The Perfect Man Page #3
I also have
an open-mind policy.
There are no stupid questions.
So please, if you have
something on your mind,
knock on my door.
Mom.
Or raise your hands.
Woman in the back.
Go ahead.
Hi.
Instead of once a year,
have you considered
students and teachers
could exchange thoughts
in an effort to enhance...
communication and bridge gaps?
That's a...
That's a great comment,
Mrs...
Miss Hamilton.
I also wondered if you'd
thought of monthly mixers
for single parents.
Not that I don't want to meet
married parents as well.
I would.
It's just that sometimes
we single parents...
have different concerns
than married ones.
Different priorities.
If you know what I mean.
And by priorities I mean:
I need to meet a good man.
In that case,
where do I sign up?
Okay, well,
this was interesting.
Where were we here?
So you're just not
going to talk to me
for the rest of your life?
Come on, Holly.
appreciated the suggestion.
Did it ever occur to you
that the point
of the meeting...
wasn't for the needs
of the single parent?
That the point
of the meeting was maybe
for, I don't know...
the kids?
Well, sure.
I was just thinking...
About you!
Because you're always
thinking about you.
She's doing it again.
Only this time,
I can't smile and play along.
Because the truth is
I'm tired...
of bubble-wrap
of figuring out new towns...
and finding new friends.
It's just not fun anymore.
It's just not.
You know what
is talking about this morning?
that got in a wreck
on Eighth Avenue.
There's donuts
everywhere.
It's a total free-for-all.
Between the excitement
and the sugar buzz,
everyone's pretty much...
forgotten everything
that happened
before 8:
00 this morning.It could have been worse.
Don't worry, it will be.
I mean, she starts out
hopeful, and then
when the perfect man...
doesn't come around
in two weeks,
she gets desperate...
and hooks up with some loser.
Some guy who's not even
good enough to mop her floors.
And then,
when it doesn't work out,
we pack up and move again,
and there's nothing
I can do about it.
I can't even run away
because that's what
she does.
I thought you said
you didn't mind
all the moving around.
I didn't. I mean, I don't.
I just got here.
The River Bistro.
What are we doing here?
I can't even afford to pee
in a place like this.
Much less actually eat here.
Relax,
it's under control.
My uncle's the owner.
Him?
You've got to be kidding.
