“Ummmm…no…Look, just meet me at the planet in 5….can you do that?”
“Yea, sure….I’ll be there…”
Kit hung the phone up and grabbed her purse on the way out….once at the Planet, kit

walked in and grabbed a table….
“Hey Kit…Where’s Bette?” asked Marina…
“Why? Did u talk to Tina or something?” said Kit scarily…
“Um…no…I was just wondering…she has usually already been in this late in the evening…I have

her coffee waiting and it’s getting cold…that’s all…”
“Oh…I’m sorry…”
“Kit..are u alright?”
“Yea…” said Kit with a sigh…
“Can I get you something?”
“Ummm….I’ll have a coffee thanx…”
“Ok…coming right up…” said Marina as she walked away puzzled to Kit’s reactions to the

questions..

why is she so uptight…and secretive…oh-well…she will talk when she is

ready..’ Just then Jenny walked in the door…..and Marina stood in awe of this

woman…standing in her cafe….that she had told she loved on an answering machine.’*****.’

she whispered to herself…
On the way to taking Kit her coffee, Marina smiled at Jenny…..”Come on…I will seat you

over here…Are you hungry or thirsty?”
“No…No..I am not…thanx…I just wanted to see you….”
“Sit and we will talk….but i have to take this to Kit first….”
“Okay…” said Jenny as she sat down and watched Marina walk away…

“Hey Marina….”
“Hey.”
“Kit, what is the major ***** emergency here?” asked Alice as she plopped down in the chair

next to kit….
Marina was still standing there…..until Kit looked up to ….”In Private..’ she

“Bye..’ said Alice as she waved a slow short wave…
“Now…goddamit…speak..”

“FFFUUUCCKKk…Oh my god Alice…..I didn’t think of that…come on…” said Kit as she
