CHAPTER ELEVEN

DETECTIVE CONNIE WILKS entered the women’s bathroom. “Lisa?” She twisted a strand of her long, blonde hair around her finger.

Lisa sobbed into a tissue in front of the mirror.

Connie patted her back. “Honey, what’s wrong? Why are you crying?”

She sniffled. “It’s Dee.” She wiped her nose. “She’s different. She’s changing.”

“What are you talking about?” Connie tore a piece of paper towel from the dispenser and dabbed Lisa’s face. “Calm down. Now what’s going on with you and Dee?”

“She...” She sniffled. “She was horrible to me just now. She acts like she hates me.”

“That’s silly. Dee loves you. You’re her best friend.”

“No, she’s jealous of me.” Tears fell as fast as Lisa could wipe them. “She was so nasty to me just now, Connie. I never would’ve expected that from her.”

“But I don’t get it.” Connie rubbed her back. “Why would Dee be this way to you?”

“Can you keep a secret?”

“Sure.” Connie smiled. “What’s going on?”

“I think she’s taking it out on me because she has feelings for Winston and she doesn’t know how to deal with that.”

Connie took her hand off Lisa’s back. “You mean she likes him?”

“She’s in love with him.” Lisa wiped a tear off her lips. “And she’s upset with me because he likes me.” She dabbed the corners of her eyes. “But that’s not my fault. If she likes him she should be woman enough to tell him instead of acting all evil.”

Connie bit her lip. “I had a feeling she liked Winston. I mean she’s so defensive about him all the time.”

Lisa threw the tissue into the wastebasket beside the sink. “Don’t tell, okay?”

“I won’t.” Connie smiled. “So what exactly is the deal between you and Winston?”

“Nothing.” Lisa checked her face in the mirror.

“Lisa, come on.” Connie went toward the first stall. “When I caught you two kissing in the file room it looked like more than nothing.”

“Well whatever it was is over.”

Lisa left the bathroom.
