Chapter 2 – Vehicles, Resumes and Schools
Tina: Well, I recommend that when all is known that it be revealed immediately. Then we put the angry parties in a padded room together and not allow them out until they have resolved the situation. We cannot allow them to run from each other.
Bette: Well, if we put them in a padded room, we need to bind their hands and feet so they can do no physical damage to each other. They can only scream and yell and finally just talk. Then we will get appointments with Dan Foxworthy for all of us. Then maybe we can put this behind us. Oh, what a mess.
Tina: And what if Melvin knew nothing about Paris?
Bette: Then we have a different set of problems. We get Joyce Wischnia involved. She will guide us on what we need to do to get Paris her share of the estate. But that still leaves me with who paid for Paris to go to school? Maybe Mary had a sugar daddy? That would be fine with me. In fact, it might make things a lot easier, as long as it was the truth.
Tina: Why don’t we have dinner with Paris and Jeanette on Wednesday evening after we see Dr. Wilson. We will work Paris’s pre-college education into the conversation.
Bette: That’s a good idea. Kit may have the will by then as well. We will then know if we are going to Foxworthy or Wischnia.
Tina laughed: Let’s get some more coffee and start on our research. Later in the morning I will call Jeanette and asked them to meet us for dinner. Why don’t you get started on your resume’?
Bette: Good idea.
Daniel came down stairs bouncing full of energy. Angie followed moving like she would rather not be up.
Tina: I have prepared some yogurt and fruit for your breakfast. Get some milk or juice or whatever and have your breakfast.
Bette: After breakfast, why don’t you two go for a swim for a couple of hours. You need to get some exercise. Angie, you need to be studying this afternoon. And you need to start a list of what you think you might need for school. We will go over it tonight. You need a finalized list before you leave for New York. You need to include everything – supplies, clothes, bedding, bathroom needs, appliances, lamps, luggage, storage trunks and bookcases. We will go to the grocery store in New Haven to get some snacks and survival foods so you do not need to list those. But you may want to start a list of snacks for that shopping trip. We need decide what we have and what has to be purchased. We may do some shopping on Saturday for things we can buy here. We will then ship them to New York to Marilyn’s or to the apartment to store until we get there the last of August.

Love all the details!
Didn’t know anything about going to university and the different college houses, after reading it i would advise Angie not to join one of them. Find her own way and make her own friends, not ones who hold standards and where you can’t be yourself.
Bette, Tina, Angie and Daniel are in for a ride with all these changes in their life.
Look forward to read more!
Bibi,
Thank you for reading…. this is strictly a personal opinion on the role of sororities and fraternities – to belong to the right group and meet and know the right people. If it were not that way, they would not discriminate who should be a member and who shouldn’t. I’m sure others have their own view which would contradict mine. Such as the way life is…
My hopes in this story is to show Bette and Tina going through some normal life decisions and relationships. It is not a story of high drama…. but I am in hopes that sometime, the everyday things can cause the everyday requirement to connect and communicated with your spouse and family. I do go into some detail in Bette and Tina’s communication with Angie and later with Daniel as well as each other. I hope that the reader will see how these two create and maintain the solid relationship they have which will carry on for a life time. This will not appeal to a whole lot of people…. but I hope that when you go through these next few months with Bette and Tina, you will know them as I do.
This is a long story…. but it is complete and ready to post. Let me know the frequency you would like for me post and I will keep it coming…. Thank you for reading…
I am very proud of you for completing your story. I think k it’s nice to see them going through real life. I hope to get back in the game when I am well enough. Congratulations on your story.
Thank you for your explanation about your intentions of this story.
About the frequency of you posting, it really doesn’t matter for me, i work in the weekend every other week and then free on Thursday and Friday but i work early and late shifts. Post whenever you want and i try to read it if i have time, i promise i will read it.
I like the story. This chapter of course is your opinion. Having been to college and being a member of a sorority, I differ in my opinion of college. It’s not ALL ABOUT Greek life. They are not discriminatory. There’s also other facets of college life that make it some of the best years of a person’s life. I made life long friends, both Greek and non-Greek that made my college experience a great one. There’s a balance and all sorts of things that I feel you didn’t touch on in the explanation to Angelica. However, it’s your story and your opinion, your version. I will continue to read because you’re a great writer. I just felt this chapter was unbalanced.
Trecelovinit…. Thank you for reading…. First, I must say, this is the first of several conversation Bette and Tina will be having with Angie about college life. They will leave it up to Angie to decide if you wants to get into Greek life or not. With the continuing conversations they will have, I hope you will see there is a continuing theme in that Angie is totally in control of her life at college. That includes who she associates with, what organizations she decides to belong to, what she studies and how she spends her free time.
I think I have a different definition of discrimination. I mean to determine who should be a member and who shouldn’t on whatever basis that happens. It could be based on personality, on appearance, on social contacts or family contacts, or course of study or some other criteria which is totally not apparent to those who are being chosen versus those who are not. For everyone who desires to be a member does not get an invitation to be a member. So someone is discriminating against those they do not wish to extend an invitation in favor of those they wish to extend an invitation. And that criteria may have nothing to with color, race, religion, gender identification, sexual orientation, political persuasion or country of origin. But the process is discriminatory in that each house have a limited number of members. Sororities and Fraternities are social organizations based upon knowing the right people to enhance you college life and your post college life.
Yes, I am probably not presenting a balance picture… but I’m not sure that I am capable of presenting a more balance picture. This is my Bette and Tina’s view based upon their own experiences. And believe it or not, they are desperately trying to allow Angie to make up her own mind about college life when she goes off to experience it. But they do want her to see that with every benefit, there are cost. And please remember, both Tina and Bette attended college some 35 years ago. Life has changed in that period… Their experiences are not going to be the same as Angie’s experiences will be.
Thank you for your comment…
Thank you for your response. I do appreciate your perspective and responding to me. I do love the story and as I stated previously, I think your writing is great. I will continue to read. I do respect and did state that it’s your opinion and your story. I agree their time in college was 35 years ago. Honestly, it’s been 30 years for me. Things definitely do change and I appreciate different perspectives. Thank you for writing.
