Betty was sat in her apartment watching British TV for what would be the last time, the last five years of her life were in boxes she'd loved London she'd loved the nightlife, she'd loved her job but that stage of her life was over now.
It was funny how it had happened she'd just got back from a hectic day at work and for the first time in her life she'd felt like just taking a year or so off. Then the phone rang she had to run right across the apartment to get to it. She picked it up.
"Betty is that you?" Claire Meade said as she sipped a mug of Coffee from her office in New York.
"Mrs Meade, how are you? How's every body over in New York?" Betty stammered not quite believing who was on the other end of the phone.
"We're fine Betty thank you for asking, well most of us you see one of my editors has had a car accident."
"Who? Are they OK? Was it that guy from Player I always knew he'd get himself into an accident with all that dangerous driving he does?"
"No Betty, it was Sofia and no she's not OK. In fact Betty she's dead. It was the breaks I think but I suppose we'll never be sure."
"Oh my god I'm so sorry did you want me to recommend someone from London to take the job because one of my friends would love to move over to New York and…"
"No Betty I want you to have the job. I've been reading your magazine and I know what a success it's been in London and you are the perfect person to edit MYW and bring it into a new era"
"Mrs Meade I'd love to but LDN magazine is my baby and I…"
"Betty I know Daniel would love to see more of you"
That last line had haunted Betty for weeks as she had been packing up her flat and saying goodbye to London friends and making up with London enemies.
"Papi!" Betty shouted as she stepped off the plane.
"Betty I'm so glad you're back!"
They gave each other a big hug and chatted about Papi and Elena's wedding, waiting in the car was Bobby.
"Hey chipmunk Hilda's on the line"
Hilda was working late at her new hairdressers in Manhatten she was so annoyed that she wasn't able to be there to welcome her little sister back.
"Betty! God I have got so much to tell you, Justin's got a job at Mode!"
"Wow Hilda that's great he's always wanted to work in fashion and I'll see him everyday now."
"You'll never guess what he's doing though"
"Go on tell me Hilda"
"He's Marc's assistant!"
"That's great Hilda and how's little Santos doing"
"Oh he's fine you know he's a baby and he's not hysterical like Justin was at his age, jeez do you remember that time he woke us all up crying in the middle of the night and I had to get up and feed him in the middle of watching a movie with that guy I was dating"
"No Hilda I actually don't. Anyway I'll see you later are you sure it's OK me staying with you until I can find an apartment"
"Yeah sure as long as you're willing to get up and change Santos' nappy at five AM"
"Of-course I will and I swear I'll be staying with you a week I'm looking at this apartment tomorrow it looks gorgeous!"
"OK see you tonight then Betty!"
The car stopped outside the Meade building to pick up Justin but he'd already told half the staff Betty was going to be in the car so the whole of Meade had congregated onto the pavement to see her again"
Marc and Amanda pushed their way to the front accidentally pushing over one of the accountants in the process.
As Betty stepped out of the car to say hello Amanda gave her the biggest hug the world had ever seen and explained how she'd became Mode's head stylist. Then Marc made a bitchy comment about Betty's outfit and explained how he was creative director of Mode and running Teen Mode at the same time and how much of an amazing assistant Justin was.
As Betty and Marc pushed through to find Justin Betty's necklace got stuck to Wilhelmina's blouse. To Betty's surprise Wilhelmina gave her a huge hug and said how much she'd missed her. Betty was of-course a little bewildered but not as bewildered as she turned round to see Daniel for the first time in three years.
