Summer Vacation. Chapter 37
“*The* Joyce Wishnia?”
Bette nodded, “Uh huh … you’ve heard of her?”
Roger fell over his words, “Of course I’ve heard of her … I mean … everyone’s heard of her, she’s …” his words tailed off, leaving Bette to smirk at the sheer power of the ‘Wishnia’ name,
“I hear what you’re saying,” Bette admitted after a brief pause, “I’ll pay more attention to what we’re dealing with, so perhaps you could send me some more information for Joyce to have a look at?”
“Fine …” Roger agreed, seeing that it made sense for Joyce, who was there, to be the one to guide them through it. Whilst the technical ‘home’ of the Board Members remained in Virginia, the Trustee’s themselves all lived mostly elsewhere, in Texas, Arizona, California and New York, “I’ll fax something over,” he added reluctantly, just give me her number,
As she relayed the number, Bette thought about Helena’s request, “Roger?”
“Yes …”
“I was just wondering, well, you know it’s Lottie’s birthday this week …” she added, hoping that knowing this fact would win her favour, “We’re throwing her a party and some friends were hoping to get their hands on some old photographs of her as a kind of ‘joke’ present …?”
“Uh huh …”
“And …” said Bette, realising she’d have to spell it out if she was to get what they wanted, “I was wondering if you had any?”
“You couldn’t ask Lottie herself?” Roger asked,
“Well it’s sort of meant to be a surprise …”
“Or Jeff?” he added, amused by his own question,
“Er … no!” Bette paused, “So?”
He seemed reluctant, but in the spirit of her taking his advice decided that for Charlotte, he could learn to be nice, “Fine … I’ll see what I can come up with, you know you could just look in that file she put together for you …” he added, seeming of the opinion that Bette was incapable of doing her homework,
Bette thought for a moment and remembered, it was true, the big folder Lottie gave her containing information on the trust held other things as well, things that in the spirit of getting to know one another and the person her sister was currently, in LA and living her life Bette had forgotten about completely, preferring to know the reality, not the past,

i agree with honda90, thank you for this story and the nice long updates. It is one of my all time favorites because you really seem to understand the characters and speak in their voice incredibly well. I can’t wait to see where you go with this story! Thanks again for the great update and please post soon! :)
This story is one of my absolute favourite and I am so glad dat u’ve been posting regularly, many thanks. Can’t wait for the party PPS
I love this Sofa! The pace is perfect as you develop the characters and storyline. Alice is a trip, but I love this Lottie character! LMAO I think that Alice may have a match there. Can’t wait to see where you take this next. Post as soon as you can! Thanks Sofa :-))
How cute are Lottie and Jo? And how “cute” are Bette and Tina for that matter? Hickeys, at that hour of the morning, tut-tut. I like that Bette was willing to swallow pride and ask for photos for Al’s b-day surprise for Lottie… Speaking of, is the tape of Hels *that* bad? Unless she was wearing dodgy clothes (impossible, I’d imagine, for a Peabody) and singing karaoke off-key, I can’t think as to what the big deal is. She’s not the person she was then, and everyone knows it, so hopefully it’s not a problem. Anyway, why is Alice so set on showing it? Hmm, curiouser and curiouser. Great chapter, sofa. Cheers for the post!
Thanks for satiating me Sofa! Can’t wait to see what the deal is with the tape and what else Alice has planned at the party. Love this story!
B&T are hot and sweet, Lottie and Jo are cute, Helena and Alice are funny and cute. Please post more, thanks!
How will Bette handle Lottie having the money to finance their project? I hope that this project will bring them together. I love all the flirtation and can’t wait to read more!
no *you’re* the best girlfriend ever…hehe…ok, well now that i’ve let my secret out–that i am always tempted to gush a great deal more than i ever actually do–i’ll just say what i think. definitions aside, this story always feels epic…its got everything, birth, death, and the meanings of the daily things in between…and the sex is hot, because it lives in the tapestry you create with your writing…as always, baby, your writing is downright poetic. but nothing i can say here can really describe how i feel reading your stories…really…truely…i’ll stop now;) your writings are as beautiful as you are…xoxox
I can’t ever seem to get enough of this story…at least your generous enough to give large portions!!! Pls post soon…
The story gets better and better! Can’t wait for the Paris trip, that should be a lot of fun!
Wow, that Alice sure can make a production out of things, I hope she’s scheduled a bit of free time for socializing during the party. Too bad Jo and Lottie didn’t enlist her to help with the play, they would have had more free time and Alice could have worked off some of her excess energy. At while Peggy’s in town. Otherwise Helena might get ‘pressed’ into service. May I recommend the girls check out the Rue de Dragon? It’s been a while but there used to be some charming and unpretentious restaurants there. And the Marais is a good stroll away from the bulk of the tourists. And may I further that you make good use of the fact that you’ve got, however briefly, Bette and Tina, as well as Alice and Helena, in empty houses?
I agree with all of the above… can’t help but love Lottie, so unspoiled by all of her wealth… hope this party finally convinces her that she is truly loved.. and that she belongs … that’s what we all want really, to be loved and to belong to someone…….. love it as always…. thanks sofa!
Wow, love the Bette and Tina time together and how embarrassed Lottie was about the kiss. Can’t wait for more of this very intriquing story.
