”To where the skeletons are buried?” I play along.
”Most definitely,” she whispers, ”I have a plan for him. So, you turn those special charms of yours on Savoy.”
I rinse out the mixer and fiddle with the liquor bottles, a deepening frown clouds my face. Mother taps me firmly on the arm. ”Did you not think I meant, now?”
Dallas Bistro – Tina
Alice slides into the booth across from me, continuing to talk, as if she’d never left. ”This just in. A very interesting piece of news.” Alice looks at me expectantly, and wags her iPhone.
”And…?” I answer her with a slight singing tone — to get on with it.
”Word is: Your guy, Aaron at Shaolin, has a gambling problem.”
”Medium or big?” I think back to his overly long lunches of late.
”Big, or people wouldn’t be talking about it.”
”You, an infamous gossip monger, know better than that.”
”I’ve never liked that word.”
”Two words, Alice.” I point at her. ”Gossip monger.”
”No thanks you’s necessary. Did you hear me? Your picture could be in trouble.”
My stomach descends a few feet to the floor. As much as I cannot say it — ever, ever, ever out loud — career wise, I need this movie. ”I heard you,” I finally admit.
The waitress delivers our wine.
After a sip, Alice continues. ”On the hospital front, sounds like the tests didn’t kill either of them. Shane’s taking a cab to meet us – so ready to get away from her mother.”
”So needed a break from Sue Ellen.”
”By the way, I’m seeing Miss Laredo later. I’d ask you to come, but…Trouble seems to follow you.”
”No, that’s okay, Alice, but let’s set the record straight. Since I’ve known you – let’s see – you’ve been flat broke, then had a show on TV — outing people. You’ve been hired, fired, and nearly jailed after your pill head self-destruction. Most ridiculous though, was when you became a Yoga freak.” I shake my head at her in disbelief.
”Seriously? That Yoga business was all Helena.” Then, her eyes narrow. ”But hey, Tina, anytime you’re ready to talk about it — I’ve got a few dozen questions after meeting your sister.”

Yes! Update! This is getting more complicated for Bette? What the heck Savoy wants for Bette to do?
And Tina. Is there trouble in the horizon for her? Gambling problem for Aaron? Damn!
Thanks for the update BB.
It leaves me wanting more, especially now we have an ‘English Rose’ in there :-)
Don’t make me wait too long for the next post !
Hmm, what the hell Bette landed in? The story has so many twist, it keeps you captivated.
Hope there will be not trouble for Tina and her job.
Thanks for the update!
Sounds like Tina and Bette are in for some trouble. Enjoyed it
Trouble? Not really. But things to discover. Principally, I’m interested in your thoughts on Savoy, and the other cast of characters you met at the Dinner Party. I’m writing and beta testing a longer story here, with The L Word cast of characters, for a film script. The screenplay, (beta testing here in prose) will feature the strong female leads I’ve introduced, and an unfolding environmental theme that’s dramatically set in an environment both beautiful, but with a tragic past.
I’d enjoy hearing what you think.

MARY asked BETTE to come to her.BETTE meets NELLIE who is being poisoned by someone,SAVOY is a whistleblower on the run,the MAYOR’s son is in jail,the MAYOR’s wife is eating herself into an early grave and now MARY wants BETTE to entertain SAVOY(who hasn’t met TINA yet)who talks about BP(british petroleum)with GATOR and oil spills.Very twisty but entertaining especially if Aaron is gambling the movie away and ALICE wants to know about ms psycho.continue please

Absolutely nailed it! How involved can Bette get with this issue, she’s got Tina and Angelica to consider, how risky will this be? Also, what’s happening with the film. Bette and Tina have already been through so much, can they both deal with these new challenges together? Roll on the next installment…
Blackbird… Always a hidden gem! An ode to NYFW? The iconic Iris Apfel? In the last chapter, too ! Whoa Nellie! ! Very nice touch!
I am an admirer of these amazing photos
you put to accompany this story,
I must confess that I saved a few on my computer.
I hope Bette return home soon.
The entire constellation.
Bette does return in the next story – The Good Sister – https://lesfan.com/?p=92437
Please enjoy! Blackbird

This chapter has left me in so many directions with questions: Politics; gambling problems; Tina’s sister;
Shane’s mother; BP oil flow causing copiousness environmental problems; spark my interest in Bette’s mother’s abundance of money…The new character Savoy fits her name to perfection wonder where she
will lead us; can’t see Bette obliging her mother getting it on with her…again you have plenty of material here to continue keeping the readers anxious awaiting for the next chapter…#GreatJob…
