Double Vision 15
Watching Helena’s back move further away, Bette realised that this was how Helena coped. She distanced herself, physically too, if it was too difficult to handle. She recalled how on the day Helena had witnessed the ‘kiss’ between her and Estelle, Helena did not storm up to them, or yell in their faces. Instead she retreated, and her twin sister was the only one allowed to stand close to her.
Helena poured herself a glass of water slowly, watching a slender stream trickle in. She wanted to pour her heart out to Bette. To tell her how it had felt when her mother withdrew from her after her father died. That day, Helena had not lost one parent but both. She had always wanted to tell someone all this, to share it with someone. Sure, Estelle understood, but not completely- Mother had not ceased to show affection for her. What would it be like, to bare her soul to Bette? She did that to Winnie, and look how that ended- Winnie left. Like everyone else. But Bette was already different- she had asked. No one else had asked Helena what it was like, to be her. Would Bette stop asking, if Helena didn’t tell, right now? But I’m not ready… it still hurts
What should I do, Helena? Bette watched as Helena swirled the water in her glass. She thought for a moment, and it finally dawned on her. Helena needed to know. Bette stepped towards Helena purposefully, a few swift strides and she was standing behind her lover.
Helena felt a gentle hand on her right shoulder, and then felt it move down her back, rubbing slowly and soothingly. She raised her eyes to Bette’s and started speaking apologetically “I’m sorry, Bette… I want to tell you but…”
“It’s alright, Sweetheart… you don’t have to tell me. Only if and when you’re ready” Bette placed soft kisses on Helena’s cheek, and her lips “After all, we have all the time in the world”
Helena drew back in surprise “Wow. You’re saying something”
“I know. I can hear myself pretty well”
“Are you sure?”
“Am I sure I can hear myself?”

This is absolutely hilarious- your best so far I think! It was effortless and I empathise with your characters for a number of reasons which I daren’t say here. Brilliant! I see you’ve poste again so I’m off to read that. Thanks.
You!! I love the playful wordiness! I also had coffee not too long ago, which is known to activate a certain bodily function, and laughing does NOT help. Yet, I was only on page one and I refuse to leave until I get to the end…oh, the internal damage you have caused! :scrams:
