    Author Notes:

    Insight: The capacity to discern the true nature of a situation …

    “Bagel?” Helena offered, as Bette reappeared dressed for work,

    Bette smiled and nodded, “Thanks,”

    They sat on the sofas together, sipping grape juice and coffee with freshly toasted bagels, lox and cream cheese,

    “Mmn …” Bette bit into one and remembered for a second how much her body enjoyed taking the time for food in the mornings,

    Helena stared back at her, “We should be friends Bette,” she announced, smiling graciously, “tell me, what do you do?”

    Bette wiped the corners of her mouth, “Um … I own a gallery downtown, the ‘Bette Porter’ Gallery,”

    “I’ve never heard of it!” Helena grinned, “but I’m sure I’d love to see it,”

    “Well you should come down,” Bette offered, “I’ll show you around,”

    She hesitated to ask about what Helena did, expecting her to run off like before, deciding to wait instead and see what information she offered,

    “Let’s go shopping?” Helena announced, barely letting Bette finish half of her breakfast,

    Bette choked a little and laughed, “Um … Helena, it’s 7.30am …”

    “So?” Helena grabbed her hands, “haven’t you ever wanted to go shopping on Melrose when nobody else is around?”

    “None of the stores will be open!” Bette stressed, thinking her new friend to be slightly mad,

    Helena grinned, “Even better, I can’t spend any money then,”

    Her strange attire had gone, making way for elegant jeans, expensive boots and a beautiful chemise under a neatly fitting jacket. Bette felt obliged to smile as they left the apartment arm in arm, strolling down the street as Helena insisted they walk to Melrose since the sun was out and shining,

    So they walked, Bette tried to remember the last time she walked anywhere in LA let alone before 8am with a beautiful woman on her arm. If anyone she knew saw her they’d likely do a double take or crash their cars in surprise because Bette drove, erratically, and cursed any pedestrians who dared to step in her way.

    ~

    “You went ‘shopping’ …?” Alice repeated, catching Bette on the phone finally after she’d turned up over an hour late for work and without her car, “where?”

    “Melrose,” Bette replied, leafing through her morning mail whilst half listening to Alice,

    2. Somehow I knew Helena would wait for a more private party with Bette. I love all the mystery. Helena seems deeply wounded and lost, almost as though she is searching for an identity. I wonder if she’s really a writer? Oh, the intrigue… I hope you are able to post again soon – I still have too many questions! Great job, SS!

    4. Well, that clarified everything. Bette is gay. Does Helena have a little chemical imbalance or something? She seems a little manic. Or something. And the good Doctor seems rather a shrink. Well, all conjecture as the mystery deepens.

    7. And the intrigue just keeps building! O.K. I’m going out on a limb here and say Dr Kennard is Helena’s psychiatrist…because Helena is either nuts or suffering some sort of depression. Perhaps something very traumatic has happened to her…loved one lost maybe??? Wow, I hope we get another post tomorrow!

    8. hey Sofa, just catching up, this is very intresting, I was lost after the first chapter, after the 2nd. I thought there would be a love triangle and wondered what marina knows not I’m wondering what Marina knows because nobody at the party made her come clean. Waiting for the next chapter, get well soon. Thank you. Md

    9. This is just absolutely outstanding! I’m hanging on every word! Doesn’t happen often! Geez! The mysterioso (is that a word?…don’t care) is just … gawwwwwwwwwwwwwd….outstanding!…I’m sorry…but you just rock the hell outta most anything i’ve ever read! Ummm…hope you feel better! Get well soon! And keep on keepin’ on! Wow! Just Wow! I think you’ve left me blabbering…
