    Author Notes:

    Whispered Secrets

    “Bette don’t go,” Alice yelled after her,  “this one’s for you, ‘You’re the one calling the police because those darn kids next door won’t turn down the stereo.’”  In a singsong voice she taunted,  “Watch out Shane, one of these days that knock on your door…” signaling toward Bette with her thumb, “she’s going to make that call!”

    Alice piqued, “Come on now Porters…” but their backs stayed turned. “Awww such fragile souls.” 

    The good humor continued and conversation flowed easily.  Some time later, I excused myself after retrieving a slim binder from my bag.  Working my way to where Kit and Bette were standing, I caught the tail end of their conversation as I approached.

    “…It’s noisy, crowded and you’ll never find a house like the one you have over there.  Forget about any palm trees, you’d be lucky to find a place to keep a bonsai.  Plus the lack of night life…and art.”  Kit said to which they both laughed.  Bette said something about Kit needing to rehearse better material if comedy night was a planned addition to the Planet’s schedule.

    “Bette?” I interrupted. They turned with eyes still laughing.  I rushed into an apology inadvertently talking over Kit excusing herself.  “I was wondering if I could talk to you about something?” 

    There was no reason why I should not have sought her advice.  Her guidance would be beyond reproach and contacts plentiful.  I didn’t doubt her support for an endeavor such as this.

    Proven correct, she agreed to help readily.  I pointed out the pertinent sections while amplifying on the details…themes, floor plans, dimensions, timeframe and the like.  I started to release the clasp to extract the pages for her to take as reference but she halted my actions.

    “Don’t take it apart,” she suggested.  “You’ll just have to reassemble it later.  If it’s all right with you, I’ll take the entire binder and get it back to you, let’s say next Tuesday?  I should have some artists in mind by then.” 

    The original was securely propped upright by a bookend on my desk at work so this copy was available to share.  I contemplated out loud meeting later in the week.  Tuesday was typically a busy day for me so I suggested Wednesday or Friday – her choice.

    2. Saying out loud, what you only reserve for the quiet solitude of your inner thoughts is the first step.

      Now, what they do with those admissions will be the key. Nice to see you post again. Looking forward to me.

    3. I have been waiting sooo long for the next chapter and finally it’s here! Keep going its getting better! Love how you write the emotions! ****sigh**
      I’m in love with this story! Please don’t wait so long!

    5. I’m so glad you posted. I keep looking. I like how you have them admit to each other, how much they miss each other. It’s a nice second step. I see Tina asking Bette for help as the first step.

      Please post when you have time.

      Great story – Thanks for sharing.

    8. So glad to see that you’ve come back to this story…and very happy because it feels like they’re finally turning the corner and heading for home. Thanks for writing.

    11. Oh that felt good! Your story would make my heart ache ie.,the lawyers office, reading the settlement papers..It still aches but I like your uplifting touches!!

    12. Wow! I just caught up on this story and have decided that I can’t go back to the way things were before I ever read it…I’m hopelessly hooked and have to see it through to the end! Thanks!
