Friday was going perfect, I had plans to meet Ruthie early and go to Alina Poroshina's art show at Bethlehem Church and then run to the Andy Warhol exhibit and hear a talk by the curator, Ruthie was meeting Hector later that night and I was meeting up with Marci after she had dinner with her parents.
Ruthie called to say she was running late and we walked from my house, saw the fancy Johnny Weekend on his way to the GRAM and he told us he was having sushi first. After the curator said very little about Andy Warhol and spoke
mostly about pop art and the holly trinity as he called them we strolled around, it is difficult to see a Warhol show because you have seen those pieces so many times nothing really surprises you. The only think that kept my attention was the colors which still look like they were printed yesterday.
As Ruthie and I went back to her car she told me she had time to hang out as Hector would still be a while so we decided to go to the Pub 43, I had tentative plans to meet Scott at Sazerac should Marci cancel. I looked to see if Marci had called but there was a text from a familiar number.
" I am in GR, FYI " it thought it odd but not surprising and went back to talking to Ruthie. Sometime later Scott sent me a text " She is here "
I wrote back " NOt Coming". I texted Sarah asking her to talk to me.
later yet a message from her "Fuck You". Ruthie asked me what was wrong
and I said I was getting strange texts. "Ran into Nikki, you are liar a and I made the right decision". It was even more strange coincidence because Nikke and Ruthie know each other, it turns out Nicky was wanting to know information about Ruthie because she was interested in the same guy, Aaron
when I met them, Nicky would always find a way to get me to talk about Ruthie and before I could figure the whole thing out. One day I was walking to Eastown and got a call from Nicky saying she wanted to go to the Eastown Fair
and I said I was on my way and would be passing by her street if she wanted
to tag along. As we walked to Eastown all she did was talk about me meeting
her frien Aaron, it took me a few minutes to realize the whole thing and the
next time she asked about Ruthie, I stopped the walk looked at her in the eye and said, Ruthie is a good friend of mine, please stop this I am not going to give you ammunition to use against her with Aaron.
Later when I had my birthday party Nicky showed up late with some friends and when she saw Ruthie she made a big scene and put her hand to her mouth
in total telenovela fashion, she left only after twenty minutes saying that
Ruthie was giving her the evil eye, something Ruthie would never do.

I tried calling Sarah all weekend and never got an answer.
