Maxine to the Rescue

“Maxine, I have a problem.”

“Admitting it is the first step.”

“Ha, ha, Maxine, very funny.”

Angela felt the hot water surround her feet as the pedicurist filled the basin. She added some soft petals and sweet smelling salts to the bath of hot water and then left Angela and Maxine alone.

“This feels amazing, Angela. It seems like it’s been forever since we have had a girls’ day.”

“It really does, Maxi.”

“So, what’s this problem you seem to have?”

“I think I am starting to fall in love.”

“Ooh, with who?” Maxine cooed.

“Anderson.”

“I had a feeling it was him. He seems like a really nice man, Angela, but what are you planning to do about Mark?”

“That’s the problem. If I didn’t have real feelings for Mark as well, this wouldn’t really be an issue. The problem is, I do still have feelings for him. It isn’t like I can just choose one or the other, but I really need to, and soon. It’s not fair to anyone. I can’t keep them waiting in this purgatory-like state. It’s not fair. It’s not fair to me to be so unsure about which man I want most.”

“That’s all really true, Angela. I’m glad you’re going through this and not me, to be honest.”

“Thanks, Maxine. Your words are really sweet,” Angela said in a sarcastic tone. She knew that her friend was just being playful, so she didn’t take any offense from her words. She knew that her friend really had her best interest at heart.

“Be honest, Angela. Do you favor one more than another?”

“Well, of course I do.”

“That’s the one you should choose.”

“But how do I know that things are really over with Mark?”

“You have to make that decision. Do you really want to keep going around in circles with him? It never seems to end. One minute you’re together, and then a few hours later you’re crying on the floor, feeling absolutely heartbroken. I really don’t want to see you go through that anymore, Angela. You deserve so much better than that. You know you do.”

“You’re right. I know you’re right. You’re always right, Maxine. It’s just so much easier to listen to advice than to actually follow it.”

“I’m sure it’s easier than living in limbo.”

“I’ll let you know when I make a choice.”

At that moment, the women doing their pedicures came back. The young woman lifted Angela’s foot out of the basin of water and began to scrub away the dead skin and callouses on the sole of her foot. She wished that the woman could scrub hard enough to take her problems away, or at least make the decision easier.

Of course, the pedicurist wasn’t a magician, and she wasn’t able to make the decision for her. Angela thought about asking the woman, but she thought that the woman might think she was crazy.

Angela had no choice but to try and figure out the answer on her own. She sat in the pedicure chair, and while she was supposed to be relaxing, she could think of nothing but Mark and Anderson.
