Travis laughed. He didnt believe her. He had seen too many movies and read too many books where the guy blew in the girls ear and the girl ended up marrying the guy. So he blew in her ear. She cried out in pain. Youre kidding, he said, startled. But the look on her face said that she wasnt kidding. Somethings wrong, she told him. He apologized profusely. She put her little finger in her ear; when she pulled it out, there was moisture on her fingertip. She said she could hear a whooshing sound. He felt sick. He couldnt believe that he had just injured her. This had never happened in any movie or any book. Yet it was happening to her. She felt dizzy. She ran to the bathroom and threw up. Im so sorry, honey, he told her. Very quietly, she said it was okay. She wanted to go home. He walked her out to his car. She said the whooshing sound was not going away. When they got to her place, she got into her bed and lay down. She asked him to please leave, as she wanted to try to sleep. He apologized again. He got back into his car and returned to his apartment. What a jerk I am, he said over and over. What a jerk. |
