Heather and Victoria left the dance floor drenched, and searched for their waters. A scratchy paper napkin wiped the sweat from Heather’s chest. She was glad she threw on that tank top and short skirt before leaving the house.

Victoria slung her pocket book over her shoulder and grinned at Heather. Heather’s eyebrows dropped but then reality sunk in. “Where do you think you’re going, missy?”

“You’re not the only one using the party as an excuse to meet up with a fine gentleman. We have such limited time to see each other, have to make the most of it.”

She continued to feel guilty about Victoria’s decision. Heather didn’t care what happened to her marriage, but Victoria’s? Not many people celebrated thirty years with the same man. Heather suggested other resources but she would hear no part of it. Victoria made her decision and like everything else in her life, would stick with it until the end.

But what was the end? She hated to think of the consequences.

“Where are you meeting Aiden?”

“His home. And you?”

“Silvatri and I are meeting down the block in a parking lot. Car sex is just as good.”

Heather said good night to her friend and then chugged the remainder of her water. Loud hoots emerged from behind. She swiveled on the barstool. Tyrell sauntered in wearing a black button down shirt, a loose black tie, black baggy dress pants and matching shoes. His skin color blended perfectly with his clothing. Such a different look from his white kitchen scrubs.

Heather asked the bartended for another water, drank it in four large gulps and then asked for one more. She fanned herself with a Stella Artois beer coaster and then combed her hair back into a high ponytail with her fingers. Before she could finish the last twist, a hand reached over and tugged the tail.

“Hey, hey Heather, what’s happening?”

“Nice of you to join us Tyrell, I was just leaving.”

“Leaving? You can’t, the party’s just starting.”

“That’s funny, it was going pretty strong the whole time I was here.”

“Yeah, I heard, bat girl.”

“Bat girl?”

He held two fingers up on each of his hands and made a V. Then he whisked each V over his eyes imitating a dance move. “Heard you were doing the bat girl dance, woo hoo!” He continued his bizarre undulating movements.

“No, I wasn’t.”

“Yes you were. Didn’t know you could dance to hip-hop.” His hips flexed, gyrated, then his legs kicked out side to side as the V shapes flew past his face. “You’re a black girl in a white girl’s body,” he sang repeatedly.

Heather folded her arms in her chest and leaned back for the show.

“Bat girl, that’s your new name. Come on, show Tyrell how you dance, show me what you got.” Tyrell continued to sing and then turned around, bent forward, stuck his butt out and shook it back and forth like a food processor.

A snort erupted from the back of Heather’s throat. She keeled over and grasped the bar stool in front of her.

“Yeah, yeah, you like it.
