Days Without You (Part 42)
"Bette, it’s four o’clock," James said, stepping one foot into Bette’s office.
Bette didn’t even bother to look up, her eyes on the fax she had just received.
"What?"
"You confirmed with Adriana about-"
"Oh right!" Bette sighed, dropping the pen onto her desk as she held her head in her other hand. "Right, James. Thank you."
"Sure," James smiled, slipping out without another sound.
"Shit," Bette whispered under her breath as she eyed all of her work just piled on
her desk. She shook her head and put her coat on, grabbing her purse quickly after. She sped out the door before looking back to James’ desk.
"I’m coming back, so hold my calls," Bette suggested over her shoulder, still struggling with her purse.
"No problem," James said, nodding his head as Bette flew out the door.
After swearing in traffic, Bette picked up her phone and dialed Adriana.
"Hello?"
"Hello, Adriana Laurier?" Bette asked, looking ahead to the packed cars waiting for the light to change.
"Yes," Adriana acknowledged, smiling to herself, knowing who it was before being told. She had worked with Bette for quite some time to assemble her sculptures and paintings and had become acquainted with her soothing voice.
"It’s Bette Porter," Bette explained. "Listen, I’m sorry but traffic is terrible! I know I told you I’d be there by four-thirty, but I think I’m going to be late. I’m just lucky I have your number on my phone," she sighed.
"Oh, that’s not a problem," Adriana smiled again, looking to the floor. "I’ll be in today anyways, so … I’ll be waiting."
Bette frowned her eyebrows in confusion with Adriana’s tone. "Uh … okay."
"So, you’ll let me know if you can use this piece, right?" Adriana added, trying to sound as professional as possible and distract Bette from her slip-up.
"Right," Bette agreed, "Listen, I have to get off the phone, but I’ll be there shortly." She smiled, deciding to give Adriana the benefit of the doubt.
"Okay, bye," Adriana said earning a goodbye from Bette before they each hung up.
Bette shook her head and tried to relax her tense shoulders as she phoned Tina.
"Hey baby," Tina said after seeing her caller ID.

So sweet to have someone be able to tell your mood from just a few words, and to come running to fix it. Sweet stuff Biissexi, Thank you, Md
I knew Adriana was going to be trouble. I’m glad Bette yelled at her. I hope Tina has a nice visit to the gallery. Thanks for posting!
Yep saw that one coming. Bette should have slapped her but then again Adriana might have liked it. It’s okay, Bette’s on her way home and Tina can rub the area and make it all better!
i’m glad bette took care of that bitch and called tina right away… and tina can rub it and make it all better… but now wouldn’t a side trip to adrian’s… to make sure she doesn’t look at bette again… love this… and see i am home and no tibette loving… lol… PPS
Well I can’t blame Adriana xD I’m glad Bette reacted that way =) and I’m even happier she told Tina about it. In the past I’m sure Bette would have kept it to herself, but they’re comunicating well =D biissexi I’m glateful you still make time to keep writing this story =) Lets see if Tina can cheer Bette up a little =P
Very good chapter!!! I loved that Bette called a told Tina. Now Tina get to your woman!!!! Thank you PPS
I liked the fact that Bette told Tina bout what happened and didn’t find the need to keep it from her, and this woman’s reaction was normal, Bette is so attractive and appealing,and seeing somebody in a serious relationship doesn’t stop most people from hitting on others these days, and I don’t know why??? Thank you my dear friend, you are amazing and you know what to write and how to write it. Post soon dear. Love

Dislike men and women that think they are god gift to man kind. Did she think that Bette needed that piece of art so badly that she would cheat on her wife and baby to get it. She is a piece of s&&t, So glad that Bette called Tina and toldher, Sge sounded like a little child, She touch me. Guess the bi^%h is going to say that Bette maded the first move..The calls to Tina will help Bette cause. Trouble is on the way. thanks
