    Author Notes:

    the unraveling

    I received a call from Peggy Peabody a month and a half ago, offering me an opportunity in New York.  The details are pointless, but I saw it as an chance to save Tina, something that I needed to give her.  It was by my leaving LA that I saw her healing process beginning.  She wanted me as far away from her as possible, and I wanted to at least, grant her that one wish.

     

    I struggled with telling you, but knew that you would do everything in your power to get me to reconsider.  I have also known all along that you have waited for a reconciliation between Tina and me, but sadly, Tina has made it clear that she does not want that to happen.

     

    I have ached over my actions that led us here, and ached with the choice that I had to make in order to try and right at least one of my wrongs. Who knows, maybe Kit’s right, maybe I am a coward, but I would like to think not.

     

    I cannot begin to tell you how much I thank you for looking after Tina.  It offers me a slight peace of mind that I know I am undeserving of.  I know that it is not my place to ask, but would wish that you continue to do so, continue to look after her, and help her come back to her beautiful self.

     

    I miss all of you terribly, but please know that I truly believe that I made the right decision.  Tina needs to heal so that she can move forward and find someone that will make her truly happy.  I certainly do wish that I could have been that person, but clearly, fate has shown us otherwise.

     

    I have gone on too long, but again, thank you for your friendship.  I don’t know that I have always deserved it, but know that I have been so lucky to have had it.

     

    Please understand that I will not be calling for some time.  Talking to any of you, as great as it would be to do so, would do nothing but send me back in the endless spiral that I constantly found myself in after Tina left me.

     

    Lastly, I would ask that you not share this information with Tina, as I do not think that it is fair to burden her with any conversation of me.  You know, I don’t think that anyone will ever believe me when I say how truly sorry I am for what happened.  But then, if one has actions that they feel regretful for, than punishment is in order, right?  And what could be a greater punishment than losing Tina?  Knowing that she will never be a part of my life again?  I would say that I am paying the price for my deeds all right.

     

    Please let the girls know that I miss and love them, and hope to be in communication soon.

     

    Please let the healing and moving on begin.  We all have to get to a place that we can have some peace.  I wish that for all of us.

     

    All of my love and thanks-

     

    Bette

     

    Alice slowly opened her eyes and lifted her head.  What she saw in front of her terrified her.  The pages had slowly fallen out of Tina’s trembling hands, to land gently on the ground next to their table.

     

    Alice was speechless, could not get any words to escape her lips, she just continued to watch the complete unraveling of Tina.  She had never witnessed someone truly and utterly falling apart, but there it was, it was happening right in front of her own two eyes.

     

    She slowly stood and walked towards Tina, fearful of what was to come, knowing that whatever it was, she did not think that she was strong enough to assuage it.
