    Chapter 21: Suffering Mr. Sandman’s Whims

    Chapter 21

    Suffering Mr. Sandman’s Whims

    Four weeks later

    Tina hurriedly ran a soft brush through the gentle waves of her blonde hair, forcing wayward strands into compliance.  With persistence, newly tamed locks were pulled into a loose bun and secured tightly with a colorful clip at the base of her neck.  Exhausted from her grooming tasks, Tina leaned forward and rested her face against the clear antique-edged mirror; her eyelids soon succumbed to their desired position.  Fatigue flowed threw her; settling in the marrow of her bones. 

    After several minutes passed a resounding yawn burst forth from the blonde’s lips, momentarily startling Tina with its ferocity and forcing her to lean back from her drained replica; a few glass smudges denoted her prior resting point. 

    Critically eyeing her appearance in the mirror, she expressed a moment of gratitude for her tenure in the movie business.  It had taken all her acquired knowledge of makeup artistry techniques to cover the ever-intensifying cobalt circles under her vacant, hazel eyes. 

    She had slept through her alarm…again.  It was the third time in the past four days.  She sighed and half yawned once more, stretched her arms toward the ceiling before shaking her head briskly from side to side in an attempt to loosen the remaining cobwebs.  A part of Tina wanted to return immediately to the comfort of her queen sized, Egyptian cotton wrapped pillow-top mattress in order to regain a blissful state of nonexistence.  Stolen moments of mindlessness seemed to offer the only escape from the current harsh realities. 

    Her body craved the silence and solitude.  If she wasn’t at The Foundation working herself into oblivion, she was in bed…resting.  By all rights she couldn’t call it sleeping.  Most days she exited her bed more fatigued than when she entered it.  Tina hadn’t been able to hold a true conversation with Mr. Sandman in four weeks…not since that night… that dreadful night…that night that seemed like a hysterical illusion…the vilest of nightmares.  That night the line had been crossed… when lust, suspicion, anger, pain, and betrayal had overcome reason and most importantly love and compassion.  Sadly, there was no way to undo it…not now… 

    Each night since offered more of the same.  The emotional pain dwelling inside Tina declined to depart.  Even when she took the little white pills designed to engineer a synthetic sleep, her body tossed and turned, attempting to expunge the raw emotions and nonstop churning of her restless mind.  The tears were troublesome too.  Although they came less frequently, they often stubbornly refused to be dismissed until the breaking of dawn.

    2. Yeah! You’re back and BP IS the woman on the beach! I can’t wait for this story to unfold…hopefully, Bette will catch Tina… in more ways than one.

    5. i’ve been waiting for Sunday night to come just to read your update! and you never disappoint East! what a way to introduce our beloved Bette and i’m glad it happened a month after the incident. any sooner than that would not have been good for Tina. i am hoping that Mr. Sandman has really sent ‘the one’ this time. PPS!

    7. oh my god, you cannot leave us hanging like this, and you sure better not take another vacation, my heart could’nt take it!!welcome back, can’t wait to see what happens next….

    12. YES!!!!!!!! our Bette is here!!!!! not before time too! Now that you’ve got our Tibette hearts going please promise that you won’t go AWOL again!! I’m sure Bette can bring Tina back to the land of the living!ppps!

    14. Holy sheet count Eastie this was a great instalment, yes indeedie, poor Tina hiding all her silent tears and working herself to death then wamO back to the brunettes. Please come back soon and stop Tinas swooning. Thank you, Md aka Oma

    15. Welcome back. I have missed this story and you did a great job on this chapter. I’m so happy that Tina has finally met the brunette on the beach and it’s our Bette Porter. Thank you and please continue soon :)

    16. Welcome back – and what a chapter! Very creative way to bring the mysterious brunette into the story – its just the thing Tina needs to get her out of her funk! I can’t wait to see the interaction between these two. I am so excited that this story is back! PPS

    17. Excellent. I hope after she regains consciousness, Tina’s able to find some answers about Bette. I hope Tina’s reduced workload doesn’t give her more time to dwell on her trauma, though. And Peggy re-introducing Helena to the mix is going to make things mighty awkward. I’m glad you’re back. Thanks for the chapter.

    18. Thank you for this chapter! I have anxiously awaiting this for a while now. This story is fantastic. I hope Bette can help Tina get over her traumatic experience and start trusting again.

    19. Welcome back, missed the story and so happy to see another chapter. Talk about falling in someone’s arms. OMG, wonder if Bette is one of Helena’s casualties? Bringing Helena back into the mix will be very interesting. Thanks for posting this chapter. PPS

    22. This was a masterful chapter Eastmorn. I am so beyond happy that you have returned. I really hope that Tina will talk with someone about her trauma. Simply distracting herself with work and other things will not help. She is keeping the pain inside and inflicting it upon herself and that only spells trouble. I hope that someone that has recognized the marked difference in her appearance and work peformance can get through to her. Hopefully Helena returning won’t exascerbate Tina’s already fragile condition. Maybe Bette will see her pain and help her with it somehow. But in the immediate future, I’m hoping Bette can help Tina before she hits the floor of the meeting room lol. Please grace us with this story again soon. Thanks.

    23. Love to see this back…Ahhhhh finally the mystery lady…Yes, count me in the numbers that don’t want to see you diappear off the literary face of the earth again…Hmmm I wonder what will happen when Helena returns.. Another triangular courtship again..Can’t wait for more Eastie…(You know that Belena lovin’ you are looking for…Ahehehehe…I’m holding you hostage again…tehehehehe)
