Tribute – Chapter 8
"… I just fell in love. So completely and unexpectedly. And this connection that we immediately shared was so deep and unconditionnal that it somehow convinces that it could have happened at any time of our life."
"Parce que c’etait elle, parce que c’etait moi." Bette uttered.
"What’s that you’re mumbling, Porter? Something about a ‘purse’? Alice quizzed.
"It’s French, Alice. This French author Montaigne wrote this famous line when trying to explain how unique was the friendship he shared with another writer, La Boetie. It says ‘Because it was him, because it was me.’ I think that says it all, and truly applies to Tina and me."
Bette ends her sentence looking lovingly at her partner, who smiles back at her and tenderly leans her head on her shoulder.
"Aww. That’s really sweet. I love France, especially Paris! One day, I’m going to live there!" Dana said.
"Errr… " Alice grumbled, "Are you out of your mind? French people are so rude! I was in Paris once and I met this very cute French guy. But gosh, when I asked him what he did in life, he was just so fucking rude to me!"
"Really…? What did he say to you?" Tina asked.
"Well, I didn’t really get what he actually said, with the accent and all, but I remember that we were standing in front of the Sorbonne, and he said something that sounded very much like ‘I’m going to fuck you’… Errr, so rude!"
"Ahem, Al?… Wasn’t it more like ‘I’m going to the FAC here’?" Bette suggested.
"Well, helloooo! Still freakin’ ruuuuude!!!"
Bette burst out laughing.
"Alice dear, in French, ‘fac’ is short for faculty. This guy was simply answering your question and telling you that he was studying at the Sorbonne university."
Alice looked at Bette blankly, and obviously speechless for a few seconds.
"Uh-huh!… Then I guess that slapping him in the face was way out of line… Oups!" She mumbled.
Everybody laughed heartedly. Then Bette raised her hands in the air,
"And you wonder why most French are anti-Americans!!!"
Alice tried to change the subject, "Anyway… So you guys really think that meeting in college would have made no difference in the outcome of you ending up together?"

Montaigne et La Boëtie, bien sûr !!… Un instant, j’ai cru que tu allais faire allusion à Michel Sardou… J’avoue avoir eu très très peur… Bref, excelllllllllent chapitre, K. !Je dois dire que même quand je ne me roule pas de rire parterre, il y a une telle bonne humeur et un si bon esprit qui se dégage de cette histoire que c’est un véritable enchantement ! La complicité entre les personnages, les taquineries, les anecdotes, les “dossiers “révélés au grand jour, les discussions plus profondes, les heures passées à refaire le monde,… Nostalgie, quand tu nous tiens… Mais rien que du bonheur tout cela vous dis-je ! Bon, et puis la naïveté d’Alice m’éclate. Quant à Bette et Tina, pour des “doyennes” ( du groupe, s’entend ), je les trouve fort espiègles et farceuses et c’est bien comme ça que j’aime les voir ! Elles sont vraiment trop rigolotes. Par ailleurs, je crois qu’Alice ferait bien d’arrêter de chambrer Bette à propos de son âge si elle ne veut pas s’attirer réellement son ire…LOL ! Faut pas non plus pousser mamie… Faudrait pas qu’elle nous l’énerve, hein… LOL !Enfin, en ce qui concerne les stars de ce chapitre, j’aime beaucoup la façon géniale dont tu as amené l’excellente histoire de Kanaf et notamment Bette la serial-kisser !! Très bon, ça ! J’adooooore !Et puis, je suis sûre que je ne suis pas la seule à avoir remarqué qu’en plus de tous les vibrants hommages que tu rends à ces merveilleux auteurs ( que je ne connais pas tous malheureusement… ), tu t’es également offerte un très joli clin d’oeil à notre ami Cédric Klapisch !Bon, K, je suis catégorique, tu ne peux pas t’arrêter là . C’est juste impossible. Même si c’est de façon plus ponctuelle, tu dois absolument continuer cette saga ! S’il te plaaaait…
