Chapter 14
Dynassy
“So I need to meet this Bridger fellow. I hear you’re dating him now. Regularly.” Lucinda sat across the breakfast table from me in one of her colorful mumus, a turban wound around her head, her face fully made up down to the false eyelashes and lipstick.
“I am.” The cameras were rolling, so I was less forthcoming than I might have been otherwise.
“Aww, c’mon. Tell me about him. What’s he like?”
“Well, he’s our mechanic. At least he works for our mechanic—you know, Sal at the body shop, the place where they’re working on my car.”
“That place that Nick likes.”
“That’s the one.”
“The car you totaled?”
“Why does everyone keep saying that? I didn’t total it. I just banged it up a little.”
Lucinda gave me a look that screamed “whatever” but she didn’t say anything.
