The L Wing chapter 170
Alice threw her hands in the air
“You just sat back and ordered none of us to say anything. It was the first time that you have disappointment me not just as the President but as a person “
“Alice – what was I supposed to do – have Emma assassinated? “
“Of course not – but the only reason you didn’t slap her senseless was to make HER happy “
“Alice – HER name is Tina “
She rolls her eyes
“No Alice – Tina is my wife.”
It would be so easy to get into the usual mud slinging fight with her. I spend a few seconds regaining my composure before trying again with her
“Alice – please call her Tina. If we are going to make any sort of progress here you need to accept that I am unreasonable in the extreme about my wife. I am fiercely protective of her and of our child. Can you do that? “
Alice pauses for a few minutes and nods
“Sorry “
“That’s okay – so at Thanksgiving you really hated how I reacted – that was obvious by how you spoke to Tina. Alice – she was devastated about what her mom said. She blamed herself even though I didn’t. I wasn’t going to do anything that would drag the whole saga out. I just wanted it ended in public because I knew how much hard work and soul searching was going on with the Kennard’s. From Thanksgiving onwards you and Tina just rubbed each other up worse. You started referring to her as Madam First Lady before we got married which just rubbed it in that her whole life was never going to be the same. And then T finds out that Helena cheated with you. You have to admit that things have gone badly very quickly “
“I resented Tina – I resented that you relied so much on her and that we stopped hanging out “
“We stopped having our Friday night game of poker “
“Exactly – I think about two months after Tina arrived you stopped showing up for our game and you never showed up since “

You know despite some of the crap I said in the previous comments, I admit that Bette and Alice needed to work things out and I am glad they are slowly. I am hoping now that Tina and Alice will talk things through and that Tina doesn’t hold a grudge. PPS
Way to go Bette. Way to go Alice. Way to go Ally.
I found the Confederate flag more humorous than offensive. Granted I’m from a redneck state and totally cracker white. I could argue and call it an article of history, but so is a flag with a swastika on it and I wouldn’t like it too much if an employee put one of those up. No time to read right now so I’ll read it another time and leave a comment on it.
Yay! I’m so glad they finally talked like the adults they’re supposed to be and Bette didn’t sack Alice. Bette needs to remember how much Alice is a part of her life and after meeting Tina she kind of dumped her. It happens all the time, but true friends must remember the ones who have been with them through thick and thin and through the years. We can never dump our friends. Thanks Ally, great job!!
Another Great Chapter Ally!!!! Thank you
Sweet little forgiving Tina
“That’s a two way thing Bette” – I kept thinking of that during this chapter. Whenever I feel cheated or left out, I tell people! And I expect the same in kind because I’m not a mind reader. My opinion of Alice went up a little bit here, but I still think going the jackass route was a bad idea regardless of how much she was hurting.
GREAT chapter Ally, I was hoping that Tina would walk in or over hear some of their conversation and offer an olive branch, but then I remember that they were behind closed doors. There is a song we used to sing in Girl Scouts that said “Make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver and the other gold”. This is a line that they all would be good to know and remember. Maybe Tina could come down to check on Bette and talk for a little while. At least she and Alice could begin to make oe rebuild an in road before Alice continued her leave. After all they should remind Alice she is about to be an Honoary Auntie twice (It’s more special when you choose Children gaurdens) and part of the Villiage that they will need to raise their children. PPS :o).
OOooo…Tina holds a grudge!! Hey Mate! I didn’t get to comment on the chapter you posted in the other story, but that one and this one, were superb! I love that the communication here was honest, the cards were on the table, and they both got a say adn still ended up seeing the other’s point. Excellent! Thanks!
well that was great all around sweetie.thanks.
Excellent chapter. I appreciate their honesty and unvarnished comments. PPS.
Had to come out from the silent readers group to do a little happy dance upon seeing your posts! Can’t wait for a chapter of your other story.
Glad to see the two of them talking. My opinion of Alice went up a little after this chapter. She’s hurting and Bette is not seeing her side of things until now. I was hoping that Tina would come downstairs and overhear the conversation outside Bette’s office. Tina needs to take responsibility for the deterioration of Bette/Alice’s friendship as well. Great job, Ally!!
Very nice redemption of Alice and her relationship with Bette.
This is awesome!
Geez Alice that last comment was very cruel; imo T has been extremely bloody tolerant; I would have tongue lashed Alice to shreds long ago and too bad about Bette’s feelings…the choice is simple: your wife or your friend? It has to be the wife…grow up Alice, go, get a life….more soon pleasz, I’m on the edge of my seat ready for Bette to dump Alice and go upstairs to her lovely wife…in other words, never mind the crap; Alice is probably burnt out, nothing a good rest and some sun can’t cure espaecially on full pay…lucky her that Bette is still sane rather than pussy-whipped as Alice insists. PPS
Hey Ally, Great to have a new and brilliant post form you. Loved it. There was such angst and hurt at the beginning as Bette and Alice tried to sort things out. Finally some progress was made as them both were honest about everything that had gone on before. Many hurtful and hateful statements were made but Bette and ALice have been friends for a long time. This means that I think Bette is right in trying to get to the bottom of the matter and see if there is any way they can resurrect their realtionship. This is now hope as each is starting to see where it all went wrong. Cool to see these friends working at their friendship. Yes, Alice needs to wrok things through with Tina but they both have common ground in wanting what is best for Bette. I hope that they can get there. Awesome as ever. Many thanks for this insightful installment. Ally, you breath life into every word. Much gratitude from Your Loyal Fan.
another great chapter ally ! hope you post again soon
Man that alice sure doesn’t know when to quit, even when she’s making headway, she puts her foot right back in it. The dialogue and dilemma between Alice/Bette/Shane is so perfectly portrayed though. We’ve definitely all had similar conversations at some point, at least I have. Thanks ally for all of your efforts providing us these stories, this one in particular. they’re awesome!
Super duper fabulous and great!!!
