Eric: This is my wife, Tina. SHe is head of development at Alpha Ville.

Bette: Hi, It’s nice to meet you.

Her voice was so beautiful and sensual. It sended shivers down her spine and it made her feel warm and cold at once.

Tina: Nice to meet you to…

Tina’s voice was almost a whisper.

Eric: So, Bette, I was wondering, um… how would Catherine Opie feel about me blowing up that print there to about 5 by 6 feet?

Bette smiled a small smile.

Bette: Why don’t you ask her yourself? She is right over there.

Bette pointed at a woman standing taking to a whole bunch of serious looking people.

Eric: Are you coming, Tina?

Tina: No, no. I’ll stay here.

He frowned but walked away. Tina sighed. Bette was still smiling a small smile at Tina.

Bette: You want me to show you around.

Tina smiled.

Tina: That would be nice. Do you have time for that?

Bette: I have always time for a beautiful lady.

The brunette winked and the blonde turned red. Bette let out a small, low and sexy chuckle.

Bette: Come on.

Bette guided Tina around for a while with her hand resting on the blondes back, that made Tina feel warm and cold at the same time. Tina was in an awe of how the owner talked about the art work.

Bette: So, how long have you and Eric been married?

Tina snapped out of her stare and was brought back to reality. Eric, she was completely forgotten about him.

Tina: Uhm, 5 years.

Bette: I heard him talking about a son, Nathaniel.

Tina: Yes, that’s our youngest child, he is 3. But we have another one, a daughter, Patricia. She is 4.

Bette: Oh, that’s a nice family.

Tina raised her eyebrows. She sighed.

Tina: Yes…

Bette: Oh, I get the feeling that it’s not totally okay.

Tina: Well, every family has its problems right?

Bette: Yes, yes… Let’s go on.

Tina shook of the feeling she had about her family and they did the other half of ‘the tour’ and Tina walked back to look at one particular piece. Eric had bought a print and so they could stay for the dinner. Tina and Bette were happy about that. Tina liked the passionate woman. She talked about art like it was the only thing on earth. Tina was still watching that one piece. Bette walked up behind her.
