From Afar
As Tina was getting up Helena leaned across the table and said to Bette Bette, you and I need to get together sometime to compare notes. I routinely had Christina screaming my name when I entered her from behind, did you ever have that effect on her or was that something special just for me?
Bette saw immediate RED at this comment from Helena. Bettes first instinct was to knock Helena into next Tuesday and she was just the woman to do it as Bette suddenly stood up.
Bette doesnt feel bad about that screaming Im sure its just my superior skills, its just something you have no control over. Helena said challenging Bette.
Chapter 65 – Ideas and Beliefs
At seeing the satisfaction that Helena had on her face as she was saying this let alone what she was saying was Bettes undoing. She could no longer take this woman. Tina was just leaving the table and didnt appear to have heard the comment. Not Tina or any other person at the table registered in Bette conscious as she was only seeing Helenas face cast in a sea of red as the pounding of her pulse was once again in her ears. Bette had spent many a day at the CAC during Tinas pregnancy listening to Helenas never ending editorial of description of her and Tinas love life. That was something at the time that Bette felt she deserved, a kind of prison sentence for the crime that Bette had committed. But that was then and this is now and right now Bette was not going to stand here and take this from Helena.
Standing rigid in her spot, Bette suddenly realized she really doesnt know exactly where she stands with Tina. Yes they want to be a family but does that mean that they will get back together as partners or just co-mothers for Anna. Why havent they talked about that yet? Why havent they even broached the topic of her infidelity? Did Tina even want to know? If she didnt want to know how could they build a lasting relationship? Was she just deluding herself in thinking that maybe they could be together and a family? Maybe Tina really liked ***** better with Helena?

dunno- i kinga get Bette’s predicament here. if all is as Jwet has laid out here and Bette is really unsure of her position/place with Tina et el, than i can understand her confusion as to what her role is, with both Tina and in their future. that being the case, i totally get her inability to take Helena head on cause if she is not even certain of her position with Tina, how is she to know Tina’s position with Helena? oh, the wicked tale that Jwet weaves…
Sorry I haven’t been posting recently…like you guys often say, “Life got in the way”…actually it was exams! Gladly they’re over, for now. Can’t wait til B tells ALL to T…MYV included!
Jwet,
I am so overwhelmed by the way you take take to respond personally to each and every one of us who care enough to comment.
So this chapter, I felt it was a step back in the development of Bette’s new caring and sharing side. But a necessary one because as you so aptly conveyed she has several secrets that could potentially destroy all of the goodwill between her and Tina at this stage. Also the fact that she isn’t sure of her position with Tina and therefore is unwillingly to overstep the mark with Helena shows just how much a better person she is now.
This direction is so much more true to life rather than the “Wham, Bam, thank you Ma’am†approach of other authors. I, for one, admire you for taking this chance. Bravo!
Today’s thoughts and queries are: (bit stumped today after the boxing)
*Ding* Round Two
Commentary:
Hecklesome lets fly with both barrels as The Basher ducks and dives, avoiding all punches. Hell throws a nasty left hook which catches Bette full force on the face. She is reeling and backs away from the action. Her opponent is bobbing in the centre, proclaiming her victory. What’s this? A white towel from the red corner and it’s all over. Bette creeps away. Ready to fight another day as Hel abounds with her seemingly successful bout.
Does Kit have a column for all of her advice? Will she put in to music for her next album? Will Tina ever find out what Helena said? When will Tina see Bette’s return? Has Alice managed to slip off her Manolo’s to give herself a head start? Was that a starting pistol or a sniper gunning for Helena?
Babes, you and this story rock!
More soon as I think a rematch after the air is cleared between Tina and Bette is required.
As always, your Loyal Fan.
You have us on pins and needles.. :)
Honestly, I wish Bette decked her a good one, then again, she was at an important event for Tina. I’m glad that Kit verbally slapped Bette on the side of her head to make her talk. And I believe Tina wants Bette to put Hell-no in her place.
Poor Alice….I’m sure she’ll survive but I can’t wait to see what tortures you have planned for her.
Again and again, thanks for such a wonderful story!
I just wanted to let you know I am still catching up with your story so I haven’t read this chapter yet…but i’m really enjoying it and I look forward to being up to date…
I understand why Bette didn’t go full steam ahead with Helena and kick her ass to kingdom come!!! but i think that day will come, she has to talk to Tina and get everything ironed out in their relationship once and for all, Bette just has to let all her insecurities go….and talk…now Alice, that was mean what you did. I think Bette should drop kick her ass and score a field goal with her behind.
Thanks again for all your hard work that must go into producing these chapters day after day Jwet.
Thanks goodness she went back in. The last line had me chuckling. Time to reveal secrets — hope that goes well. Thanks!
