If It Comes Back
Leaning over the bassinette, Alice couldn’t help but smile. She watched the maneuvers of little Angelica, and out of habit, started commenting on her thoughts. “Oh yeah, just keep this flexibility where you can stick your feet in your mouth, and you’ll be the most popular girl -”
“Alice!” Bette’s sharp tone cut off Alice’s soliloquy.
“What?” Flashing a smile and feigning ignorance, Alice turned to face Bette.
She was greeted by the sight of protective-mommy Bette. Arms crossed, foot tapping protective-mommy Bette, to be specific.
“You will not continue to have such age-inappropriate conversations with my daughter.”
Alice tried the smile again. She should have known that Bette was long since rendered immune to her many charms.
“She’s not dating until she’s at least thirty, anyway,” came Tina’s groggy voice.
Bette rushed over to Tina’s bedside. “Sorry if we woke you,” she said soothingly, brushing the hair off Tina’s forehead.
Tina took hold of Bette’s hand, placing a kiss in the palm for her efforts. “You didn’t wake me. But since you’re here, you can give me a hand.”
Together, they managed to get Tina onto her feet, and started the slow walk to the restroom. If there was any discomfort at having Bette assist with such a personal task, Tina had yet to give any indication.
Leaving Tina for a moment, Bette returned to where Alice was still keeping watch over the baby.
As if caught, Alice immediately stated, “I’ve been good.”
But Bette’s attention was only on the baby lying there, experiencing what thus far seemed to be one of her rare, and brief, moments of waking contentment.
“Isn’t she amazing?” Bette whispered. “I can just watch her and be happy.” Bette gave Alice’s shoulder a squeeze and headed back to check on Tina.
She gave a light knock on the door before entering. “Are you ready for the long walk back?”
Tina was standing at the sink. She slipped her arm into Bette’s and took advantage of the support, her other hand supporting the incision, as the two of them walked back to the bed.
“You did good, TK,” Alice offered as she kept her guard near the baby.
Tina gave a small frown, which Bette knew related to the failure of the home birth and subsequent delivery here at the hospital.
