Meanwhile, in another dimension
Place: Los Angeles, CA
Year: Early July 2006
Tina was frantic. Her face was covered in tears and her nose turned red from the applied tissue but she didn’t seem to care what she looked like at the moment. There is a truth in saying, ‘Don’t ask questions you don’t want to know the answers to…’ but sometimes the unknown could be worse. You can’t move on if you never know.
“Oh my God, Al. Bette is not coming back. I think she decided to stay with Christina. She’s left me here all alone.”
“First of all, Bette loves you. Neither time, nor distance can separate you because you belong together. She’d never choose Christina over you. And second…” Alice took Tina’s hand and squeezed it gently. “You are not alone, Tina. You have us.”
“Thanks, Alice, I know,” Tina squeezed back. “But you all have your own lives and at some point you all gonna go your separate ways and I’ll be all alone. I don’t want to be alone.”
Alice took the letter from Tina’s shaking hand and examined it under the light. “Damn, you really can’t see anything useful here. Looks like someone sabotaged it on purpose.”
“Why do you think that?”
“Because the Bette I know is meticulous and detail oriented, someone might even call her anal. No way she would spill the ink all over the letter and still send it to you. It means…” Alice stroked her invisible beard and squinted at Tina, “ Someone else spilled the ink to cover up Bette’s last words, sealed the letter and Bette had no idea.”
“But who would do such a horrendous thing?”
“My gut tells me it was…wait for it…” Alice paused for dramatic effect. “Drum roll, please…it was…Christina.”
“But why would she…” Tina’s eyes opened wide and she gasped, “Oh, that bitch.”
“Exactly,” Alice laughed. “It can only mean one thing. Bette wrote that she was coming back to you and Christina didn’t want you to know that because she wanted her all to herself.”
Tina’s face brightened with hope, “I still wish there was a way to find out what she wrote.”
“There might be a way,” Alice said slowly, closing her eyes in concentration. “One of the Top Ten articles I wrote was on the ink stains removal from different household items…” Tina looked at her incredulously and Alice rolled her eyes, “Yeah, yeah, it was a long time ago and I had to make living somehow, while trying to get recognized as a serious journalist. Anyway, I got sidetracked and also did a lot of research on forensics, as well. There are a few things that can be done but they require some special equipment, like ultraviolet light, infrared imaging, an x-ray machine or a special microscope for the analysis.”

Hi! Thank you for your decision to continue and finish this story!
So, about the chapter – i must say i never like Helena. In some stories and TLW i hate her, in some stories i indifferent to her. In your story – first option.
But i hope Bette was not too late and it was her in bed with Tina.
Waiting for the final chapter!
O-M-G!! You made my day. Hell, my entire year. Wonderful update. Such imagination with the entire plot line. Great character arc for Bette. Love, love, love this story. So happy we’ll finally learn how it turns out. No pressure now, but I think a fitting day to post your final chapter is October 18, the 10th anniversary of Chapter 1.

Wow, it was about time, I honestly was thinking to send you another pm as the last year, asking you for a new chapter; but is fine, I have problems with my time too, jobs are always in the way.
As Zhenya, I also pray that the one beside Tina is Bette and no the psycho of Helena.
I hope you could update soon, and write another story later, maybe a little bit shorter because of the time, but I really would like to read more of your stories, this is so good, please, keep writing.
Thanks for the update and again, please post soon.

Finally!!! It does not matter to wait a year to read this story because they are so good that it’s worth it, but please finish it before I’m dying to know the end (an ending that many pages). Congratulations and thanks.
what an exciting chapter!! can’t wait for the next!!!
thank you!!!
BetteandTinaForever,
It is now the last day in August 9 days since you posted this Chapter.
I have done a complete re-read and enjoyed it more, I think, than the first read. although, as a 75 year old, I am a little disturbed that all your Grandma characters seem to be in homes and losing their minds!
Please, Please post the Final Chapter of this great story this weekend and make my day! Certainly do not wait until October – I love CellaNox but think this a stupid idea! :-)
This is a great story and I will be sorry to see it end and will be first in line to ask for an Epilogue
Living in hope

I agree with SassyGran – if you can – don’t wait until October to post last chapter!
Great to see a new chapter of this wonderful story, I’m hoping Bette showed up in the knick of time kicked Helena’s ass and fell asleep waiting for the drug to wear off. They really don’t need this type of crap after all they have been through. PPS
You are not forgetting about us, aren’t you? Please, finish this great story!
Hi! Still waiting for the last chapter!
