“What kind of law is that, it doesn’t make any sense”

“Baby, a lot of things here don’t make much sense. I wish I could change it but I can’t… you know ther’s actually a funny story about all of this”

“Yeah and what’s that?” Bette said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. She couldn’t believe how backward it all seemed

“Well there’s a ***** activist that travels around the world follwing Mugabe. Whenever he sees him he tries to make a citizens arrest. Needless to say he never gets close enough” Tina was clutching at straws, trying to relieve some of the tension

“Well I just might have to join him. I can’t believe this T, I mean it’s all so… so bloody backward”

“I know babe, but it’s not going to be for too long. Besides there’s not too much to do so we can spend most of the time at home and in each others arms…. speaking of home, I haven’t given you the grand tour yet. You intersted?”

“Sure, why not”

And with that the two love birds began the tour and Bette was suprised to find that it was bigger than she though. There was a pool outside and a pool house, even a vegetable garden and a small house for the Tapiwa and the rest of the servents. She was introduced to Tapiwa’s grandchildren as they lived with her on the property. Bette had tears in her eyes when she found out that they lived her because their parents had died from AIDS and they almost spilled over when she found out about the others. Tina told her that 25% of the population suffered from HIV or AIDS and it was steadily rising.

They spent the rest of the day relaxing by the pool and avoiding the heat. LA was hot but this heat was deadly, it was the kind that pressed down on you and made you feel sluggish. Bette was in the little bikini that Tina had picked out for her, she had noticed it when she unpacked her bag that Tina and the gang had made. Tina had immagined that Bette would look good in it but the reality was breathtaking, Tina couldn’t get enough of Bette’s beautiful body and this bikini left little to the immagination. By the look in Tina’s eyes, Bette knew that the bikini had achieved it’s desired effect and they both knew that they wouldn’t be getting any sleep tonight.
