Bettes hand fell to her side as she stood there, absolutely dumbstruck. What had just happened?

Its my fault. I deserve this. Bette thought to herself, although it came out louder than she intended.

Tina just scornfully looked at Bette and walked right past her into the apartment and sat down on the couch.

Stay strong Tina. I cant let her hurt me again. Our relationship wasnt perfect but I sure as ***** didnt deserve what she did. Its not my fault she decided to tear the walls down. ***** you Bette. Why the ***** did you have to throw away everything we had? I love you so much.

She looked at the silhouette of the woman standing outside.

Shes so beautiful. Why the ***** is this so hard?

Tina was in inner turmoil. She knew that to move on she had to let Bette go, atleast for now, but she didnt want to. Deep down she wished none of this ever happened. She truly wished that they were at home together, in love with each other.

Its just a dream now. I cant believe I honestly thought she was the one that was going to be forever.

Tina just sat there, staring. She looked outside, Bette had turned around and was once again standing under the door frame and for the longest time looked at Tina before timidly calling her name.

Tina?

Tinas eyes didnt leave Bettes and just looking at her she knew how much pain Bette was in.

***** this. Why the ***** should I care about her pain? Its not as though she would have been thinking about me when she fucked that *****.

Tee?

What Bette? Jesus its not like I cant hear you. What do you want to say?

Tina had no idea what was going on with her. She was in so much pain but instead of expressing her pain she was malicious and she couldnt control the bitterness she felt. Bette realised this and thought it best to leave before things spun out of control once again.

I should go. Alice was right. Were not ready to talk yet.

Tina stared a thousand daggers at Bette causing Bette to feel a numbness sweep through her body.

Why is she being so cruel? This is not the woman Im in love with.

Thats right Bette. Just run away. Go on. Go find youre girlfriend. Shell take care of you wont she. And since when do you care about what WE are ready for? Did you even think about US when YOU slept with HER? Did you? You know what Bette? Just leave. Go to your ***** girlfriend. I only let you in here so I could tell you

Tina was burning with rage now. She didnt know how, but she was off the couch and standing only inches away from Bette and when she realised this she had to stop mid-sentence and calm down. She shook her head and looked at Bette straight in the eyes.

Whyd you do it Bette? Can you honestly tell me why you did it?

Bette just stood there. She closed her eyes to stop the tears from falling and slowly shook her head.

Im sorry.
