    Walk On By—Chapter 6

    “Yeah you are right..But at that time you and I were so disconnected I failed to see that” I answer and it was true..I never noticed

    Bette nods her head “I know Tee..I’m not blaming you at all..I just thought Dan wasn’t as neutral in the way he initiated his sessions..It seemed he directed his exercises in a way to be confrontational.  Even my therapist told me that”

    I sigh as I can’t argue any point Bette has made

    “So did you get an appointment with Rebecca?” She asks as if she was highly interested.  I turn to look at her as she as her eyes fixed on the road

    “Actually not yet…She happens to be good friends with Aaron of all people and he said he would make a call to her.  You know Aaron can be a real asshole but he was very genuine when he offered up her name”

    “Wait?..You told Aaron about wanting to see a therapist?” Bette asked incredulously

    “No…When I told him about me calling off the wedding this morning and that I wanted to take some time off until we have production meetings for Jenny’s movie he suggested her.  I swear I never said a word. I guess maybe he could see the conflict in me when I couldn’t see it myself”

    Bette sighed “Well regardless..I’m glad you are getting the opportunity.  I will need to find someone too when I move back.  And if it wouldn’t be too awkward I would like to see her as well…Separately of course”

    I turn quickly in her direction “Really?”

    I watch her nod

    “Maybe at some point we should do some sessions together..For uh..co parenting Angie”  I knew I shouldn’t have suggested that but I didn’t see the harm it would do since there are things we need to work on as parents together since we haven’t really been on the same page with parenting Angie with our relationship issues..And to my surprise she was nodding her head again

    “Yeah…You are right…My therapist mentioned co parenting therapy to me but it didn’t make sense to do it when you couldn’t be there with me.  I mean it does involve both of us”

    I smile at her as she exits the freeway and I feel my nervousness grow

    1. Wow, that was as lucky as you get!! One hand and its all over…… Three of a kind is usually a strong hand, but it can be beat – a flush of any kind would beat it. A straight of any kind would beat it. Four of a kind would beat it, and a Full house would beat it….. but that which beats everything in a Royal Flush.

      That was a high stakes gamble with that painting…..3.5 million, less the 850K, less Helena’s freedom, plus whatever chips she brought to the table – was her maximum loss. But for to Bette, it was worth the risk…. and win or lose, Helena would be free and have her earnings. That is a huge sacrifice Bette was willing to make for Helena. I mean huge…. This Bette has the heart and sole of a saint. Fortunately, Lady Luck smiled upon her. Oh, that I had a friend like Bette Potter!

      Thank you for telling this story….. amazing chapter really….. can’t wait for the next chapter….

    2. Wow, well that was some poetic justice. Catherine doesn’t know what hit her. She can’t even say that Bette cheated because she dealt the hand herself. I wonder how Bette got so good and lucky at poker? I can’t wait for the next chapter to see what is next.
