NEW YORK MINUTE 110
Bette had just squeezed herself between Angie and Sheba when her phone sounded and when she saw the name she got up and went into foyer to take the call. She went back into the kitchen. Tina looked like she had been crying
“You okay?”
“I pissed you off “
“Yes you did but we can blame the cocktails and the fact that you are not used to drinking them.”
“Thanks “
Tina turned to face Bette rubbing her face
“Just remind me in future will you?”
“I will try “Bette said “Roger just called “
Tina could see that Bette looked serious
“What is it?”
“Kit has collapsed and has been admitted to hospital. He is going back to LA – and he’s going to push for her to sell the café to me on the condition that Kit never finds out it’s me doing the buying. I guess the money I took today will be going to Roger to try and get some help for my sister”
“Oh God – well I suppose it’s what you and I both expected”
Bette sighed – she suddenly felt very tired
“I hope this is a turning point for her like me being hospitalised was for me”
“Did he say what had happened ?”
“Just that Alice had found her collapsed at the café and she was in hospital so Roger was cutting short his New York shows and heading back”
“You aren’t going back are you ?”
“No honey – I am the last person she would want to see and any conversation with Alice and Jenny would not go well would it?”
“Probably not – I am sorry Bette”
Bette shrugged “It is what it is – I wish I could have helped but” Bette stopped “You know she would do the opposite of what I said”
Tina nodded “She used to hang on your every word”
Bette was silent for a few minutes “Would you mind if I went off to the club for a swim for an hour or so ?”
“Are you sure?”
“I think I need to process everything and I don’t think I would be the best company for you and Angie “
Tina had always hated that Bette needed solo time but this time around she knew how important it was for both of them. And this time around Bette asked if it was okay by Tina which did make things better
“Take as long as you need”
“Are you sure?”
“I am a little grumpy and I need to sober up – we could probably use an hour apart”
“Thanks babe – I love you”
“I love you too “
“It is going to be okay”
“I hope so – we are going to be fine – the jury is out about my sister “

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 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.
