So can I get you something to drink? Water, soda, coffee, tea or beer? She asks them.

Oh I think I would have a beer. Jeffrey replies.

Ill have a glass of water. Joanna says.

And you kids, you want a coke? Bette asks.

Yeah. They both replies.

Emily, Sean? Bette asks.

Ill also take a coke, and give Sean a beer. Emily says as she smiles to Sean.

Let me help you. Joanna says and follows Bette into the kitchen.

Oh, thank you. Bette replies.

Bette takes out the drinks from the fridge.

You have a beautiful home. Joanna says to Bette.

Thank you, but its all Tina, I have just contributed with the artwork. Tina is the one who has decorated, picked the furniture and the color of the walls. And she does all the cleaning. Bette says and smiles.

Yes, shes always liked to clean and decorate. She did that with her room, several times. Her room was always clean, never any clothes spread around. Its a good quality. Joanna says as she opens the beer bottles.

Im not good at cleaning, it takes me days to do what takes Tina a couple of hours. Bette says as she laughs a little.

We cant all be neat freaks, I hate cleaning. Joanna whispers. But it has to be done. She continues. Bette is smiling more.

Joanna, were having a BBQ tonight, and our friends are coming over. Actually theyre out family. Two of them are living next door. One is my sister, one is my ex actually, now were best friends and then theres her girlfriend, you might know who she is, her name is Dana Fairbanks. Bette says. Joanna thinks for a moment.

Ooh yes, shes that Tennis player? She asks.

Yes, thats her, theyre all great people, and we are proud to call them our family. It was Tinas idea to invite them over tonight, she wants them to meet her family. Bette says and looks at Joanna.
It sounds like an exciting evening. Joanna replies.

Bette smiles at this. They walk outside with the drinks.

A little later Tina comes out with Angelica. She stops in front of Joanna.

Do you want to hold her? She asks. Joanna smiles and nods.
