    Great Unexpectations Chapter 28

    "No. I mean how did it go?", Bette asked again with raised eyebrows.

    Tina looked up. "Ohhh, that", she grinned. "Well, I, um kind of have to meet her for lunch sometime this week."

    "You don’t say."

    A gentle satisfied laugh escaped from Tina’s lips. "Don’t worry, babe. I’ll be thinking of you the whole time."

    "Yes you will. Because I will be sitting two tables away watching everything. And if she lays one hand on you I might have to become a little un-ladylike."

    Richard stared ahead at his computer, but nodded approvingly. "In that case, I’ll be there too", he smirked.

    Having sent the list to Lydia, Tina logged out of her email account and sat back in her chair. She looked over to Richard who was still clicking and typing like a man possessed. "You’ll probably get further than I will, Richard. There’s nothing more I can do at this point."

    "Oh I don’t know, Tina", Bette said. "I think Lydia is quite motivated. You’ll probably be hearing from her sooner than you think." This time it was Tina’s turn to roll her eyes.

    Richard looked up from his computer, his glassy eyes showing all evidence of excessive eye strain. He rubbed at the corners and blinked harshly before speaking. "Ok, Tina. Thanks for everything. You’ve been a big help. Good work."

    They made their farewells, giving Faye gentle warm hugs on their way out the door. "Thank you, ladies, for coming over on a Sunday. Go home and be with your daughter. Please." It was difficult to determine the nature of the torment showing on Faye’s face. The source could have easily been either physical or emotional. Likely an amalgamation of both with a heavy dose of regret thrown in for good measure. Tina squeezed Faye’s hand lightly in reassurance. She beamed her ‘Tina’ smile and left quickly in Bette’s arm.

    The drive home began silently. Tina leaned her head back enjoying the warm comfort of Bette’s hand at it’s standard position. That being her thigh. Bette broke the silence. "Can I just say how proud I was of you today?"

    "Of course. You can say that anytime", she flirted.

    "No. I mean it Tina. That payroll thing was very clever. What made you think of that?"

    1. oh wow am I 1st??? Not that it bothers me. Great, great, great, so sweet the good-byes and that final comment about would it have hurt for Ange to shed a few tears, love it. More when u can. Thx.

    2. Sweet. But sad. Damn, that goodbye was pretty sad. And the Jodi reminder was awful. Hope they find what they are looking for and aren’t in too much danger. PPS.

    3. Angelica may not have cried, but you had me a little choked up. Loved the chapter and that last comment. This story has been such a delightful read. Heartfelt congrats on you nomination!

    4. Could Angie be any cuter? I hope this trip is short yet fruitful. And I love that last line. Great chapter, thanks for the update, red. (And congrats on your wholly-deserved noms. Your writing’s fantastic.)

    5. That was heart warming even though a little sad. I hope that Faye will have a heart warming period with her daughter. I know I am a wus but I love happy stories.

    6. Hey, hey, Red, thanks so much for the update, I know how pre-occupied you are with dinner these days! LOL. Isn’t little O just the best thing ever? Her momma’s better be comin home in one piece or else you’re going to have a little revolution on your hands! PPS

    7. You are doing such a great job with this story and making me cry too many times. Bring them home safely to their baby and the rest of the family. The baby is so sweet and very intuitive, as most babies are. Let them find Cora soon and make her come home with them to see her mother one last time and understand that her mother could do nothing about what was happening to them. Maybe she can forgive her mother before she leaves this world. Hopefully she is not so bitter that she can understand. Post when you can.`
