Helena nodded, then cocked her head and reached out her to stroke Bette’s hand softly with her own.
“And I was wondering if I’m mad, because I’m falling for you so quickly. And I don’t want to be mad. I don’t want to be crazy and do something foolish. And I certainly don’t want to make the mistakes that I made with Tina. But I want another chance to have a life with love…and my daughter.” Bette stopped and inhaled deeply. “And so that was what running through my mind when you came up behind me this morning.”
Smiling, Helena ran her hand up and down Bette’s arm.
“That, and another Nat King Cole song.” Bette began to sing softly, “’Unforgettable. That’s what you are. Unforgettable though near or far. Like a song of love that clings to me, how the thought of you does things to me, never before, has someone been more … unforgettable…’”
“Bette,” Helena cooed, bending forward to kiss Bette’s lips. “Do you need more time?” she whispered.
“Helena, I…”
Angelica screamed and came running into the living room! “Mama! Mama! Ella! Fluffy pee in floor! Made mess!”
“Oh, shit!” Bette yelled, scrambling to get up.
She ran to the kitchen with Helena and Angelica following behind.
“Mama! Not poo-poo! Her pee!”
When they got to the kitchen, the kitten ran between Bette’s legs and around Helena, sprinting out of sight.
Bette stared at the puddle in the floor.
“She hasn’t figured out her box yet, Darling. I’ll get her and take care of it,” Helena said, turning to go and apprehend the kitten.
“Mama, Fluffy need diaper,” Angelica suggested, rubbing her hand over Bette’s leg.
The cell phone rang on Bette’s counter, and she lunged for it. Suddenly, everything became chaos.
“Shit! What now?” she screamed, grabbing the phone and hitting the button to speak. “What?!” she yelled into the phone.
“What’s the matter with you?” Alice screamed back.
“The cat just pissed in the floor, Alice! Dammit!” Bette said, pulling a wad of paper towels from the dispenser.
“And that’s a problem?” Alice cackled.
“Yes, that’s a fucking problem!” Bette yelled, scrunching the towels together with one hand.
“Watch your mouth, Bette! Isn’t Angelica around?” Alice laughed.
“Shut up, Alice! This isn’t funny!” Bette blurted out loudly.
“No? Well, Harry thought I should call and warn you,” Alice said, becoming serious.
“Alice, what the hell are you talking about? You got that monkey?” Bette replied with annoyance and bending over to wipe up the kitten’s mess.
“Mommy, me wanna tawk to Alice,” Angelica said, tugging on Bette’s robe.
“Yeah, me and Harry are best buds. But that’s not the point. He wants to warn you,” Alice said.
“This is gross,” Bette yelled, carrying the wet towel to the trash, her arm extended.
Helena came carrying Fluffy into the kitchen. “She just needs to be set in her box a few times. That’ll take of her accidents post haste.”
“Mama!” Angelica screamed, jumping and reaching for Bette’s phone. “Tawk to Alice!”
“Bette? Did you hear me?” Helena asked, placing the kitten in her box. “It’s going to be all right!”
Bette was looking in one direction and then another rapidly.
“Bette! Are you listening to me?” Alice demanded.
“What, Alice?” Bette screamed, slapping her free hand over her free ear.
“Tina’s on her way! And, boy, is she fucking pissed!” Alice exclaimed.
“Oh, God!”
“Yeah, thought you’d wanna know,” Alice said calmly.
Just then, everyone stopped in their tracks at the loud rapping sound at the door.
“Me get! Me get!” Angelica screamed, her little legs speeding towards the front of the house.
“Angelica! No! You can’t even reach the knob!” Bette called out frantically.
“I’ll get it,” Helena said, considerately trying to help. She let go of Fluffy and they both took off after Angelica.
“No! Helena! Don’t!” Bette yelled.
But it was too late.
Helena had opened the door and was face to face with the visitor.
“Mommy!” Angelica screamed excitedly.
“Tell Harry ‘Thanks!’, Alice,” Bette said in despair, clicking off her phone.

Laughs. OMG. That cat…that cat! Aaarrrggg. Laughs. OMG. This is so hilarious. (: You’ve written this so well that I can literally close my eyes and picture all the havoc! Laughs. Brilliant, as always, Z! PPS! (;
OMG that was hilarious,,,,I like Harry! Bette is now in a heap of problems not that Tina came making more chaos for her. Also, it don’t help that Helena opened the door most likely seeing her in the bathrobe won’t help either. But hey can’t wait to see how Helena is able to handle this as well as Bette. Great chapter Z!!!
jeepers Zheese you really put eveything in the pot when you stir it up. Your to funny but I’m thinking the next chapter might not be, I say “bring it” Thank you, Md
Can this night get any better? I enjoyed the little talk that Bette and Helena had. But as we know their day is only getting started. Maybe Bette should learn the words to “In The Jungle” because that lioness at the door is wide awake!
So the kitten peed on the kitchen floor. What’s the big deal? It wasn’t that long ago that Bette was peeing in plastic bag! And wasn’t the hand that Bette put over her while she was talking to Alice the same one that she had the used (pee soaked) paper towels in? Bette really needs to straighten out her priorities. And Helena doesn’t need to post any of the kitten’s accidents. The only one Tina has a right to pissed (what is it with everybody today? So pissy.) at is Harry.
I think Bette needs to calm down. The kitten is going to have an accident here or there until it is used to its environment and knows where its box is. Screaming and freaking out doesn’t help and what’s the big deal indeed. I hope they stop Tina at the door and tell her they don’t care what she is pissed about, as she has no right to be pissed about anything Bette and Helena do. She and Bette are over, she left Bette. I wish they would shut the door in her face. What plastic bag are you talking about, funny?
wu-ohhhh, that was funny…dude, B has to chill – but the cat thing was funny…enjoyed the update!!!
Irather clean cat pee than have a monkey around me. Kit might just bar Alice if she bring Harry into the planet. I dont have a cat in my home Allergies to them what would a monkey do. I do love that Bette coverd her eyes with the same hand that cleaned up after the cat. Alice just made Tina mader. so Poor bette will get it from Tina for Harry dirty deed. Love this and its so darn funny. thanks
Wow baby this was great. I so had to laugh with Bette but in the meanwhile I felt sorry for her cause knowing how she is I can already imagine her face with the idea of the kitty peeing all over the place. Good thing she has Hel’s to take care of things :) Oh oh now we’re going to get it, the blond fury is at the house, you better watch out. Loved it babe!
HEY Zheese, Thansk for this wild and wonderful chapter. I got a real sense of the frentic nature as Helena had Fluffy, Angie was crying for the phone and ALice was talking about her monkey. Looks like the shit is about to hit the fan as I bet it is Tina at the door. Bette just needs to be calm and work things through with both Tina and Helena. I can’t wait to read more of your delightful drama. Much gratitude from Your Loyal Fan.
I love it when bette gets so frustrated. It makes me laugh because she can’t calm herself, much like me. And now, Tina is at the door ready to kill someone. I can’t wait to read more Z!
