Bette- that’s good Kit, that you’re giving sobriety a chance, I’m happy for you. Does daddy know you’re sober?

     Kit- no, I tried to call, actually before coming to LA but the number I have for him says it’s been disconnected so maybe you can give it to me later.

     Bette- you must have the old number, he moved from the house to an apartment. The house was so big for him alone that he sold it and bought an apartment big enough for him. Before you leave, remind me to give it to you.

The sisters continued talking and before they even realized it, it was closing time for Bette. Seeing as none of them had eaten lunch Kit invited Bette to an early dinner:

     Kit- So baby sis how about I bay you dinner and you tell me how the gallery is doing. I mean for what I can see it must be doing pretty good.

     Bette- I would love to have dinner with you Kit but I already have plans. (Bette couldn’t hide the Porter smile that adorned her face and Kit saw it)

     Kit- so who’s the lucky lady that’s making you smile a 1000 watts smile? Spill…

     Bette- I don’t know what you’re talking about Kit.

     Kit- Yeah, Bette if that smile gets any wider you’re going to need another face. Come on who is the lucky lady?

     Bette- ok, ok you twisted my arm, I’ll tell you. Her name is Tina, Tina Kennard, she works in the movie business and she’s beautiful.

     Kit- Go on, I’m listening!

     Bette- well I met her at one of my exhibits, she came with a client, actually she was HIS girlfriend at the moment.

     Kit- Oh My God, you are dating a straight woman?

     Bette- Well at first I didn’t know what to think, I mean as soon as I met her I felt something weird but I tried to forget about it. A couple of days later I received a call from Eric asking if the cleaning crew from the exhibition had found an earring when they were cleaning up and they had so he told me it was his girlfriend’s earring and that he was going to call her a tell her to come get it and she did.
