Summer Vacation. Chapter 7
“Sure,” said Kit, passing her the sandwich and a plate, “so what were they arguing about?” she asked casually, trying to have it not sound like prying.
Lottie shrugged, she supposed it was okay for Kit to ask that, she was Bette’s sister after all …
But just her half-sister right? Or was she. Bette’s father was African-American but her mother was white. Kit’s mother couldn’t be white, she was sure of that … besides, there’d been no mention of Kit.
“Girl you in there?” asked Kit, waving one hand across Lottie’s face to break her stare.
“Sorry Kit,” she said, laughing, “I don’t know what they were arguing about … but I’m sure it was nothing,” she added, seeing an unfamiliar look of concern cross Kit’s face.
“I wouldn’t worry about it” said Alice the next day at The Planet, picking her way through Lisa’s lunch as she, Kit and Lottie watched Tina walk away to the bathroom, grateful to be free of her oppressive black mood, if only for a few moments.
“I mean …” continued Alice, “if you listen to Porter Junior then ‘this’ is the mommies turning point, right?”
Lisa passed the remainder of her lunch across to Alice, stealing her unused napkin to wipe her hands, “Babe …” she asked, “what the fuck are you on about?”
“You know right?” said Alice, in Kit and Lottie’s general direction, it wasn’t really a question … she lifted up her hands to count the points off on her fingers,
“First there was the pining, then an expensive present … and now we have the customary row which is needed for them to have a make-up conversation, right?”
Kit and Lottie laughed, Angelica had been right on the money.
“Ssh Shush …” said Lottie hurriedly, catching Tina’s eye as she left the bathroom, she paused adding “don’t wind her up Alice … I have to work with her for the rest of the afternoon.”
Whatever was still to come in the traditional world of ‘Bette and Tina’ Lottie thought it couldn’t come soon enough. This Tina, the one who sulked and refused to crack a smile, who was seemingly anywhere but on the other side of the conversation, unnerved her. The happy loved-up version was nauseating and sparked jealousy in all around but was altogether the preferred option.

Yeh great story I also think that she is Bette’s half sister
Whoa…u wrote so well…but I don’t get the telephone fight, meaning I saw NO REASON for either to get mad BUT as it lead to a make-up phone convo okay!!!! Loving the suspense but not forever, huh???? Are u gonna leave it for Bette to get home and see Lotte for the big reveal…hope Bette comes home early to surprise Tina, of course!!!!
oh yeah, I’d prefer for her to be Bette’s half-sister; same mom, different dad’s…
You’re wonderful – posting all those chapters in a row!! Thank You. Love it ! Love it ! Love it ! But what the heck is “stropping”? Or am I just so far removed? Please continue. _Soon_
Is it Monday yet? I can’t wait for Bette and Tina to get together for family time without kids. Also I wonder if Bette will see something in Lottie that will get her mind to wondering.
Sofasitter you have spun a web that is very mysterious. So Bette isn’t Lottie’s mother unless Lottie lied to Tina about her mother dying when she was 7…shoot she is lying about her reason for being in LA so why wouldn’t she lie about that? If Tina and Bette would have been talking about anything else they would have had an argument also because Angelica said that’s what they do…it’s part of the process. I hope Bette comes home early…in time for the BBQ. I love this story and I hope you post again soon and end all of our guessing.
Good chapter!
God, I love this B&T! I think you’re giving us an awesome relationship here!… Okay, I know monday is not too far away, but I can’t help but hope for a suprise early return… A girl can dream, right? Thanks!
story is great!please,please,Bette needs come back soon and Lottie tell her secret!! I like big chapters.
You are really making me more crazy than I already am because of trying to figure out about Lottie. Hope you let us know about that mystery soon. I know when you read these comments you are probably laughing, because as you can see I am not the only one going crazy here. LOL Thanks and please don’t keep is on the edge of our seats too much longer.
So is this Bette’s sister and its Bette’s mom that died recently? Answers, I want answers!!!!!
Who the hell is she and what is she to Bette?
I’m betting she’s Bette’s half-sister…Because of the “white mother” comment and “no mention of Kit”…But we’ll see…
Yeah, I’d get touchy if Bette was away and I were Tina. But glad they had such a nice make-up conversation. :) Lottie’s getting cozy with the teacher!!
