Rinsing her hands at the ladies’ room sink, Ivy heard the clack of approaching heels. Don’t be Kara, don’t be Kara, don’t be Kara...

“Oh,” condescended Kara. “You’re still here.”

Terrific. “Can we not?”

Opening a lipstick, Kara pulled an innocent face. “Beg pardon?”

“Whatever,” Ivy said, trashing a paper towel and making a beeline for the door. “I don’t have the time or the energy to trade insults with you.”

“Too busy earning those designer duds?”

That halted her in her Louboutins. Was Kara trying to bait her, or had she actually seen something?

Returning Ivy’s glance in the mirror, Kara said, “I’ve seen you around town in your new wardrobe. Sum total must be thirty Gs. How does a girl making about twice that much a year afford to splurge like that?”

Ivy accosted her and hissed, “I have a husband with a trust fund who just slept with a skank. You do the math.”

“Look at that. You do have the energy.” Kara calmly put her lipstick away.

This woman was a piece of work. Barely containing her rage, Ivy said, “Stay out of my life.”

“Or what?” She reached for her open clutch, and out of pure, childish impulse, Ivy swept it off the counter, making its contents spill on the floor. “You’ll beat up my bag?”

Instant regret. She hated how this woman got to her. “I mean it. Dig in someone else’s yard before I go digging in yours.”

Placid as ever, Kara smirked and crouched down to retrieve her scattered makeup, wallet, and open plastic pill box. “Be my guest, Tyler. Maybe you’ll find what I’m looking for.”

Ivy frowned. “Which is?”

With a throaty chuckle, Kara snapped her pill box shut. “I get why he likes you so much.” She stood up and brushed past her. “You’re ballsy. Dumb, but ballsy.”

By ‘he’, she means Jason, Ivy wondered. Right? “You don’t know anything about me.”

“I know one thing,” Kara said, door handle in her grasp. “When this all blows up in your pretty little face, I’m gonna have good seats.” She winked, and was gone.

Alone in the restroom, Ivy repeated a mantra to calm herself down: If she had proof, he would know. If she had proof, he would know. And if he knew...

She closed her eyes, and a tear spilled down her cheek.

I am not going to cry at Ellison fucking Cole became her new mantra, and she steeled up.

Kara didn’t have proof. That’s why she went for button-pushers like Paris and the new wardrobe—to gauge Ivy’s reaction.

Looking down at her suddenly-obvious $1800 dress and $950 shoes, Ivy noticed a small elliptical blue pill near her toe. She picked it up, read the embossment—LILLY 4415—and stashed it into her own purse.

She had some research to do.
