Tina smiled, “Enchiladas, they’re nowhere near ready though, and … Joyce is still here …” she let on finally,
Suddenly Lottie seemed to note Bette’s absence, “Oh,” she cast a glance in the direction of the lounge, “are they in there?”
Tina nodded,
“I should go and say hi?” Lottie said, to herself mostly, “Bette said she’s hiring her to work for us …”
Tina and Jo both shrugged simultaneously, as Tina found herself feeling suddenly sorry for them both, the best time for a first encounter with Joyce most definitely wasn’t at the end of a very long day,
Lottie sighed, hugging her coffee cup like a security blanket, it wasn’t as if there was anywhere to go and hide, “I’ll go say hi …” she answered herself decisively, grabbing Jo’s hand as she passed her by, “come on …”
“I want to watch TV …” Angie whined, following them reluctantly,
They paused at the edge of the lounge, watching Bette and Joyce as they sat deep in heated conversation over something,
“You can’t possibly say that!” said Bette, her head bent over an open book, “Everyone knows the movement not only helped to increase awareness of feminism but to propel female artists out into the public arena!”
Joyce chuckled, noticing their onlookers before Bette did as she raised her head in thoughtful search of a wining argument for round two,
“Mom …” said Angie pitifully as she pushed her way through, “I’m tired … I wanna watch TV?”
“Not in here sweetie, we’re talking,” Bette appeased, “can’t you go and watch it upstairs?”
“Okay …”
The little girl walked away reluctantly, too tired to argue and Bette glanced them both over, “I can’t decide who looks worse, you guys or her?”
Jo laughed, “She leapt around more, so I’d say her,” she turned towards Joyce and smiled, “Hi …”
“Oh I’m sorry,” said Bette, remembering her introductions, “Joyce, this is my sister Lottie, and her …” she paused for the briefest second to consider her words before continuing with … “girlfriend, Jo, who also happens to be Angie’s teacher. Lottie, Jo, this is Joyce Wishnia, a very esteemed civil rights lawyer and also a good friend of ours,”

i have so been hanging out for this story but didn’t have the cheek to PM u seeing as i’m way behind…but u did it; i love it; pps.
and i’m actually 1st!!!!
I’ve missed this story, thanks for posting…not that I don’t like what you have given us…it’s just I really love this story.
Wow, you did an amazing job picking right back up with the intrique. I am excited that you have gone back to writing this story,
Not first!!! Look who’s being all prolific and stuff. Good to see this one back. As long as you’re taking requests, how about revisiting “London Town”? (That is what it’s called, isn’t it? It’s been so long.)
I am thrilled to see your story updated! I wish Bette and Lottie would just talk to each other. They are both so afraid of losing the other that they don’t really even get the chance to know each other.
Lottie doesn’t have to stay in France the whole month… she’s got like trillions in the bank, can’t she hire a jet and just go see Jo for 4 or 5 days then come back for a week a couple of times? Or, can’t she fly her new family over to France for a visit while she stays with Jo? I dunno, money=options, and she’s got loads. As for Bette and the old idiots on the board, I think she can easily win one of them over. Or, failing that, make them scared to vote against her! And Al + Hels, too cute! I’m glad to see this back, thanks for the post, sofa, cheers!
what a great story! i think tina being a therapist so fitting for her personality!
Good chapter. Drama coming !
Wow. The drama. Glad to see a B/T story back. Hope you end up updating that story where they are in London sometime if you get the chance.
Thanks for updating this story, I really like this one. This should be a pretty tough decision for Lottie, but Jo doesn’t seem to be having as hard a time as Lottie with it.
Hey Sofa! thanks a lot for this update. I’ve loved this story from the beginning and I think you’re doing a marvelous job with the intrigue. And i’ve already said it but i love Tina’s personnality and B&T’s dynamic here. But I admit that I also fell in love with London Town and would love to see it continue… *hint* *hint*…. Thanks!!!
hehe, ok, see? i’m like 25th down the list, not the first to comment this time. yay for dying batteries. lol. i must say…super cute baby, super cute…lottie and jo and their mini dramas are just adorable and touching and really great. bette and joyce drunk are great, but you paint joyce in this really layered way so that i’m giggling over bette’s ‘curled lip’ while thinking at that very same moment ‘poor joyce’ and worrying about her. i love it, love the directions this story goes, love how you write it, love the characters…i’ll stop gushing now. but i’m glad you had a chance to get to this one. perhaps you’ll do some writing on my little ‘prezzy’ today? *giggles* xo
OH and i love alice and helena…that was also totally adorable. peggy’s whole thing about hearing them. hehehe…more of those two! :) i’m such a demanding grlfriend;)
“tons of inappropriate questions” And we want to hear the answers to all of them… Go Joyce!… ;-)
Thanks for the update. Enjoyed having this story back and the B/T/H safari.
YAY!! I was so excited to read this, & I loved this installment…I wonder what Lottie’s going to do about Jo…? Joyce’s appearance was great, Alice & Helena are hilarious as always, and of course I always love B&T. Thanks, sofa!!
