The Roommates – Fast Forward to 2019: Chapter 54
Tina rose up on her elbow, looking down at Bette’s worried eyes. She moved the loose strands of long, dark hair away from her lover’s face. “You will feel how you feel. You and Sidney spent many years together. I would expect you to be sad, to mourn.”
Bette stared up at the ceiling. “I’ve forgiven her, Tina. That doesn’t mean I have forgotten. What she did, it changed me. I was so lost. I’m still not the same.”
“I know, Babe. The mature part of me respects how you have forgiven her. But honestly, I can’t. I cannot forgive anyone who hurts you. You were so scared,” said Tina.
“I was. I was so ashamed of what happened. You wouldn’t let me hide. You were right there,” said Bette, fingering Tina’s platinum locket.
“I’ll always be there,” said Tina.
Bette’s lips trembled. “If Kit dies, I don’t know what I’ll do. What about Dylan?”
“We’ll get through it. And Dylan has you. And the rest of his family. You’ll make sure he’s never alone. That he’s loved and comforted.”
Bette sat up quickly. “Shit!”
“What’s wrong?” asked Tina.
Bette looked at Tina. “I – – – I need to call Daddy. I don’t think anyone would have called him.”
Tina found an in-flight telephone handset and handed it to Bette. The brunette dialed her father’s home phone and held on tightly to Tina’s hand. The phone number was one she knew from memory. It was the same phone number she’d had for her entire life. It was an oddly comforting tie to her prior reality.
The hazel eyes studied her as she listened to the phone ring. Her father’s voice was deep and gravelly when he answered, “Melvin Porter,” he said.
A rush of emotion overcame her, and Bette struggled to speak against the threat of tears. Her throat felt tight and she closed her eyes tightly. “Daddy,” she said.
She could hear him becoming more alert. “Bette? What’s wrong?”
“Daddy, there’s been an accident. Kit and Sidney are in the hospital. I don’t know….I don’t know if they are going to live, Daddy. You might want to get to LA.”
“Katie has been in an accident?” he said softly.
“Yes, Dad. A car accident.”
“Which hospital?”
“Cedars. I was out of town. I’m flying back now. We should be there in a few hours. I’m going to head straight for the hospital when we land,” said Bette.
“Has there been any word on how she’s doing?” he asked.
Bette whimpered. “No. My friend Alice was at the hospital. They haven’t told her much of anything. But it doesn’t look good, Daddy. Patricia is already there.”
“Christ,” she heard him murmur. “I’m heading there now. I’ll see you in a few hours.”
“Okay. I’ll see you then,” she said.
The call ended and Tina replaced the handset. “Thank you,” said Bette.
“He’s heading to LA?”
Bette nodded. “Yeah. He’ll meet us at the hospital.”
The brunette reached for her girlfriend and Tina moved close to her. The movie producer stood near the bed and Bette buried her head against Tina’s chest.
The worry took over and she came undone, sobbing in Tina’s arms.

So this was Steven’s plan. Kit and Sidney were in Bette’s car. He was going to bump Bette off in an auto accident, but that was not who was in the car. Melvin is a high powered lawyer and he will go ballistic when he figure out that this was not an accident and his daughter has been seriously injured or killed. It won’t take much to get someone on vehicular homicide. I am going to guess that Sidney was driving and she was on the side that was hit. The probability of her living is not good if they are already asking if she is an organ donor. And I do not expect that the driver will be willing to go to prison without telling who paid him to perform this little service.
This is Mr. Kennard is the most vile of human beings if he had anything to do with this. If he has such a problem with Tina’s choices, he should disown her and go on with his life.. He is absolutely stomach turning…..
Great chapter……really good plot line and descriptions… Very emotional for me. Please get us another chapter as soon as you can. Thank you.

Totally agree with your thoughts.
So did Papa Kinnard slip Henry some poison that memmics a heart attack???
AReader says
If Sidney dies then I hope Henry will too.
Steven Kennard is a very vile man and I hope he will be caught and rot in hell.
Hope Kit is not in a serious condition.
So many hopes. ????????
Gosh MTS, this story is soooo good that I hope you’ll post again as soon as possible.

So, i think phone call from “cop” about robbery in gallery was also fake? I think this can be a link for authorities to find who was responsible for this – i mean this Steven Kennard.

Right, Melvin! I forgot that Bette still had to contact him in this 2019-universe. Her mother as well.
But the car crash? Steven K. is nothing but evil. What a shock for Bette. Please don’t let Kit die. I like her and she is so important for Bette.
B would be devasted and guilt-ridden if Sidney died. They were in her car, maybe t-boned on purpose to warn and hurt Bette by attacking her family. And consequentely hurt Tina.
Hopefully Tina was also alert enough to notify her security team of her return to LA. Dad K will have some thughs on watch at the hospital.
MTS, this is definitely the part of the rollercoaster ride where you think you’d die.
Thanks for keeping the suspense up. I wished I could skip to the end of your “book” to read the happy ending (hopefully) but at the same time I don’t want the story to end any time soon.
Please more
