Lola stared at her manicured fingers gripping the card deck with
the same disgust she’d shown when she discovered the local television station
had replaced her favorite crime program with a teen reality show.
Her elderly bridge partner, Herman, had a shock of silver
hair that waved over his skull similar to a rooster’s comb. Any hair in a man’s
later years was all gravy to the point most of the other male residents
grumbled that Herman was a show-off.
He waved his hand in front of her face. “Still breathing?
Good partners are hard to come by.”
“Don’t I know it.” She shuffled, ignoring the twinge of pain
in her hand.
Marcy and Jake laughed at her comment, but Herman narrowed
his eyes, probably taking it as an insult regarding his failure to get the last
two trumps.
Lola dealt out a card, still out of sorts, but not quite
able to put her finger on why and retorted, “Retirement stinks!”
Marcy, always a calmer member of the group, shot her an easy
smile that hardly creased her face. Most folks would think she was younger than
her forty plus years with her dark hair hardly touched by gray and her trim
body. The only old thing about her was the wheelchair, which was temporary.
If Lola had had a clue that chasing criminals would have
kept her looking young, she might have chosen that as a career as opposed to
making use of her long legs and other notable assets as a Vegas showgirl.
Still, it had been a good life. Her ability to sum up people in a few seconds
allowed her to have more than her share of pleasant adventures and adoring
admirers. That was behind her. She sighed and acknowledged Marcy with a nod,
curious to hear what the woman might say.
“Hear ya. Most working folks would envy us. We’re all living
in a premier assisted living community with plenty of activities. What else
could you want?”
Lola pursed her lips and rolled her eyes upward as she tried
to explain how she felt without insulting her companions. “Sure, we have
shuffleboard, fit and sit exercise class, flower arranging, and Bible Bingo.
Those are old people things. Even the food has morphed into tasteless mush.”
“About that.” Jake held his hand up. “Something is going on
with the dietary director.” He glanced around making sure he had everyone’s
attention and cupped his ear with his hand. “I hear things.”
A general murmur of agreement followed, with the exception
of Gus yelling, “What?” He sat at a nearby table playing solitaire. Gus didn’t
know how to play bridge and had no desire to learn.
Various eyes connected around the table, knowing the inevitable
process of repeating what had been said in a much louder decibel would probably
result. Gus’s early life of working with explosives damaged the man’s hearing.
Even though he had hearing aids, he usually didn’t wear them, because he
thought they made him look old.
Instead of yelling his former comment, Jake ran a hand over
his shoe polish black hair before mouthing the words. Gus popped up both
thumbs, signaling his understanding. At some point, he taught himself to lip
read, but it only worked if he was directly looking at a person.
