“What do you say?”
“I try to tell her the truth. That her Mama needs some time before she can come back and take care of her.”
“I supposed that it the truth, of sorts.”
“That’s as close as I can get.”
“I’ll call you tomorrow, to tell you how I get on. I will get her to you, I just don’t know how long that’s going to be.”
“Just get her here soon Helena. She should be with Angelica.”
“Take care Bette.”
“We’ll talk tomorrow.” confirmed Bette, before hanging up the phone.
Helena paced the floor of Tina’s living room. It really was getting late now and Bette’s words were ringing in her ears. ‘I can’t believe you let her go out by herself.’ Helena had convinced herself that it would be alright. That Tina could look after herself. Now she realised how foolish she had been. There was no doubt in Helena’s mind that Tina was drowning her sorrows in a bar somewhere.
She sat down and tried to concentrate on the book that she had been reading. When that didn’t seem to hold her attention she considered calling Bette back. To ask what she thought that she should do. Helena looked at her watch, it was nearly 1am. Bette wouldn’t appreciate a call at that time in the morning, not least because it would wake Angelica up. She knew that calling the police would be no use, they would just tell her what the rational side of her mind kept repeating. This wasn’t the first time that Tina had been out this late, and unless something drastically changed, it wouldn’t be the last.
Helena got up again and walked over to the window. She looked out onto the dark street, there was no movement outside. Tina had picked a quiet neighbourhood to live in when she had chosen this apartment. Helena could hear the distant rumble of traffic and momentarily panicked at the thought of Tina being involved in an accident. She shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts, it was then that she heard movement, and the sound of a muffled voice standing outside Tina’s front door. Helena moved quickly towards it, turning the latch to find Tina searching for her keys.

Yes, there is a very bumpy road ahead for tina, for everyone associated really. But it has to be Tina’s choice, no one but her, she’s the only one that can make that choice. And hopefully for the right reasons, and Angelica is as right as anything else. This Tina is a total mess, I hope that this is her rock bottom…somewhat like ms Jo’s, you two are on the same wave length…great writers, great stories, great storytelling!!!! Tks CG
It seems like Tina’s about to start climbing towards another direction. As always so well witten.
Why can’t I find other words for my comments? I just keep repeating myself. Oh well. It’s so hard to see Bette and Tina apart and under these circumstances and still, apparently, caring for each other deeply. I hope Tina can pull herself together, with Helena’s help because she’s not going to be able to do it all on her own, and find her way back to her family. Angelica needs her, and I also have this feeling that Bette wouldn’t mind having her around either… How do you always manage to break my heart with ALL of your stories?!
“I could always drug her, chuck her on a plane and before she wakes up we’ll already be back in LA.” suggested Helena, brightly – That sounds like a reference to “Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood” lol
That was a hug Tina needed. Now she’s got to pull herself together so she cna hug her daughter. Here’s hoping Helena’s mission is a success.
Tina definitely needs to get her ass back to LA and get some help.
I’ve always liked Helena, even in the show during S2 but you and tiff make me like her even more. And lol at there’s always the swimming pool…
ha there is always the swimming pool!! nice well shes a mess and so tru she needs B and A to help her thru it!! thanks CG
Do you think it would speed Tina’s decision to go back to LA if she were to know that Bette would meet her at the airport with her Levi’s on?? I think it would… next plane out!
I hope that you get Tina better. Mostly for herself and then Angelica and Bette. Thanks for the story.
I would like to know, how old is Angelica? Tina needs some help and I think Bette will be the one to get her out of this druken mess. Looking forward to the next chapter.
Great chapter – It’s a wonderful twist to have Bette and Helena working together to get Tina back on track. Can’t wait to hear more specifically what derailed her to begin with.
i’m glad helena is there for tina but her move to LA is a must, i think only angelica and bette can help her out of the mess she got herself into, because bette was there from the beginning
Damn this is sad for Tina and glad Helena there to help her, and hope Tina will decide to come back to LA with Helena and will get help. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Tina is a sad woman. Despite my dislike I hope she gets help. It’s not good for her or Angelica for her to be like this.
Tina better pull herself together before somebody has to scrape her off the pavement.
I love this….but I’m about ready for T to go back to LA, into rehab and her wife’s arms…and take care of her baby…enuff grief, she loves Bette…and Bette loves her…u know that!!!! we all do except IC and cronies…lol
Great writing Citygirl! Tina definitely needs to go back to LA.
I’m a bit confused about the timeline and also with Helena questioning of Tina’s choice of bed mate? Is she emotionally attracted to man while physically needs a woman? I’m perplexed and Tina’s one messed up woman. Can’t wait for the back story that lead up to this. Thanks.
