This coup d’etat the night before was a hard blow. And Bette knew that not only would it not make things any easier for them, but it was very likely to make them worse. They had no idea how the new government would react to this epidemic. All they knew was that their reaction would be anything but benevolent. Kit was not very optimistic, especially now that the Red Cross would definitely not be allowed to enter the country. At least not for a while. She tried to appear good-humored with everyone, like she always did, but Bette could read her enough to know that under the cheerfulness, she was worried… Very worried.
Bette let out another deep sigh. She needed a break… She decided to go outside for a while and breathe in the cool of the night. During the day, the air was moist and heavy. And the smell was less sickening that when she’d arrived, but it still filled the air surrounding the lazaretto. The nights, however, were like a small respite where they could finally get a few breaths in and enjoy some cool air.
Bette looked at the sky. The stars were very bright and the brunette reveled in this wonderful haven of peacefulness and beauty.
She wondered if Tina looked at the same sky, if she saw the same stars…
She thought about the Rosita’s handbook and sighed sadly. She hadn’t been able to find it in her bag the night of her arrival. She cursed herself for not being more careful while opening her bag at the various security checks in LAX and Santa Maria’s airport. It had most probably fallen from her bag when she wasn’t paying attention. Not only would she not be able to perfect her steps, but she somehow felt like the pink booklet was the only thing that still linked her to Tina… And now, this last link was lost.
Yet, deep in her heart, she knew that she didn’t need a handbook nor anything of the sort to feel connected to the blonde.

Earlier that night, but miles away from the quiet night of the Rio Quinte valley, Tina had just finished packing when Alice came into the room.

i am a fan.
I am so hooked on this story! Bette’s admission just made me want to jump ahead to Tina’s arrival…just please don’t let Tina get sick – it would kill Bette! Please don’t torture us for too long – I can’t wait to read the next chapter!!!
Wow, that was some powerful stuff. Beautifully written chapter as always. Come on Tina, hurry up, she’s waiting for you!
Poor Bette and Tina. Can’t wait till they see each other. Helena seems understanding, and knows something is not right with her and Tina
Great writing..I hope Tina won’t get the disease..worry, worry….
That was a close one…I now have my fix and won’t have to worry about detox. That was amazing..I hope that Helena will understand everything. pps
WOW ! This Tina of yours ?! I like the sound of that !… This was a WONDERFUL chapter, K ! I mean it. Wonderful on every level… What is so heartwrenching, not to mention frustrating of course, is to see them hurting and struggling so much with their emotions when they actually both feel the exact same way about each other. In fact, no matter how far geographically they are from each other, it feels they’re so close with their heart and soul !… Oh, and Kit is a beautiful character as well… I love her ! Thank you, K ! You rock, as usual.
hope she finds the cure before tina gets there or worse comes down with it… or even kit… love this story… off to london… PPS
