Prodigal Chapter 16
Maybe, Tina said, shrugging.
Bette wrinkled her nose. How do you think she called you? I mean, she said your dad retired and hes in the house all the time. Did she throw him out or something? Bette shifted the baby to her shoulder, rubbing her back in soothing circles.
That is a brilliant question, Carrie answered. Ive been wondering that myself. My guess is that she wasnt home. Ill bet the advance on my next book that she was at Dans house. If Ive had a partner in crime the past six years, it has been Ann.
What did the caller id say? Tina asked.
Moms cell phone, Carrie answered.
Mom, our mother, who cant press record on the vcr without blowing a fuse, has a cell phone? Tina asked, disbelieving.
Dont worry. Im pretty sure thats the first time she has ever used it. I bought it for her last year. Things havent changed all that much, Carrie said smiling gently. She checked her watch. God, girls, Im sorry. I have to go. I have a bunch of phone calls to make before I meet
When will we see you again? Bette asked.
I dont know. I dont know how long this thing with
No, honey, thats ok. Ill be fine, Tina said, glancing at Bette.
Carrie smiled. Of course you will. Ill definitely call you later tonight though. Ill call your cell just in case youre on with mom, ok?
That would be perfect, Tina said and held her arms out for Carrie. She hugged her sister close. I love you.
I love you too. She kissed Tinas cheek and turned to her sister-in-law. Later, baby, she said to Angelica, kissing the back of the babys head, her hand covering Bettes on the babys back. You too, she said to Bette, and, eyes sparkling, she winked.
Do us all a favor, would you? Bette asked.
Anything, Carrie said sincerely.

Carrie is playing with fire and is going to get burned.
rattle snakes kill people, carrie better have some anti-vemon
Carrie needs to leave helena alone she is bad news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great story… hope all is well and you will be updating soon.
Thank you
Damn the game Carrie play with Helena is a adventure and fire and let see how the game began. Post soon, thanks!
Caroline should call Helena’s bluff and ask her a hundred million.
I love Bette with the baby. Tina’s mother should have a Xanax handy for that phone call. Black baby daddy – ha!!!
I trust Helena Peabody about as far as I can throw the Capitol Records Building.
Caroline should follow suit.
Thank you for coming back with another post. I love this story!
I failed to mention after the last chapter that, I love your story and what you are doing with it. By exploring Tina’ family and background, you have broaded the scope of your story and added alot of texture that I.C. has missed in the series. I love Carrie’s interaction with Bette. I think that she has the potential to be as valuable sister-in-law for Bette as Kit has been for Tina. In reference to Carrie’s dealing with Helena, I am not as worried as everyone else seems to be. If Helena uses or screws over Carrie, not only will she have deal with Tina and the gang, But Carrie’s boyfriend family seem to also be very powerful people. I also remember you mention that the invest in the Arts, which is right up Bette’s ally , along with the fact that Carrie lives in NY where Bette has to go sometimes to book artist. I would love to see them team up to give Helena a taste of humble pie. Please post again soon. Your story is very refreshing.
I totally agree with CPQ fine comment !
Anyway, Helena Peabody is a very interesting character and an ideal way to bring dramas in any story ! We always need someone to hate in stories, no ? *wink*
Oh, and don’t worry about any “idealistic” touch : after all, fiction is such a delightful way to dream…
Now, I cannot wait for Tina’s mother reaction ! ^_^
carrie can take care of herself…besides, when all else fails….call BETTEZILLA!
Carrie/Bette – wonderful Bette needs someone like Carrie
Carrie/Helena – hhmmm watch out for the curves
Looking forward to the next installment Tina/Rose/black Bette & daddies;0)
HElena likes Kennard family a lot..lol..one more to her collection..lol..i hope Carrie knows what she is doing..great chapter post soon thanks :o)
Helena is really good at playing people…lets just hope Carrie is capable of outplaying Helena.
Caroline should stay as far away from the fire breathing dragon as she can!!! Great chapter, post soon.
this is great, write soon
she better watch her back for that witch!
This is an awesome stoy. I lke that Tina’s Mom stood up to her Husband. Oh yeah , I soo don’t trust Helena.
