Say Nothing Chapter 23
“I want to thank you all again for joining us this evening. It is certainly our privilege to share with you this extraordinary event.”
James helped both women from the platform and he and Giselle flanked Tina as she was nearly devoured by the gallery guests. It was almost rock star status and Bette thought to herself that this was everything that she had hoped it would be and more. As Tina greeted guests with the help of James and Giselle, she occasionally would catch Bette’s eye and smile. Bette would walk a special guest up to Tina for a personal introduction as Tina’s protectors stood nearby. James knew nearly everyone in the room and he was to be of service to Tina in that capacity. The two hours before dinner was to be served to the most honored guests, went smoothly and as the time drew near, James again stood on the platform to speak. “On behalf of Bette Porter, Tina Kennard and The Porter Gallery, we would like to thank you all for sharing this evening with us. We will be closing the gallery in 20 minutes but we hope that this is just the first of many visits you will make to the gallery to share in the outstanding work of Tina Kennard.” Applause again ensued.
This was the queue for the dinner guests to make their way to the stairs for the ascent to the loft for dinner. It was also the queue for the media to gather in a smaller room off of the main gallery for a brief question/answer period with Tina. The other guests filed out and this well orchestrated evening was moving along as designed.
As was expected, the work entitled Say Nothing was the piece that garnered the most questions. The question every single reporter wanted to know was who inspired it. Tina spoke of it’s importance to her and her body of work. She explained that during it’s creation, it was such an inspirational time and she was driven to create it. She eloquently side stepped the answer but no one realized it. Tina held them captivated as she spoke about it. As she finished, Bette stepped in and waved off any more question and thanked them all for their interest in telling this story. With that James walked the last of the guests out that would not be enjoying this late dinner with them.

YES YES YES! More soon.. quick. Loving it. Bette should totally respond with: “Tina, about your remark earlier. i don’t think I’m falling in love with you, i already have..” dun dun dun… fun stuff.. pps
WOW… Thats Great… I love this story… Helena looking Tina means that here comes the dram right… post Soon
love this story thank you for the update. My favorite couple would take the art world into their hands: the best gallery and gallery’s owner and the bet artist in the world. PPS
Wow, that turned out better than I expected. I can’t wait to read more. PPS.
Helena needs to keep her wandering eye to herself, Tina is taken by the beautiful Bette Porter. Can’t wait for the next update. Great Story.
Here comes the drama. Helena can look but will be up to Tina is she can touch. It Tina doesnt want, them Helena will really be in trouble as Bette will be a force,that she hasnt incourter before. thanks
so first yes I like to see what Bette is feeling..I love the glances that they were giving each other all night…now to Helena I don’t know what up with the look but i am guessing that Tina only has eyes, heart, body, soul, etc for Bette not to mention I thought that the group of friends realize that they were “together”…PPS
Great chapter, loved it. So happy that the opening turned out the way Bette wanted. Lovely chapter. PPS
Someone, please tell Helena to keep her mitts off Tina or Bette will knock her block off.
helena can look… but i think she KNOWS she better not touch… another great chapter…PPS
I really really really need more of this story!! LOL seriously post soon :)
Great story. Can’t wait for more. Helena!!! Hands off!!!!
Your story makes me wish I could “see” Tina’s art. You describe it as amazing and powerful but I’m afraid my imagination is just not good enough to get me there.
love it, love it, love it! i like the way bette reassured tina that she hasn’t forgotten. now i can’t wait for bette’s declaration :)
Ummm, it seems that Helena would like to vie for Tina’s attention. Thankfully, Bette did mention that the love that Tina had shared was in the back her mind and that it would be addressed at a later time.
Jinjur wow, what a vibrint chapter, so very clear in the minds eye, & Heart too. Helena, we don’t even need to talk about that, Right?, so as I was saying, maybe next chapter we will see them celebrating their success???? Maybe, please??? Thank you, Md
Bette needs to put the “smack down” on Helena right now! Oops,did I say that in my “out loud” voice? My bad! There is no way that Tina’s going to fall for it. Not gonna happen…better not happen…jinjur? Please?
The whole event detail you gave us was just AWSOME! We could visualize all the arrangements that Bette and James have made as to make Tina’s work shine and receive the proper recognition not only from the people in the Art world, but also from the media. Excellent chappy, Jinjur. We loved it. PPS Lu & Marsh (Proud Salsa Aunties to the ever loving JC and Eunichick)
love it.
Great love stories are hard to find! You give us hope! As well as artistic and musical inspiration. Thank you!
That was a great chapter. I’m glad it turned out well. I keep waiting for the drama but I am very pleased there hasn’t been much. pps

Amazing!!!! I hope Bette tells Tina that she is head over heels in love with her. Now Helena better just look and not try and touch or Bette will knock her on her pretty little ASS!!! Thank you PPS
That was wonderful!
