Labor of love (Alice and Tina have a secret rendezvous with Professor Kroll; Bette’s sister goes into labor)
“What does it mean exactly?” Shane asked.
“Well, the portal was first opened in the past and to complete the cycle, someone has to go back to close it.”
“Wait, so if Bette went back, then she closed the portal and when she comes back, she will reopen it again?” Shane asked to clarify.
“Yes, and, if the professor’s predictions are correct, it will be the last time someone can open it.”
“Well, it’s good news then, right?” Kit said with a smile. “It means Bette is coming home, honey.”
As they finished dinner and went back to the living room, Tina noticed her purse she dropped on the floor.
“I totally forgot about the funeral article we’d found in the library,” Tina took the copy out of the purse, skimmed through and gasped, “Oh my God, it’s not Katie’s funeral. It’s Bette’s father.”
Meanwhile, in another dimension
Place: Orange County, CA
Year: June 1886
“Elizabeth, Elizabeth, where have you been?” Maxine ran down the stairs just as Bette walked inside. “Doctor Taylor thinks Katie is going into labor pretty soon. Mrs. Thompson just arrived. She’ll be helping with the final delivery.”
“Mrs. Thompson?” Bette asked as she hurried up the stairs to Katie’s bedroom.
“The midwife.”
“Oh, good.” Upstairs, Katie was lying in bed, propped by the pillows and chatting with Christina. Mrs. Thompson was a small plump woman and as Bette stepped over the threshold, she just finished lighting the candles around the bedroom to have more light. Katie looked a little pale but otherwise she looked her usual cheerful self.
She stopped talking when she saw Bette and smiled. “I’m glad you are here.”
“Yes, me too. How are you feeling?”
“Not too bad. I’ve been having a few contractions…” Katie suddenly squeezed Bette’s hand and cried, “Oh, one’s coming right now.” Bette held her breath as the pain shot through her arm, though revealing nothing to her sister.
“They’ve been coming right along so shouldn’t be long,” the midwife smiled, gently wiping sweat on Katie’s forehead. The latest contraction passed and Katie lay back, resting her head on a pillow. A young servant girl brought a pot of tea and a tray of goodies into the room and everyone settled around the bed, talking quietly and drinking tea with little biscuits.
