The little boy Daniel from the house next door ran out with a toy plane screaming, and Helena flinched, gathering her cigarettes and disappearing back inside.
Daniel stopped dead as soon as he saw her there, looking intently, as if she were a character from a storybook he owned and therefore knew a tale about. Just like a child would stop if they ran into the dragon that George slay or the evil giant in Jack and the beanstalk who likes to eat small children.
“Weird,” Shane stated again, as just like that she was gone, disappearing inside the dark house,
“Are there never any lights on?” Alice asked, presumably to Bette since she lived there,
Bette shrugged,
“Maybe she works nights?” Dana offered, “so she sleeps in the day?”
Bette shook her head, “I don’t think so,”
In a strange way she wanted them to leave her new neighbour alone, to allow the mystery to remain with her. She felt honoured to have been spoken to, and worried that if they stayed around long enough Helena might choose to come and introduce herself to them all.

But she didn’t reappear all weekend. Bette came and went to the store and the gallery and the new café/bar they’d been to that Friday night which it also turned out made good food and great coffee and was convenient at just a ten minute walk from the house.
Leaving to pick up food for dinner on Sunday, Bette found herself hesitating as she locked up the front door, toying with the insane idea of going over there and asking Helena if she’d like her to pick up something for her too, maybe suggesting that they eat together and get to know one another better. She shook her head and put the idea from her mind, turning to find a blonde woman facing her on the other side of the locked gate.
“Oh … hi,”
Bette seemed hesitant to admit that she’d startled her, reluctant to let herself believe that her new neighbour’s secretive comings and goings unnerved her in what ought be a safe and secure neighbourhood compared to where she ‘used’ to live.
The woman smiled back at her then advanced as the buzzer on the gate went and she was let in, she held it open for Bette to pass though before leaving, no name or intention of where she was going.

Holy Shiii…Shoot! What are you doing to me?!?! This is soooo not fair! I need more! Now! Please! I’m begging…*falling to my knees*…Gawwwwwd!
YOU have zheese on her knees !!! Damn! You are good !!!
intriguing….and there’s a doctor Kennard in blue fuck me heels!!!!!
I like! Waiting for more, intrigued….
This story is really different and I like it very very much. Just great! I’m eager to know more about that mysterious Helena. PPS!!
I love a good mystery!!!!! jinjur
Now, I really like this Helen, as a mysterious, smoking recluse, and Bette all intrigued and wanting to keep Helena for herself. Wonder what Marina knows? This is very good, as always, sofa. Can’t wait for the next chapter. Cheers!
seems there is a connection between Helena and Marina. am I right???? huh??? And once again I ask is this a Belena or a Tibetter story???? please answer this time!!! thanks!!
really enjoyed the post…like the different backgrounds…eccentric…yeah, eccentric, funny!
Oh, Sofa – the plots you weave are always so intriguing. Tina has the doctor that makes housecalls — I love it! Bette seems lost in the mystery of Helena. I have a feeling she’s going to regret having this housewarming party. PPS!!!
As an old stoner (we were potheads in my day. We used to walk to school 10 miles barefoot in the snow and gave the school marm a daily apple), I am pleased no end that Helena, Bette, and Shane all know their spliff. (I roll beautiful, free-hand joints, everyone says so.) So, uh, just what kind of doctor is Tina? Is she of the ‘feel good’ variety? And what happened to Helena’s finishing school manners? Usually it’s Jenny who is a weirdo, but your Helena is a bit dodgy. What the hell’s going on here, anyway?
Aha…a Dr Tina Kennard I presume…and she makes house calls…a rare commodity, so Helena or her Mom have money. That was an interesting reaction from Marina, so I wonder if she knows Helena???? Can’t wait for the next update Sofa!
I’m really intrigued by this story… Helena is so mysterious.. this is awesome!!! PPS
i loves me this story, just love it. my girlfriend, the creative genius;) it’s making me itchy though…the knowledge that *you* know what is going to happen and *i* do not. i want more, but i shall restrain myself since you have work and are apparantly ill. xoxoxox, get well, don’t be sick…and post when you can my brilliant cutie
I am just getting a chance to read this and I am very intrigued even if it may be a potential Belena story.I guess Tina is Helena’s doctor who makes house calls.I am interested in Helena’s background and why she hides herself away.
