Bette’s mouth dropped. The waitress’s smile faded and was replaced with a cold stone horror. "I’m…I’m sorry. I’m…so…" The tears in her eyes hastened her retreat slightly, but she still managed to scurry to the kitchen in record time.
Bette, still mouth ajar, looked to Faye in disbelief. They locked eyes, and for a quick moment could not rid themselves of the urge to giggle. They felt very much like children misbehaving in church, but were helpless to stop themselves.
Wiping the laughter-induced tears from her eyes, Faye admitted, "That wasn’t very nice, was it?"
"You’d better leave her a nice tip, Faye", Bette quipped.
"I think you’re right", Faye said, still chortling.

Richard and Tina sat in the car as it made it’s way back to the city. "Dammit!!" Richard yelled as he slammed his hand against the steering wheel.
"It’ll be ok", Tina said trying to comfort him. "It’s just one more day. His mom said he’d be back tomorrow."
Richard stared ahead at the road. "One more day. Is that all? How much time do you think Faye has?", he snarled.
Tina looked out the window of her door. He’s right. That was a stupid thing to say. The remainder of the drive was spent in silence. Except for one word. "Sorry", she said.

A suited man came to the table and spoke to Bette and Faye nervously. "Excuse me ladies. My name is Geoffrey. I’m the manager. How is everything?"
"Everything is just fine, thank you Geoffrey. The food is simply delicious."
"Very well, Madame", he said. "And the service?", he hesitated.
Faye fought hard to keep from giggling again. Yes, of course, he’d come to see why his waitress was crying. Her temptation to giggle was immediately drenched by the fear that the poor woman’s job might now be in jeopardy.
"The service has been exemplary. I’m afraid, however, I had a little fun at the expense of our waitress. Could you please extend my deepest apologies to her. She’s been simply marvelous."
Geoffrey smiled, satisfied with Faye’s words. "Of course, Madame. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance." He left them to their meal and somewhat lighter hearts.
They finished eating and left money for the bill plus an extra one hundred dollar bill for the waitress with a quick note. "Thank you so much for the great service!". At Faye’s insistence, Bette also left a smiley face on the note. That thought alone kept Bette chuckling all day.
Bette escorted Faye back to her room and was surprised to find Richard and Tina there. Tina was scrolling through the contact list on her cell, but when she saw Bette come through the door she closed her phone with a smile. "You’re back. Already?" , Bette said.
"Yeah. Let’s go babe. Let’s give Richard and Faye some time to talk."
Bette read Tina’s eyes and nodded. Once they were in the hallway, Tina explained about the one day delay. "But the good news is that we can catch up on some sleep", she sighed.
"Or other things", Bette flirted.
"Or other things", Tina agreed. "But first, we are talking to Angelica."
"Absolutely. Come on T. Let’s call our daughter."
TBC.

I won’t worry about Richard messing with Tina now that he’s received the famous Porter death stare. Now on to Bette and Tina catching up on “other things” after touching base with Angie.
Another Great Chapter!!!! I so hope they find Cora very soon. B&T to be home with ther daughter. Thanks PPVS
Richad checking Tina out only to find Bette staring him down was hilarious. PPS!!
First, LMFAO@Bette’s death glare! I just knew that was coming. And second, even though it’s morbid as hell, LOL@Faye! I guess that’s one of those moments where you have to laugh at yourself because the only other option is to cry.
Tut tut, Richard. Eyes off Bette’s woman. I really hope that this lead gets them to Cora, because I fear for Faye lasting much longer. The restaurant scene… that was funny, yet not, but still… I laughed, anyway. I hope that girl waitress wasn’t too scarred by it all. Thanks for the chapter red, it was ace. And whatever you need luck for, I wish you bucket-loads of it. Post when you can. Cheers
Their love for each other and Angie is such an inspiration. They take good care of each other. I love this story. PPS.
They are close I can feel it in my bones. Or maybe that is old age or the weather turning slightly cooler. Whatever it is, there is some hope because Bette and Tina are on the case.
Good chapter. Hope they find Cora soon and B&T get home to Angie, no drama for them. Please post more, thanks! Glad to catch up with your story and love it, can’t wait to see more, thanks!
oh, me first, that never happened before. As for the story, so sweet that T&B. Md
Yes, let’s let B&T catch up on other things, shall we??? LOL PPS
Then leaving Angie was so sad for them, Angie just was with the people that loves her and didnt care. Faye and Bette are funny together Bettes death atare to Richard was priceless. thanks
Hey Redhorse, I have just caught up with your amazing adventure. I love and adore your Bette and Tina. The love they share is sooo Season 1. Yippee!!! I loved the whole redemption puzzle at the centre of this drama. This tale is unfolding perfectly as Bette and Tina continue to talk things through before committing to Faye’s requests. The mystery is enticing and I really want to get to the bottom of it and see what to whole fuss was about. Prehaps it is just a mother, realizing her faults and trying to reach out and save her child. Great to see Bette and Tina, in it together. Angelica is their main priority but their hearts are big enough to include others. Liucky for Cora though. Please continue soon. I can’t wait. Thank you so much for all the hard work and effort to bring this fabulous fan fiction to my eyes. A Fan.
