    Author Notes:

    Bette’s trip to Philadelphia to settle Melvin’s estate reveals some unexpected information about Maxine.

    Tee set her cup down on the nightstand and took Bette into her arms. Bettte nuzzled her head against Tee’s breast.  Tee, ” We’re going to miss you.” as she stroked Bette’s hair and kissed the top of her head.  Bette grumbled, “I hate Philadelphia, especially in winter.”

    The plane ride had been uneventful – just long.  Bette was glad she had taken the redeye from LA.  She would not have to lose an entire day just flying.  As Bette stepped out of ther terminal, the cold winter wind bit her face and the sting of the air sent a chill thru her entire body.  The day was cloudy and damp – shon was expected later.  Hailing a cab, Bette mumbled with hostility out loud, “It is so fucking cold.  I am going to freeze my ass off.”

    As the cab wormed its way thru heavy traffic, Bette contemplated the meeting with her father’s lawyer.  Marshall had been her father’s lawyer for as long as she could remember.  He was almost like family.  Marshall had also been her father’s best friend.

    Uncermoniously, Bette announced to the older woman seated at the receptionist’s desk, “Bette Porter to see Marshall Butler.”  “Yes Ms. Porter, Mr. Butler has been expecting you.  Please follow me,” as the receptionist motions for Bette to follow her down the hall.

    As Bette walked into Marshall’s office, he looked up from his desk with a big smile, “Bette, so wonderful to see you after all these years.  How long has it been? 16 – 17 years?”   “Actually Marshall I think it has been more like 20 – when you and dad come up to New Haven for my graduation.”  “The years have treated you gently, you look exactly the way I remember.”  Bette chuckled and replied, “I think it has more to do with just being happy.”

    For the next several hours Bette and Marshall discussed all the mundane business associated with asset disposal.  Bette was relieved that Marshall had done so much work that she wouldn’t have to spend too much time in Philly.  She was already missing Tee and Jeli.  Marshall had listed the condo for $850,000.  He also had an antique dealer catalogue the furniture and household items and was ready to proceed with the auction.  She was not surprised that her father had stipulated that the proceeds from the sale of his condo were to be given to David.  Bette thought to herself, “Daddy raised David – David was the son Daddy never had.”  There was life insurance, stocks and bonds that were for her and Kit.  Melvin had taken care of everyone.  She thought Kit would be pleased that Daddy didn’t forget her.

    4. I could see Melvin doing this, so sad that Bette lived for 34 years thinking her Mother didn’t want nor loved her.Will Bette ever think the same about Melvin. I do believe that this will make Bette a better Mother/ thanks

    10. This was a fabulous start!! I look forward to reading the next chapter. So, if Bette’s mother was deported, that means she was from another country…I am excited to see which one! The only change is the rating. This is marked as a NC-17. It should be PG, or PG-13. Thanks!!!

    12. I am so glad that someone is taking on what may have happened to Maxine. It would be so nice for Bette to have her mother around. Especially now that we know that her mother actually tried very hard to see her daughter.

    14. Susan… i loved this… why did you not continue… melvin was not my favorite father figure and you sure hit the nail on the head… it felt like if he gave these things to bette he would be forgiven… WRONG… i hope you will think about another chapter… with her and tina reading the letters together… thanks… later babe
