Chapter 10
Tina nods, her eyes still on Bette.
(Tina) OK
Later in the week, Helena and Tina are sharing a drink in a small and trendy bar.
(Tina smiles) It’s good to see you. How long are you in town?
Helena smiles warmly and reaches out to affectionately touch Tina’s forearm.
(Helena) Only until Friday unfortunately
(Tina sighs) I miss us being on the same coast
(Helena) I know, me too. Although I’ll be here for work a lot in the coming months. We’ll probably see more of each other than we would have otherwise
Tina sips her drink and Helena watches her.
(Helena) I never asked, how was Majorca?
(Tina smiles) It was great
(Helena) It lived up to all of my hype?
Tina looks at her for a moment.
(Tina) Yes, it did. I had a good time
(Helena) Well, I’m pleased
Helena smiles at her and they both take a sip of wine.
(Helena) I had a strange phone conversation with an associate of mine here, Alice Pieszecki. Do you know her?
(Tina) Um, yes actually. We met at an event recently. She was a bit, unusual. I couldn’t work her out
(Helena) Well you’d be the first to if you do manage
Tina smiles and Helena pauses for another sip of wine.
(Helena) She called me because she was trying to track down an enchanting blonde lesbian who her friend met on holiday in Majorca recently
Tina chokes on a sip of wine before composing herself.
(Tina) OK. Sorry why are you telling me this?
(Helena) Named Tina
They look at one another.
(Tina) It’s a coincidence
(Helena) Is it?
Tina takes a deep breath and stares back at her.
(Tina) Of course it is. Can we please drop this?
(Helena) Of course we can
Helena smiles at her.
(Helena) Forget I said anything
They both have another sip of wine.
(Helena) But Tina, I just need to say that I hope you know you can talk to me about anything. We go back a long way, further than you and Andrew even. You can talk to me
Tina frowns down at her wine glass, and speaks softly without raising her eyes.
(Tina) Helena, I can’t
Helena watches her for a moment.
(Helena) OK. We’ll I’m not going anywhere, so if you want to talk in future just let me know
Tina raises her eyes and they share an affectionate look.
(Tina) Thank you
(Helena smiles) No problem. So, tell me what else is going on? How’s work?

Bette is way too nice. There is no way I would even be in the same room, let alone have drinks with Tina after the lies. I have always been on team Tina, but I am having trouble accepting this behavior from her. I am in no way going to drop this story, I am a Tibette forever fan.

Tina feels like a jigsaw that is still missing pieces, lying within another puzzle that is slowly being revealed. A truly enthralling tale.

Surely Tina is not naïve enough to believe that Helena doesn’t have some idea of what happened in Majorca? And with Alice snooping around and being in the Potter Gallery she is a possible friend of Bette’s and now an acquaintance of Helena’s too. Tina’s Majorca trip is about to become pubic knowledge…. is she ready for that? I do not know what kind of guy Andrew is, but I have a feeling he is not going to be pleased with the information nor the fact that is will soon be in the public sphere. Tina is headed for a huge storm… whatever life she was planning on with Andrew may never come to fruition. She should have had more discussion with Bette while she was in Majorca as to who they were, where they lived, their professions and so forth. Too late now…. the dominoes are about to fall and there are going to be a lot of hurt feelings all the way around.
Great story… keep it going.
