Ayola looked at her in wonder. ”What thing?”
”What do I owe such graciousness of yours?”
Ayola considered her answer for a moment. She shrugged. ”It’s called humanity and it doesn’t seek any profit.”
They ate in silence for a while before Ayola spoke again. ”Any plans after seeing your parole officer?”
”Yeah. Gonna visit my old friend. Then maybe do some shopping.”
”Do you need a ride to the parole office? I’m in no hurry whatsoever. The preproduction meeting starts in more than an hour.”
”That would be great. Thanks,” Bette said softly. ”What network do you work for?”
”Showtime, for now. I’ve worked for several.”
”Never watched TV, to be honest. I watched news from time to time. So I have no idea what kind of shows were popular then and are now.”
Ayola smirked. ”You might find it interesting, but I know so many people, including those who live in LA and work in show business, that don’t watch TV at all.”
”What about you?”
”Well, there’re these days, you know, when I’m exceptionally lazy. When I want nothing but put my feet on a table and watch some stupid comedy or drama series.”
Bette chuckled. ”Sounds tempting, actually.”
”We could arrange that some day,” Ayola suggested.
”We could.”
They finished their meals soon and were ready to leave the house, but before they did Ayola lingered for a moment.
”Bette?”
The tall brunette turned to look at her only to see Ayola’s outstretched hand with a key in the palm.
”I’m not sure what time I’ll be back home, so take the spare key in case you beat me here.”
”I can wait for you in the front yard,” Bette began to elude.
”No way. You’ll come here and make yourself at home,” Ayola countered firmly.
Bette paused, looking at the key with hesitation. When Ayola’s hand shook in encouragement, Bette finally accepted the metallic object. Following Ayola to the car, Bette fingered the key, having a feeling that she had accepted an awful lot in accepting this simple key.
Both women remained in silence with radio playing quietly as Ayola operated the vehicle through the streets. Before long Bette decided to speak out.
”How can you trust me so much, Ayola?”

Thank you for the another chapter!
Ok, we still don’t know anything about how Tina lives with her life, does she she even remember Bette?
And maybe, just maybe she even helped with Bette’s parole? Well, or maybe i just want to think that she did.
And i like Bette and Ayola friendship but i hope it will not create sexual or romantic feelings between them ( i still like only B&T relationship)
Thanks for updating this story. Great chapter! PPS
Hi Valerie:
Wonderful chapter; a little sad Ms. Caroll passed, she was like a mother for Bette.
Who has Bette’s apartment now? It looks like someone who wants to keep it as Bette left it; maybe, maybe not.
I would like to know about Tina’s life, but perhaps you will fill us on it when she reappears in Bette’s life.
Very nice Bette’s new friend, Ayola, very compassionate; I hope they remain to be friends,
Thank you very much for this chapter, this story is excellent, I’ll be waiting eagerly for your update (and for the other story too).

Great chapter! Sad that Mrs. Caroll has passed away. Ayola is very nice and what Bette needs to get reacquainted with the outside world. Hopefully, they will remain friends. However, I want Tina to resurface and she and Bette get reintroduced and get to know each other again. Great update!
Hi Valerie,
Can only say ‘Ditto’ to my fellow reader’s Comments.
Great Update.
Look forward to another as soon as possible please.
Need Tina back in the Story and in a positive ‘Tibbette’ way please!
Thanks again

Hi Valerie,
Great chapter as always!
I love that Bette found a great friend in Ayola, that is so important when you are all alone and trying to build a new life. Like i already thought Mrs. Caroll passed away, that is so sad. I hope Ayola will stay a wonderfull friend for Bette and i think she is the link to Tina.
I had to laugh that you named the parole officer Franklin Philips ????
Just like proteonomics, i am wondering about Bette’s old apartment,
I hope you can update soon and that your computer saves your chapter the next time.
Thanks so much for your update., lots of emotion. Looking forward to the next one. Yes
Geez.. it’s just all so sad…i had a feeling her friend and mother had past but the rest is sad as well. She needs love and a since of belonging, fitting in to her own life. Her new friend is helping with that but like others have said friend is were it needs to stay…and I do hope Tina has kept an eye on her all along from afar.fingers crossed thank you.
