Kirsten managed to calm Bette down, and the anger was replaced with worry and regret. Bette paced around, went out into the street…went back in. Kirsten told her that she
would track Angie down, she wasa police officer, that’s part of what she did. So calls were made, and a sixth sense told Kirsten that Dina was somehow involved. she had not
heard from her sister….that in itself was suspicious, confirming. Kirsten found dina’s phone number….thank god for her contacts. It was all about connections. She pressed the
buttons while Bette paced around and around, white-faced and worried. When Kirsten told Bette she would fetch Angie her lover blanched, Bette wanted to come with her but Kirsten
warned that wasn’t a godd idea. So Kirsten made Bette hot milk…and made her sit at the couch and left. When Kirsten left Bette got up and waited…waited for what seemed
forever. The the *****’s phone rang and kirsten told her Angelica would be staying at dina’s overnight….that was all. Bette had almost cursed Kirsten, she wanted to talk to Angie but
Kirsten said it wasn’t a good idea. So Bette went to the hospital.

 What had happened at Dina’s?

 When Kirsten knocked on the door a voice inside told her the door was open, she came in feeling scared, she hoped Angelica was ok. She saw how hard Bette was
shaking her. Angelica was sitting on the couch, drinking orange juice. Dina was sitting at the table..eating cereal. The domesticity and calmness of the scene sickened Kirsten.
Something was not right…and it wasn’t. When Kirsten quietly said to Angelica that Bette was sorry and that she was here to take her home Angelica said no….just simply no. Kirsten
said Bette was distraught, it was a moment of anger…and that Bette wouldn’t punish her or anything, that she just wanted her home. All Angelica said was…”don’t tell me what to do, your
not my *****’ mom” Kirsten just about walked over to do some damage, but didn’t. Kirsten turned to Dina….”help me convince, why are you keeping he rhere any way” Angelica
spoke up…”she’s not keeping me, this is my free will….mom hates me, i love her but she hates me and i just want to stay here for awhile”  Kirsten said no Bette didn’t hate her, she just
cared too much and it came out the wrong way….at that Angelica snorted…”why don’t you get the ***** out of our life!!?”  Kirsten opened her mouth to say something when Dina
spoke…..”she’s knows what you did Kirsten, so why should she take orders from you?”  Kirsten just gaped at her…did Dina tell Angelica that Kirsten left, all those years ago and
left Dina? Why was Dina even meddling in their affairs?  “i dont think we should deal with this just now Dina more important-”   “oh no (dina stood up) i think we should deal with this
now”…..

 On the other side of the room a war was warring inside Angelica. She wanted to go home, but mom would kill her…she wanted to go with Kirsten, but how could she after
what dina  told her?…she wanted to think straight,  to deal with this mess smartly, but how could she when all she thought of was what Bette screamed at her….fool…her mom
hurt her with those words, those searing words…
YOUR A FOOL
YOUR A FOOL
YOUR A FOOL
YOUR A FOOL
YOUR A FOOL

   What Angelica should have been really worrying and thinking and doing…was the  consumption of something she never thought about once, a morning-after pill.
