James had been dating Julie Strum for several months. He had met her when she was accidentally knocked over by one of James’ movers when they were unloading a painting. Julie was blind. She didn’t see the movers and her dog didn’t react fast enough resulting in her being knocked into the planter in the front of the Gallery. She begrudgingly agreed to lunch and they have been a couple ever since. Bette helped by nudging Julie to go to lunch with him that first day and she was happy about this match.
”What is this proposition?”
”It’s about a class. I think they want you to teach one at the University. I know you have been asked before by other Universities in the area, but this would mean a lot to me, if you hear her out.”
Bette sighed, ”Okay, when is she coming?”
”She should be here any time.” James paused, ”While we wait, I have something to show you. Paul found it. You know him and finding odd things, but this isn’t a piece of art. It’s a letter that he thought you would find interesting.”
”Really?” Bette tilted her head, ”Hmm, it is turning out to be an interesting day for sure. I got this envelope today with a bunch of information about the ”Nazi Degenerate Art” exhibit back in the 30’s. It was really weird. It came by way of a professor and colleague of an old girlfriend of mine from my years at Yale.” Bette paused, as she caught James’ giving her a raised brow. He started to say something and then changed his mind. He turned, reached over to his desk and handed her the letter. ”I had heard she passed last Fall,” Bette continued as she flipped the envelop back and forth. ”Anyways… I am not sure why but it seems she wanted me to have the research she had about the exhibit. I haven’t gone through everything yet, but it looked pretty thorough.” She sat staring at the envelop.
”Seriously? James gave her an intent look that was questioning more than just what was in the package. He changed the subject towards the letter sensing, Bette was not going to give anymore information about the sender of the package. ”How odd,” James said, ”Paul thinks this letter is about a piece of art from that period.”

Hey Lady,
WooHoo!!!!! You posted!!!!!
Can’t wait to read your update & welcome back!!!!
Will get to it this weekend – I promise!!!
I am so excited for you!!!!
Will comment soon.
All the best my friend.
Hi! I write again when i read it full, but i remember the history about this two exhibition – i remember that amount of people who attended the second exhibition ”Degenerate art” was huge, much more than approved by nazi ”German Art ”
P.S. Thank you for the new (continuation) story!
Hey SuperK,
Again, welcome back to the site. You have been missed.
Glad to see the continuation of this story. Love them being back together.
So it seems there will be lots if twists & turns to this part of the story.
Hope this memory of Laura doesn’t interfere with the Tibette relationship this time around.
I have viewed many shows on this subject of the missing art & where many of the pieces still might be that haven’t been recovered yet. Very interesting.
So glad to see James back & in partnership again with Bette. They were a very good team.
Hope Bette & Tina keep the lines of communication open & avoid some of the earlier pitfalls of their relationship.
Looking forward to how this will all unfold.
Thanks so much!!!
Hey, you’re back … excellent !
Interesting story, can’t wait to know more.
This is a very interesting story plot line….. a missing painting from the Nazi era…. the convergence of the subject matter being so coincidently landing at Bette doorstep at the same time….
I’m afraid that I will have go back and reread the prior story as I simply do not remember what time frame this story is taking place nor what Bette and Tina’s relationship is with each other than they are together and that they seem to be infatuated with each other.
A mature stable couple would never have a problem with a lover prior to their relationship which occurred 20 to 25 years ago particularly when the other party is dead. So unlike other commenters, I could see no more problems with this Laura character for Tina anymore than I could see Eric being a problem for Bette. They are a part of their history which is long past….
I see that this is a golden opportunity for Bette and Tina to work as a team on a project which they both have a mutual interest in – Bette in the art world and its preservation and Tina in the movie script for potential production.
Thank you for this beginning….
Hey welcome back,
Interesting start and i am hooked.
Like Tina, what a coincidental for all that to happen now and Tina got a script exactly a year before?
I love to read about the WWII and especially about the Nazi’s.
Delighted to see a new story from you.
I have reread the whole story of Love Loss and Living and completely enjoyed it, thank you. Now I am really keyed up for this new adventure and trust my favourite couple will be taking the journey together.
Looking forward to more posts.
Super K
I am really happy to see this chapter for several reasons. First, I love that you are back and more wonderful than ever and secondly this is such an intriguing plot that I can’t wait to see where you take it. I agree with Martha that there should not be any concern from a relationship that happened so long ago but I am sure there are twists and turns to come as you research and write more. For now, I will bask in the knowledge that there is more to come and enjoy the ride you are taking us on. Peace my friend and for the sake of our escapism please write more!
