Posthumous Wisdom (23)
Previously…(Chap 19)
Bette: Yes. You knew from the beginning of this thing that I had a daughter. Moving for me is not an option. My life is in L.A. where my child lives. So yes, I assumed if we were going to try and make a go of this that you would move to L.A.
Jodi: Bette we never talked about that. I never offered you that assurance. The nature of my work the kind of person that I am, I’m never going to commit to spending my life in one place.
Bette: Same as you’re never going to commit to spending your life with one person?
Jodi: And we’re back to that
Bette: Well, it’s true isn’t it
Jodi: We’ve been over this. I’ve agreed to be monogamous with you for the moment because that’s important to you. You can’t expect me to say that things will never change
Bette: Why not?
Jodi: I can’t believe we are having this conversation like this
Bette: It’s not like you were in the humour for talking while you were here
Jodi: It was your weekend with Angelica
Bette: What has that got to do with anything?
Jodi: This is getting ridiculous
Bette: We finally agree on something
Jodi: I think we’ve both said enough. We should both take some time to cool off and think about what’s been said. I’ll talk to you tonight.
Jodi has signed out
“Fuck” Bette exclaimed as she shoved her keyboard away from her. “She didn’t even give me time to tell her I’ll be busy tonight with Tina coming over.”
__________________________________________________________________________________
Bette sat looking at her laptop screen. The work she was doing was finished and now she was faced with a decision. She could see that Jodi was online but was she ready to continue their difficult conversation from yesterday. She had thought of it often in the hours between then and now but she remained unsure of what to say, unsure of what she wanted to say and most worryingly unsure of what she wanted. Waiting to find answers to those questions was not the solution though. She knew that working out the answers involved talking to the artist. Reluctantly she signed herself in but left the initiation of the conversation up to the woman who had ended it so abruptly yesterday.

That was a very realistic dialogue. Great job on this!!! PPS
It’s so true to their characters. THERE IS HOPE FOR BETTE AND TINA. I loved them from the being. Tina isn’t evil when she’s with Bette. But when she is alone she is evil. Keep up the good workLove your Story.
long distance relationships don’t work, especially 3000 miles apart, although I do like Bette and Jodi (sorry Bette/Tina fans) I also do not see it lasting. Another great chapter, well two actually since I just read previous one!
IM break up… wow let me find some boxes and help bette pack jodie’s shit and ship it!! what a great chapter!!
Thank God! The character of Jodie seemed to have so much potential before she was actually introduced on the show. She both annoyed and intriguied me almost immediatley, but her and Bette just never wouldv’e lasted. Yay, for instant messaging! Glad things are finally over between them… And I can’t believe I’m going to say this (I mean REALLY can’t) but a scene showing Jenny’s response to her letter is a little overdue. P.S. My comments are almost a month later than everyone else’s, not even sure if you go back and read the ones for old chapters, but I’ll keep on posting. Great damn story!
i’m sorry that it ends that way,but yyyyeeeeeeeeees finaly now here comes tina thats the way it should be.
The entire dialogue is amazing, very realistic and well written. You’re a very talented writer, I admire how you manage to write with such insight which does justice to every character, no-one is the underdog here =) Thanks, and keep going!
I agree, your dialogue was incredibly realistic and strong. This story is becoming one of my favorites because of your talent. Thank you!
I am a silent reader but I had to comment. THe dialogue was very real and totally relateable. I’ve been there before.Hopefully Bette will begin to reavaluate her feelings for Tina great job.
Thanks for the update, wondering! I echo the other comments on the great dialog. You write all the characters very realistically. I don’t think Jodi and Bette belong together. It may have been a decent rebound relationship for Bette, but, would never work long-term. PPS!
