LABRADORITE
JENNY
That’ll be all.
BETTE
Alright. I’ll see you.
JENNY
Have a pleasant day.
JENNY watches BETTE walk away, turns and heads for her shining newly purchased vintage pink Cadillac convertible, with the top down and her dog sitting in the passenger seat. JENNY gets in the driver’s seat, reaches to the back for her driving hat, puts on some ridiculously large sunglasses from dashboard, wraps her Versace scarf around her mouth, and drives off.
INTERIOR-BETTE’S OFFICE-AFTERNOON
BETTE is in her office looking through student portfolios. Her ASSISTANT pokes his head in.
ASSISTANT
Tina’s on line one.
BETTE
Tell her I’ll talk to her later today.
TINA
She says it’s urgent.
BETTE
Okay, fine. I’ll take it.
BETTE CONT’D
(reluctantly) Tina.
TINA
Bette, are we going to talk about this?
BETTE
What is there to talk about?
TINA
Is that how you’re going to be? Why can’t you just come out and tell me the truth about how you’re feeling.
BETTE
I think it was a mistake.
TINA
Maybe it was, but I don’t see why we can’t talk about it. You said we were best friends, right?
BETTE
We are best friends, but I just don’t want to hurt you or anyone else for that matter.
TINA
I know Bette, after everything we’ve been through don’t you think I know that?
BETTE
Look, Tina. I just need some time to think things through. Is that okay? And then we can talk.
TINA
Okay, I understand. Just know that you can talk to me about it. Okay?
BETTE
Okay. I’ll call you tonight.
TINA
Alright, bye.
BETTE hangs up and leans back in her chair and puts her face in her hands. Her ASSISTANT leans his head in the door.
ASSISTANT
Shane on line one.
BETTE
I have to get through these portfolios before I leave, but tell her that I’ll call her when I get home.
ASSISTANT
Okay.

What an intriguing setup: I’m hooked! Your dialogue is wonderfully believable and Jenny is a hoot, although as an animal lover I’m a bit worried about the well-being of her dog.
Well, the least one can say is you got us all pretty intrigued. I really wonder what may have happened between Bette and… Who was it actually ? How frustrating !! Anyways, this is indeed a very interesting and promising start. I just think it’s a shame the chapter is so short. You’d better not make us wait forever for another update, Cm4it. Thank you very much for sharing this story with us. I have a feeling I’m going to love this.
CME, what a great start. Well this sure has me hooked already. B&S together this is going to be great!!!! Thanks PPVS
I knew it! Bette and Shane. Am I right? Good beginning…..PPS
Alright Cme!! Great start. I’m intrigued, but will not even attempt to guess the what….although my mind kept screaming: What is it?!! lol You have a nice setup for almost anything. Thanks for getting us going on and for sharing….PPS
