Soul Mates – Chapter 8
"The same place that inspired the idea . . Alabama. Your hometown to be exact"
Tina’s jaw dropped and she froze in place, the shock on her face was both frightening and amusing. Well, frightening for Sam and amusing for Alice. Seeing the odd look on her boss’s face, Sam winced a bit and tried to better the situation afraid that Tina was going to have a panic attack or something.
"That’s why I said it could either be bad or good news . . but it was just an idea, Tina. I can always call them and convince them to keep the location we have here. I said I would call back when I spoke to you anyway"
Tina finally remembered to breathe as she sat back in her chair, waving a hand in the air before placing it on her suddenly heavy forehead, "No, no its fine. I just . ."
She couldn’t even finish her sentence, she was so overwhelmed. Just what were the odds of the ever non-negotiable hard ass Phyllis Kroll wanting a location change so close a fashion show opening and to her hometown no less? Could fate be playing a hand in her favor?
"You better not be thinking of turning down the relocation. Just think of the possibilities"
If Tina didn’t suddenly feel so dizzy, she would have smiled. Of course Alice would be on board with everything. Tina lifted her head and looked to her expectant friend and her nervous assistant, when her lips curled into a smile, both women shared the same expression of excitement.
"Tell Phyllis that relocatin’ is gonna be tricky but I’m all for it. Lets do it"
*****
Bette was sitting on the edge of her couch, her legs slightly spread and her forearms resting on either thigh. Her head was tilted down and her eyes were shut tight as she heard the faint sound of a sigh through the speaker of her answering machine before the line was disconnected. Kit was sitting beside the brunette with her arms crossed over her chest.
"So what was that then?"
Bette pursed her lips, knowing she was going to hear her sister’s mouth but was still irritated by it.

Loved this update and this story. Excellent. Go get her Bette. Thank you.
Thanks God for Kit !Great update,amazing story.PPS
bette is so thick in the head in this one. wake up and start treating tina right. Helena is so sweet. if Bette doesn’t want to fight for Tina, please set her free and let Helena win her over again.
helena is sweet, decent, and beautiful. so if Bette wants to push Tina away…i won’t blame Tina for feeling something for Helena after being jilted. Bette wake up. Go get Tina or else someone else will!
Yep, Bette would probably appreciate hearing that she was always the first choice. But she’ll have to get her head out of her pittuty to hear it. :-) Thank heaven for the superior mule-handling skills of Alice and Kit. Now when are we gonna learn what Bette’s been up to in her world-conquering activities? Maybe at the big show? (Doncha hate it when readers try to guess what’s coming? OK, I’ll stop doing that.)
They both gotta fight for each other!
This Bette really is a stubborn dumbass. :-) I love this chapter.
I love the phrase that it takes a village to raise a child. I sometimes think that it takes an extended family to get two people together who fate has guided to be in the same space so that they can chose their destiny to be together. Besides anything worth having is worth fighting for. Me thinks that the two lovers are ready to fight for each other!
You better get on it Bette! Liah you are doing a kick ass job with this story. Thanks Doll!!!!
Someone has to make the first big overture or grand gesture… may as well be Bette since she seems to have been laboring under a lot of assumptions. Tina spilled her guts to everyone but Bette it seems (maybe she would have if Bette would have picked up the phone or seen her, though). Maybe once she gets to Alabama Bette will sweep her off her feet (in more ways than one)? A girl can hope ;) Thanks for the post! :)
Great update. Bette, swallow your pride and call Tina now, you just might be happy that you did. Thanks.
I’ve read the chapter a few times more and I think if Tina calls again she should tell Bette that she loves her and only her and wants to make their marriage work and that the divorce has been called off. I think Btte needs to hear that. Can’t wait to see what Bette thinks of the fashion show being in town. This is a great story.
wonderfull update thanks!!
last line said it all. yeah.. thanks KIT… love this… and i have to give alice credit too… great job… pss
