Chapter XVIII – Empire State of Mind – Jules
It inspired a light laugh and another head shake from Jules.
“What – you want me to ask?”
“No, don’t!”
“So, okay. No need to be nervous,” Patrick paused, and then asked, “what’ll make you feel relaxed while you stand out there, under the hot lights, so that you won’t be self-conscious while I take pictures of you?”
Jules pursed her lips, “Anything?”
“Anything,” Patrick responded. “You could eat ice cream, maybe, or read the paper, or…”
“I could sing,” Jules cut in, her eyebrows raised.
“Sing?”
“Uh huh. Sing.”
Patrick smiled, and then whirled around, “Can somebody fetch her that small cordless mike we were using for karaoke earlier?”
There was a flurry of activity among the techs.
“Can you also ask if one of them has a guitar?” Jules asked.
Patrick raised one eyebrow, and then turned around again, and called out, “And can someone bring a guitar over as well?”
Soon, one of them walked across the room and handed the microphone to Jules. Another was walking over carrying a beaten-up guitar case.
“You play?” Patrick asked him as he approached.
The tech nodded.
Jules gave him a quick smile, and discussed the sequence of chords she needed for the song she had in mind.
“Alright,” Patrick said, with a satisfied grin, as he ushered Jules to the center of a small stage that was surrounded by a bewildering array of lights arranged at different heights and pointing in various directions. He positioned her in the center of the screen that was set up behind the stage. He asked for a couple of large fans to be switched on. Christine dragged a bar stool over.
“Let’s rock!” he exclaimed, giving Jules a friendly wink.
Jules perched on the bar stool, signaled the tech to start, and then shut her eyes. When it came time, she began to sing and then sway in rhythm with the implicit beat of the song, “Ooooh, New York! Ooooh, New York!”
“Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes … Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean … If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that’s what they say … Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway….”

Thanks for the update….I feel the drama coming for Jules & Dianne.
Affair, assault which one I don’t know …… quite possible not either of
my scenarios, but I smell drama……
Enjoyed it. Thanks
I enjoy learning more about Jules and Diane. They are a nice addition to the Tibette story. I look forward to seeing more of these lovely ladies. And Krav Maga is totally hot! Who doesn’t love a beautiful woman who can kick ass?
I think it would be a good idea of Tom being the donor, with bette eggs, but with Tina carrying the child.
This was a good chapter as usual.
Thats not a bad idea Tom being a donor along with Bette’s egg and Tina is the surrogate. Problem is Tom a good guy??
If I am not mistaken, I read in the previous chapter that Bette and Tina did their homework in doing background checks on Tom, plus after meeting his family and having lunch with them I think solidify their decision.
Yes they did their background check. How is that they never found out about Tom’s family. Than for Bette to find out that Tom’s mother may have been an agent and a mathematical genius? Convienent for Bette to get those number deciphered.
I like the idea of Tom’s sperm and Bette’s egg with Tina being the birth mom. That way the kid will still be bi-racial, and also gets some good Bette genes in there!
Naysssssszzzzzz. ( Fistbumps all around.) thanks everyone.
Time to dance, I think.
