Tina was beyond angry. Bette had done the unthinkable. She had promised to Tina, never ever to turn into the old Bette Porter. She was torn between the decision to go home and strangle Bette, or finish her job first and then go home and strangle her wife. She paced back and forwards the room nervously, thinking and thinking over, and over again her options. She felt like a hamster in his wheel. She took her cell and dial Bette’s , pattering nervously with her foot.

“Hi baby, I was just to call you…” Bette said cheerfully

“Don’t “baby” me, I just talked to Angelica!” Tina said angrily “Yes, I know everything. She told me about the house, and the late meetings, and what the hell were you thinking sending them in Armstrong’s? And on top of everything Kit’s taking time off from her job to babysit?”

“Can we do this later, Tina?” Bette said irritated „I’m on my way to the CAC.”

“No, Bette! Are you listing to me?” Tina yelled “You promised me, that you would let me know if you couldn’t handle it!”

“I’m doing the best I can.” Bette yelled back. She exhaled deeply “Please, let’s talk later. Bye.”

Bette disconnected the line, leaving Tina in the nothing. She growled, throwing the phone to the wall, smashing him on pieces. Then her assistant, Abby walked in.

“Tina? What’s the matter? Is everything all right?” Abby asked, spotting the broken phone on the floor.

“No, it isn’t.  The production meeting is over for me. I’m going home!” Tina flops on the bed “And please finds me a new cell…”

 Tina had no other chance. She arranged one of the interviews to be in her house. She spoke to Aaron, who wasn’t very pleased with this, but he agrees in the end. Tina was determined to make this work, if not for her family, then for herself. She was very disappointed in Bette, no matter how much she loved her, Bette’s immature actions lately, brought bad memories form the past, braking Tina’s heart all over again. In the other side of the country Bette felt like a shit. She had no right to treat Tina like that. Tina was the love of her life, the woman who saved her from the black hole she was falling, the mother of her first born daughter, and most important her best friend. She fails, she fucked up royalty, and she had no excuse for her actions. Bette dials her number, hoping Tina will speak to her. She went on her voice mail, but didn’t have the courage to leave a message.  Tina packs her stuff, and took the new cell phone that Abby gave her. She dials Bette’s, and after few seconds, she answered.
