L L arrives in LA outwardly the same young woman that left. Few noticed the inwardly looking and much more secure transformation.
Her mother was the first to become aware and even she didn't pick up on it right away.
"Did something happen to you up north L?"
"Yes mother it did. I became my own person, totally."
Her mother knew then the gravity of what had happened, whatever it was, since L never called her 'mother'.
"You and Dad pushed me around, used me and made personal fortunes off me as your child. That changed when I turned 18 and the change will be finalized in the next few days. Particularly since Dad is totally out of the picture. I figure you have a total of five to seven million stashed away according to my new accountant. Use it wisely since you will be reduced to 1.5% of my net net for the next ten years. To keep that you will have to stay south of San Francisco and out of my life except for the rare specific staged events to keep up appearances. Any attempt to pry, snoop or meddle in my life in any way what so ever will result in the loss of that 1.5%. You have forfeit the right to true motherhood with your greedy behavior. It's a court ordered separation or 'Writ of personal Control' just short of a Restraining Order and legal disowning. I'm also setting up a Trust fund for my siblings that you cannot touch either. I have told them all these things. We won't even go into your emotionally cold behavior toward me and lack of emotional support, like that was my job to support you emotionally?"
L turned and walked out. She never saw her in a familial circumstance again.
Most of the week was spent with attorneys, bankers and accountants getting all her legal, financial and contractual affairs in order. She ran all her businesses herself now.
It was in the process of taking care of business that those she works with and fellow actors noticed a calm but focused behavior mixed with the old cheerful and vivacious behavior she is famous for. None seriously questioned her since she didn't have many 'close' friends. Her mother had always seen to that. Despite all that her true spirit prevailed and she has come out of it a very strong and independent person but at a price. She is now attempting to rectify that with her new friends and adopted family.
L put up her PR front while in LA with a quick trip to NYC to close out some properties there as well. She has focused her earnings and savings in more established investments and REAL Estate, not overpriced condo's and houses. She has her focus now. Acting, singing and a private life. There will be the 'outings and nights on the town' for the Paparazzi, fans and yellow journals. Maybe even some flirting with other male celebs but she has decided to put all this in clean separation much as have her new celeb neighbors.

Back at the Fur Ranch Gina has been crafting a truly fine plan of the cabin with her new software. All her erotic fur thoughts are being realized in a truly wonderful furry womb design.
There is the Fur Well and Fireplace of course but the Grotto Bedroom has turned into a wonderful place Gina is sure L will love.
In a phone conversation with the Architect L fired him for his total lack of sensitivity to her thoughts and desires. Gina is on her own and had contacted her Engineering Professor. He is very eager to do the job for some nice furs. He wants to make it a model of super efficiency. Everyone now involved is proactive.
The structure is quickly sorted out and Lyle, her Professor, had some additional suggestions for the lodge like look which were incorporated. Seems park Lodges were a passion of his so the idea and integrity of the concept will be more than preserved. They began ordering up logs and used timbers to have a working stock. Also they got a local excavator to start digging out the site and mining the rocks and boulders that would be used for construction. They wanted to plan it log by log and boulder by boulder, all marked for location and use. One very large natural flat slab rock was found and set in place for the shower floor. The Bath room will be built around it.
Gina calls L to update her on their progress. L thanks her for good news and to hear her voice. "I'm doing OK but it is all so tedious and emotionally cold. The night clubbing and socializing is so manipulative. I can't wait to get back. I guess I know where home is now."

Gina picks L up at the airport an they head directly for their house. It had snowed while she was gone and everything was cold and white. Windblown drifts were everywhere with the mountain's craggy rocky peaks showing the only dark along with the dark green of the pines. Even they were drooping with heavy layers of snow. She snuggled to Gina as she drove. The furs warming them. L had kissed her at the Airport but in a socially acceptable way.
"I missed you in the most desperate way while I was gone Gina. Absence does make the heart grow fonder. I want desperately to make love to you first and then Ben and Mom. While I was gone it was like there was a hole in my heart."
"I was so busy with the cabin .. oh that would be cruel. I missed you not being able to share the joy of my work. I wanted to make love to you so bad."
Getting home L and Gina race for the Fur Pit and are quickly wallowing with each other in the furs.
Ben is at the Fur Salon and Mary is out food shopping.
