Mi Casa Es Su Casa. Chapter 5. Finale.
Home, Work, Everywhere
Tina and Bette tried very hard to see each other during the work week, but it was very difficult. For a while, every attempt to meet was cancelled by one or the other and the crushing disappointment each felt made them, for a while, abandon attempts to meet during the week. They missed each other, though, and each independently decided to not let potential disappointment have so much power.
They contorted in all sorts of ways to meet. Tina changed her health club membership to Bette’s so that they could work out at a branch midway between their offices. (That had been a miscalculation, though, because their sweating bodies and the proximity of the showers and locker rooms were very distracting.) They met for coffee. They drove one another to or from the airport. They brought lunch to each other’s offices. Once, Bette had managed to find legitimate gallery business in the same place to which Tina was traveling on business, so they traveled together.
They also met for dinner and, from at least one perspective, these dinner meetings were almost always a disaster. They always took their own cars because they were to be heading afterwards to their respective homes. Even when they decided to go together to one of their homes, it was only to be for a little while. When it turned out to be for more than a little while, the visitor was still supposed to go home early because, after all, they both had work in the morning. And when even that plan didn’t work, the visitor was supposed to get up early enough to go home and change for work.
Bette and Tina wound up borrowing work clothes often enough that they finally kept a change of work clothes at each others houses. Over time, Bette’s house also had one of Tina’s blow dryers, and Tina’s condo had a set of Bette’s many hair products.
They had their respective toothpastes until Tina ran out at her condo and tried Bette’s. She liked it, so she switched.

The Bette Porter Gallery
Bette’s assistant Jane knew something did not seem quite right, but she couldn’t figure out exactly what it was. It bothered her all morning whenever she paused long enough in her duties to let her mind wander. In late morning, she looked up from her desk to see Bette in the distance walking across the gallery and she smiled since she had solved her puzzle.

I adore your B&T. I always hate to see your stories come to an end… like Bette’s pants, five chapters is just too short. Your lovely humor is so fun to read. Thanks, Spumoni!
Bette was too cute with the expectant looks at every pause in the conversation. Loved every bit of this story, Spumoni, it was a total treat. I do hope you have more of these Space Between tales in the works. Thanks!
I am sad to see this come to an end. It was a fun story to read. I am a huge Tibette fan and to see where your mind took B&T before they really became B&T was very interesting. Glad that Tina is keeping the chair. I hope to see more of your story telling skills soon.
I love this story so much. It always makes me smile. Great writing. Update ASAP.
AGREED, THOSE LEAVING TIMES MUSTA BEEN REAL HARD…
