Slow Dancing On Price's Pier (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
When Irina had been learning to ride her bike and she’d scraped her knee so that there was hardly any unscratched skin to speak of, Thea had told her, It’s going to be okay. When Irina was six and she’d come tearfully into Thea’s bedroom to confess that she’d broken the living room lamp, Thea made room for her under the covers and said It’s going to be okay. And last week, when Irina had purposely snapped her toothbrush in two because Thea wouldn’t drive her over to Providence at almost nine o’clock on a weekday night to see her father, Thea summoned all her patience and assured her daughter, It’s going to be okay. Irina needed to know they would get through this. All of them. And yet to assure another person It’s okay was also to acknowledge that something was wrong. “I don’t know what to do,” she told Dani over the telephone. “Tell me what to do. How do I handle this?” “Hey.” Dani’s voice was soft. “You’re freaking out.” Thea forced a deep breath.
