car that looks like Clara’s anymore.
Then reality hits home.
Jesus! This night could've been an even bigger disaster.
If Clara ever hears what Brent said to Preston, about us being engaged, I’m toast.
And so is he.
There's no drama in the known universe like Derby drama.
And me, being a single crazy cat lady for the rest of my life, has been the main family tragedy for months.
Who knew the fix could be even worse?
