Vignettes: Chapter 31
The five women sat at the table surrounded by a breeze that swirled their thoughts all around their heads. Bettes eyes were closed and her head was tipped back, soaking in the sunlight, lost in her own thoughts. She was afraid to open her eyes, knowing that a response was expected from her after Tinas brutal honesty. Words escaped her and she wanted to be alone. She opened her eyes and stared at a lone cloud wandering across the sky.
Suddenly feeling trapped, Bette stood. I think Im going to go now.
What? Shane, Alice and Dana all said in unison, all shocked. Tina looked away.
Ill be back for dinner, dont worry. She forced a smile and walked away before any of them could hold her down or muster an argument.
I cant believe she just left. Dana said.
What were you expecting? Tina asked hotly.
Well, I was hoping for some sort of reconnection at least. Alice admitted.
Dont hold your breath. Tina muttered.
Tina, tell me what you were expecting. Shane offered a listening ear.
Tina rolled her eyes and sighed. I dont know. I guess a miracle. She laughed. Or perhaps just a response.
Dont you think Bette walking away was a response? Shane asked.
Definitely. Not the response I was looking for, though. Something verbal wouldve been nice.
A gentle breeze blew around them again as another cloud rolled over the sun.
Tina, let me tell you a story. Shane said, shifting in her chair so that she was comfortable, Tina imitating her, eyes focused on her friend.

Good! Now kick with the outside of your foot… excellent! Shane, I think youre getting it. Fred was running next to Shane who was attempting to dribble a soccer ball as she jogged towards the goal.
Shane never once took her eyes off the ball below her and her concentration poured out of her as sweat dripped off her brow. Fred cheered her on, giving her advice as she neared the net.
Ok, now sink it in! You can do it, just like I told you. Get your foot under the ball and launch it towards one of the high corners.

Go Tina go! Y’all got the in-bed parts of life worked out. Now, just the other bits of the day down and it could all be good. Wonderful chapter, as always.
That’s the spirit, Tina: Start saying “we” a whole lot more often and make me smile. Once again, great chapter.

FarEast,
Finally Tina has had some sense knocked in.
And Shane, the Queen of Cool, being the dispenser is a stroke of genius.
After Bette’s shock exit, it is great to see that Tina has the gumption to go after who she wants. Yeah, it’s Bette, yep, it really is Bette. Woo Hoo!
Can’t now wait for your next post as this tale is brilliantly developing into a must read.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
A Fan.
Run, Tina, Run! Go get our Bette, and when you find her, hold on to her!
Yay! Rock on Yoda :) Thanks for posting, Fareast. You are amazing, as always.
I love when Shane tells to the others what happened between her and Fred. So I hope Tina’ll do that her heart wants.
