WHERE DOES THE GOOD
GO?
We are in the parking lot of Dodger Stadium, and once again, Ryan
has forgotten where we left the car. I keep telling him that it’s in Lot
C, but he doesn’t believe me.
“No,” he says, for the tenth time. “I specifically remember turning
right when we got here, not left.”
It’s incredibly dark, the path in front of us lit only by lampposts
featuring oversized baseballs. I looked at the sign when we parked.
“You remember wrong,” I say, my tone clipped and pissed-off.
We’ve already been here too long, and I hate the chaos of Dodger
Stadium. It’s a warm summer night, so I have that to be thankful for,
but it’s ten P.M., and the rest of the fans are pouring out of the stands,
the two of us fighting through a sea of blue and white jerseys. We’ve
been at this for about twenty minutes.
“I don’t remember wrong,” he says, walking ahead and not even
bothering to look back at me as he speaks. “You’re the one with the
bad memory.”
“Oh, I see,” I say, mocking him. “Just because I lost my keys this
morning, suddenly, I’m an idiot?”
He turns and looks at me; I use the moment to try to catch up to
him. The parking lot is hilly and steep. I’m slow.
“Yeah, Lauren, that’s exactly what I said. I said you were an idiot.”
“I mean, you basically did. You said that you know what you’re
talking about, like I don’t.”
“Just help me find the goddamn car so we can go home.”
I don’t respond. I simply follow him as he moves farther and
farther away from Lot C. Why he wants to go home is a mystery to
me. None of this will be any better at home. It hasn’t been for
months.
