GETTING TO THE GOOD PART—Ch. 1
“Thank you James…” Bette began walking towards her office. “Oh James is Franklin in yet?”
“Yes his assistant told me he had to come in early to take a call from Peggy Peabody.”
“Really…it probably has to do with the paintings she bought. Okay I’m going to return some calls can you come in and remind about my meeting with Franklin.”
“No problem do you need anything else?”
“Yes can you get me Peggy’s invoices for the paintings she purchased at the last exhibition.”
“I’ll go get them.”
“Thank you James.”
Bette sat down behind her desk warming up her computer as she started her day. Bette knew Peggy by reputation mostly, she was a new addition to the CAC board and Bette appreciated Peggy’s contribution to the artworld. She met her at the last exhibition and found her to be quite brash but she said what was on her mind and Bette respected that.
Bette’s experience with a certain Peabody wasn’t at all pleasant she had spent some time with Peggy’s daughter, Helena. They had a very brief liaison most of their time was spent in the bedroom and Bette was willing to concede that there were no problems in that department, but outside of the bedroom Bette found Helena to be somewhat haughty and condescending. They would often butt heads Bette wasn’t one to give up control and Helena wanted just that.
On the one occasion that Bette took Helena to the Planet things didn’t mesh well between Helena and the girls. They all agreed that Helena was very beautiful and had her moments of generosity but they confirmed Bette’s concerns. There wasn’t much substance to their relationship and it really didn’t help that Kit couldn’t stand Helena and vice versa. Their short lived relationship fizzled out shortly after. Bette was fairly certain that Helena never mentioned their relationship to her mother. In fact from what Helena shared her relationships with her mother was quite strained.
When it was time for her meeting James quietly came in to remind Bette. She logged off of her computer before grabbing her suit jacket as she made her way over to Franklin’s office.

this is an awesome start – the pacing of this story is so wonderful but it is hard to be left hanging. So glad you wrote this.
Toribio…this was absolutely wonderful. It really evoked images of what your narration describes. I hope you’ll continue it. If you do, it is sure to be one of the seminal pieces. It grabbed me…it’s really quite good. Please continue.
Oh, no you didn’t just leave me hangin like that! Hmph, the nerve! LOL! Come on, you’re killing me here! I have tpo know if it was Tina she turned around and saw. i bet it was…. uess I’ll have to wait and see. Please post soon!
Oh no… daughter in law? wife to Roger? Huh? So many questions that need to be answered… so PPS :D
i think you should continue with that…so tina is a daughter-in-law? and this is her who just came in? i hope bette won’t get involved with helena again
Wow! Absolutely fabulous!! I was immediately hooked! Thanks!
Very good start! i am waiting Bette meet properly the artist Kenard!
I agree with everyone else…you must continue this soon…I hope Tina isn’t married to Helena…
Great first chapter waiting for the next one…(ok impatiently waiting) thank you!!
WOW!!! This story is going to be fun!!!!! Thanks
You BETTER continue this, or I WILL hunt you down… said with love, of course. ;)
Love the sound of this, but please tell me that Tina is Peggy’s ex-daughter-in law and not with Helena.
wow i must been really busy to miss this…great writing as usual…continue.
loving the story. so come on now, don’t leave me hangin’ here. Please continue.
That was wonderful. Tina is an artist and Peggy daughter in law How long will it take Bette to win Tina? thanks for this awesome story
yeah, TK as an artist, what a great idea? wonder how she’s Peggys daughter in law though, is that by Helena or by Peggys son? please post soon!
This story is going to be full of twists and turns. Bette has to meet with Helena 3 times a month and TIna is an artist, who is Peggy’s daughter in law…..interesting. How long before Bette gets Tina to express her “artistic” abilities in a personal setting ? LOL! Please continue….
Yes you should continue this story. I believe that Bette has found her next artist for the upcoming show. I hope that Tina is not with Helena and that the daughter in-law statement was more of a passing issue. It would not be a good situation for Bette to take Tina away from a Peabody.
A T&B beginning,love them. I hope you continue with this one…Tina is PP’s Daughter-in-Law, now is it through Helena, PP has another Daughter or is it the Son. And to top it T is an Artist. Great Start, looking forward to reading more. Thanks.
I’m hooked! I love any story that features Bette and Peggy. But better than that I love the twist you’ve put on things w/ Bette having already had a failed relationship w/ Helena. This should be very interesting…..Is Tina married to Helena or does Peggy have other children? So excited to read where you go with this story. You are off to a great start so please continue.
Damn this is good and interesting start and like it. Hope Tina not married to Helena anymore. Ok post soon please, thanks!
you cant stop there….love the idea of tina as an artist. pps
What a great start..I can’t wait for more.
Wow T this sounds like another great story! Franklin is an ass through and through. And it’s really not cool for Peggy Peabody to force her daughter in Bette’s face – it’s unethical on Peggy’s part to put Bette into that position. Peggy should pay to have her daughter educated elsewhere…you know she could tell that Bette didn’t want to do this part of the “proposition.” I wonder if Peggy has alterior motives. Tina as an artist sounds very inspirational. Can’t wait for more!
Het Tori, A brilliant beginning. Fabulous to have the gang together and having a blast. Bette was overwhelmed by the beauty she saw on the beach and here’s hoping it is the same beauty now asking her if she needs some assistance. Terrific twist to have Tina (I hope) as the artist even if Bette has to put up with teaching Helena about art. Maybe Bette could use Tina’s paintings as an illustration. Getting to know the painter can only help appreciate the art. As always you have crafted a beautiful drama here. Full of promise and excitment. Please continue soon. A Fan.
erm…can we make a decision after a second chapter? :D please? :D
