“We’re doing good. She’s in the marketing business so sometimes she has to travel a lot. There is a company in San Francisco that’s trying to get her to work for them, but she doesn’t want to take it.”

“Why not?”

“Well she doesn’t want to leave me and Becky.”

“Oh” The coffee is done brewing so she gets up and gets a couple of cups and hands one to Tina.

“Thanks” She takes a sip. “Wow this is really good.”

“Well what did you expect?” She smiles.

“I don’t know, it’s just thatnever mind.” She takes another sip.

“No, no, go ahead, finish what you were going to say.”

“Well your coffee never tastes this good.”

“Ouch, I thought you liked the way I made coffee.”

“Well, not really.” She begins to laugh.

“Oh god, that’s news to me.”

“I’m sorry, but I’m serious this is a really good cup of coffee.”

“Thanks, I think. So how is Kelly doing?”

“She’s doing all right. Still sleeping it off like the rest of the girls. I was surprised Kit got so drunk last night.” Tina smiles remembering some things the night before and Bette notices.

“What?”

“I wonder if she’ll remember that she was dancing with all those other women, I mean really dancing.”

“Oh god please don’t remind her, she is going to flip out.” They both laugh.

Kit comes in. “Remember what?”

Tina turns. “Nothing”

“Oh, well don’t leave a girl hangin’ get me some coffee.”

Bette gets up and gets her coffee. Tina’s gawking doesn’t go unnoticed by Kit. Bette gives her the cup and takes a sip.

“This is hazelnut with a little bit of French vanilla isn’t it Tina.”

She looks at her. “Kit I really have no idea, I just know it tastes really good. Ask Betteshe made it.”

Kit looks at her.

“You serious?” Then looks at Bette. “You made this?” Pointing to the coffee. Bette rolls her eyes. “Yes I made the coffee okay? Why is that so surprising?”

“Bette you know that is news to anyone since they know what you’re like in the kitchen. Poor slices of bread would be runnin’ for their lives.” Kit and Tina laugh.
