Starting Over (12)
…………………….
Tina spent about an hour in her office, taking care of some things leftover from the previous week, and preparing for her work day. She finally realized she would have to enter the fray sooner or later.
She walked out into the common area and didn’t see James. ‘I really hope things have settled down, shit I hope James is alright.’ Tina approached Bette’s door slowly and carefully and tapped on the door. When she got no answer she pushed the door open so she could peek in. Inside she saw Bette walking back and forth in her office, saying quietly, “Calm down Porter, Just calm down and Think, Think, Think…”
With that, Tina pushed the door open further and quietly said from the door. “Bette…um, Bette, can I come in?”
Bette turned as if she were shocked to see Tina. She began to sputter, “Um Tina, I’m so sorry, I didn’t realize you were here, um.”
Tina walked toward Bette and stood before her and very gently spoke, “Its okay Bette, don’t worry. I came in a bit early to get a jump on the week, but what’s wrong, you look upset.”
Bette just let the calming words wash over her, she let out a sigh and let a small smile pass over her lips, she quietly spoke.
“Oh Tina, I hate that you saw me like this. I’m just upset about yet another crazy artist being completely unreasonable.”
“Bette, we all get upset. What kind of friend would I be if I didn’t understand that? Besides I would never judge you.”
“It’s just I’ve tried so hard to get this temper of mine under control and poor James looked like he’d been crying, it’s just not who I want to be. Ya know?”
Bette looked at Tina, still shaky but with eyes pleading for understanding. Tina reached her arm around Bette and pulled her close as she led her to the couch, she sat Bette down and sat next to her holding Bette’s hands, and then she spoke.
“Bette, we all lose it sometimes. You can’t be so hard on yourself. Nobody’s perfect, Not even you – okay?” she said as she looked at Bette waiting for a sign that Bette agreed. Bette nodded and Tina continued.
