Cat

We come down, and I see the one person I didn’t want to run into.

“Hey, Kate,” I say with a smile that’s only slightly forced. She’s lying on the couch with her forearm over her eyes, still in her work clothes. She sits up, looks at me and then at Ava, before rolling her eyes back over to me.

“Hi, Cat, you’re going out dressed like that?”

“Dressed like what?” I repeat, looking down at my clothes.

“Isn’t that skirt a little short for you? It seems more like your friend’s style.”

“Ho, ho, ho, Kate. It’s nice to see you too, and her friend has a name, it’s Ava.”

“I know what your name is. I chose not to acknowledge you, because looking at you is the last thing I want to do.”

“That’s what I get for trying to be nice to you, Kate. I guess we’re done with that now?” Ava smiles down at her, patting the side of her feet with her fingers. “You’re back to being a full-blown megawatt bitch with your stuck-up ass.”

“Why don’t you shut the hell up, Ava?” Kate says, kicking Ava’s hand away with her feet. “I can’t stand you.” She props herself up on her elbows ready to get off the couch to get at Ava.

“The feeling’s mutual,” Ava says, moving closer.

I have to stop this before someone gets hurt. Ava is not above fighting a pregnant woman, especially if it’s Kate. That’s not true; anyone else would get a pass except Kate.

“Wow, let’s settle down, ladies, and act like the grown-ups we are.” I place my hand on Ava’s shoulder and stand in front of her. Kate is sitting straight up in the middle of the couch, ready to launch. I can’t remember a time when they weren’t mortal enemies; they’re like oil and water—they don’t mix.

“In answer to your question, Kate, no, I don’t see anything wrong with my outfit. It’s appropriate for where I’m going tonight.”

“And where’s that?”

I can hear the attitude in her voice as she’s staring daggers at Ava. I hear Ava whisper under her breath, “None of your damn business.” I’m hoping Kate didn’t hear.

“We’re going to a club in the Bronx with—”

“A friend,” Ava interjects.

“Why would you go to a club in the Bronx?”

“We were invited by a friend.”

“So that makes it safe? I see you must want a cap in your ass.”

Ava and I look at her and start laughing. Ava’s the first to answer her.

“First of all, don’t ever talk street slang, and second, don’t be such a snob, there are plenty of neighborhoods in the Bronx that are safe to stroll through without worrying something’s going to happen. It’s the same as good ol’ Brooklyn. You have your bad parts and you have your good parts. You have to be alert and pay attention to your surroundings.”

“She’s right, Kate, we’ll be fine. We’re going to take a cab there and back.”

“Do what you want, don’t say I didn’t warn you.” She closes her eyes and lies back against the cushions.
