“But they are completely engaged in brilliant wholesome art-making activities. Thank you very much.”

As if she had no will of her own Tina lets herself be led by Helena to the chaise lounge. She laid back as Helena knelt on the concrete floor between her legs spreading Tina wide. Helena pushed up the skirt and exposed Tina’s sex as she gently moved the panty aside.

“I love it that you’re always ready for me.” Helena says before she dips her head between Tina’s legs.

Meanwhile Winnie arrives at the house unannounced and is shown to the living area where the children are drawing. Wilson is the first to look up and see her.

“Mommy Mommy I didn’t know you were coming.”

“Well you know I wanted to see you today. I missed you.”

“Mummy took us to Sea World and look what Tina brought us?”

“That’s really nice.”

“We’re making art for you Mommy” said the shy Jung Yin

“That’s really beautiful sweetheart. Why don’t you finish up while I talk to Mummy.”

“Will you build a fort with me?” Wilson is still trying to get someone to build this fort as Nunu has begged off.

“Yes I will sweetheart very soon, but first where’s Mummy?”

The kids point to the doors leading to the balcony. Winnie walks outside and finds Helena with her head buried in Tina’s crotch. Tina has her eyes closed enjoying the buildup of what she feels will be another intense orgasm when she senses someone standing over her. She opens her hazel colored eyes and looks directly into unblinking green ones. She quickly lowers the hem of her skirt which alerts Helena of Winnie’s presence. Helena is completely unfazed as she wipes Tina’s juices from her lips and gazes up at her ex-wife. Once again Tina is mortified by being caught in the act. Her face turns beet red with embarrassment.

“Tina, meet my ex Winnie Mann.”

It didn’t take Nunu long to figure out that a storm was brewing when she saw Winnie exit to the balcony so she gathered the kids and took them to the game room out of earshot. Tina quickly excused herself to the bathroom.

“You are not actually above the law Helena even though I know you think you are.”

“Don’t be absurd Winnie. I haven’t broken any laws.”

“You were supposed to bring them to me for lunch. You’ve been gone for hours. I didn’t know where you were. I left you a dozen messages. You could have at least called me to tell me you were taking them out of city.”

“I had something special planned for them. In my excitement I forgot we’d made arrangements for lunch. I don’t see why they should miss out just because you’re rigid and small-minded and you don’t …”

Tina walks into the room having forgotten her handbag on the couch. “I’m sorry. I’ll be out of here in a minute.”

“You don’t have to leave Tina.” says Helena

“Oh yes you do.” contradicts Winnie

“Tina you know I had something special planned for the children at San Diego…”

Helena tried desperately to get Tina to side with her, but Winnie was having it. “This is between me and Helena. You’d be well advised not to get involved.”

“Tina I need you as a witness that their other mother would deprive them of such an enriching experience out of pure petty selfish pique.”

“She was gone for hours and didn’t even have the courtesy to return one of my dozen messages.”

“I really have to go. I just remembered I’m supposed to meet Henry for drinks with some of his friends. I really should go.” Tina said gathering her things and moving towards the door.

“Don’t be intimidated by her.” Helena growls in anger and losing the battle.

“No do. Because when it comes to my children even Helena Peabody can’t make me roll over and play dead. I will not beg for scraps and all the money in the world is not going to keep me in my place.”

“Helena. I’ll talk to you tomorrow.” Tina makes a quick exit out the door to her car.
