Tina placed her food carefully down and pulled out the water Kit had sent, “A number of things, I needed a change in my life, I was having problems,” she admitted, with a pause “might not be the best reason for a career change but I did it and I haven’t looked back.”
“What kind of problems?” asked Lottie, boldly. Something about her sensed that Tina would share and sensed also that there was history involving Bette in the story.
Tina exhaled deeply, “Before Angelica was born Bette and I lost a child, a boy. I miscarried early on but we had been trying so hard and our life was in a fragile kind of state, it tore us apart, and it was a long time before that healed.” She turned to look across at her. “I would have been well advised to follow the advice of Carl Jung back then,” she said, smiling, “perhaps then I would have looked around to see that there were other people in my life just as sad, and hurt and lonely as me.”
Lottie shifted uncomfortably at this honest disclosure.
“Not long after that I got pregnant with Angelica and happily pushed all the badness aside to concentrate on her, but your mind and your emotions never seem to abide my those kind of rules and before I knew it she’d arrived and I was suffering from terrible post-natal depression, blaming just about everyone in my life for anything I could except me.”
“I’m sorry.” Lottie added, gently. Feeling bad for Tina that giving birth to Angelica had been such a stressful experience, then she stopped and stared as a furrow of lines crossed her brow, “wait, you gave birth to Angelica?”
“Yes,” Tina answered, “why?”
“Nothing, it’s just I assumed, what with Angelica being bi-racial that …” she tailed off, unsure of how to finish what she’d inadvertently started.
“That Bette must be the one who gave birth to her?” Tina finished.
“Yes.”
“Nope,” she said, shaking her head. “Lots of people think that, well not so much now, she’s old enough she’ll tell you straight if she’s asked, but when she was a baby and if it was just her and I they’d ask if I adopted her.”

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
