“It is I, your cheerful courier.”
Bette looked up from her desk to see Alice entering her office. She took the envelope that Alice passed to her, opening it up and pulling out the proofs.
“Thanks, Alice.” Al took a seat in the visitor chair. “Nice of you to run this extra errand for me.”
“You’re welcome,” Alice continued, changing up her voice to sound like a second person. “I never mind favors when…”
“Fuck!”
The invective broke up the monologue.
“Not now, thanks.” Alice interjected.
“One simple card, and they can’t handle basic English grammar,” Bette continued, having a monologue of her own. She picked up the phone, mashing the buttons for the printer’s number. “Get me Franco. I don’t care if he’s with a customer. I’m a customer.”
This was followed by milliseconds of silence. “Right. Have him call Bette Porter at the Porter Gallery within the next three minutes if he expects to keep my business.” With that, she slammed down the phone, not waiting for a confirmation.
“Fuckers.”
“Would you, uh, like to get some dinner or something?”
“Does it look like I’m able to go for dinner, Al?”
“I don’t know. I thought you might like something to get rid of the taste of the shit sandwich that you obviously had for lunch.”
“I didn’t have lunch.”
“Bette.”
“Alice. Thank you. Yes, I’m a bitch on wheels. Since I arrived today, I’ve been subjected to idiots at every turn.”
“But at least you got laid this weekend.”
“You’re way off limits.”
“I thought I could get you at a weak point.”
Bette slumped back for a moment in her chair.
“Can’t blame me for trying,” Alice continued.
At that point, the tone sounded that indicated that someone had entered the gallery.
“This is all I need.” Bette groaned.
“Clients? Since when are clients a bad thing?”
“They’re inopportune.”
Tina popped her head into the doorway of the office. “Hey there.”
Alice watched as Bette’s demeanor instantly lightened, her smile coming to the fore.
“Hey yourself,” the tall woman responded.
Alice launched into a new monologue. “Hi, Tina, I’m fine thanks.”

A group hug is called for. Thanks!
Great chapter, I can just see Bette saying to Alice “What do you think you’re doing hugging my girlfrind?” and scaring her s**tless. Post when yoou can.
Bette should be thrilled that Tina and Alice are becoming friends…and she should be thrilled her girlfriend beings her dinner!!!
That’s right, Tina, put the Alpha One off-balance! Thanks, Pseud!
Oh, the hug won’t bother Bette, and no matter how bad her day has been I’m sure Tina will make it better.
pretty much the only story I’m making time for right now…thanks!
Good luck with the busy week that is going to be keeping you from writing about a busy Bette and Tina, who are apparently too busy to get busy on the couch.
That was great and Alice in big trouble for hugging Tina lol. Hope to see you soon, thanks!
Wheeeww, Bette is showing her jealous streak. Maybe Bette did not know she has a jealous streak but it has now shown up when it comes to Tina Kennard.
When is a hug not just a hug? When Bette Porter isn’t instigating it, apparently. Thanks for posting, cheers!
Well after this brief moment that probably at first glance for B looked like she was trying to put the moves on T, I hope Al has the good sense to remember her line, “…two’s company, three’s not allowed.” Still interested and hoping you can PPS!!! :-)
i hope bette is not jealous… or tina may just run for the hills… thats all she needs… i think bette will know alice is her friend and is of no threat… PPS
Hope Bette isn’t such a horrible mood that she doesn’t get it is just a hug. pps
Dinner…mmmmmmm. Hungry Lament is hungry.
Hey Pseud, Great new chapter. I love how Bette was a real grouch with Alice and the printer and then smilled when Tina entered the room. Tina just lights up Bette’s world and mood. Good to have Tina and ALice sorting things out. They both want what is best for Bette. Just hope Bette gives them time to expalin their hug before exploding. You really do make me laugh out loud. Brilliant. Please continue soon ( or as fast as you can). Many thanks for Your Loyal Fan.
Hope Bette isnt to jealous,but knowing our Bette she is. Tina will not like that
Was that aimed at the girls or is Franco getting a new one ripped?
green eyed monsters are bad!! lol thanks for the update!
i hope you’ll find time to post…i can’t get enough
Man Bette is in a foul mood, hope she doesn’t rip Alice’s head off for hugging Tina, or worst yet pick a fight with Tina! Don’t keep us hanging too long! :)
I just hope Bette does not blow a fuse. I am glad Tina and Alice have become friends. Thanks P We will wait for your next post.
Oh noooooo….a busy Pseud means we’ll have to wait longer for an update…just at a critical moment too. never mind, await we will!
