This brought Tina out of her thoughts, she looked over at her daughter and her heart just melted, Honey, nothing is wrong. Mommy was just thinking. Cara, did you say hi to Robin yet? You remember what you are supposed to do when you meet someone, right?

Yes Mommy, Cara turned in the booster seat and faced Robin, holding her hand out said, Hi Wobin, my name is Cawa. Its nice to meet you. Robin smiled at the little girl and took her hand to shake it, Its very nice to meet you too.

See Mommy, I amembered, wight?

Yes, sweetie, you remembered. Tina said smiling at her daughter, wishing she had forced Alice to switch seats, she needed to hold her daughter. At least Dana was holding her. Actually Dana looked frozen in place holding her, almost afraid to look up and meet eyes with anyone at the table.

Robin needed to get out of there, Well, I need to get to my, uh, my appointment. Cara it was nice meeting you. Tina, nice meeting you as well. She turned to leave and spoke over her shoulder, Alice, I assume were off for dinner tomorrow. Its not a problem, Ill make an excuse.

Tina spoke up, No, no, she already told me about dinner, itll be ok. Go to dinner. I didnt come here to ruin any plans. Robin looked over her shoulder at Tina and gave her weak smile and kept walking.

Alice shouted after her, Ill call you about tomorrow Robin!

Shane turned to the table, Ill be right back, as she followed Robin outside.

Dana looked up at Tina, T, are you ok? Tina looked over at her friends and gave them a brief smile, Yeah, I was almost expecting to run into them. I expected to see Bette, not her girlfriend. Its just a little surreal.

Can I ask you a question, Tina? Alice softly asked.

Sure

When did you see her? You mumbled something about seeing Robin with Bette.

I did? I didnt realize I said that out loud. Tina answered a little self consciously.

Dana said, Its ok Tina, we know you werent really talking to us, but when did you see her?
