Chapter 31

Tina was sitting in the first class lounge enjoying a white wine, before she boarded her plane back home…back home somehow New York didn’t feel like home anymore. She smiled at the thought of coming back to California permanently to her friends to Bette.

Yes she had made good friends in New York enjoyed the night life the shopping, she had enjoyed a very happy and important relationship with a great person, Jessica. Tina would miss her the most, but she was happy her move back to California was shaping up to be a great homecoming, yes, for the first time in a very long time she felt like she belonged again, she was happy.

The events of last night had begun the healing process for her and Bette, and though things started off rocky she was sure they were headed in the right direction, they had spent all night at Hit drinking, dancing, talking in the end even Alice had begun to be civil towards Bette, she had saw the look of relief on Bette’s face when Alice had hugged her good night.

Her phone rang, she pulled it out of her pocket and smiled as she saw the name on the caller ID.

“Hey you”

“Hey” Bette replied

“I just wanted to wish you a safe trip and I’m sorry I couldn’t meet you for lunch”

“That’s ok Bette I understand your busy”

“I know but I really wanted to see you before you left, when will you be back?”

Tina sighed

“I don’t know maybe a couple of weeks”

“Two weeks?” Bette groaned

“Yeah maybe, I have so much to do before I can make my move here, even after I move into my house I’ll probably still to fly back and forth for a bit, until my current projects are finished”

“Can’t someone else finish them?” Bette asked

“No, anything stamped with the Tina Kennard name has to be my work, I’m responsible so I have to make sure they are completed correctly” Tina smiled

“Besides, I have so much packing to do its ridiculous”

“Why not hire people to do that for you?”
