Bette learns a lesson…
Bette walked to the parking lot from the Planet doors, drinking the last of her mineral water. She barely noticed the gnarled old woman hunched over the garbage can looking for discarded bottles.
Bette muttered as she strode by, her four hundred dollar Ferragamo pumps clicking on the cement of the sidewalk.
The sound of Bette approaching brought the woman as upright as she could be. She looked Bette up and down and felt nothing but pity.
Bette noticed her and slowed her pace. She was about to toss the bottle into the recycling bin, but silently offered it to the woman instead.
“Thank you,” she replied. “I appreciate that you handed it to me instead of throwing it away.”
Her voice startled Bette. It was soft and lyrical. It wasn’t remotely the grizzled rasp she expected to come out of someone who appeared to have a two-pack-a-day habit.
“I wouldn’t throw it away,” Bette replied. She had slowed to a stop. “But I know you’ll recycle it too.”
“I will,” the woman nodded. “Is something troubling you?”
“Nothing unusual,” Bette replied.
“I sense that there is something more,” the woman encouraged. “You have a specific wish.”
“I just wish I could tell the truth for once in my life,” Bette sighed. “It would solve so many problems.”
“Deceit is the path down which a fool travels,” the old woman said. She seemed to speak from a wise source, this woman. Bette wanted to talk more.
“I am a fool,” Bette said, thoughtfully. “But I can’t seem back track enough so that the errors I’ve made don’t cast me in a bad light.”
“So they’re not lies, they’re errors,” the old woman nodded. “You can’t help them; they are merely mistakes.”
“I’ll stop soon, I will,” Bette said. “I just have to figure a few things out.”
“Yes, you will speak the truth, I believe that to be the case,” the old woman said, with a glint in her eye. “I wish you good luck and God speed.”
“I’m sorry, I don’t carry any change or anything,” Bette said, thinking the woman might want something.
“I want for nothing my dear girl,” she replied. “I have my integrity. I only ask for thoughtfulness. You have granted me that.”

You are the best!:)
Well that was different! Bette struck by a truth spell! Lets just hope Tina doesn’t have a similar one and say she’d prefer to just stick to the hot sex for now! Or Jodi gets it and tells Bette to take the stick out of her ass!! Very enjoyable read.
Bette…forced to be honest. I like it. Thank you!
cool!
LMAO JKS, I loved it! That was soooo well written. The line “. “Write her a note, send her a text, drop her an email. End it however you want. Hey, I’ll do a podcast and make sure it’s subtitled”! just broke me up….I’m still laughing. A brilliant example of your creative genious!
Hilarious. This totally fixed my shitty mood. Thanks.
That was better then the show tonight! Thanks!
JKS, this story is heart warming and equally funny. The part were Alice was asking Bette questions really cracked me up..LOL!
Now this, swim, my dear, was pure unadulterated incredible utter genius! ~~ Did I make it clear how much I loved this?
I loved that….thanks…
That was fun….! Keep spinning those great stories.
don’t know if i’ve ever commented on one of your stories before (though i’ve meant to), but i just had to with this one….LOVED it SO much, had me cracking up my face hurts. sorta reminded me of “Liar, Liar,” one of the few movies i can tolerate jim carrey in & appreciate his humor. thx for this :-)
We love you, Swimmie, oh yes we do…We love your writing, everything you do… When you’re not on this site, we’re blue…
Wonderful! How about having the framily in the truth zone for as long as they can stand it.
Honest Bette is a good way to start. I don’t think that Bette is being dishonest, but more like clueless as to what is going on inside of her head and heart. She has emotions running wild inside mostly for Tina.
Wouldn’t that make for a hilarious episode..I love your writing and can’t wait for more.
Now that was a hoot! Very interesting twist at the end with Bette having the 2nd interaction with an old woman and deciding she needed to come clean. Marvelous job!
It kind of reminded me of “Liar, Liar” with Jim Carey, as well. How awesome would it be to have B & T actually be honest & real with one another about their feelings? **sigh***It would be amazing. This was fun to read. Thanks.
Love that is was a fream,but it sure did wake Bette up thanks
She aren’t neither!!! Now, what I would like to see is Tina being honest, for once…I know Bette is messed up now, she is afraid..but she has always been with and for Tina, the affair was a mistake, but she always loved Tina… and the same has not been true in reverse.
Hey JKS, Brilliant and husterical. If only IC had decided to go that way. I think that the show will be a whole lot messier than your wonderful version. Perfection! Much gratitude from Your Loyal Fan.
hilarious…
ROFLMAOOOOO!!!! This was freaking brilliant! You had me in tears. Thanks JKS!
That was so hilarious… just left me similing. Thank you
xD
So Good!!!
That was the most hilarious and spot on writing I have read! Thank you, I really wish Bette had to tell the truth like Jim Carrey did in “Liar, Liar.” Love it, thanks for posting.

k, why in hells name would you have wanted to post under a different name. that was fucking hysterical. i loved it. thx
That was funny and great, love it. Thanks J!
