Just when she was about to leave, Tina ran into Kit, who was entering the bar. «Hey baby girl?»
«Hi, Kit!»
«How are you?»

«I’m fine, yeah. Um… Listen, I really gotta go, sorry! See you tonight» with that, Tina left quickly.
Kit was atonished. As she got into the Planet she approached Alice and Shande. «What’s going on with Tina?»
«See? I was right!» Alice uttered. «We think something is bothering Tina but we don’t know what»
«Hm-Hmm, I think I know» Kit muttered.
«What? Do you know something?» Alice asked.
Kit jumped at Alice’s prominent question but avoided to reply. She knew that if she told something to Alice, the whole WeHo would’ve known everything. She couldn’t tell her that maybe something was happeing between Bette and Tina. So she just opted for a simple reply. «No, of course not. I’m in the office if you need me».

Tina headed to the parking lot and got into her car.
With her hands planted on the wheel she started to talk to herself.
«Fucking fuck, Tina! What were you thinking? This is a total utter fucking fucked up thing. She’s with Jodi for Christ sake. God, I can’t do this. We can’t do this. She can’t do this»
Her soliloquy was soon interrupted by a knock on the window.
Tina immediately turned to see who that was.
There she were: Bette.
She snorted, «Why are you talking to yourself?»
«Uh, hey… um, hi!» she was taken by surprise. «I was, um… I was reviewing a speech I have to do at a meeting at work, later this afternoon»
«Oh, sounds a good idea, I guess I’m going to try this for my future speeches» she showed up her 1000 watt smile. Tina’s heart almost melted at that wonderful sight. She resuscitates from the trance and thought it was better for her to go away. «And talking about work, I guess I’d better go»
«Uh, yeah. I’ll see you tonight? I know there will be one of those nights here at the Planet. Alice invited us»
‘Us’. Of course. Alice invited ‘us’. And she wasn’t talking about them. She was talking about Jodi and her.

«Yeah, I know. She invited me as well. Anyway, if I’m not too tired…»
«Okay, see you then» she smiled. «Bye, Tee»
«Bye!»
Tina started the car and shook her head, «Fuck».
