Of course I dont mind. I’m gonna call the kids, feel free to,… I almost said “eat” but… I dont think our stomachs will be able of eating… do whatever you want, ok?

            Helena left Bette smiling, she call a cab and make an appointment for 45 minutes later; she went to her room, she cleaned the room and get dressed, once she had done everything she went in a search for Helena to thank her for everything. Bette found Helena sitting in front of a computer chatting with her kids. She was confortable sitting in a big chair, with her just her pj, she was having a funny chat with her kids about a visit to the zoo, her son said something that made Helena laugh. Bette was atonished the woman looked great, she looked really,… she had no words to expressed it, Helena looked free, looked as a woman able to show how she really was. Bette knew the feeling, the feeling of being yourself in front just a small group of friends who really know you, who really care about you, the only place where you are in front of people without the mask that makes you the Dean, the curator of a big museum, the director of the Peabody fundation.

            After watching Helena interact with her kids during a few minutes Bette decided not to interrupt her and went to the kitchen where she found a paper to left her. She looked the white page and wrote a brief note “Thank you for everything” Bette was not able to write more because for the first time since she met Helena  as she was, not only as a loving friend and a devoted mother, but also as a woman who was really sexy, and she understood what Tina saw in Helena to have a relationship with her.

            Helena was so confortable talking to her kids that she forget about Bette. Once she finished the video conference she went to her kitchen thinking it was earlier and thinking about finding there Bette, but she was gone, she understood why she went she didn’t want to stole time from her kids what Helena thanked. In the way to get a new cup of coffe the door bell rang, looking the monitor she saw Alice, this time without any doubt Helena opened the door, she had such a headache that she had no strenght as to fight with Alice for a small amount of free time.
