They had made it all the way to Tina’s office and Tina had taken a seat behind her desk as she just waited for Alice to finish. Now that Alice had finally stopped talking Tina deliberately let her question hang in the air as she wanted to make Alice a little uncomfortable.
After a very long pause Tina finally speaks but ignores Alice‘s rambling questions. She didn’t want to provide Alice with any more information then necessary so she chose to begin with a broad stroke. “Alice it has come to my attention that you are carrying on an investigation surrounding the conception of the MYV Foundation. It has fallen to me to tell you to cease this activity immediately.” Tina states in the most authoritative voice she can muster.
Alice blankly stared at Tina as both Tina’s tone and delivery surprised her. Quickly recovering Alice now sat back in her chair as she realized what Tina wants to talk about so urgently. Taking a deep breath Alice considers how to respond. “Tina, do you know about the origins of the Motif Yen Valor Foundation?” Alice says as she pronounced the foundation’s name very slowly, enunciating every syllable.
“Yes” Tina says in a matter-of-fact manner.
“Oh, so you know it was Bette!” Alice fires back challenging Tina and then waits to see if Tina really knew.
“Yes” Tina says again in a voice that has an edge to it as she is trying to hold her anger back.
“Wow, I just knew Bette would come clean with you.” Alice says victoriously as Tina’s affirmation was validating her own judgment. “Dana and I discussed this and we both agreed that Bette would tell you after the conversation she had with us at Dana’s club.” Alice says as she rambles a bit.
While Tina was interested in this tidbit about what Bette had said she didn’t want to let Alice side track her.
“Alice I don’t know if I am too thrilled to be the topic of your and Dana’s discussions. So Dana knows about this too?” Tina almost screams.
“Well Yeah” Alice says a little surprised by that reaction from Tina.
“God Alice you need to forget all about this. This is not to be made public that goes for Dana too. I NEED YOU to quit investigating Bette.” Tina states simply but with authority.

Great chapter, LOVE Tina.
I wish Tina had just put a plastic bag over Alice’s head. She just doesnt get it; and even now talking with Tina, she is still looking for a way to make everything public.
I said it before and will say it again …. Alice does NOT know the meaning of friendship and loyalty!!
I hope that you have a great and very relaxing vacation. This is a great chapter, I loved how Tina held her ground. Alice is just so hard headed and does not realize that “If you play with the Bull, sometimes you will get the horns.” Alice need to recognize that she is now dealing with the Bull (that is two bull headed women who are not going to back down, and justifiable so.), and if she does not “Setp OFF” she will in deed get the horns and not only lose a friendship but also disrupt thier extended family. If you are truly part of a loyal friendship, then sometimes all you friend should have to do is ask—end of discussion. B&T should not have to give Alice any reason as to why theywant her to give up on this story. Additionally reguardless of what is in the story (even if they read it together), Tina should not ask her to reconsider her position. I think that Bette made her point to Tina quite clear and is firm in her decision. The fact that Tina knows why Bette did this should be enough for her. In fact, it should impress her more that Bette does not want all of the public acculades. Please continue.
Thanks for posting Wahbin! It makes us happy. great chapter as always
THANK YOU JWET AND OF COARSE THE HELPFUL WAHBIN..YOU LADIES ARE WONDERFUL THANKS FOR THE FABULOUS CHAPTER….
The last word should be Bettes, The Y in the road our friendship or the story, Alice is stupided enough to take the story, Tina was very firm. thanks for posting for J=wet
jwet. you are too good to us. your words are so vibrant. if i was al id be peeing my pants. tina with a whip comes to mind. thanks for the update and thanks wahbin for posting.
Love the title and the comments from all of the other readers. Thanks for posting for Jwet Wahbin…and big thanks to Jwet for keeping us going in her absence.
ohhh poor Al.. lolol… you go T!! wonderful Jwet, another side of Tina!
Oh Jwet, you do such a great job of making me want to throttle Alice!
She truly doesn’t get it. Instead of hearing Tina’s words that it could end their friendship, she continues to badger her about reading the article. It may be a good story, but obviously that story means more to her than their friendship.
I hope Alice understand that the Y in the road just needs to have the loose ends tied together and then it becomes a noose. She’s skating on thin ice, for sure.
I hope that Bette doesn’t reconsider. If she does, then Alice will be getting her way and B&T will be setting a dangerous precedence with Alice.
Upping my meds for the next post.
Enjoy your vacation and thanks to wahbin for posting!
Tina’s on a mission and Alice is clueless. I got a kick out of the way T approached it like a business meeting – no friendly b.s. Always look forward to your posts, J. Thanks.
what’s up with Alice? I’ think I’m more angry at her than B and T.
Bette doesn’t need to be redeemed in front of the world- why would alice even think that? Obviously a great story if I’m this worked up. Thanks for writing and thanks for posting. Have a great vacation.
Well Alice is safe now but let see what Bette reaction when she read the article!
great chpater Jwet. hope u are enjoying your vacation. thanks for the posts while u are away.
Another great chapter Jwet.Something tells me Tina will let Bette read the story and let her reconsider her position. I hope all is well!!
