From Afar
Walking up to Kit and Bette, Tina couldnt help smiling Hey Kit, Bette you two look like you have some secret between the two of you. Anything you want to share?
At that Bette just turns more red leaving Kit to bail her out Oh you know us sisters we just have all these family secrets that we keep in the closet and only bring them out when no ones around. Kit says this with a low laugh that is infectious as Bette joins in.
Oh Tina dont listen to her she is just trying to stir things up. Bette says as she is looking at Kit, dismissing her. As she turns again to Tina Thanks for coming right over. I know that the last day or so has been a little hectic. Can I get you a coffee or ice tea .. something?
Hey let me do that and you two take a seat and I bring it right out to you. Kit offers and gets their drink request and heads back towards the kitchen.
As Kit moves away from the table Bette waits for Tina to sit down and then follow suit. Once Tina sits down she looks over to Bette with an expectant looks waiting for her to take the lead. Bette looks a little nervous as she looks down at her hands the she has in front of her on the table with the fingers interlaced as if she were praying.
Taking a deep breath and letting in out slowly Bette looks up at Tina and begins Thanks for coming Tina I appreciate it. I wanted to have a discussion with you.
A discussion Bette thats awful formal dont you think? Tina says trying to loosen Bette up a bit.
As Tina says this Bettes eyes get big Well yeah I guess .. I wanted to talk with you about some things that are going on.
As Bette is saying this Tina can tell she is uncomfortable as she is using her hands to gesture a lot. Always a dead give away sign that Bette is nervous.
I just have some thoughts running through my mind. I thought it might be important that I make some things clear about what is important to me. Bette says as she is trying to find the right words and having a hard time.

LOVELY STORY..THE FRIENDSHIP THAT BETTE & TINA HAVE NOW IS SO STRONG…LOVE IT POST SOON
Oh I’m so happy to see them communicating. These two deserve each other and their new attitudes and willingness to communicate about the important happenings in their lives will make the reunion that much better. Thanks for a great story.
Jwet thanks for taking the tyme to comment to all of your fans…. I look forward to your comments as much as the story (OK not entirely true, but I enjoy the comments nonetheless). Enjoy your weekend and I’ll be looking forward to your next post.
Gotta love the communication these two are expressing=) Bette did awesome on explaining her fears to Tina…they’ll get through whatever life throws at them, I’m sure of it=P Alice is such a funny gal. Please update soon Jwet!
Jwet, i know I’ve said this before but i need to say it again. This story, and you as a writer keep gets better with every chapter. I hope Tina remembers to communicate with Bette when she finds out Bette is behind the foundation. Oh, and Alice is such a trouble maker but I still love her.
Wow when they are talking it almost as good as them having sex LOL. Yeah my thoughts do always go back to Tina when she finds out that Bette is the one who gave the money. But I think she will be cool with it since that is all Bette seems to have done. I mean jackie really liked tina, and grace did too so it wasn’t like Bette had to push the idea at all. Right?? well keep up the good work!!
Hey jwet I just get

I had fallen a few days behind… WOW, I like where this is headed. I even like that you keep Alice in there, just so we don’t get too comfortable, just be kind!
Good Job.
I have seen your writing get better and better as this series continues.
Thank you.
Jwet, this is wonderful. I like the way Bette and Tina are communicating with one another.
What a beautiful talking they have, this is good. Bette is open up to Tina and that’s a good sign, like it. Ok just keep them like this until their date and see what’s happen next. Post soon, thanks! Great chapter!
Wow!! Bette us changing so much. This was nice of her to talk to Tina about the situation. Loving it!!

Don’t talk about them and where they are in their lives…talk about the possibilities inherent in chocolate sauce or whipped cream once Anna’s gone to bed (or is taking a nap, or is out with the au pair, or is being babysat by someone…)
Forgot to mention…still enjoying Alice as Cassandra.
love the new bette !! great update as always
Glad they can keep talking please let Bette keep it straight.and we know Alice is going to find out where the money came from BUT is she going to screw things up for them by going to Tina before Bette..Post soon this is and fabulous story.. TY
Alice is still the bloodhound she is getting close…
Bette has completly opened herself up to Tina, love this new Bette.
Have a nice weekend Jwet and thank you for this chapter.
This is clearly “one of” the best stories on the site…please keep churning them out for us.
Excellent chapter. Can’t wait to see when Alice will bust open the story on MYV. And when Tina will decide that she wants Bette back in her life in all ways!
Hey Jwet. I know I haven’t been around lately but life got in the way! Sadly, it wasn’t all good…I’m no longer one of two….just one. Reading you’re story gives me hope but I fear that hope will bear no fruit. It hurts like hell but I’ve made sure that lessons were learnt. The love will possibly always be there but, right now we can’t be together. I’m glad that Bette is taking things slow and getting to not only learn the new Bette but the new Tina as well. You’re doing a wonderful job. And even though I expressed concerns about the results of Alice’s snooping, Tina’s new found confidence in herself and her relationship with Bette will help them to deal with any negative fallout (should it occur). Keep up the good work, and do have a restful weekend.
Again, brilliant. Love it, post soon and thanks :)
Woo, that was good. I love how B&T are finally communicating, well they’ve been…you know what I mean.
It’s hard to keep all these ideas in check sometimes so next week you shall see more.
Write more please, woo!
Reading this chapter I know why I can never find the perfect words to express what this story makes me feel. It’s just so overwelming.
Jwet,
Thanks you babes. Goofy grin at being appreciated. Honestly as amazed that you take the time to answer all your supporters. BIG THANK YOU!
So on to this fabulous story.
Eloquent as ever, you craft such a wondrous tale. The characterizations are stunning; I can really feel Bette battling between the old and new and improved version as Tina is blossoming in to the assertive and backboned director we all know she will be.
I love the way that you have covered all bets with the simplest of expositions. I am torn between being desperate to see what happens next while wanting to savour every juicy moment.
So which of the following questions will be answered in the next installment of “From Afarâ€:
When will Alice be able to sit down after that tongue lashing? Will she pass it on to her editor? (Yes please!) Where does Miss Kit get all those pearls of wisdom from? (Do the Hawaiians know). When will the ton of brick hit Bette and Tina to make them realise they belong together? Will the ‘one-off’ develop into a motivational speakers series? Will Benjamin integrate them into TOE?
Why does buttered toast always land butter side down on a carpet?
Right back at you about this weekend. Enjoy your golfing! LOL!
Will be at a wedding then having a few days off so won’t be posting until Wednesday. Yippee, bet I’ll have loads to read then. Sweet!
You Loyal Fan.
So glad they’ve agreed to keep the lines of communication open…I’m hoping they’ll draw on that if and when Alice uncovers the truth about the initial donor to the foundation…Also I’m so counting on the incredible love that Bette and Tina have for one another to get then thru all of their obstacles…it has already, right? This is still one of my all time fav fanfics!!! Thanks!
Alice..Alice.. I’m glad to hear Tina is not concerned about where the money came from – I hope it stays that way. The rebuilding between them is tender and wonderful.
