DANA TABITHA AND SALLY
Tabitha: “Would you like to talk about it?”
Dana: “You think I am weak or something?”
Tabitha: “No, I think I know better than that.”
Dana: “I don’t mean physically.”
Tabitha: “I know.”
Dana: “It’s just that it has all been up to me. It was never his fault.”
Sally: “It takes two to tango, you know. It’s not likely it was all your doing.”
Tabitha: “Actually, it only takes one to mess up.”
Both Sally and Dana looks at Tabitha. Tabitha, did the zip the mouth up motion, and just sat and was quiet.
Dana: Looked at Tabitha and then turned to Sally. "It was me.
Tabitha: Nodding her head. “ummmm humm.”
Then when Dana and Sally looked at her again, she did the zip mouth again.
Dana: “But he still loves me or else he would not have come to see me some days ago. He has saved my bacon many times. I have been into so many things running from all that he stands. I have not been able to forget
him and I have tried.”
Tabitha: “You got it bad!”
Sally and Dana, looked at Tabitha again.
Tabitha: “Well I am part of this conversation. I kind of earned it, you know.”
Dana: “Well Miss Tabitha, I heard that you had it so bad for him that people said they could smell him on you. I had
heard a few things but that one got to me.”
Tabitha: “Sally!”
Sally: “I never said anything like that to Dana. Oh no Dana, you must have met and talked to Freda.”
Dana: "A very short haired woman.”
Sally: “Yep, that’s her.”
Tabitha: “So you did say that about me having his smell in me.”
Sally:”It was only Freda and it did seem like I could smell him on you.” Sally looks at Dana bewildered.
“Sorry, she said.”
Dana: “It’s ok. I don’t worry about any woman getting an
inside track on him!”
Tabitha: “No, you’ll kick her butt!”
They both got up at the same time and Sally got between them.
Dana: Turning towards the door with her back to Sally and Tabitha. “I think I better go.”
Sally seeing that Tabitha is about to say something, put her whole hand over her mouth.
