章 119: Naive And Gullible

Now that Lucy was relaxed on her couch, in the privacy of her home, she took a moment to reflect on all that had happened at the Cinema earlier that day. 

How had she not realized that Tom's change of attitude after Anita's arrival was that of annoyance and irritation and not embarrassment? Was she really that naive and clueless? And how come Anita didn't give her any hint that she had been in a relationship with Tom? Especially considering the fact that they were both 'friends'? Why was she hiding it? Perhaps she was ashamed to tell anyone that she had once been in a relationship with a mere handyman? 

If Anita was truly Tom's ex-girlfriend as he had said, and she wasn't interested in Tom as she had thought, why then was Anita so receptive of her friendship? Perhaps Anita wanted him back? No, Lucy thought with a shake of her head. That couldn't be the reason since if Anita was interested in Tom, she would have spent more time talking about him.
