Side Effects Chapter 8 – THERE ARE ALWAYS HOPES

Maura: “is there something wrong, Tina?”
Tina kept thinking not releasing a word.
Maura: “Tina…, Tina answer me”
Tina: “huh…, what…?”
Maura: “what’s wrong, Tina?”
Tina: “I was counting on visit Imhotep to obtain more information from the computer, and if we leave and stay out for a while, how are we going to know their plans?”
Maura: “good question…”
Tina: “I have to go there and try to establish a remote desktop connection…”
James: “do you know how to do it?”
Tina remembered when, years ago, Bette taught her how to do it, unwittingly she looked at Bette.
Tina: “yes…, I have done that a couple of times”
James: “if they suspect you know something, it’ll be dangerous”
Tina: “I have to take the risk”
The four scientists looked at each other… until Bette spoke.
Bette: “remote desktop connections only work when the computer is on, what if they turn it off, your system may have a firewall or some other mechanism to prevent the remote connection, or perhaps to detect it…, do you know how to set the system to avoid those obstacles?”
Tina: (sighing) “…hmm…, no, I don’t”
Maura: “Bette…, but you know how to do it, right?”
Bette: “yes…, I can go with you, Tina”
Tina: “no…, just tell me what to do and I’ll do it”
Maura: “what’s the problem, Tina?”
Tina: “Bette can just tell me what to do, it’ll be suspicious if she comes with me there…”
Bette: “did you never invite anyone to go with you to Imhotep…? Hard to believe… and I’m here if you want to tell me something, I don’t need emissaries”
Tina: “… sorry… hmm, okay…, we can go together, but we have to be careful…”
Tina and Bette walked to the other side of the research complex toward Imhotep. Initially, both women paced in silence, but at halfway from their destiny, Tina stopped.
Tina: “we’ll use the back door…, I can see Henry’s car in the parking…”
Bette: “are you afraid?”
Tina: “yes…, I don’t want them to see you…, they could harm you”
Bette: “thanks for your concern, but I can take care of myself…, besides, I thought you felt something for him…”
Tina: “please Bette…, don’t be an ass; in those days, I thought I was protecting you…, I’m sorry, and I already told you I felt nothing for him… I don’t like men…, he was an excuse to push you away…, but you know that…, I never dated him…, and that was very long ago”

Wow, I’m the first. Thank you for bringing back the amazing story, finally something good between Bette and Tina, please make their wedding come true with peace and unharmed, hope that Imhotep will fall very soon! Hope you can keep going! Can’t wait for next chapter.
Hi Laurel:
Sorry for my late response, and thanks for your nice comment.
Yes, the wedding will come in a couple of chapters, but about the peace and unharming is another story; strong couples, deep loves are always tested; but remember, there are always hopes and that gives us the strength to keep going on and succeed.
Now, today I can tell you I’ll post soon.
Thank you so much for reading and commenting.

I can’t believe it, i am not the first one to comment ????????
So glad that you found the time to update. And finally some good news for our girls. Laurel J.H. already mentioned it, let their marriage come with peace.
There must be a way to stop that creep Don Kennard and his helpers. I hope they get what they deserve when they are able to catch them. But please don’t let get Tina and Bette hurt.
Great update, thank you proteonomics!
Hi Bibi:
Thank you, my friend, for your comment.
As I said, the wedding will come, but with many things along; you know I wanted to post three days ago, but I wasn’t ready, as I explained to you; but I’m in the verge of finishing it.
The next chapters will clarify things about our couple and the others, the entanglements will be deconvoluted, so just remember there are always hopes.
Thank you again Bibi, I’ll post soon.

Thanks for the update.

Hi SG:
Thanks for your patience, and comment.
I’ll post really soon (from this day on). Our girls have a lot to do now that they have opened their hearts to each other; at this point, I’ll say there are always hopes.
Thanks again for giving a chance to this story.
