“Frosting,” Bette replied, “and don’t change the subject.” She sat listening to Marina’s earthy silence, “Marina!?!?”
Marina stared back at her, frustrated, “What?”
“Who *is* she?”
Marina sighed and took a seat next to her, handing her the plate of carrot cake which Bette tore into instantly,
“That’s Tina Kennard,” she replied flatly, “she and I used to know someone in common.”
Her explanation left Bette without anywhere much further to go, since she’d only held Marina’s acquaintance for a couple of weeks and seeing her interaction with the blonde woman Bette could tell that she wasn’t a person to be messed around with.
“How does Helena know her?” Bette finally asked, seeing a way around her current problem, “and how do ‘you’ know Helena?” she added,
Marina picked up her apron again and stood up, returning to work, she turned to Bette and strained a smile, “I think that’s something you should probably ask Helena.”

“Just gets weirder,” Shane mumbled, the hood on her sweater pulled down right over her eyes as she tried to stave off her hangover from the night before.
Bette nodded painfully, “I know,”
They sat convened around Bette’s haven of work, the other three being less than useful when it came to coming up with imaginative ideas for Bette to use when it came to selling her grant proposal.
“No work …” Alice whined, pushing Bette’s laptop away, she sipping on a glass of orange juice through a straw, “Saturdays aren’t for working they’re for gossiping,” she added, the comment pointedly aimed at Bette.
Bette shrugged, “I have none, I’ve already told you everything I know.”
Except that wasn’t strictly true. Where she’d relayed the strange details of Marina’s meeting with the blonde woman seen entering Helena’s inner sanctum, she’d also elected to leave out the eerie feeling it left her with, the look in Marina’s eyes and she evaded Bette’s questions and the sad haunting expression on the blonde woman’s face as she left The Planet alone, evidently hoping the outcome of her going there had been different.
“Tina Kennard,” Shane mumbled again, “do I know that name?”
Dana shrugged, less hungover and therefore sharper than the rest, “I dunno,” she replied, “she’s a woman and she lives in LA, it’s highly probable …”

Ahhhgggg…Helena’s not the only one that won’t give straight answers. Well, now we at least know how Marina fits into the picture. Something happened with Evie and Helena feels in some way responsible. Oh well, I’ll have to wait until tomorrow for another piece of the puzzle!
Totally enjoying your story. You’ve got me completely intrigued.
Thank you for the lovely present, I’m touched and honored. You know, I like BettyV, but she’s gonna have to wait for her own birthday, I ain’t sharing! The flavor of this thing is far less A. Spelling than that of a couple of sinister romances that starred Barbara Stanwyck: Double Indemnity and The Strange Love of Martha Ivers. Both of them great films. I’m enjoying this.
ok, Ms. Sofasitte the way I figure it, it’s almost morning in your part of the world, and in my mind that means were close to getting another installment of this story, week-end and all maybe two, well anyway, Ms jigsaw I NEED MORE. Thank you. Md
oooooooh, i can’t wait to see you! i’m going to go outside and run around the block fifty times to burn off this crazy energy which is caused when i know that i’m going to see you soon. ok, i’m going to re-read this story…it really is good, and i like that things are unfolding in their own good time. brilliant love, seriously!
this chapter has left me more intrigued than ever. PPS!!
Mmm like a refreshing beverage this story works well on a Friday night.
(a referral may be needed)…Geezus, couch…you’re killing me here! I’ve had a really really really long and horrible day…so tired…and now drinking wine…and I’ve read this chapter like three times…And you’re effing killing me! YOU AREN’T ANSWERING ANY QUESTIONS!!!! You are stimulating more!! Dagnabit! You’re evil…severely evil! :) (But I love it…despite the fact that it makes me feel excruciatingly stupid)…Gawwwwwwwwwd! Did Tina have a fling with Hel…and Evie kill herself?…or…did…Uh…What’s that number of that shrink? And I don’t wanna see Dr. Kennard…she’s scaring me! Evil! Pure, unadulterated evil, you are! :) Keep it coming…UMMMMM…not that I like evil…me not like that…but…oh…couch…you just really better give me some answers soon…puhleeze!! (And tanks to you for posting daily…I’m always happily surprised that you do…quite an accomplishment!) :) :) :) You are really really frustrating me! pfffffffffft :P :)
Once again I just caught up.I am utterly perplexed how Tina fits into the story. Umm isn’t against ethics to counsel somebody you had a prior relationship with no matter what kind.
Intrigue is an understatement here. Love your writing. look4ward to more.
Riddle me this…riddle me that…you sure do weave a tangled web.
hhhhhhmm mysterious, plz post soon…love Dr Kennard’s signature fuck me blue heels…this sounds like a tragedy of romeo and juliet proportions…keep bette safe, she sounds so naive…again pps.
ack, what happened to Evangeline, what happened??? This history repeating itself, I hope it’s not cause for serious worry… but whatever happened, it made Helena a chain-smoking recluse and Marina unforgiving. If it repeats itself, I fear for everyone involved… great, sofa, love the story. ta
hooked!!!!! looking forward to the update.
Very, very mysterious story… Just brilliant! When I started to read this chapter I was full of hope to get some answers to all those questions. And you know what? Now I have even more questions than I had before! You could throw in some answers every now and then, before we’re going to die from to much suspense! :-D And yes, you make my day every day you post ;-) Keep up the good work. More and PPS!
i love this storrrry…why didn’t my comment last night stick? i commented. grrr…anyway, i think this is sheer brilliant brilliance! i want to read more and i’ll wait patiently for it. reading this while watching Adaptation is a jolly good and mind bending thing to do. xoxox baby *smile*
