Alice pouted playfully, sliding her mobile phone into the pocket of her apron, “Alright…” she said, sneaking another peek at her phone just as she was about to let it go.
“Don’t make me confiscate that phone from you now!”

I heard my phone ring as I raced to pick it up, “Hello?”
“Hey Helena, it’s Tasha.”
“Hey!”
“I’m sorry, is this a bad time?”
“No no, I was just…just prepping some stuff…how are you?”
“I’m fine, I just wanted to call to check in on you.”
“I’m good, busy…very busy….”
“That’s great to hear,” she said, “I also wanted to wish you a happy belated birthday…”
“Oh! You remember!” I replied, surprised.
She laughed, “Of course, my friends say I have the memory of an elephant…anyway, I’m sorry I didn’t call on the day itself. I was out of town on a business trip…”
“That’s alright,” I told her.
“Did you have a fun birthday?”
I smiled to myself, remembering Bette’s gift, “It was…full of unexpected surprises.”
“Just the way birthdays should be,” she replied, “So, will you be free for another cup of coffee soon?”
“I would love to but I’m so swamped…rain check for sometime next week?”
“Sure, give me a call.”
“I will, take care now.”
“You too, talk soon.”

Alice and I scampered through the rest of the week, and when Sunday was finally over, I was happy to sit and spend the evening with Becky. I felt like such a horrible mother, having to bring her into work with me sometimes after she finished school. I knew that she liked being around Dragonfly and was intrigued with the preparation of the food, but I desperately wanted to spend more quality time with her.
Alice and I decided to take a split shift on Monday since we had gone through a hectic week, so after I finished things up in the morning, I headed home to prepare a special lunch for Becky. Her favourite dish currently was roasted chicken, herb potatoes and grilled vegetables; I was happy to oblige her.
After lunch, Becky and I spent some time playing in our pool before curling up on the deck chairs as she recounted her day in school.

Your writing gives me a severe case of gluttonitis…I could just eat it up all day and all night and all of tomorrow! Yummy! Good stuff! I loved giggly Alice telling Hel about Dana…I loved little Becky who has moved past meatloaf to chicken and veggies…and I’m really really intrigued by this trip to Bali that will be ensuing with Tina! **Gulp**…**licking my lips**…More please and thanky, euni!
Hey there cousin, my Uncle was a cool man;) Well I am glad that Helena was finally working and that business was thriving, she was living for a reason her daughter, buss,friends and for Bette’s letters and surprises. So glad that Al mentioned Tina, she really has helped Helena and Becky and find it perfect. Really enjoyed this chapter cousin,,,,,,
Nice vacation coming up. Will we be seeing the start of HeleTina. Tilena? They have been pretty close.
ummmm Tina? It’s not a bad idea. After all she is family too. Welcome bck missed this story. Missed more Bette. Can not get over the fact that se will not see Becky growing. PPVS
Well this is progressing nicely… Tina sounded a bit reluctant so maybe she’s not feeling as strongly toward Helena as I thought. The sun and winds of Bali will weave their magic on these two I predict… More soon, Euni! :>)
some things have changed but i still think that bette is there everyday with helena PPS ive emailed u check ur inbox
Loved the update E…and of course you can abbreviate my sign on…it is lenghthy, eh (LOL). I would like an H and Tasha story…something about a pairing with Tina wouldn’t feel right…I can understand how it would happen…but it doesn’t feel right!!! As usual loved it MORE please!!!
Bette is such a romantic to even think about stuff like that while being sick. So Tina is going to join them huh, does this mean you are going to introduce us to some Heletina or will it be too soon and we might end up with some Heletash (geez that doesn’t even sound right LOL)
