Bette was awake and she could smell the fresh aroma of coffee drifting through the house. The warm heat from the morning sun beamed in the window next to her bed. She then set up and ran her fingers through her hair. Tina popped into the room smiling and singing “There she was just walking down the street.”

“Hey B, good morning,” she said, still booping to the beat.

“Good morning,” Bette said sleepily, feeling as if she were hung over.

“Do you want to come jogging with me and Angelica this morning?” Tina asked.

“I don’t thinks so Tee,” but thanks for asking.” Bette stretched and walked into the bathroom. ” I’m going to freshen up,” she said, “and then have some of that coffee I smell brewing.”

“Okay then, we should be back in about an hour.” Tina headed out.

Bette finished up in the bathroom and walked into the kitchen. There was a breakfast plate in the microwave Tina had fixed and left for her. The note attached read,

‘B,

We love you, have a good breakfast,

Love Tee and Sweetness.’

Bette felt a warmth run through her. She poured herself a cup of coffee and sat down to eat her meal. Just as she was finishing up, the phone rang.

“Hello,”

“Hey baby sis, how it going this morning?” Kit asked.

“Hey Kit,” Bette replied. “Fine. What are you up too?”

“Work,” Kit replied, her voive was tence. “Are you busy,” she asked.

“Nope,” just finishing up my breakfast, Bette said chewing her last bit of toast.

“What’s wrong, Bette could tell Kit wasn’t very happy.

“Where do I start, Kit began. We are having a musician come in this afternoon, so I’m trying to get the place ready for that, her voice got angry. One of my girls called out and the cappuccino maker is on the fritz. Other than that my morning’s been just peachy.

Bette laughed. “Is there anything I can do to help out,” she said.

“Can you fix a cappuccino maker?

“No, I don’t think so, Bette snickered. But, I could take a stab at it.

Kit started to laugh. “Well,” she said, I didn’t call just to dump my greif on you. I called to invite you and Tina out this afternoon. Just a few of my close friends getting together. I think you two will really enjoy it. The woman who’s playing is wounderful. Her name is, Chemistry. She is a really great performer. It going to be very low key and alot of fun. Can you make it, Kit asked?
