Shane: You’re thinking drugs?

Shane’s voice went cold.

Tina: You would know if she was doing drugs Shane…wait… I didn’t mean that how it sounded…I mean any of us would see if she was doing drugs, we’re around her so much these past few weeks, I just mean she can hop in a cab and go across town whenever she wants, or I don’t know, forget I said anything, what do I know I don’t have kids and you’ve been taking care of them…

Shane placed her hand on top of Tina’s

Shane: Tina?

Tina looked up with tears in her eyes.

Shane: Do you want to have a baby again?

Tina nodded.

Tina: Yeah and I think taking care of you and Dash in the past few days has caused this large screaming voice in my head but we are just starting to get things back on track and all is well in the Porter Kennard house I don’t want to fuck it up by rehashing…

Shane: Tina….talk to Bette, she wants what you want, she always does when it comes to the big things…I think if you talk to her she might surprise you.

Tina jumped and pulled out her cell phone.

Tina: Speak of the angel.

Shane rolled her eyes at Tina’s comment.

Tina: Hey baby…yeah ….we’ve been at it for awhile now…its gonna be hard but we might be able to pull it off if we can get more adults to help out…Yeah…okay just go to bed baby, you don’t have to wait up…night.

Tina hung up the phone and smiled as she looked up at Shane.

Shane: What?

Tina: She told me to tell you to go home and go to bed you’ve been running yourself ragged this week.

Shane held both her hands up in the air and shook her head.

Tina: I guess I will talk to her tomorrow…it seems like her mothering clock has kicked in also.

Shane nodded and started putting the left over food in her mini fridge. Tina looked around and kicked her feet up.

Tina: Look at you Shane you’ve got your own office, your pretty much running Lather, and all in three months, I’m really proud of you.

Shane crossed her arms and leaned against the wall. She shrugged and looked down at the floor.
