Chapter Fifty-One
Brenda: Sasha?
Brenda: I just want to check in.
Brenda: I haven’t heard from you since the dinner last night.
Brenda: Are you okay?
Sasha: I sent a video.
Brenda: Oh my goodness! Where did you get a video of our kids kissing?
Sasha: There are cameras in the driveway.
Brenda: They’re really going at it, aren’t they? On the motorcycle and all? Good heavens. I didn’t know my son was like that.
Sasha: That’s the most I’ve seen Cordelia smile in ages.
Brenda: This is great news! But why do you seem so down?
Sasha: Because my daughter hates me.
Brenda: She doesn’t hate you.
Sasha: Every time I open my mouth around her, I say the wrong thing.
Brenda: I go through the same with Viking.
Sasha: Delia has a wonderful man like Viking looking after her now. Maybe I should disappear from her life like she wants me to.
Brenda: But you worked so hard to get them together. You should at least watch them be a cute couple as a reward.
Sasha: What does it matter? I won’t even be invited when they decide to get married.
Brenda: Don’t give up, Sasha. There has to be a way to get through to Delia. She’s a sweet girl.
Sasha: I know. Which means I’m the problem.
Brenda: Sasha, don’t think like that.
Brenda: Sasha?
Brenda: Hello?
