Chapter 14 – Good triumphs over evil

”Can we go to the patio? It is more comfortable there, we recently brought new chairs and light bulbs”
Everyone went to the courtyard, taking fruit, berries, cheese, and champagne with them. Bette said she would join them in a couple of minutes because she had to finish working on the exhibition plan. Alice rolled her eyes and said she was betting $ 100 that Bette would arrive in a couple of hours instead of a few minutes. Tina smiled at the phrase and patted Bette’s waist as she entered the house. Alice gave Shane a meaningful look when she saw Tina’s gesture, and Shane shook her head and gave her a look that meant ”stay out of it.”
”Tee, what’s up with this guy who broke into the house? Is everything going according to plan?”
Shane asked, looking at Tina with concern.
”Oh, Gosh, please don’t remind me of that. I’m so tired of this topic, and Bette has been mired in these proceedings for the past few days. Unpleasant experience.”
”Is Angie okay?” Alice also became more serious.
”Yes, she’s fine. She goes to see Ingrid again, they have a good contact.”
”Oh, I remember this Ingrid. Hot.”
”Shane! Did you sleep with Angie’s therapist?” Alice was looking at her friend with her mouth open like an actor’s, and Tina was smiling mischievously at them.
”She wasn’t her therapist at the time. She was… my therapist, okay?” Shane also said it with a kind grin.
They chatted for a while, but Bette still wasn’t there, and Tina was getting chilly. She asked her friends if they needed plaids and went inside to get some.
”I told you they were fucking again. Look at them!” Alice tried to whisper it, but her whisper was as loud as someone’s scream.
”Even if it is, what now? It’s none of our business.”
”Of course it’s our business! Why are they hiding?”
”Maybe they’re not hiding it. Do they need to make it official? You’re like a curious child.”
”Don’t you even care?? Tina’s been here all day for a reason…” Alice narrowed her eyes and tapped her fingers on the table like a detective working on an important case.

So Eddie has been dealt with, but Angie feels sorry for him. This is not good. Her mom was pushed into broken glass and injured and she took up for Eddie rather than defend her mother. That is not good. Eddie represented a threat to her two moms and yet she is defending him because of his family. Having a bad family does not justify bad behavior. Having a bad upbringing does not justify breaking into a house to talk to someone who has been avoiding you for a while. A bad upbringing does not justify putting your hands on anyone.
So Angie has had her first sexual experience with Eddie? I sure hope they used protection. Its going to be chaos if Angie ends up pregnant with Eddie’s child. That would be a whole new set of problems for Bette and Tina as well as Angie.
Bette needs a James in this story. Someone who can run the gallery with organization and grace in Bette’s absence and only refers the big problems to Bette. Then Bette would have more time to devote to her family. Of course there will always be times when she will have to spend long days at the gallery, but with the right team, they would be less frequent.
Now…. thank you for the posting….. can’t wait for the next chapter..
Totally agree with all you say. If Eddie had not been stopped I suspect he would have raped Angie. Bette needs to know about Angie and Eddie having sex. Tina cannot keep that from her. Angie needs to get her mind right. And Bette most certainly needs a James ASAP.
Yeah, you can expect anything from people like Eddie. James is very much needed, but it is unlikely that after ~10 years, he is still interested in being just Bette’s assistant. I don’t think career growth has passed him by :)
Yes, Bette needs a professional who she can trust as much as she can herself. Based on her character, it seems to me that it is difficult for her to give instructions and then not double-check everything. Hence the workload at work.
Thank you!
Yeah, Angie behavior about this Eddie are very strange. And yeah, therapy maybe good, but i’m prefer that she talked with her mothers, not with therapist
It would be so great if we could discuss all the problems with our parents and not avoid some topics. It would be a better world. :)
So maybe this is just teenage angst… her first boyfriend, her first sexual experience…. of course she is going to defend him, if he is the shithole that he appears to be then her decision to sleep with him looks really bad…. so in teenager logic it makes sense to defend, deflect, dodge.
Or maybe Angie has suffered more than everyone realizes with the divorce and discord between her mamas.
Either way, therapy is the best way to unravel this situation.
I agree with Billy that James is needed and that Tina needs to clue Bette in on everything. A secret like this, in this environment could be real trouble to their reconciliation.
Looking forward to the next chapter-

I think that first boyfriend and first sex are a bit (or a lot) clouding the view of the situation, and Angie can’t think rationally when it comes to Eddie.
Thanks, BK!
I am in agreement what is up with Bette and her job. Slippery slope before the dust settles on the reconciliation.

Agree about Bette and her work. Angie may be confused or troubled and need some counseling. She should also be talking to BOTH moms. Eddie does not seem like the kind and gentle type. Tina is minimizing that aspect. Also – Angie is a minor and the age of consent in California is 18 so legally Eddie is also guilty of statutory rape. Even if an adult age 18 has sex with someone who is 17 (which I’m not sure Angie is)they can face criminal charges.
Well, they are starting to have a time when they need to put words into practice and work on relationships
