Nuala opens
the front door
sees Brian sitting
in his armchair
drinking a beer
smoking a cigarette
without the TV on
which is rare
you're home early
she says
entering the lounge
looking at him
brooding over
his can of beer
where'd you go?
he says
looking at her
went shopping
in town
she replies
I told you where
I was going
she sits on the sofa
uncertain
of his questioning
a mood behind it
who'd you see?
he asks
people
and shoppers
why?
she says
you saw her
didn't you?
he says
who do you mean?
she says
your friend Una
he says
Nuala blushes
naturally
before she
can try
to control it
o yes
I bumped into her
while shopping
Nuala replies
her mind panicking
why'd you kiss her?
he asks
his eyes studying
her features
kiss her?
she says
yes you kissed her
he says
women do kiss
each other
as friends
she says
on the lips?
he says
how'd you know
where I kissed her?
Nuala stands up
walks to the window
looks out
I followed you
into town
saw you both
you went off
with her
to some bedsit
and went in
he says coldly
what'd you do there?
she gazes
at the passing
people below
at the passing traffic
why'd you
follow me for?
a game at first
I was going
to surprise you
in the shops
but then
you met her
and I followed
he says
hardness
in the tone
she turns
gazes at him
what did you do
while in her bedsit?
we had coffee
and a talk
Nuala looks
away from him
stares at the people
outside again
you were there
too long just to talk
and have coffee
he says
what are you
suggesting?
she says
acting offended
gazing
back at him
something weird
going on
with you
and her
he says
they stare
at each other
a silence comes
between them
all right then
I love her
we've made love
for months now
Nuala says
her voice shaky
he reddens
and opens
his mouth
to say something
but nothing comes
feck off
to her then
get your stuff
and go
he says
after a few moments
reflecting
she looks at him
her world beginning
to unfold
and fall apart
as if someone
had pierced
her betraying heart.
