SWEET MEMORIES – Chapter 6
Chapter 6
Helena sat at her desk drumming her fingers as a means to stay awake as she read a script.
“Why in bloody hell did I tell Tina I would do this?” she muttered to herself, stifling a yawn.
She quickly pressed the intercom that connected her with her assistant who happened to be there on a Saturday catching up on paperwork. Helena made it known that she wasn’t required to be in on the weekend just because she was. Stacey assured her that it was to merely catch up on work, which she had already made a decent attempt at minimizing.
“Stacey I hate to bother you,” Helena said stifling another yawn, “I need some caffeine if I’m going to get through this bloody script. Can you get me a cappuccino?”
“That’s not the one with the caffeine. An espresso is the one with the jolt.”
“Can I have that then please?”
“We’re all out,” Stacey said timidly. “Tina drank the last instant one yesterday morning.”
“Tea?” Helena was beginning to sound irritated. “Can I have hot tea then?”
“I’ll be right in with it Helena.”
Stacey made her way to the small, private kitchen that Helena and Tina shared between their offices. She began to search through the tea bags to see which one they had the most of. That was the deciding factor on what tea Helena would be consuming. When Stacey heard a noise behind her, she quickly turned around startled. With her hand to her chest, feeling her heart pounding, she sighed from relief at seeing Angelica smiling at her.
“Hi Stacey.”
“You scared me Angie. How are you?”
“I’m good thanks. Did my mom tell you I made the cheerleading squad?” Angelica beamed ear to ear with pride.
“Yes she did, she was so proud of you. Congratulations!”
“Thanks.”
“What are you doing here on a Saturday?” Stacey asked.
“I have to work here for a punishment. I got suspended for getting into a fight.”
“Ouch,” Stacey said. “I guess your mom doesn’t mess around does she?”
“Neither one of them does,” Angelica said sadly making Stacey smile at her.
“Did you want something to drink?”
“Actually, I need some help and I was hoping you’d do me a favor?” Angelica looked hesitant peaking Stacey’s interest.

Am I first? Hee Hee…..of course I would be right? That is the one benefit of posting the story for you. Gotta get rid of that shitty MAC and get a Dell!!! Okay…**climbing back up on my soapbox** WHAT IN THE HELL IS HELENA THINKING???? As you were reading me this chapter, more and more I kept thinking to myself WHAT THE F*CK!!?? As soon as she sensed Angie digging, she should have been cautious as to the onslaught of questions that was going to ensue. ONCE the did, she should have then said something like “um…pardon me, I forgot something on the fax machine….” She should have RAN LIKE A JACK RABBIT to find Tina and figure out how far the answers should go. I don’t know, I felt a little discomfort in how much Helena was revealing to Angie. I mean, what if Bette and Tina had preferred to NOT discuss their sexual pasts?????? EEEEKKKK….that just didn’t sit well. BUT, as you can see…**climbing down off soapbox**….the fact you are able to draw so much emotion from your readers is the sign of a brilliant writer. You have a way about you G, you got the touch and you know how to use it. Thanks so much for coming back and sharing your talent with us.I can’t wait to see what is next….Hugs and Kisses
Wow. Poor Angelica so many unanswered quesitons. She really needs to have a talk with her Mom’s. Maybe after she talks to everyone she can set them straight. Kinda feel bad for Kristen, but then anyone who’s ever seen B&T together regardless of the situation could never miss the love. Man, do I wish IC would get a clue.
angie and her questions… and i like how helena handled her… and kristen… well everyone knows i am a TIBETTER… but i do feel sorry for her… and i’m glad she is moving away so she can get on with her own life… and now i just hope bette and tina see the light… loving your story… please continue
Sorry Gumby for falling so far behind. Kept feeling really tired then woke up today with pink eye. Not a cute picture at all. I love this story with how you took the past and put into the future of Angie and her two moms. What Angie does not know is that the woman in her mom’s paths is leaving soon. I am sure when all is said and done that Angie will be very angry with both of her moms.
Gumby…Your writing is amazing and I just lurve this story. I love coming home from work and seeing that you’ve posted. Kristen is a good soul but it’s hard to be second fiddle with no chance of ever being first. PPS.
damn that was good and long!!!!!! did i say that out loud anyway helna you did a great job handling angie and the q she asked… kris sorry u have to go but glad u can see the writing on the will it might take the 2 genious see it longer.. tell allllllllllllllll i want monoply for christmas
Well..well…well…Helena knows how to sugar coat sh*t…lol…she remembers the hell she put Bette thru. Granted she didn’t cause Bette to cheat with Candace but she did her fair share of adding to the misery. Will Bette & Tina be pissed when they find out Helena basically told their life story? I do feel a little sorry for Kristen she is fighting a losing battle unless this is part of her game plan…is she REALLY moving away? I see Chicki has resorted to doing Dell commercials…lol. Keep posting.
When Helena said she dated Tina I kept waiting for a big slap to the face or something. =O I guess I feel bad for Kristen. Okay yeah I do a little bit.
Am really enjoying the twists and turns down this road. I think Angie has lots of hills to climb and tight turns to maneuver before she reaches her destination. But in the intervening time I am definitely enjoying the ride! Bring on Alice and her version next. I am glad Kristen is on her way out…was starting to like her a little…maybe a good on for Helena?
