“A screenwriter? That’s so interesting. What studio?” Bette asked.
“Shaolin. It sounds a lot more glamorous than it really is, I’m afraid. I’m working on a small indie film right now.”
“That sounds amazing,” Alice cooed. “Bette here works in an art gallery. You two have lots in common. Both right brains.”
“Right brains?”
“Yeah, you’re both into that artsy-fartsy stuff. You know, more creative than analytical.”
“Oh.” Tina turned her attention back to Bette. “An art gallery? Do you organize shows?”
“Yes,” Bette said simply. “I love art and I love my job. Helping new artists get discovered and cultivating appreciation for our modern established artists is a great source of pride for me.”
“She also does charity work,” Dana piped in helpfully. “Working with at-risk youth to teach them about art and the world around them.”
“Wow,” Tina said, looking at Bette with sincere admiration. “I wish I could do something like that.”
“Oh… it’s not a big deal, just something I do on the weekends. If you want I can give you the number of the community center I work with. You could do something for young writers,” Bette smiled.
“I’d love to,” Tina said. She rummaged around in her purse and jotted down her number, handing it to Bette. Bette fished a card out of her purse and gave it to Tina.
“I’ll call you,” they said in unison, and then laughed.
“Mmhmm,” Alice and Dana were exchanging a knowing glance, and Bette felt her face warming.
Bette changed the subject then and asked Tina about where she lived before she came to L.A., how she liked it in California, and other small talk questions with an aim at getting to know her better. Tina did the same, asking Bette for more details her job and telling her about the folk art of the Southwest where Tina had come from.
Alice and Dana behaved, eavesdropping but carrying on their own gossipy chat about some of the other attendees. They took turns getting up and dancing with other women. Shane came by and said a quick goodnight to the table at large, loping towards the exit with two giggling college-aged girls in tow.
