    Pretty Women, episode 14B

    Peggy Peabody wasn’t a mean woman, she much rather played at her strenghts, and tried to make people see reason than to stab them in the back. Allthough not backing away from some slight manipulation, it was not her intention to hurt the  brunette before her as much as she soon would…

    It was the smile that made the older woman decide to lead towards the moment in which she would play the thrump card she had been holding onto.

    Peggy knew the brunette had no idea how well she knew the circumstances that led to the interest in her collection. Not even having told all the facts to her own daughter, the redheaded woman observed her socalled enemy, asking herself how much her relevation of knowledge would change…

    She watched, interested, how fierce her daughter was in this debate with Bette, and admired the galleryowners calm quietness, where she, seemingly untouched, listened to Helena… Never had her daughter cared so much for her art, and Peggy couldnt help but wonder how much of Helena’s fierceness had to do with Bette’s date, more than with her priced collection. Was it yealousy that made her act so intense?

    You do realize my mothers collection is a very rare one in its sort… Especially the almost complete collection of Maxime McFay, which is…

    The older artcollectors eyes shot towards Bette Porter, who, at the mention of the name, had shortly winced, before carefully placing her napkin on the table and looking sternly up at her partner of conversation. Her voice showed nothing of the turmoil that was racing within the galleryowner as she interrupted Helena:

    I dó know my art, Miss Peabody, please, I hardly need a lesson. I realize the uniqueness of the collection, thats one of the reasons why I wish to pursuit it.

    Thinking to know the main reason the brunette wanted to obtain her collection, Peggy observed the woman in front of her with ease and accuracy, a smile playing around her lips… A smile that was observed by another person on the table… Only one other.

    Hazel eyes slided over the older womans features, the blondes gut feeling telling her this woman was upto something… She had felt Bette tense up next to her, the tight grip of the hand that lay, hidden for the others, on the galleryowners own leg , the artery that pounded heavily in her neck, slight suggestions and yet impossible for Tina to miss as she sensed rather then saw them in the brunette, and it made her wonder what had made the undercurrent of tension appear so evidently.

    1. Dear friend, dear friend… I’m so touched by your words, really I am. I didn’t read these pages yet, but I had to thank you for bringing such a beautiful ray of sunshine on this particular day I really needed one. Now, I will slowly savouring this chapter… Talk with you soon, dearest M. ! *hugs* – A.

    2. Oh… My… God… J, you’ve outdone yourself with this chapter! That was just brillant! So powerful and intense. I was on the edge of my seat through the whole journey! But with just the right amount of tension, humor and tenderness… Let me tell you the thing that amazed me the most with this chapter (well, one of the things!)… What were the realistic chances to write this chapter being as true to the characters (and by that I mean those from the show) as to the original movie?…. Not many indeed. Well, you did it, my dear! I was just stunned by how well thought the whole thing was… Everyone was being just who they are, and you still have an almost alike scene from the original movie. You are so talented!!! And of course, I love how you relate each event to the B&T’s interaction and relationship… Very beautifully written. As for the French references… Thanks to Therese Belivet for helping you out on this one, cause the result is awesome… One Bette Porter speaking French is definitely a must-read!!! Poor Tina, the fancy restaurant, food and company were probably nothing compared to the turmoil she must have felt when hearing “sa belle”. J, you have to update this very soon… Please. I’m so looking forward to the continuation of this, you’ve kept us hanging to the last word of this chapter… I know I’m being slightly unfaithful to BOF, but this is getting so very good and perfect!!! You are such a good writer! Thank you.

    3. My dear yound friend, so glad to see you had posted. It was so close to seeing the movie while reading your words. Hope to see more of your post. thanks so much

    4. “Slippery little suckers…” I love that!! You’ve made my day with this one hun! Shame when I got to the last page and had to start all over again ;) Per usual, can’t wait for the next “fix”.. i mean chapter ;)

    5. Your are forgiven because of this beautifully written chapter!! It was just awesome. Hope for a another post before 2008 : )! I just love the Bette and Tina connection. It so lovely and touching. Wonderful job!!! PPS!

    6. So happy to see your update. Loved this chapter and the way you are adapting the story. The emotional actions and reactions between the four ladies and how each affected the other was just perfect. Look forward to seeing the play for Tina between Bette and Helena. Peggy is as charming as ever.

    7. Oh how I hope you update this soon! This was an awesome chapter – this story just keeps getting better and better. Your writing is exquisite. I think Bette has a few fences to mend…and one very large wall that need to come down. She really needs to let her defenses down when she and Tina are alone. I think Tina may have some insight as to how to fix all of Bette’s problems; and Bette can for sure help Tina with hers. Please post soon JLB&T! My prayers are being sent for everyone in Tabasco, Mexico.

    8. Hey girl, I am glad to have read this chapter. I keep waiting to see if you have updated and I was happy to read it once I finally was able to read it. Keep it up because I can’t wait to see if or how Tina approaches Bette about her mother’s work.

    9. It is indeed so well written… seriously… so intense and love the tender interactions between both our fav gals. Argghh… I should be in the airport, checking in and taking my 13.5hours flight to UK now :P but too bad… my boss is still the one who decides everything… sigh~~~ Have a great weekend in Blackpool!
