Chapter 33 – FRIENDSHIP

Previously from Chapter 32 . . .
“Um, James,” Tina spoke up, “will Bette be stopping by sometime over the weekend?”
“No, I’m sorry, Tina.” James frowned as he set his cup down. He had anticipated that Tina would indeed inquire about Bette’s presence at the estate. “Um, Bette’s actually away on business overseas for a week or two.”
“Oh, I see.” Tina tried to hide her disappointment. “I’m sorry to hear that. I just thought she’d be here too.”
“Unfortunately, no.” James managed a smile as he wanted to put a positive spin on Bette’s absence. “But she sends her well wishes and I know she’s excited that you’re both finally here and Ashley’s in the program. I’m sure you’ll see her soon.”
“Well, I look forward to that.” Tina managed a smile despite her sudden sadness.
Ashley offered Tina a smile of reassurance too. She wanted her sister to be happy. She knew that Tina still loved Bette with all her heart. Her silent hope was for both women to make amends and perhaps find a path to a shared future once more.
James left shortly after and the next few hours went by quickly as the sisters got settled into their temporary home . . .

Sunday – Porter Estate – Cottage House
Tina and Ashley’s most important guest at the cottage that first weekend was a cherished, old friend. Someone that Tina was especially looking forward to seeing after a long absence.
“Well, she’s totally out.” Tina explained to the tall heiress as the blonde resumed her seat across from the Brit in the huge living room.
The Kennard sisters had quickly settled into the large house, unpacked and made themselves at home within a day. Both women felt at ease and welcome in their new environment. Needless to say, Ashley grew a bit nervous on Sunday afternoon with the beginning of her treatments commencing the following morning. Tina did her best to reassure her sister that all would go well and that she was in very capable hands with the medical team that would be taking care of her.

Great chapter. So glad that Tina and Helena finally had the time to reconnect and renew their friendship.
And I wouldn’t expect anything less from Tina to pursue Bette at all costs.
Happy this story is back – one of my favorites!
I could not allow Tina & Helena to not reconnect, it made sense for them to meet up again. Besides, it was a great way to bring the story along update the readers on what action is happening.
You definitely know that Tina will pursue Bette eagerly & relentlessly.

I love Helena encouraging Tina not to give up, and it surely sounds like Tina will not give up.

Hey pal,

Great to see a new chapter!
Sorry to hear life was hard on you, i hope it’s better now?!
Love the friendship between Tina & Helena, i feel for Helena, trying to answer Tina’s questions but not betraying the trust of Bette.
Tina is smart, she will get her answers from Bette eventually but has to be patient.
Don’t give up Tina!
Hey friend,
Great to hear from you.
You’re right about Helena walking that fine line of trust because of her friendships with both Tina & Bette.
She wants Tibette to resolve their issues and reunite. Her encouraging Tina in her quest to convince Bette that they still can have a future together is a positive move.
Tina will definitely not give up!!
Take care yourself!!

So glad to see an update again, I was starting to wonder if you had abandoned this story. I hope everything is well with you and your family.
It seems that mission “Save Bette and Tina” is on its way. Tina Kennard is coming people, Bette better get ready !
Not a chance!! I love this story – close to my heart & one of my favorite places on earth – London.

Hey pal,
Thanks for the note. This story is so close to my heart.

So, get ready.
Good insight into the friendship between Tina and Helena. Always imagined Helena thought Tina was good for Bette.
Like Izzie said – Bette better get ready for Tina, the showdown is on!
Glad you’re back.
Hey gal,
I would agree with your assessment concerning Helena’s thought on Tina & her relationship with Bette. She calms Bette down & smooths out those rough edges.
A well awaited meeting coming up.
Stay tuned.
Thanks a bunch.
