SOMETIMES I SHOULD SHUT MY MOUTH
I knew bringing up Brendan
wasn’t the most tactful thing
to do, especially on Christmas.
But sometimes Kristina makes
me so mad, I want to hurt her.
It’s stupid. She doesn’t injure
easily, at least not when the slaps
are verbal. When I mentioned
Brendan, she didn’t say anything
immediately. Finally she said,
I’m surprised he came back.
Surprised he’s still alive,
actually. He ripped off a lot
of people. Even worse than
he took advantage of me.
We were almost home by
then. I slowed enough to get
a few words in. “Don’t suppose
you’ll take some responsibility
for what happened that night?”
ANGER PUFFED
From her mouth in
abbreviated breaths.
What? You
want to
blame me
for getting
raped?
Oh
