“Come on Tina, I’m not stupid. It can’t be coincidence that you show up at my gallery and then save my life a few weeks later. Not to mention that I have seen your car more than once before following me.”
I put my glass down. I realised that there was no way out. “Ok, he is paying me. He thinks you’re having an affair and he wanted proof.”
“Well I’m not you know.”
“I know.”
“I hate him.” She started as she played with the rim of her glass. “I know it’s a harsh statement, but we haven’t been husband and wife for more than a year.” I remained quiet as she spoke. Truth is I had no idea what to say to her at that point. “Do you know that he is sleeping with my secretary?”
“Um, no I didn’t.” I replied.
“He thinks I don’t know about it.” The doorbell rang at that point. I was more than grateful for the distraction. “Excuse me.” She returned with dinner. She cleared the coffee table and spread some napkins before sharing the food.
“So how come you haven’t asked me to leave yet?”
“I don’t know. I guess I like the company.”
“Are you mad?”
“At you?” I barely nodded. “No. And besides, I don’t get mad, I get even.”
“God, should I be worried?” She laughed, but i wasn’t really joking that time. We ate and the conversation flowed freely. I didn’t realise how late it was until she turned the television on for the late news at eleven. “It’s late, I should get going.”
“You don’t have your car remember.” She got her keys. “I’ll drop you.”
“No no, I can call my friend.” I felt for my cell phone, and then remembered I left it in my car. “May I use your phone?”
“Sure, you can use the one in the kitchen.”
“Thanks.” I went to the kitchen and called Shane. If I call Alice now there would be too many questions to answer, especially when she has to pick me up at Jeff Johnson’s place. “Hey.” I replied when she answered her phone. “You busy? Can you come pick me up?” I gave her the address and directions to Bette’s place, I also gave her the number just in case she needed to use it. “Thanks, I’ll see you in a bit.” I met Bette back in the living room. “My friend Shane will be here soon.”
“If it means anything, I enjoyed your company tonight.”
“Me too.” I took a napkin and wrote my cell and home number on it and handed it to her. “If ever you need someone to talk to.”
“Thanks.”
“You’re welcome.”

Totally hooked on your story. I haven’t seen the movie so I’m looking forward to how this tangled web of deceit plays out.
This is good and love it!
Hello bntfan, I must say that this story is so good, really engaging and really keeps the spirit of these characters while weaving them into the tapestry of a whole new scenario. That phone call Tina made might just come back to bit her in the @$$, I would imagine that it is being monitored at all times. Keep up the amazing work and PPS. Sincerely, JC (PS – I was thinking the inspiration was from a film called Indiscreet starring Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman that I just purchased and yet haven’t had the chance to watch, thank you for informing me otherwise :P)
:)
I was thinking the same thing about that phone call. Hopefully Tina won’t end up in a pickle somehow.
I vaguely remember that Gloria Ruben movie, so your story seems fresh to me. Which is great because then I won’t second guess it. Great update.
This is really good! Can’t wait for them to meet up again. I bet the lifetime movie is a remake of the Cary Grant movie. PPS!!
I’m really enjoying your story. Thanks!
Haven’t read the story yet but, saw your author’s notes and was comeing back here to tellyou that you should see the original with Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant and see that others have already informed you. The original is quite something to behold, as you can imagine with that smouldering Ingrid Bergman and suave Cary Grant.
got the heebeejeevees when the confrontation came up, was good!!!! So ONTO THE NEXT POST PLEASE!!!! Time for that dirt bag to disappear!!!
I was nervous when Bette started grilling Tina.. but I’m glad she was fine about it. PPS.
i like this… and i have a good feeling bette will be calling tina real soon… pps
I think I’m hooked and so is Tina now maybe she will do a little independent investigation on Bette’s husband in case she ever needs the evidence.
