Bette hugged Tina, kissing her temple, trying to calm her down. Tina smiled, kissing her on the cheek. “Thanks…for the support…”

“Hey…what are friends for…”Bette said, earning a playful snap on the arm. Shane saw them coming near. She wave at them, making some place at the table.

“What’s up guys?” Shane asked in her calm demeanor.

Bette looked sideways at Tina, not sure if she’s ready to share this new found information about Tina’s family.

“Umm…nothing…some of T’s business meetings, I just accompanied her, that’s all.” Bette said sitting down next to Shane. Tina took the seat next to Alice.

“You’re lying…beside you’re bad liar…”Alice said, earning a deadly look from Bette. Tina glanced at her watch, it was nearly 10, and she was getting late for work, but she didn’t care much right now.

“Bette can you drop me off at the studio, I remembered that I have a meeting today.” Tina said, ready to go.

“Sure baby…no problem…” Bette said, getting up too. They said their goodbye’s and left. The ride to the studio was quiet. Tina was deep in thoughts; a frown on her forehead gave out her tenseness. She looked at Bette, taking her beauty, than exhaled deep.

“Thanks for not telling them about Victoria. I can’t deal with Alice right now.”

“It’s ok T…it’s not my place to comment that. You’ll tell them when the time’s right.” Bette smiled at her. Soon they were in front of the studio’s gates. Tina get off the car, Bette followed her. She gave her one last hug and kiss, wishing her good day. On her way back, Bette decide to stop by the Planet and talk to Kit. She parked the car, locking the doors.

Kit was still at the counter, helping to the staff. The day was busy, and they were understaffed. She spotted Bette staying there, and motioned to follow her. They went in Kit’s office, away from nosy ears. Bette sighs taking a seat on the couch, Kit set next to her.

“What had happened this morning Bette, who was that woman…” Kit asked.

“She’s Tina’s relative…”

“And what does she wants…”Kit asked again, concerned about them.

“We don’t know yet…but I’m sure we’ll find out anyway. She’s not going back, and if I’m right we’re going to hear from her very soon.”
