Rita
He is everywhere. I’m not even on social media anymore and still, his
face looms at me from other people’s screens. I try not to notice Brodie
Kent, but it’s hard not to when he is, literally, everywhere. It is maddening.
Even today, at The Half Moon Café, where I help out, Brodie Kent, star
Boston Bullets quarterback bad boy, grins at me from my friend’s phone.
“He’s so handsome, isn’t he?” Kate says in an annoying swoony way,
sighing audibly, as she scrolls through the latest updates on his so-called
private life.
There’s nothing private about it. Every moment is snapped, tweeted, and
commented on across all channels. There’s Brodie with some actress at an
award ceremony in Hollywood. There he is again scoring a touchdown at
some high-profile tournament final. And again, at an orphanage, playing
football with the children, who are obviously loving it, judging by the
expressions on their faces. The next photo is at a club in Manhattan, a
gorgeous woman on each arm. Who will be hunky Brodie’s lucky lady? the
caption reads.
Just seeing him is exhausting but I am compelled to look.
“I suppose,” I say, doing my best to sound bored. “If you like that sort of
sports jock kind of thing.” Then I try to distract my love-shmuck bestie.
“But if you want to see something really cute and adorable, I’ll send you
some pics of Bambi.” Kate is still scrolling but I go on regardless. “His leg
is healing really well, and my dad said that he should be as good as new in a
few days. Then he can return to his herd.” I’m not even sure Kate is
listening. “That’s great. Isn’t it?”
“Sure is,” Kate says, still intent on the flickering images of the super-star
football player.
I force myself to turn away, even though I am as transfixed by Brodie
Kent’s handsome image as Kate: his stupid cute side-ways smile; his floppy
blond hair that falls casually across his forehead; the expressive eyebrows
that tweak upwards giving him a boyish cheekiness, and a sexy infectious
charm. So incredibly irritating.
The camera loves him. As I attempt to tear myself away from Kate’s
phone, I’m aware as she scrolls, that there isn’t a bad picture. He looks
drop-dead gorgeous in each and every one: every single angle. And it’s not
just the camera that loves Brodie Kent. He is adorable. Everyone loves him.
Especially women.
I pick up a cloth and vigorously wipe down the counter that doesn’t need
wiping down. It is positively gleaming. I check, again, the arrangement of
delicious cakes, slices, mini-pies, quiches, and tarts in the refrigerated
counter display cabinet to distract myself from the hot football hero.
Thankfully, some people come into the café. A welcome distraction. They
approach the counter and I greet them with a cheery good morning, ready to
take their order or show them to a table.
