Without Tim – Part 7
Lara ”…”
Marina ”Well…perhaps you didn’t care. If that is the case, then I have been wasting my time here, which means I owe my girlfriend waiting in the car an apology for wasting hers.”
Lara ”I never said I didn’t care! You seem to be interested in how all of this affects Dana! I’ve had to deal with my own hurt and unlike her, I don’t exactly have a group of friends to fall back on! What friends I used to have I left behind! And I do NOT need you telling me how important friendship is!”
Marina ”What are you talking about?”
Lara ”I’m talking about what friends are really like! Oh, they’ll look out for the ones they care about the most, but the rest of us are fucked! I had friends…or at least who I thought were friends…they knew. They knew that the girl I was seeing was seeing one of their friends. A fucking trapeze artist. Not only that, but they were engaged! I thought about that afterwards and for a long time…the looks they would give, and then give each other. The kind of looks I’m sure you and your friends would give while around Dana. I don’t fucking need this. I don’t fucking need you telling me this!”
Marina ”I will ask you once more. Do you care about Dana?”
Lara closes her eyes, tilting her head down.
Marina ”Because if you do…then you need to tell her. I see you’ve been hurt in the past. We all have. This isn’t about the past. This is about right now and right now, Dana needs all the support she can get. And if you want to stand there and pretend you’re the only one hurting, then forget about ever being in her life again! Because you will have exposed yourself about who you truly were. Just another girl trying to show how smooth she is at getting in a closeted girl’s pants…and nothing more.”
The statement stings at Lara, like a slap in the face. She grits her teeth, trying to keep in her anger.
Lara ”You…have…no…FUCKING IDEA HOW MUCH I CARE ABOUT HER!!! I care about her so fucking much it hurts!!! IT GODDAMN HURTS!!!”
Fighting back tears, Lara reaches once more for her keys. Marina reaches for Lara’s hands, both once again face to face.
