“I had to fight for you then, I’ll fight for you now” thought Bette as she snaped back from her memories. She opened her cell phone and dialed.

By that time Alice had finished her meeting and was sitting comfortably at the table with Dana and Tina, telling them all about the next episode of “the chart” when Tina’s phone began to ring. Looking down at the caller id she noticed it was Bette and quickly excused herself to answer the call.

Alice: “Who’s Kit talking to?” she said noticing the petit surfer looking girl with sun bleached hair.

Dana: “I don’t know. I can’t see her face.”

Tina opened her phone and smiled as she walked past Kit.

Alice stood up to investigate the mystery girl but as she was about to walk over, Kit and the girl walked into her office.

Alice: “Damn”

Dana: “Why do you want to know who it is so bad?”

Alice: “I donno, she kinda looked familliar” she said as she scratched her head

Dana: “But you didn’t even see her face”

Alice: “Well I was trying to. Let’s just wait and watch for them to come out” she said as she focased her eyes on the door.

Tina: “So you don’t know whats going on?”

Bette: “I have no ***** idea, nobody’s given me any answers.”

Tina: “Im sorry Bette. Do you want me to come down there?”

Bette: “No it’s ok, it’s probably going to be awhile before I hear anything. Have you seen Kit?”

Tina: “Yeah, she’s at the planet.”

Bette: “So she didn’t say anything?”

Tina: “I didn’t get a chance to talk to her, she was talking to someone I didn’t see who it was. Do you want me to tell her anything?”

Bette: “Yeah just tell her that im here so she doesn’t need to come back and I’ll call her when I hear something”

Tina: “Ok. Call me. Keep me updated?”

Bette: “I will.” she took a deep breath. “Thanks T”

Tina: “For what?”

Bette: “Everything.”

Tina: “Your welcome. Bye”

Bette: “Bye”

Tina looked at her phone and paused for a second before returning to the table.

Tina: “That was Bette”

Alice: “What’s up? Did you two have a fight again?”

Tina:(rolling her eyes) “No, we didn’t have a fight. Her dad’s in the hospital.”

Dana: “What happened?”

Tina: “I don’t know apearently he collapsed, she hasn’t heard anything. Is Kit still here?”

Alice: “Yeah but she’s in her office with some girl”

Tina: “Some girl?”

Dana: “Yeah, Alice didn’t see her face but she thinks she looks familliar”

Alice: “She does look familliar, oh here they come”

Tina turned around to see Kit talking to someone who was more than just familliar. Her eyes widend as her jaw practicly dropped to the floor.

Tina: “That can’t be her..”
