The L Wing – chapter 239
“What if it isn’t – what am I going to do then ?”
“Okay – what if it isn’t “
“I have no darn idea “
I reach out and touch Bette’s face
“Bette – we have to deal with it one way or another “
“You mean I have to ?”
“Its been like the perfect storm for you – all of this on top of Shane — its shaken you because its so personal. I think you have been amazing as the President through it all – maybe as a person you are struggling”
“It has — and so much for my so called strong alpha personality “
Bette cannot see that having a personality flaw is not proof that she is emotionally weak. She is so tightly coiled that she doesn’t see that not being able to handle something does not make her a lesser human being.
“I will do anything that I can for you – you know that “
“I don’t think that you and Ella can help me – as much as I love the pair of you”
“So- what do you want to do ?”
“I do not know “
“It had crossed my mind that you could take the picture from the paper and see if facially it had the same measurements as a picture of your mom “
Bette raises an eyebrow
“Explain ? “
“I was watching CSI the other night – there is a brilliant episode with Roger Daltry from The Who. He’s killing all these guys and he’s doing it in disguise – using latex masks. Well – they get him because Grissom measures the distance between his eyes and mouth and nose -that’s not something that changes regardless of masks or name changes “
She looks and me and nods
“That’s a great idea – but its going to mean it stops being a family only secret “
“We are lucky that we can do this through backdoor methods. CJ is your chief of staff and she is totally trustworthy – maybe you need to talk to her “
She smiles
“What would I do without you ?”
“You think it’s a good idea ?”
“I think its brilliant – I am going to do it “
“You are ?”
“I can’t see much harm in having two pictures compares – CJ can muddy the waters enough so it doesn’t look so obvious”
Bette gets up
“I think it’s the only way that we are going to know whether that was her or not “
“Ella and I are going to ring CJ “ she announces with a real smile on her face.

Thank goodness Bette has a smart wife and that she loves her beyond words. thanks
It is difficult being rajsed by one’s father and one does wonder how they would be different
One surefire way to tell is with the Social Security record, that number and record will follow a person to the grave and beyond. It will follow her thru name changes or anything else she tries to change. Once you have a social securit number, it can not be changed even if you change your name or whatever you might do. You can only have one unless you are put in a federal witness protection program but the original number is still there and the original record is held by the feds and no one is allowed to access the info without a visit from the FBI; and believe me you DO NOT want that level of investigation. Great chapter, AllyE. PPS
BTW AllyE, that level of secrecy would be akin to your MI5.
that was such a brilliant chapter Ally, you are an amazing and a very gifted writer. I can’t get enough of this story. Post soon please. Have a wonderful Sunday
Great chapter, lets see what happens next…
so glad that Tina fessed up and put Bette’s mind at ease about the furtiveness. There’s nothing worse than knowing that people are talking behind your back, to your face is hard enuff. I hope for their sake there is a resolution over this because its affected Bette so badly all her life.
I can’t even imagine what it would be like not knowing what happened to ones Mom. Great chapter, as always. Their love for each other is so obvious.
That was good and glad they talk about it, now let see whats next, thanks!
they talked! but there has to be paper trail i agree so let them follow it! :)PPS
Well I had thought there would be more yelling, but I’m glad they got to a place where they could talk calmly. Somehow I think Bette still might have a meltdown on the way. I hope not though. Thanks for posting!
Glad they got through that one…pps
Your writing of these two is AMAZING – they fight so realistically. I love it and I love you for writing it and all your others as well.
And even if they can’t find a death certificate so far, they can see where the paper trail on her mother goes (tax records and the like) even if only to see where it ends.
Good the storm is gone. I thought Bette gets up as a firework. I hope Bette can easy her mind soon. Tina is really her strong. Gread Chapter PPS
I love my L Wing …… That could have really gotten ugly … but thankfully she entrusted her loving wife. Tina will get to the bottom of it i’m sure. PPS :D
