“You can be, indeed. When you want to” Helena let out a little laugh. She was trying this new thing with her mother- being more tolerant of each other.
“Hmmf” harrumphed Estelle. “I think I liked it better when you were at each others’ throats!” She glanced at her watch and stood, muttering “excuse me, if you please. I’m going to call my so-called date” She walked a few feet away and flicked open her mobile phone.
“Estelle. You calling me every few minutes is NOT going to help me get there faster! I’m stuck in this STUPID traffic and frankly, I would appreciate a LITTLE more notice…”
“Alice, you’re already half and hour late! Hurry, please! I don’t know how long we can sit here before Helena reaches the end of her tether with Mummy. Honestly, at the rate she’s going, even I would…”
“Estelle, you’re rambling” pointed out Alice the Master Rambler, “Look, just calm down and get back to the table. I don’t know why you’re so worried! I’ll be as cute as ever, your mother will adore me! I’ve even been trying out this new posh accent too…”
“Oh god” this was going to blow up in her face, she just knew it “no no no, no accen…”
“Hey hey we’re moving!” chirped Alice through the phone “Damn traffic is clearing up! About friggin’ TIME! I’ll see you soon, ok?”
“Ok ok, come soo…”
“Wait wait! Kiss on two cheeks?” interrupted Alice again
“Huh?”
“We’re supposed to be dating, right? Do I kiss you on both cheeks? Or head straight for the lips?? Never mind, I’ll figure it out”
And the line went dead. Estelle groaned, this is going to be a disaster! As she approached their table, Estelle saw that Helena was looking decidedly testier.
“No, Mother. I will not phone her. She called earlier and told me she’d been held up in a meeting. She will be here soon” said Helena tersely.
“It’s alright, Mummy” said Estelle smoothly, sliding into her chair “Helena knows her woman well”
“All I’m saying is…” began Peggy
“Why don’t we just enjoy this time alone together, just the three of us. Isn’t this nice? I think its nice, just the three of us. Don’t you think its nice? Just the three of us?” babbled Estelle cheerily, trying to keep the peace.

Great chapter. I was crying with laughter because of Alice. “Oh I do apologise for being so late, m’hearties”. LOL.
Yey first comment! Thanks so much Monkeywrench (I DO like your name!)Glad this is making you laugh, m’hearty! :D
well dear vvitchy you made us wait a long time for this but it was soo worth the wait. Tears were rolling over my cheeks when I read the inquisition and some time later Alice. Well done sweetie you made my night. PPS
Yay! An update and a damn good one at that too. So…Tina has arrived, that will be so interesting. And Helena and Bette are so cute. I loved how Bette answered Peggy’s questions too. Alice was a hoot! I could totally see her doing that just for the hell of it. Great update.
A mess……..an absolute mess in the making….and I love it!! B didn’t know who was who…but is expertly handling Peggy….Peggy is being…well Peggy…Hel is absolutely smitten (brain out to lunch)…Al is loud and wrong (but so right…LOL) Estelle, well she has Alice and now Tina!!! ROFLOL…Just PPS
Awesome update M’hearty! HAHAHAHAHAHHAA!! ALice is too much honestly. I love the way Bette handled Peggy and i find it amusing that Helena didn’t know she knew her mother. Now…why is Tina there??
That was so fucking funny, damn Alice. Love the way Bette talk to Paggy and now Tina is there and let see whats next, thanks! Happy New Year Everyone!!!!!
hahah okay, the audience has voted and I think “m’hearties” is a winner!! I’m still chuckling ^o^ Now I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen with Tina on the scene! (hmmm which was how you ended your other story, too…so symmetrical, you are. :P )
My only regret was that I left this for so long to read! This was soo funny!!!!And aw Bette and Helena were just made for each other weren’t they? I think I’m gonna start flying that flag a lot higher again. And you’re making me want to get writing again too! Great job babe. I hope you post soon :)
Laughing and spewing out loud over Alice’s comment.Good to see you again
This was funny…Estelle should have known anything could happen with Alice as her date. What was Tina doing there? Did she know about the dinner plans? If she didn’t this should make for an interesting conversation. Keep posting.
OMG ! This should be so funny and interesting ! What a fantastic cliffhanger, Vvitch ! You sure know how to make your stories thrilling and enthralling, dear ! This just couldn’t get any better. And I just can’t wait to see how this dinner is going to “unfold” now with Tina entering the stage. I’m soooo enjoying this fanfic. Oh, and Peggy Peabody is such a great character ! I truly love her interactions with Bette. Their witty discussions… Those two really are on the same page, aren’t they ? It seems to me they know and understand each other so well. Sometimes I even think they do better than Bette and Helena ( but only for now, of course ). In fact, I’m pretty sure Peggy will be able to read Bette’s mind. I would even go so fare as to say that Peggy only “interrogated” Bette because she wanted to show Helena that she really cared about her, about her happiness… But I’m actually pretty sure that Peggy knew right away that she could trust Bette to be the perfect person for her beloved daughter. I’m sure she had no doubt about Bette’s intentions and I believe she must have felt “relieved” the minute Bette entered the restaurant.Anyway, did I mention I loved this kind of drama ? Did I make it clear that I loved this chapter ( and the previous one, btw, that for some reason I had missed ) ? I beg you not to make us wait too long for your next installment, V, as I’m already holding my breath. By the way, I think you should consider renaming this chapter ” Guess who’s coming for dinner ? “.
OH, V dear, that’s fantastiqueeee…
I’m so glad I read this at home!!!! I was really crying out loud from laughing!!! Priceless! You should warn us “DON’T READ THIS AT WORK! COULD GET YOU FIRED AS YOUR LAUGHS WILL BE HEARD FROM YOUR BOSS’ OFFICE NEXT FLOOR!” Really, vvitch, you overdid yourself another time! Thank you really much for this incredible piece of comedy. I sooo love Bette interactions with Peggy and Estelle. And next one is Tina’s time!!! At last!!!
one word: WOW!!!, going direclty to the next chapter now.