I was wondering…did Alice really intend for Helena to change seats with her? Or was she duped or perhaps even did it deliberately to set Helena herself up for a major crash and burn? In any event, if it was out of spite then remember – you reap what you sow.
I too, think that Bette was wise to walk away. She was not in the right frame of mind to deal with Helena without making a scene, and as other have said it is all about Tina for the night. Better to not cause a scene – even if her motive for leaving was more egocentric.
As for Helena, her insecurities are are vivid enough for a blind man to see. Her need to lash out at Bette is because she is not confident enough about herself to just let her presence be enough to unsettle Bette.
Bette and Tina do need to talk about the scope of their relationship and what that all means. If they don’t, then situations like this will only leave them both confused and with an even greater potential for disaster the next time. Great story, I like your titles too, by the way. They always make me interested to see how it plays out!
Yeah Kit you said it sista friend, great save Jwet. Ok now lets move on to one Ms Alice P. make her squirm, she needs to get her s%it together.
Crossing fingers for the girls whenever Bette has the talk with Tina. Please let it not be a long separation (if Tina’s get very upset by it) there is always great make up sex ;-). Thanks again for a great chapter.
I always enjoy it! Thanks once again Jwet. But I’m sure I’ll die if you don’t post soon… lol (I can be dramatic… see??? *winks*)
Alice wants to die NOW!
I understand Bette’s feelings and I do think she’s wise to let Helena’s insults fall to the ground. She’s gotta be there for T though.
Nice chapter.
OH great theres a 1st Im 1st to comment lol…YAY!
SO glad Bette decided to go back in and not give Helena that control over her,As for Alice she will think twice before swapping seats again! lol great chapter as always thanks
i know that Tina change and Bette either but the way Bette change is not totally good cuz i´m glad that she change in facts like be more family and suport then but in the other hand she seems weak hopeless and afraid and dont say nothing to Helena when she is insulting her was too much c mom where is the woman how dosent have afraid to fight for what she wants??? she piss me off….amazing chapter really great but stop Bette been such a chicken lol..thanks
Thank you for letting Bette think twice and go back..and she better kick Alice’s ass for setting her up to sit with Helen’a..I think Tina will understand the truth but I think Bette needs to find out how Tina really feels first. Post soon I love your story..
Bette needs to, metaphorically speaking, find her balls. Killing Alice is just a present on top of that.
However, if she goes all out on the truth, will T be ready to really hear her?
Okay I’m still laughing from OCD’s comment. I loved this story. Have B kick Al’s ass, woo! Patience I have my friend but hurry up already! heh, just kidding, but really not, heh!
OMG i am so mad at Helena. i am going to beat her with a wet noddle in my story. torture her and then drop kick her off the tallest building.
I can not get enough of this Jwet. I love the way you take us there. Man, I can see it. Like i’m really there. Awesome J.
Boy that Helena really needs a good beating. Alice better have a darn good explanation for giving Helena her seat.
k yesterday i was growling not i’m howling. please let bette kick her ass. al deserves to not go to the planet for days cuz of what she did. loved the story, but this is like watching the show. so much drama i want the next installment like yesterday. lol. i’m glad bette went back also. please post soon.
Bette showed more restraint than I would have. If not tonight at some point Bette needs to kick Helena’s tailfeathers
I hate to say this, but I think Bette Porter is a real pussy. You don’t let an interloper come between you and your spouse. She should just toss off Helena’s comments and keep going.
This night is all about TINA. Bette should be there for her, come Hell (ha) or high water! Nothing should come between them.
Bette needs some empathy for Tina, rather than dwelling in her own feelings all the time.
It’s not about her.
Hello?
Bette, get back to table and suck it up! Winnie said it best, you get to Helena by ignoring her. I know it’s hard, but she has to. Alice is a mere afterthought. The real deal is all about Bette and Tina.
Thanks for posting another chapter!
Great Chapter Jwet, I now got the feeling that it may be Alice’s tootsies twitchin!!! Can’t wait to see how it all falls into place. Good One Mate, I think Down Low has SOOO muuch to catch up on!! x
great chapter but Helena still needs her ass kicked. Happy to see Bette stuck around for her T.
Good advice from Kit and I hope Bette really takes it. You’re welcome on the secretary reminder :-)
me and the napkins are now one ! Its like urban camouflage !! lol Great story … sooo many miles to go ! Lovin the journey
Yes, Techgal you definitely have it right. Forget Hellena, she obviously sound like a woman scorned. Can the real Bette please stand up? Hellena’s actions are clearly those of someone jealous of Bette. Maybe if her mother hug her more she wouldn’t be such a bitch. Please let Bette ignore Hellena and realize that if Tina only wanted her in her life for Anna, she could have asked her to babysit and make Hellena her date.
K
Glad Bette didn’t leave, they are being adults aren’t they :) Just love this.
God Helena is too much!
