SHANE
Im impressed? Whats that suppose to mean? Did she mean something else or is it what I think it is? Did the girls she met tell her about what nah. But its possible. But why would she be interested in knowing? And the way she looked at me. And that smile. Oh that smile. Man. What the ***** am I doing. Excuse me, are you going to do something about this? I looked at the lady who was talking to me through the reflection on the mirror. Gosh. She had too much make-up on. Is she going to the Chinese opera later? Hmm I wonder. Her lips. Oh my gosh. Is she trying to look like Angelina Jolie? My god. I think she had been cheated off her money man. And her face. Reminded me of gosh who is it damn! I forgot who the *****. Oh yeahI um I mean we have to wash your hair first. So if you dont mind following the lady over there? She will do the rest. The lady sulked as she got up from her chair. Her *****. Oh my god. At least her ***** is nice to look at.

TINA
Hello? Hello? What the *****? She hung up on me! Oh well. Come on Bette. Just talk to me. Is it so hard. I know Ive told you I dont want to talk to you anymore but do you have to believe me? How can you be so gullible?! Do you know how much I missed you? I longed to hear your sweet, ***** voice. The voice that you used to whisper in my ear when we were making love. The voice that always helps to soothe away the pain whenever Im down. Bette, Bette. I know youre hurting too but Im hurting as much as you, even more. You did you have to do this to us? Did I not be there for you every single way? Did I not loved you the way I promised to? What have I done wrong for me to deserve this? I know Ive lost the baby and Im sorry! Why Bette? Why?

BETTE
Shes right. I should stop doing this. God damn it Bette! If you want your wife back, you should stop sleeping with other people! How the ***** is she going to trust you if she knew that youve slept with other people? Im so stupid! Alex have been nothing but nice to me. She had helped me a lot. I cant depend on her all the time. She has a life on her own too. She has her own problems as well. But why cant I seem to ask my friends for help? My friends who had always been there for me and Tina. Why cant I confide in Alice, Dana and Shane just the same way I had confided in Alex? And Kit. My own sister. I couldnt even confide in my own sister! Whats happening to me? I used to be able to conquer any trouble or fears myself. Maybe its because Tinas not here to help me. And the letter she had sent. Why Tina? Dont you love me anymore? I know you still do. But why must you resort to doing this? I dont want a separation! I want to live the rest of my life with you! Oh Tina! Its not about the baby at all. Its just just too complicated.

Bette showed the letter that Tina had sent, to Alex. Alex read it slowly. She looked shocked as she had finished reading it. But why? she asked. Bette shrugged. Because Im a big, fat, ***** cheater and a liar! Thats why! she screamed. Alex shook her head. No Bette. Dont say that. There must be some explanation. Maybe you should go and see her and talk to her. You think she would want to see me? asked Bette, sobbing slightly. Of course. Bette looked outside the window. Dark clouds are floating over her house. As if to remind her that doom is coming. I dont know. I dont want to be disappointed again.
