My mother’s friend Mary,
being the type who volunteers at birth-control clinics, was not the type to
tell. Still, the night we both showed up, I dodged her, dashing nearly naked
across halls until my best friend used her own exam as a diversion. As far as I
know, Mary took my secret to the grave.
But I'm sure the CCTV footage of you dashing across the hallway was a hit at the Christmas party that year.
ReplyDeleteYou're right. Not the type to tell.
