Helena was crying Bette knew she was right, if you love a woman if you have sex with a woman… sorry, I know what that means, more or less. Ive always feared that Tina would ever think about dating or having sex with men. When she and,… when you both get involved and then Tina came back home with me I though that there was something possitive in your relation, I though that once Tina had been with another woman she would sure about her feelings for me,… but you see where is she now… Helena moved her head up and down Hellry the interesting part of all that was that it was not interested only where Tina where but it was more interesting why Bette and Helena were sharing confidences.

            During the last months Bette had learnt that Helena was a lovely human being, even much more interesting that her mother was. Bette had accepted that Helena was not responsible of her divorced, and after a few chats, they have discovered how many things both have in common, even when Helena had their kids at home and Bette had Angelica they have going out, the three kids were great togehter. Bette though that was great for Angelica being close to Helenas children, both kids loved her and play with the little girl like a small toy.

            Helena, dont telle Alice, but I agree with her, you should have told us about everything then, not now. I mean its good you are doing it now, but we would have help you. Helenas face show all the sadness her heart had, first Bette, right then we were worried and broken hearted because of Dana, Dylans action werent important, second, I was not sure about what kind of friendship I have with all of you, and I was so embarrased, so ashamed that I only wanted to keep it in the dark. Bette was surprised of the revelations embarrased, ashamed?of what? You just loved her, she was the one who betrayed you not you. Helena knew Bette was right but her heart couldnt accept it, she felt like she was the one who had failed Dylan.

            Changing the subject for something more relaxing, How are your kids Helena? Bette remembered how long took to her talk to her friends about her divorce, and it was not the time to press Helena to continue talking about something that still hurt her. Great! Winnie is a good mother, I talked with them today, both are doing great… as day and night the boy wanting to learn to play the piano and the girl trying to get Winnie to let her go to some class of martial art… do you find it interesting? My boy playing piano and my little girl kicking other children… Winnie told me my mom freaked out when the kids told her… Id wish Id been there to see my mom freaking out! Hows Angelica? Bette smiled times are changing… great… she is not asking me about pianos or classes to learn to kick her friends… but step by step, time to time…

            The continued talking about being a mom, their children,… Bette understood perfectly well how Helena felt. Bette had been there and what made everything easier to understand the situation was that she had played both roles, Dylans and Helenas.

            Im sorry Bette. Suddenly said Helena to an atonished Bette. Im sorry for all the past we have in common Bette. I mean, Tinas, bringing Leo to the CAC, getting you fired after Melvins death. Im really sorry. Bette was surprised about Helenas remorses. Its ok, just… one question, did you knew Tina was my life partner when you get involved with her? Helena looked at her friends eyes and said No, not exactly. When I discovered she was your partner we had been playing some kind of seduction game, she told me she was divorcing, and I was trying to seduce her, then discovering who was her partner made me wanting her much more, but technically when we starting playing I didnt knew. Im sorry.

            Bette had been stading up walking, waiting for the answer, and she believed her. Its ok, though I would never said this again in front of anyone you did me a big favor. If I still worked for the CAC I would have neve found the job as Dean which means more money less work and more free time to spend with my baby. We should go over our pasts, about Tina, and about Dylan.

            They finished their fourth beer, by then both were tired and a little drunk and it was time to come back home for Bette. I should call a cab, its late. Helena took a lokk to her clock,… Jesus, why dont you stay here? Better than call a cab… if you want I mean, I… Bette smiled, she couldnt understand how a woman like that was a rock doing business. Ok. Thanks Helena.
