Chapter Eleven

Carol didn’t go to the gate, but instead went to the main terminal. She headed straight to the ticket counter. “I need to change a scheduled flight please. You’re boarding Flight 58 to La Guardia and I just received an urgent call. I need to go back to East Tennessee.” Carol handed over her ticket and boarding pass.

The ticket agent looked at her computer monitor for only a second and quickly typed in her information. “If you hurry, you’ll catch a flight back right now, but you’ll have to sprint. It’s boarding at Gate 12. I’ll call ahead and let someone know you’re on your way.”

She sprinted to the gate and dialed Tansie. “Hey, I need a favor. I’m not on the plane, but I need you to pick up my luggage and send it to me.”

Tansie seemed furious. She explained that she had changed her schedule and everything to entertain her friend and client for the next few days. “What is going on with you?”

Carol suddenly felt nothing but sadness. “I have no idea.”

Tansie instructed her to get on the plane to New York. “We need to talk. Now you get on that plane to La Guardia. I want to see you in a couple of hours.” She was overly excited. Even for a Tansie moment. She wanted her on the plane to New York and didn’t want to take no for an answer.

Carol glanced at her watch. She would be back at the cabin in five hours or so. “I can’t. I’m headed back home.”

Tansie was clearly concerned. “Carol, the message I got from you late yesterday sounded like you probably needed to get away from there for a week or so. Come to New York. Let your hair down. Forget Tom. Get even, find another Tom.”

Carol laughed. “I did that already and I definitely got even.” Before Tansie could ask what was going on, Carol lost service and was in flight shortly thereafter.

She revisited the past seven days as she flew home. She thought about Tom and William. She tried to analyze her weird dreams.

She pondered the reasons she felt jealousy when she saw Tom with his busty blonde. And then she thought about Clyde and his concerns over her sexual orientation. She pictured Maude and wondered how a woman like Maude could ever be trapped in a marriage with an illiterate man like Clyde Morris and be so seemingly okay with it.

She stayed on the subject of Maude and Clyde for a moment longer and decided maybe ignorance was bliss. Maude seemed content with what she had in Clyde. From Carol’s point of view though, Maude could’ve done much better. There were some distinguished families in Rogersville. She could have had any one of their men in her younger days. Carol thought of the old photographs of the older woman. The pictures she seemed to drag out whenever Carol would welcome the opportunity to hear about the good ole days of Maude and Clyde. Maude was a knockout back in the day, but she chose Clyde.
