WINNIE
“He did not say that!”
I’m driving the two and a half hours it takes to get from Palisade
to Silverthorne, the smell of eggplant parmesan and garlic bread
keeping me company. I should probably be crying over the events of the
last four hours, but when I think about it too long, I can’t stop myself from
laughing. That should clue you in on how I decide to deal with things in my
life. I find the humor or completely avoid it at all costs. There is no in
between. I went to Palisade to surprise my boyfriend of six months with his
favorite dinner as a romantic gesture. However, after I arrived at his peach
orchard and let myself into his home with the key he gave me last month, it
became clear it was me that would be getting surprised.
“Win, tell me he did not say that!” my best friend Marigold gasps at me
through my car’s speaker. I called her when I was about 30 minutes from
home, because I knew she would want to hear how tonight went. She
wasn’t prepared for this.
“He really did though. He also said that if I had been more ‘emotionally
available’, he wouldn’t have had to find someone else to ‘take care of
him’”. She makes a gagging sound and I start laughing.
“Stop or I’m going to be sick—and where was she? Just standing there?
The whole time?” I cringe, remembering the beautiful redhead with legs for
days.
“Yes, she was definitely there for the whole show. She was also in one
of his button downs.” I sigh and try to sober my laughing. “She was just
standing in his kitchen while he tried to explain that it didn’t really mean
anything.”
“No. Winnie. No.”
“Uh huh. I was almost more embarrassed for her than I was for me.”
“What the hell do you have to be embarrassed about? He’s the one that
should be embarrassed!” Marigold is fiercely protective and for some
reason finds all my quirks and issues charming where most people would
find them exhausting. I find them exhausting.
“You’re right. I’m not really embarrassed about what he did. I’m just
not sure what to feel. I’ve never been cheated on before.”
“Are you okay? Do you need me to come over when you get home?” I
think about that. I should need a friend to comfort me, with ice cream and
reality TV, but I don’t. I’m…fine.
“Honestly, I think I’m okay. I know I shouldn’t be, but I don’t think he
was completely wrong about me. I don’t know if I’ll ever be emotionally
available.”
“Winnie…” I head her off before she starts to hype me up.
“Seriously, Mare. I’m fine. A little anxious but fine. I think I’ll stop by
the bakery and check on Anna. I need to make sure things are set for this
weekend anyway.” She blows out a breath.
“You need to get some rest before the festival. You’ve been working
every day at the bakery since before you even opened.” Her tone is only
reproachful.
“I will. Things will slow down after the weekend and as crazy as it
sounds, being there will help me process. I always think better when I’m
busy with my hands.”