That was a great chapter G. I wonder how much Angie is going to dig up. Hrmm…. can’t wait to see. Post soon. Ness
awe crap I feel for Kris, that sucks!!!! Make is nice, let someone come along and meet her b4 the show something, she doesn’t deserve the hurt!!!!!
Ok, I feel badly for Kristen, clearly, I mean, I AM human (debatably), but… well… I just can’t help seeing this as just what B&T need. As for Helena, she probably should have kept her mouth shut and trusted B&T to fill Angie in on their own terms.
I feel real bad for Kristen but she is a smart lady and she knows Bette belongs with Tina. I hope Kristen finds someone deserving of her love. This story rocks, post soon.
So entertaining and well written. Thank you.
LMFAO!!!!! Laurel and I were just enjoying our usual picnic with our daughter when she brought up how much we enjoy your different versions of our relationship. Seriously, we love them! Just as much as you love your Ton-Ton! How is she doing? Does she still think you’re cheating on her with the blow-up Laurel? Never fear your secret is safe with us …. oops! Hey, if you had to choose again between the blow-up doll of Laurel or the blow-up doll of Jenny’s mom what would you do? I think we both know the answer to that, since you and Jenny’s mom are the real-deal-holyfield! Mucho-macho-maxo Amore XOXOXXXOOO T P.S. Thanks for the shout, back at ya buddy. Seriously though, I love your writing, always looking for a post from gumbo, you actually keep me coming back for more. Don’t let that get to your head.
poor angie…maybe she should talk to alice or shane? anyway, i’m happy kristen will be gone soon, hopefully bette won’t try to stop her…i feel bad for her but she’s right, it’s either all or nothing and with tina in the picture there never be all for kristen
I think that Tina and Bette must talk to Angie before she find more about their moms past than she should. i hope Helena talk to Tina to let her know about her talk with Angie. Even i rathe B&T together, Kirsten loves so much Bette because she is willing to let her go in order to Bette be happy with Tina and not her, is a hard action but unselfish. wow Gumby you are doing great.
Bette and Tina have alot of expalnin to do, Can’t wait til Angie finds out about Henry. Post soon…. ;-)
Wow Gumby, I am drawn to this story like Madonna to a Malawian baby. Memo to Angie: Dear Angie, although your wish to have Bette and Kristen break up will come true, I would strongly advise you to avoid the pool, Bette’s bedroom…hell, maybe even the kitchen after hours. The point I’m trying to make is whether your mom knows it or not, she’ll be engaging in some letting go/break-up sex. Now, unless you want to stumble upon Sexfest ’06 and have your eyes burn, I suggest you follow my advice. Memo to TiBette: When we avoid issues they fester and, at some point, are often unleashed in a variety of negative ways…I think this is also a memo to Michael Richards. Virtual high-5 and looking forward to the next chapter, Gumby!
See Gumby, this is why you’re on my fav author list. I totally believe that B & T would avoid telling Angie about their early life and breakup… and that it would come back to haunt them. Thanks for writing it!
Gumby, This is such a joy to read as Angelica hesitantly opens up to Helena and then gets the shock of her little life as Helena tactifully tells Angelica her part of this tortured past. Interslicing this with Tina and Kirsten’s talk was heart breaking. She wants Bette to love her like Bette loves Tina but is strong enough to know that this is a false hope. Bette’s heart belongs to Tina. I do hope that Tina can follow Kristen’s request and this will result to the much wanted reconcillation betewn B and T. More please and keep on entertaining and enlightening me. Thank you so much for this morning delight. Your Loyal Fan.
As the mom of a 12 year old with an ex…I want to commend you for the sensitive way in which you are dealing with Angie’s need to know and her desire to get her moms back 2gether…we went thru this with our child over 2 years ago and it got really stressful for all of us and the other parent’s partner who did not cope as maturely as you have portrayed Kristen…eventually we put our child’s needs first but did not get back 2gether…it wasn’t an easy decision to make becuz of course you really love your kid and want to what’s best…we decided what was best was to stay apart but co-parent…but at bigger geographical distance than B and T have…it’s not perfect but we work at it…Thank you for exploring this from Angie’s perspective and I thought Helena was really great with how she told Ange the truth about herself and yet would not relay the ‘rumour’ stuff…Angie really does need to get that from B and T and she is old enuff to handle it otherwise she wouldn’t be searching for answers…PPS, really enjoying the intensity, sensitvity of all the relationships you present.
Excellent as always! What an awkward position Helena is in! You totally surprised me with the Kristen thing. But you know what that leaves the door open for…great chapter!
LOVE THIS STORY, CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT…..GREAT WRITING!!!!!!!!!
She sounds a lot like her Aunt alice also. Just hope that Bette doesnt take a nose dive when Kristen leaves. Maybe Tina will pick up the broken pieces. thanks
ohoh I forgot: I applaud Kirsten and give her a great big hug for her bravely… she turned out unlike the way I thought she would… New York eh? Maybe she and Winnie can become an item??? ;)
O.o OH MY GOD! So much happened! Wowowowowowow! Ive tottaly fallen in love with this story! Angie is gonna be so heartbroken when she finds outBette has cheated… But even more so when she finds out the reason of their last breakup :S Well… pls dont make us wait long for an update, because THIS IS GOOOOOOOOOD
Oh Helena in trouble, when Bette or Tina find out they gonna kick her ass lol. Is good that Kristen is step back, this is good for her and Bette and Tina and Angei too!
