Coming Home
Bette’s Office – 9:30 am
Before I left home to drop off Angelica at CU’s day care and begin my complicated moves for extraction I packed every little piece of Jodie Lerner I could find into a medium sized cardboard box and tied it closed with yellow Caution tape. I stare at it on the floor under my office printer.
What was I? Fucking desperate? I wonder as my power suit boosts my laser focus and I begin to feel incredibly pissed off the longer I stare at the box. I fucking tolerated so much shit from that woman. Jesus! I’ve been so lost and for so damn long. I put my head in my hands and think about rebound sex and how the inevitable happened: I remembered love and knew it was somewhere else entirely.
I open my desk drawer and take out a framed photograph of Tina that Shane gave me so long ago. It’s been out in every office I’ve had but this one and I recall very clearly why I shoved it in the back of this drawer when I moved in – Tina was with Henry.
I walk to my office door with Tina’s photograph in my hand and catch James’ attention.
”James, give me about ten minutes without interruption.” I smile to put him at ease. Poor man, I periodically beat the shit out of us both. ”I’m closing my door. Ten minutes.” I hold up a little inch with my fingers.
One day I might change and not feel weird moods like this but I tend to doubt it. I look at the photograph of Tina and lean solidly back against my door until hear it catch. I thought for sure I had lost everything.
Shaolin Studios – Tina
Every time a delivery courier’s scooter appears in the window of my office trailer I wonder if Bette will send me flowers this morning. Then I wonder what kind, and then my phone interrupts me before I can fantasize anymore about her romantic floral signatures.
”Alice, hi.” I say finally after she calls my cell phone three times.
”Well, so you really are starting Jenny’s crazy movie about us, huh?” Alice begins. ”Shooting in two days? Right?”

The story just before this one, _The Lucky Ones_, is a good lead in to _Coming Home_.
Thanks for reading!

Thank goodness that you’ve returned!!! I thought you were in the Witness Protection Program yourself.Hope all is well w/you. Glad that you made Bette and Jodie’s denouement rapid. On the show it was so ridiculously long that it made no sense. It has taken a odd turn. I am curious to read what you do with the upcoming chapters. So happy that you’ve returned. :-)

Thanks so much, a great story, just what I needed on a Sunday morning – UK 7am – and containing tantalising stuff for future episodes – can’t wait! Lovely pictures too, including the lovely one of T which Jodie better not break! Really, really wish I was on that beach right now. So glad you’re back and look forward to this story continuing.

What a way to break up with Jodie?!…. …a yellow tape around the box? :P…And Bette’s mom is alive?!
brinny says
What a relief! No more Jodie. Bette and Tina together again! Maxine alive!
Every time I think some thing is going to happen, it’ll shift and once I think I’ve figured out the plot, it’s going to shift again. Nobody writes like you.
Blackbird, my friend, I am so glad you are back!

Glad to see you back and I agree with the comments given. You should have been a writer for the show!!! I loved the ending with Jodi, so funny. Also was so unique the way you introduced her mom with a Native woman. So appropriate! You’ve done another incredible story for the women and I’m sure they love you for it! Can’t wait to see what comes next!

I’m really glad you’re back.
I really enjoyed this chapter, I really liked it.
as Bette broke up with Jodie was really amazing, the highlight of the whole thing (as if you wrote it just for me) – good, I know not :P
Jodie at least hadn’t a chance to humiliate to Bette. Bette endured much at the beginning of their relationship.
Wow. What turns: Bette’s mother is alive. very interesting.
I’m looking forward to the next chapter.

Wonderful to see your writing! I had been checking every few days, hoping that we would see your talent again soon. Great story line and the scene descriptions makes the reader feel like part of the story. I can see it all in my “mind.” Thank you.

Welcome back amiga!!! You had me nervous for a while, so extremely happy to see you back on. Excellent story. Loved the “hit the road” approach with Jodie and definitely loving the “Maxine-factor.” Can’t wait for what’s ahead!! As always…AWESOME!!!
