Insight. Ch8
She lay staring at the Yellow Pages, still needing answers. If Helena wouldn’t give her them, if Marina said she couldn’t then she’d have to start looking for someone else who would.
Across the courtyard Helena’s apartment sat in silence, displaying no evidence of a lazy Sunday, just an empty hollow appearance that left Bette wondering if she was even at home.
She opened the pages and began flicking through the classifieds to ‘P’, lazily with her left hand, skimming down the section until her eyes fell upon the one she was looking for, Dr C A Kennard.
It was the only ‘Kennard’ in the area. Bette shut the pages firmly, that had to be the one.

About twenty minutes later and she sat outside a two-storey building on a quiet leafy street in her car, having just driven past The Planet only seconds before where her friends sat waiting for her, wondering if she would show. She felt possessed and driven, determined to reveal and uncover whatever secret it was they were all hiding.
She got out of her car quickly and ran across the road, noting that the buildings up and down the street appeared, for the most part, to contain business and therefore would likely be empty at the weekend. It explained the lack of cars on the road and the eerie, still silence that seemed to sweep up and down the sidewalks like the epicentre of a storm.
She stood on the second step down and stared at the brass name plate which bore the name she sought, before sitting down to the sad realisation that a building didn’t get her any further.
There still weren’t any answers to explain how very closed Helena could be at times, how wounded and scared. How her eyes had flashed with green flecks of fire as she mentioned Tina Kennard’s name and how she seemed unnerved by the notion that Bette had spoken to Marina, despite the fact that their conversation gleaned her little at all.
The door behind her opened and a pair of blue high-heels appeared beside her on the steps, each clunk of them against the concrete like a knife against Bette’s fragile heart.

Dr. Kennard’s not an enforcer for the Church of Scientology or anything like that, is she? She’s beginning to creep me out. Or maybe she’s just an agent, an extension of Peggy’s long reach. God, this is getting noirier and noirier.
Do we get to meet Evangeline, as a ghost, flashback or at the grave??? After funnyone’s comment, I’m envisioning Tina as an enforcer in black leather, boots and a riding crop in hand. Tell me your fears, *smack*. LOL, Okay, maybe I should have had one less frozen alcoholic beverage today.
Still haven’t gotten my work done but couldn’t resist this story. now why can’t Helena spend the night? Who is Evangelina
Weird, wonderful and wild.
this story reminds me of a song by blue rodeo…it’s not so much film noir, this song, as it is somehow a reflection of a relationship which itself is a reflection of an introspective landscape..the song is called 5 days in May…the part where helena tells bette not to leave her, there’s something very profound about that, though at quick glance it may seem too much too soon, it really isn’t, it fits the story and gives the characters this sort of intensity…hmmm…anyhoo, i like:) the sex scene made such perfect perfect sense and it was so cosmically and physically yummy. more more? more? mwah mwah mwah
This story is great. Was Helena partying with Evangeline and gave her the drugs that she overdosed on? She’s now all screwed up and feels responsible for Evangeline’s death. Tina being Evangeline’s ex was obvious effected and Marina blames Helena for her sister’s death and Tina for not looking out for her.
Ok I caved just now to say that this is one story here I totally buy Bette and Helena.Sofa keep the twists coming.
how the plot thickens…you gotta love google!!
O.K., time for some more guessing. Helena and Evageline are tied through a Hollywood connection. Helena feels responsible in some way for her overdose. Marina blames Helena in some way for her death. Evageline and Tina are tied through their relationship. Now, why if Tina was personally involved is she treating Helena. Oh crap, this is getting to me. I guess I’ll just wait until tomorrow…when at some point I have to start getting some answers to my questions. You have slipped this in under my nose…it is a Belina story!
HOLY SHIT!!!!! Poor Dr Kennard…how come she’s the only one got it together? or has she?
I loved this chapter. There was something really profound between Bette and Helena’s love scene. I can’t wait to find out more about what happened between all of them. More and PPS
