    Author Notes:

    Before she knew it, Tina found herself talking again about she and Bette.  Tina realized as she began to speak that processing this situation with Alice might be a mistake, but that thought did not stop her.  ”It’s just weird… I mean, we never really ever talked about our past relationships. It never really mattered.

    Before she knew it, Tina found herself talking again about she and Bette.  Tina realized as she began to speak that processing this situation with Alice might be a mistake, but that thought did not stop her.  ”It’s just weird… I mean, we never really ever talked about our past relationships. It never really mattered. I only knew a little about Kelly because of Kit and well you told me about you.” Tina hesitated, ”And… I’m not threatened by a deceased woman that Bette slept with 30 years ago,” she pooh-hooded, ”I know that thought popped into you’re crazy head too.”  Tina said shaking her head and rolling her eyes again, ”It’s just this madness that appears to be coming from this treasure hunt that Laura seemed to pull Bette into from the grave.”  Tina let out a long breath as she continued to unravel her thoughts.  ”Kelly showing up brought up all that business that happened in New York and it has really stirred Bette up.  I have this feeling.  I can’t describe it.  Like I know something is going to happen.  Like it was fate that brought Bette into this.  And… I’m worried.” 

    ”Wow,” Alice said, thinking that over a moment.  ”This whole thing is really bizarre.  First Laura and the research, then Kelly showing up at NYU.  It’s hard to believe.”  Alice paused, ”But, it’s kinda cool if you think about it… I mean, the whole missing painting thing, not the Kelly thing, but I can see why you would be concerned.”

    Tina sighed as a frown grew on her face, ”Bette doesn’t trust Kelly and neither do I… Can you believe that bitch told Kit that she was having an affair with Bette?”  Tina closed her eyes taking in a long breath as she shook her head, feeling her heart begin to pound.  ”Shit”, she said to herself, knowing she shouldn’t have said anything.

    ”What?” Alice said in shock. 

    Tina held a sigh, ”Nothing,” she said in a quick unconvincing manner.  ”It just seems Bette has gotten into a complicated situation…  Dealing with Kelly again.  Well, I’m scared and I’m just going to put it out there.”  She paused as she rubbed the back of her neck.  ”And I am afraid of what this fear will fuel.”  Tina knew she should have stopped talking to Alice about this.  Her chest felt as if an entire city block was sitting on it.  She had so many competing feelings about the situation and the one that seemed to be winning now was guilt about not being emotionally present for Bette during her conflict with Kelly in New York.  She tried concentrating on controlling her breathing, but every intake of air felt as if a burning dagger stabbed her lungs.

    1. Hey Superk,

      Thank you for this chapter while you are exhausted, i can imagine that as a social worker you have a real difficult time and lots of work to do. Please try to take care of yourself and be safe!

      So much mysterie and then also the worry about Covid and that utter bitch Kelly.

      Very good that Bette and Tina talk but more important is that they continue to do that.

      I am not sure if it was wise of Tina to tell Alice that much but she is a friend and means well most of the time. Glad that Bette told Peggy, if one person can help Bette it is Peggy.

      Please try to look after yourself!

    2. Thanks for the chapter….

      I am concerned about the relationship between Bette and Tina. They are still very much living in their hurt and anguish and have made very little progress in forming any semblance of a good solid relationship. Tina is not happy that Bette will not step back from any challenge. Yet that is who Bette is and is never going to change. Bette is still anguishing about the fact that Tina was not there to support her through the Kelly crap. That is never going to change – it happened…. its done and cannot be undone. They are both wondering about what Kelly is up to, but neither will sit down and blue sky what the possibilities are and propose solutions. Both are too busy in their disappointment and angst in the other. None of this is good signs for their future.

      These two do not appear to be in a frame of mind of two newly reconciled people. The are more like an aged married couple who wonder why they decided to retire when they did. They are simply not ready to be spouses, lovers, constant companions. And I do not know if they will ever be. Both their lives are more consumed with their own thoughts than with interaction with the other. This Covid shut down could be a gift of time and a proximity to actually make some progress in their relationship…. to make plans for the future, to establish time schedules, roles in the relationship, identify triggers for problems, and most of all to be parents to Angie. Angie is reflecting her parent anxiety… her parents desire to escape home and to be out and about. The less her parents are able to deal with the confinement, the less Angie will as well.

      I really want these two to do well. I want their relationship to succeed. But the more they dwell on their fears and frustrations, the harder it will be to achieve a happy and sound relationship. Its time to forgive and move on.

      And as to Kelly Wentworth? Now that Peggy knows Kelly is snooping around looking for the painting? Ask her to do what she can to keep her away from Bette. And then let it go.

      Oh? What happened to Shane? She moved in with Angie and Bette when Tina was in New York. Haven’t seen anything about her since. Since the shut down is still in progress, I would have thought she would be still around.

      Thanks for the chapter….

    4. Thank you for the chapter!

      What happen to Tina – did her cooking skills develop into Bette’s :) I thought only one person in their family could burn something during cooking :)

      And maybe it’s me – but i think they all too obsessed about Kelly. Too many mentions about that person.
