When she tried to read her student she just felt more confused, like the story didn’t match what she saw. She was alone, yet she seemed to have a history, one that seemed like it might be significant but she ignored or played it down. She appeared uncomplicated, yet everything about her Tina found to be a puzzle, it frustrated her and made her feel uneasy and on guard. She riled at the way no one else seemed to notice and she knew that if Bette were there then Bette would most definitely notice. And it hadn’t passed her by that she was like Bette in more ways that one, her dark loose curls cascading down past her shoulder and that wide sparkling smile in stark contrast to the bluest eyes. She was thoughtful, reserved, and aged beyond her years. She spoke quietly and precisely with the air of someone educated well and her diligence and competence couldn’t be compared. She hadn’t known Bette when she was 19, but she’d listened to Bette describe herself at 19 and to Tina, watching Lottie was like watching a play, ‘The Bette Porter Play’. She fell asleep drawing together the idiotic comparisons and woke up eight hours later the exact same way.
“This is crazy,” she said, “stop it Tina, stop it.”
Lottie stared at the file in front of her and shook her head as the words on the page started to dance and swim before her eyes. She never wore her glasses, except in lectures but trying to make out the handwriting on the various court reports and doctors letters was making her lose focus. She shook her head again, wishing that Lisa wrote like Tina, legibly.
It was her third day, and so far it was turning out to be more interesting than she’d expected. Tina had her sit in with willing members from the one group she wanted her to take over, they all seemed keen too. She was intrigued, she’d watched her various stepmothers over the years pop pills and drink and go to see psychiatrists and wondered about the ins and outs of it all. Tina seemed to like to keep things simple, she made a lot of things sound straightforward, a lot of the time it appeared to Lottie that she was master of taking her own advice.

I know Lottie’s got something to do with Bette. Now she can’t be Bette’s daughter cos we all know our Ms. Porter was never into guys. But she could be a sister Bette dosen’t know about. Guess I’ll just have to wait for more.
How about daughter of an ex?
I still have a feeling that Lottie will turn out to be Bette’s long lost daughter she had no idea she gave birth to. Lottie is bi-racial too right? I mean the way Tina describes her it would seem like Lottie is a clone of Bette or something. This is gonna kill me until you tell us who the hellafitzgerald this Lottie is. Please post soon
LMAO@akshay! hellafitzgerald! I’ll have to remember that one. I’d be afraid to be a psycologist. I’d probably uncover things about myself I had blocked out and then run screaming into the night because of it.
who could it be????? love this story cant wait till bette gets back into town..or will someone do a surprised visit??.p.p.s.
Hey there… i read your first 2 chapters last night at work… (i can’t comment from work) and i have to say i love this story… at first i thought lottie could be bette’s daughter… but then you said melvin was her father… so i am assuming she is not bi-racial… because angie would of pickup on that right away… so i do believe she is a 1/2 sister to bette and kit… i was also wondering if tina picked up on any thing else… like why lottie did’t do a double take when she met kit… and no mention of tina’s HUSBAND… now we all know she knows who bette and tina are.. but tina doesn’t know she knows… i hope this makes sense… not much sleep today… but i did read what you said … we will know the whole story before long… ok… please continue real soon… later babe
it has to be bette’s daughter cause she said that tina was much different than her other stepmothers.
I just caught up with this story and I love it! Lottie is Bette’s daughter from when she was in college…Bette had a boyfriend in college and she got pregnant…the boy’s family is wealthy and Bette gave up her child, this is a part of her past that Tina or anyone one of her friends don’t know about…maybe Kit..but Kit was off on her own while Bette was younger so she may not know. When Bette gets home and sees Lottie she will know…the question is how will Tina react. I am so ready for another post…please make it happen.
You are weaving a drama that is like a puzzle. We cant figure it out yet. Love that Tina misses Bette so much. Get Helena back to LA ASAP. she needs her friends. I’m not guessing yet about LOTTIE. I dont like to be to far off base thanks
Wow, I just caught up and am really liking this story. I get the idea that Lottie is Bette’s sister by her mother. The same mother that ran out on Bette all those years ago. I love how you are writing Tina. She knows that she has made mistakes but is working hard to be the wife and mother that she expected herself to be.
wait a minute Bette did do guys…even said how disgusting it was that she swallowed that stuff…at least in the L WORD she said that…so maybe this is her baby and the reason she so desperately wanted a child with Tina???? hell, i dunno u’ve got me guessing…blue eyes so must be white father???? post soon pleasz
This is good and love it!
It’s fun to guess what’s gonna happen…I am probably so off base with my guess that I am not even in the ballpark…lol. I just know I need you to post REALLY soon…this is a good one kid….
great chapter and love the mystery behind Lottie.PPS
