PIER 22
"The divorce papers,"
Brent explains,
as though it were necessary, as he extends them to
Sarah. "Please, set
us both free. Sign them."
She looks at the papers as though
they are diseased. Then she looks back up at Brent. The moonlight lies
on his face, giving it the strangest tint. Is this really the man she married?
Suddenly that all seems to have been a lifetime ago.
"Sarah, please," he repeats.
She snatches the papers out of his
hand roughly. Unfolding them, she can't keep herself from looking over
them. This is really it. Or it could be.
"No!" she shouts. Her eyes scan over
the papers once more, her disgust growing, and then she flings them back
at him.
The wind grabs hold of them, but
Brent is able to snag them before they get away. He stares at Sarah in
disbelief.
"What are you doing?" he asks, though
he knows that the answer is going to be more than he could ever have wanted.
"I'm not signing them! I'm not making
it that easy for you!"
"Easy for me? Sarah, this
has been going on forever! Let both of us have some peace already!"
"No, because I know exactly what
'peace' is going to be for you!" Sarah blasts.
"Molly, right? All I'd be
doing by signing these papers would be opening up the path for you to be
with her! I'm not going to let that happen!"
