Chapter 6- I am trying I really am. Thanks for the love people though.
Evelyn and Megan were talking to Connie and Tabbi, when Malcolm and a woman who looked vaguely familiar walked over to them. As usual, Malcolm opened his big mouth.
"Evelyn, you remember Lynn Kingston. Troy's wife"
Evelyn smiled at her "Lynn, of course I didn't recognize you, you cut your hair. You had such beautiful hair. What brings you out here; don't you live in NY now?'
"Well Malcolm suggested that I come to a game and here I am" she chuckled "how could I turn down Malcolm?" She looked at Megan who started laughing and turned around.
"Malcolm, you can leave me here with the wives, I'm sure I'll be fine "Lynn watched Malcolm shrug and walk away. Evelyn poked at Megan to turn back around .Then looked at the younger woman carefully before asking "So, why are you really here hanging out in the upper deck. Gabe called Megan and told her you were coming, and I'm surprised you aren't with the rest of the rabid fans."
"Ugh I'd love to be down there but that little worm cornered me at the hotel and conned me into being up here. Anyway how are you looking fabulous and how is Molly handling everything?"
"Molly" Evelyn rolled her eyes before answering "Well depends on who the young up and coming is, see that Lemonde kid. He was the flavor of the month last month. That is until I told him all about my sweet daughter. He decided to stay with his girlfriend after all." Evelyn looked around the room "Tabbi, over here" she called to young girl. The girl walked over to her.
"Tabbi, this is your boyfriend's hero's wife"
"Oh my gosh. You are Troy Kingston's wife. My boyfriend loved your husband "Tabbi bubbled.
"Yes, I'm Lynn and I'm guessing you are Tabbi right?"
"Tabbi nodded "Yes Trev is going to be so excited that you were watching him"
Lynn nodded towards the ice "well it looks like your man just scored. If you can excuse me I have to get a beer"
"Oh sure "tabbi smiled at her. Lynn started to walk away when something about Tabbi made her turn around "Hey Tabbi, you want to go with me? I'll buy you a beer and you can tell me all about Trevor"
"Okay' was the excited girls answer.
Down in the lobby, after finding a table Lynn and tabbi sat down to watch the third period of the game and drink their beers.
"So Tabbi, how do you like Trevor playing up here for the Mustangs, must be pretty sweet huh?" She saw a sad look come over the girls face.
" well at first it was I loved it but now its just too hard to try and fit in with the rest of the girlfriends and wives. They are all snobs. Like Molly I thought she was my friend but after Nan died … her mother is a nice woman though"
" Tabbi… you seem like a great girl, and I bet Trevor lives very much so I'm going to give you a word of advice , don't let this game change you or Trevor. It will try but you people have to stay firm. Troy and I did, but then Troy was traded. Do not worry about that though. Listen I'm here for a few days, so why don't we have lunch or shop together" Lynn reached into her purse and handed Tabbi her card with her contact numbers on it.
"Really?" Tabbi asked her in an excited voice just as the end of the game buzzer sounded.
" yes, well that was the game over bell so come on I'll walk you back to the suite but don't forget call me" Lynn told her as she hooked her arm in Tabbi's and they made their way back.
I will try to up seven up tonight.
