FISHER HOME
"It--it's nothing," Molly stammers.
"I think--I don't know, it's just Sarah being Sarah, and--"
"That was a strange thing for her
to say," Claire says softly, placing a hand gently on Molly's forearm.
Molly doesn't say anything.
"Did something happen?" Claire asks
after a moment of jumbled thought. "Something with you and Brent?"
"It's--" Molly's explanation is headed
nowhere, and it ends with a deep sigh. She waits, gathering herself, and
finally says, "Things are really ugly between Sarah and Brent right now.
A lot has happened -- and Sarah is really looking for someone to blame.
She doesn't want their marriage to end."
Claire tries to read Molly's face.
She can tell that something is definitely there -- twisted though it is,
it's there, and it's swirling not far beneath the surface.
"Molly," she says. "If something
happened--"
"Brent and I are friends!" Molly
snaps, her head whipping to the side so that she can face Claire. "Sarah
is jealous of that! That's it. Just leave it alone."
Not completely satisfied, Claire
continues to study her for a few more seconds, but then backs away and
rises to her feet.
"I'm fine," Molly insists. Her gaze
has refocused on the door. "Things are just tense with Sarah and Brent,
and I feel caught in the middle. That's all."
Claire nods, though it is more in
acceptance of the fact that Molly doesn't want to discuss it now than anything
else.
