I am going to murder Brenda Barrett. I am going to chop her gorgeous body into small manageable pieces and flush them. Turns out the reason Mike never followed up on seeing me again was that MY BEST FRIEND Brenda had warned him off!!!!
When I confronted her with this she wouldn't even apologize! Only for embarrassing me, but not for "trying to watch out" for me. Like I asked.
Like I need this. Then she says Mike is "bad news." She is the person who pointed out his assets to me in the first place! (Not that I hadn't noticed, but still.)
I found all this out in the most mortifying way possible, of course---from Mike himself. I ran into him at Kelly's, and he just happened to mention that the day we'd all been there together Brenda had told him to keep his hands off!
I blurted out(see, there I go), "Just forget her Mike. Forget whatever she said!" Subtle, huh? God, I am so humiliated.
