NEW YORK MINUTE 110
“A little too much “Peggy said dryly “I fear London if asked would not say the same about having Helena “
They had reached Mary who was looking at a picture
“Mom – this is our very good friend Peggy Peabody – Peggy – this is Mary Kennard”
Tina was worried but she didn’t have any reason to – – Peggy could turn on whatever level of charm that was needed. She clasped her hand
“My dear how marvelous to meet you – you have such a delightful daughter – she is such a credit to you “
Peggy knew full well that Tina was who she was not because of her parents but it was a kind thing to say and Mary smiled
“Thank you Mrs. Peabody “
“Please call me Peggy – may I call you Mary?”
“Of course”
“Are you looking forward to the wedding?”
Peggy was in full flow and overwhelming Mary with charm and questions. Tina smiled – Helena had the same charm when she bothered to use it – not that she did often enough she preferred to steam roller rather than play nice. Tina turned – Bette was clearly suffering with Brother John – her smile was not so much fixed into placed as smeared on with glue and the glue was beginning to loosen.
“I hope you have a good Christmas Brother “Bette said seeing at last an end to her torture
“Tell me Elizabeth – who is that pretty blonde over there. She has been looking at you a lot”
Bette paused – she rarely hides her sexuality but it was a matter that she had not discussed in front of the Brother but maybe it was a time to test his humanity
“That is Tina – my future wife”
At least she didn’t have to explain Peggy to him.
As Bette later explained to Tina and Peggy she had half hoped he was offended enough to never darken her gallery again.
“Oh – oh – well that is just splendid. I only asked because she has such a gentle aura. While you have a very positive aura Bette as I have often told you – well I have to say that you are a worrier. Tina seems much less prone to be troubled by trivial matters “
Bette examined the comment for any sort of sense and not finding any in her first sweep she reapplied her best smile
“Thank you John – that is very kind of you. You have all the details written down for the deal and did you give me your phone number?”
“I do not have a phone at my current dwelling but I will come in every day just to check”
“It will be after next Monday “Bette said
He nodded and clasped both her hands in his “Bless you again Elizabeth “
“Thank you Brother – have a peaceful Christmas”
“And may you and Tina be blessed with love and peace”
Precious little chance of peace with Angelica around Bette thought to herself but managed to steer John to the doors and watched as he pulled his cape round him and headed down the stairs and out of her gallery.

I am very happy for the update!
Hmm, Tina and cocktails, not a great match ;-).
Poor Roger, dealing with the woman he loves so much and now in hospital, i really hope that this will be Kit’s wake up call to change and fight her addictions.
And Bette is doing what she can to help, but she is right, she can’t go back to LA.
Great update! Thank you.
Thanks for another update…..
Another Gift – thanks Ally !!
I love your writing and your characterisations especially of Tibette !
Tina and Bette waited … mmmmm cocktails relax in the arms of Tina. Thank you for this chapter Congratulations on your wonderful mind and share it with your fans.
Loved it. I love Peggy and all her antics. Feel sorry for Roger but Kit was headed there for awhile. Hope the parents moving closer won’t be an issue. Thanks, I just love your style of writing
Welcome Home ! And thank you, for returning !!
Thank you for this chapter!
I have missed your writing. Thank you for the latest update
so very happy to see your post. I have missed reading your stories so much. Glad you are back.
Thank you! I stayed awake for this amazing update! I love me so Peggy! PPS
Thanks for the update AllyE, a very pleasant and happy surprise. Tina has to remember that she can not keep up with Peggy when she drinks and besides Bette can’t stand the taste of alcohol on Tina nor the smell since she no longer drinks. She has told Tina that already and Tina should remember that and let Peggy drink alone, she will understand. Besides Tinas’ mother couldn’t drink either. Great chapter AllyE. Thanks again.
I hope Kit can recover from addiction, and
she and Bette are able to reconnect.
Every constellation in the universe.
Great update. I love the banter between Bette and Tina. I find horny, Tina funny. I’m not sure about the parents moving closer.
I echo “Sassy Gran”….enjoy your writing a lot! You are at the top of my “faves” , even though
sometimes I can get lost in your British colloquialisms. Not a problem…even cute at times.
