It had been two full weeks of silence from Aaron. The first week I didn’t attempt to reach out. I felt foolish and absolutely childish, and I never liked to admit when someone else was right, especially if it highlighted that I might be wrong. Hopefully that would pay off in my chosen profession, but it didn’t bode well for my personal life. It was a trait I was going to work on.

By the second week, I had my apology to Aaron all worked out, and I even wrote a letter to Gabby about my feelings for her brother. It stayed in my jewelry box until the time was right. Or now I should say if the time would ever be right. I had left several messages on Aaron’s voicemail, sent texts, and emails, and he didn’t respond to any of them. Of course, that pulled me to the wonderful interwebs where I searched and searched to see if any new images of him with someone else were posted online. Thankfully there weren’t any, but that didn’t mean anything necessarily. I think he had plenty on quick dial. The thought made me queasy.

But I had to get in the zone because today was my final driving class on the motorcycle, followed by my endorsement test, and it was the first time I’d be using the bike that Jason built for me. It wasn’t anything fancy. I wanted a basic bike to learn on, and I felt the safest knowing Jason rebuilt it for me. It felt odd going through the motions when the person I started to do it for might possibly not be in the equation any longer or maybe he never was.

My phone buzzed and it was Jason, right on time. He was downstairs waiting to show me my new two-wheeled wonder. Shaking the disappointment away, I took off for the elevator and hoped it would put me in better spirits.

When I made it downstairs, Jason was standing on the curb with a plate of baked goods.

“Is this what she’s been up to?” I asked, giving Jason a big hug.

“Indeed. Hopefully, you have someone to share them with.”

My insides twisted at the realization that I actually didn’t have anyone to share them with, and why wouldn’t Jason know that? Did I become that inconsequential?

“I’ll put these on the seat until you go upstairs. Now let’s check this baby out. I can tell you Gabby is absolutely going to flip when she finds out you’ve learned to ride. And Aaron. Hell. He’s going to think he died and went to heaven.”

A lump formed in the back of my throat and my gaze fell to the sidewalk. Please not now, not in front of him.

“Brandy, you okay?”

My movement went from a slight nodding gesture to completely shaking my head. The tears began to spill down my cheeks and the embarrassment of the situation was almost as stifling. I mean I knew Jason but not that well and here I was bawling in front of him.
