Reprisal Reprised- Chapter 2
“This is not a sitcom you know” laughed Bette. “You can’t just say something under your breath and have the entire audience hear it but not me.”
“It was done for effect and as if you ever watched sitcoms” laughed Shelly. “What was it in your day? The Ed Sullivan Show?”
“And along with age comes maturity and restraint. I absolutely refuse to jump at that bait and yet to get you to respond to a taunt, all I have to do is show you the bait, I don’t even have to put it on the hook or place it in the water.”
“And as much fun as this is, I actually have a date tonight to get to” Shelly laughed.
“Oh? Do tell” said Bette as she took a sip from her wine glass.
“Steve, you didn’t like him.”
“Really? Why?”
“Why am I going out with him or why didn’t you like him?”
“Well, both I guess.”
“You thought he was pompous and arrogant” she reminded Bette.
“Oh right” said Bette remembering the guy. “This is ‘Investment Banker How Hot Am I?’ Steve, right?” chuckled Bette.
“Versus what other Steves?” asked Shelly.
“Right, now I remember and you’re correct, I didn’t like him.”
“I know I’m right.”
“So, what’s the reason for date number two?”
“He’s a good kisser” she replied cheekily.
“You’re kidding, right?” asked Bette.
“About that being the reason that I’m going out with him for a second time? Yes, but about him being a good kisser, no” she smiled.
“Hmmm” was all Bette said.
“So mom, if it’s ok with you, I’m gonna head on.”
“As you wish” said Bette as she rested her head against the chair again.
As she reached the door to Bette’s office, Shelly turned and said, “You’re leaving soon?”
“Probably” Bette answered non-committedly.
“Where’s Lee?” asked Shelly.
“Dunno. Workin’ I’d imagine.”
“Why don’t you give her a call?” prompted Shelly.
“I thought you had a date with hot Steve” said Bette, eyebrow raised in emphasis.

I feel excited to have this story beginning to unfold in your very capable hands.
FABULOUS, can’t wait to get the jif on everything post soon..THANKS…
SKIPPY YOU ROCK!!!
I can see this a being a continuation of great storytelling!!! Whatever Tina may have in mind it’s got to be good, how else will Bette even entertain the idea of them together again…how will she ever be able to trust Tina not to turn and run when it gets tough…Looks like the tables will be a bit turned…Hmmmm
Pls don’t make us wait too long for the next installment….PLLLSSSEEE
walked into Bette’s office and placed a glass of wine next to her elevated feet……..My next job had better include an assistant who brings me wine!!
Anyway, I agree with BTF….OK for Bette means she is doing horribly; but trying to maintain. Even Tina should know that.
Love that Shane is there for T. Come to think of it, Shane has always been there.
Skip, I’ll be with you to the finale….I cant wait til they come face 2 face………QQg 4wrd 2 the next 1

I am realy liking the new take on this one and I hope they get back together faster even though they have alot to talke about befor anything happens. Can’t wait to see where you take them.
“How is She”, who, Bette. Kinda hard to get out. Shane saying Bette is doing OK, means our Bette is not good, not good at all. Looking forward to see where you take us, and for our girls to see each other.
Tina, and LA, and Bette, Oh My!
Somebody pass the popcorn, my eyes are glued to the screen.

Skip, I can feel the inner turmoil that Tina is going through. I like that she had Shane pick her up to get a gauge on her friends and Bette. I’m looking forward to their conversation.
I am loving this story. Please post soon. The 2 paths which B&T took after the breakup are quite interesting, I look forward to what you’ve got in store for us.
