    What is love? – Chapter 19


    The Gallery

    Fortunately for Bette, her gallery was hosting another special exhibit and it kept her occupied so she didn’t think about Tinaas much. Bette was extremely busy working with the artist and planning how to use the gallery space to show her work to greatest effect. Both were hoping to make some significant sales.

    Gillian had been invaluable in putting together this show. Bette was pleased that she was able to work so closely with a former lover and both had kept their dealings on a very professional level. They hadn’t touched on their personal lives, but Bette knew that Jill had been right earlier when they were at the restaurant. Bette really didn’t want anyone, but Tina.

    “I think I’ve done all the damage that I can do,” smiled Gillian as they looked at the gallery.

    “Jill, thanks,” smiled Bette. “So are you off to Chicago today?”

    “Tomorrow morning. I’ll be gone about a month. I’ll phone after the exhibit and see how it went.”

    She located her purse and briefcase, walked up to a smiling Bette and gave her a firm kiss on the lips.

    “I wish you the greatest success, darling. With the exhibit and Tina.”

    “I’m afraid I’m more likely to have success with the exhibit.”

    “I never count Bette Porter out,” said Jill as she headed toward the entrance to the gallery.

    As she watched Jill leave, Bette hoped she was right about Tina. For the millionth time she wondered how she would get Tina back. And then she wondered how she would get over Tina. And then she wondered how she would get Tina back.

    She felt like a fool for her actions at Milk and realized she was fortunate that Shane and Red had stepped in so fast. Her actions probably hadn’t helped her with Tina either. Bette was glad, however, that the incident occurred or she might have gone home with the lovely brunette she had picked up.

    She shook her head as though she could dislodge these thoughts and tried to return her mind to the exhibit.

    The upcoming exhibit featured an artist that Bette had wanted at the big exhibit some months ago, but she hadn’t been available. So they were going to have a special exhibit with a smaller group of people invited.

    1. Tina should not go back until Betty truly knows, tells, and can show Tina how much she loves and appericate her physically and emotionally. KEEP HER STRONG AND SANE.

    2. i am with Tinas mind..she cant run after Bette cuz Bette didnt know what she want..and get back to her is only be hurt twice..Bette need to suffer..be brave soldier Tina..lol..great chappy thanks :o)

    3. ahhh… my favorite characters in the story (besides B and T of course)… is tina’s mind and heart! heh. Speaking of baseball, and since you mentioned chicago, I am from Houston, soooo GO ASTROS!
      Still waiting patiently for you to update faster and make the chapters longer…. pretty please? with cherry on top?

    4. That’s it, Tina! Follow Alice’s fishing theory — give Bette some sugarplum (does fish like sugarplum? whatever, you know what I mean, do you?), then hook her up tightly, hahahaha…

      Shane is definitely a logician. Her technique on inference is extraordinary.

      If I’m going with the flow, I hope you’re not Yolenda type, coz it seems she doesn’t like people who 100% agree with her, like me to you. =P

    5. wonderful chappy. can feel the confusion of these two. who is gonna make the first move??? someone has to do something. love how you are writing this. love shane. well, actually all of them. its great how they are all telling tina the same thing. thanks.

    6. tina forget about the heart and the mind right know because they are confusing the hell out of u. if bette is what u want go get her.
      JFreez im from chicago and think the
      White Sox are so boring that i dont care who wins.

    7. If Tina capitulates and returns to Bette, what has changed? Of course, Shane is Yoda. She knows all. Going back to Bette is probably going to align all the stars in the cosmos and reorder the planets’ orbits around the sun and render all to be right with the world of Weho.

      I’m from a place goegraphically between Houston and Chicago. I think a ‘Stros-WSox Series will be boring as hell, but I am glad for The Rocket. I’m sure the TV network execs are about to cut their own throats, as we have no Yankees or Red Sox in the classic.

      Love this story. I’m coming around to admitting it. Is it cheating if I read other stories? Thanks!

    8. Before it gets started, don’t any of you brand me as a Yankees or Red Sox lover.

      I don’t watch baseball because they make too much money. Same for the NBA. Plus, they’re both boring games.

      Okay then…

    9. caught up and loved the chapters. I adore how you are writing the battle between heart and mind. It has happened to all of us. Something has got to give soon…..thanks! post soon

    10. This story, that I was initially following only cursorily, has somehow crept up to become my most favorite story currently. I particulalry appreciate your writing style – important details are revealed in this seemingly off-hand manner; in fact, there aren’t any big revelations at all but all the nuances put together make for an intense portrayal of emotions. I can’t explain it, but I love your style of telling this story.

      And those little details – padding about in stocking feet and rushing to don the high heels when someone comes in – are captured so well. Many thanks. I have added you to my list of fav authors.

    11. I love the TEXAS RANGERS, didn’t miss one game. Glad that Houston is in the playoffs. Its a game of chance. Tina should go to the opening, She can take someone if she care to do so. Bette is stubborn, she needs to tell Tina how she feels/ Needs to learn to say I LOVE YOU TINA KENNARD. thanks
