Chapter 6-JUNE

It doesn’t feel like “no time at all” at all. Davis has only been gone for two weeks and they have been the longest two weeks I’ve experienced since last summer. A long two weeks, even with lots of transitions happening. The first change happened about 25 minutes after Davis left, when I suddenly realized … I had no transportation. Without Davis and his car, I had no ride to work. I, we, had gotten so used to being together that I just forgot about needing a way to get to my job at the theatre, since he was no longer going to be working there and taking me. About the time it hit me, my phone rang.

“Biz?” It was Davis. I already knew from the caller ID. The way he said my name was a bit frantic.

“Of course, Mavis, who else would it be?”

He chuckled at my mild snarkiness. “Hey, I’m turning around. I just realized you don’t have a way to get to work. You’re car-less.” What? Turning around? What can he do about it now?

“I know.” I giggled. I really had no idea why I was giggling. It was sort of a problem. “But I don’t know what good it will do you to turn around. You can’t give me your car. You’ll need it up there.” I had an idea. “Hey, how far is the theatre from the condo, do you think?”

“I don’t know, a mile and a half, two?” Davis guessed.

I offered a solution. “You know what? I can just walk to work. It will be good for me. Or maybe I’ll start running.”

“Lizard, are you sure? Because I can come back now and we can figure something out. I don’t mind.”

I reassured him, although I’d love for him to come back, “Yes, it’s fine. And if you come back now, I don’t know if I could say good-bye again. I might just lock you in the condo and not let you leave.”

“I’d let you,” he whispered. “I was secretly wishing for something to make me turn around.”

I toughened up. “No. You keep going. It’s all going to be fine. It will all work out. Call me when you get in and get settled. I love you.” Davis told me he loved me too. We both breathed out heavily and after about a half a minute of hanging on the line with each other, said, “Bye, baby,” almost simultaneously.
