Gossip is called gossip because it's not always the truth. (Justin Timberlake)

Christian sat down with me at the same small circular glass top table we always sat at. “So who was that?”

“Someone from a long, long time ago.”

When I called Tommy the next week Gloria was all aflutter with the scandal of it all.

“But who is he?”

“Just a guy I used to know.”

“An ex-lover! How fabulous! So when he–”

“Goodbye, Gloria.”

“No, let me stay! They don't let us watch TV in here. I need a little drama.”

“Gloria...”

“Come on, this is as close as I'll get to watching a soap opera until I get out.”

“Goodbye, Gloria.”

“Fine,” she said as she trudged out.
