The jet has touched down. Those onboard have departed. It’s time to go home, or whatever some may call it this evening.
She checks her messages on the cellphone and sees one left for her while she was in flight. Helena plays the message and it’s Leigh, bringing a smile to Helena’s face. Buttons on the phone are pressed and Helena hopes valiantly to catch her.
She applies makeup to her face to prepare for an evening she’s still unsure of. For Leigh, it’s about getting out and not becoming a hermit as her neighbor, Lacey fears. Why not? Go out, make friends, have a good time. What else is there to do tonight? The phone rings…
Leigh: Hello?
Helena: Leigh…?
Leigh: Helena! Hey, did you get my message?
Helena: Yes…I’ve missed you.
Leigh: Are you okay…everything alright with you?
Helena: I suppose it could be better or worse.
Leigh: Well…if you ever need to talk to someone, don’t be afraid to call on me. So what are you up to tonight?
Helena: Just flew back home from Canada…and I’m very tired…
Helena gives off a laugh that indicates her tiredness.
Leigh: Awww…so no making the rounds tonight?
Helena: No…tonight, I’m going to curl up into a little ball and see if the World can disappear for a while.
Leigh considers her options and takes a chance.
Leigh: Would you like some company?
Helena: I don’t know. Are you inviting yourself over?
Leigh: I haven’t seen you in a while, so I’d like to if I could. But…if you’re really tired, I understand.
Helena: No…um…by all means. Come by tonight. I would be delighted.
Leigh smiles, looking in the mirror. Maybe the hustle and bustle of the club scene won’t be so necessary after all.
Leigh: And I’m delighted for you to have me.
Helena: Great! So I’ll see you tonight then?
Leigh: Yes. I shall be there.
As Helena grins and considers her feeling of good fortune, there is a car with two women who are very close, yet so very far. Lara drives as Carmen sits quietly in the shotgun seat.
Lara: Silent treatment now?
Carmen: …Hm?
Lara: You haven’t said a word since you got off the plane.

So does Lara have feelings for Carmen or what? Helena’s having to bat them away, isn’t she? Bette, Leigh, Winnie… meanwhile, Carmen can’t even get a second look. Bring on more heavy drama, soon!
Oh goodness. Lara is going all ‘Dana’ and not saying what she wants. Dude, what are her underlying issues? Can’t wait to see what happens when she goes over to see Alice & Dana. Wait, she really wants…Carmen? Drama ensues. I stay tuned. Life is good.
hmmm… so, it looks like Carmen and Lara might eventually get together. I’m not sure how Dana and Alice feel about each other now. Looking forward to the next update!
Tina: Why are we like this? WTF? Did she just hit her head? His name is Henry…that is why they are like this…and don’t get me wrong…Her name is Candace…that is why they are like this…it’s called no COMMUNICATION…that is why they are like this. Come with some better questions Tina…geez! Let Helena have her Winnie & Leigh…leave Bette alone.
Loving it so much! So hoping Carmen and Lara will get together, and could there be hope for Bette and Tina…?
Luv this chap., Kace. Lara & Carmen FINALLY have a heart 2 heart. At least Carmen gave Lara something to think about. Its great to see that Carmen’s feelings are finally being reciprocated by Lara (although subtly). Hope Carmen doesn’t do something stupid to get Lara off her mind. Can’t wait for the next update.
