"I know everything, Bette. I might miss some things, but I’m not dumb. I know when you’re planning something for me, you put in one hundred and ten percent, and I love that about you." She smiles and kisses me. "Thanks…"

"No, thank you." She says rubbing my face. She sees Angie and walks over and picks her up. She smiles and glances at Bette and then me. And then she says…

"Mommy…" I watch her lips and understand she is calling Bette. Bette eyes widen and then she looks at me.

"She said mommy." Bette recites to me excitedly. "She called me mommy." Bette repeats excitedly. And then Angie reaches for me, saying…

"Mommy,” I look at Bette who’s apparently confused with Angie’s choice of words.

"WH-What? She called you mommy." Bette says to me, wide eyed and surprised. "This can’t be real." Bette says looking at Angie and then me.

"It’s real." I said to her. "She is calling me, mommy, how cute."

"I can’t believe it.”

BP–I wonder what Tina will have to say about this…

~The planet~

"So when did you get in town?" Kit asked as she was being seated by an old friend.

"Yesterday," Marina replies, sitting down beside her. She takes off her hat and places it on the table. "I closed out my accounts in Milan and I’m no longer touring, so I figured I’d go back to the place where I was always welcomed."

"L.A."

"Yup," Marina replies, licking her lips and nodding her head. She took a closer look at the planet interior and was happy at what she saw. "I see you’ve been keeping the place up to date.

"I see you’ve been keeping the place up to date. It looks great!"

"Thanks," Kit says, smiling at her accomplishments. "It’s been almost three years and I can’t tell you what I’ve done since then. Working here has had its ups and downs, but I can’t complain. I’m getting paid." The two laugh and think back to when the planet was just a simple cafe. "So, where’s your hubby, count Dracula?"

Marina laughs out loud and nearly falls out of her chair. The comment caused her to sit up, no longer crossing one leg over the other. They were both now planted against the tiled floor. "I divorced him." Kit stopped laughing and glared at her.
