    Author Notes:

    “Yes,” Tina finally found the word she was searching for as she whispered it softly. Never in her life had she been so sure…

    Chapter 17:

     

    *knock knock knock knock*

     

    ‘I guess she isn’t home,’ Bette thought after knocking a few times with no answer and no luck.

     

    Bette frowned, and laid the flowers on Tina’s doorstep.  After freeing up her hands, Bette dug in her purse for her cell phone.  She had long since memorized Tina’s number while looking at the directions to her house.

     

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

     

    When the knocking stopped, Tina felt a load lifted off her chest.  It had been pressing on her all last night up until today.  If she could ignore Eric for now, she might not have to deal with her problem.  Escape and avoidance weren’t solutions, but at least it would buy her time figuring out how and what to tell Eric.

     

    Tell Eric, how would she do that?  Forget telling Eric, how would her parents take the news?  Through the years, they have come to know and love Eric as a son of their own.  They couldn’t have been happier for their daughter to be so lucky in love, to find someone that was willing to take care of her and love her.  Thinking back to last night, Tina remembered the expression on her parents’ faces, they were happier than she was, they were more anxious, and *****, they would’ve said “Yes,” and married Eric.

     

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

     

    Once she dialed those ten numbers, Bette closed her eyes and took a deep breath while she told herself “It’s just a phone call, relax,” and hit the call button.  With every ring, Bette could feel her heart beating faster.  With each ring, that meant Tina was either closer to picking up or it meant that Bette was one step closer to hearing Tina’s voicemail.  Which one would it be?  Regardless, what would she say, she wasn’t prepared for either one. 

     

    “Hi, this is Tina, sorry I am unable to answer your call right now, but if you leave your name, number and a message, I will return your call as soon as I can, thanks!”

     

    ‘Okay, I got voicemail, should I hang up?  Should I leave a message?  What should I do?’ This wasn’t a difficult decision to make at all, but what was Bette supposed to say?  She’s outside her door waiting for her?  She found out where she lives and she’s like some crazy stalker?  Bette wasn’t prepared to talk to Tina, but she wasn’t prepared to talk to a machine either.

    1. well when she tells eric, NO. it willb e very difficult but she then has bettes strong and supportive arms to comfort and protect her, right? im telling ya, stop selling yourself short. your doing a great job and just keep posting and thanking us. its a two way street with ff stuff. you post we thank and you thank and then post and around and around it goes. so thank us and post again asap.

    2. Smile, this is great. I’m anxiously awaiting your next post. I understand lazy days, and it’s a holiday, so I’m just grateful you decided to post when you should be relaxing, like the rest with the day off. I’m glad that you got these two together. If Tina didn’t get to Bette in time, it would’ve been disheartening. But, they’re together now, and we’ll just see how they navigate from here. Post soon.

    5. Another great chapter. You really do a great job. This is one of my favorites on the FF site. Always looking for another post from you. Not new to your story, I just haven’t had time to comment or even breathe for that matter. Very busy lately, so I’m catching up with alot of my favorites. Unfortunately, I’m not commenting like I should, but I wanted to say great job. Love it.

    6. To answer your question, Mechanical. You haven’t disappointed me yet and I don’t expect you will, this story just keeps getting better and better. You really are a talented writer, along with a few others I have found on this site. I wish all stories were this good maybe then I wouldn’t be afraid of starting my introduction to Short Fiction course!! Calculus I can do, but literature, uggh! Try and take it easy and good luck!

    7. ‘Skool makes you sooper smart’… hahaha… I almost burst out laughing and I think one of my colleagues caught me with this huge grin on my face and I tried to cover it :P
      Yeah, I was busy with work last week and this week I’m more like… trying to relax a bit :P although I have another assign that’s gonna due this thurs :S
      Hahaha, well… hmm… should set a lower temperature or shorter timer to prevent the toasters from burning? :P
      I need more spoilers… hahaha… it’s not ruining your story… I swear!! :D

    10. Hey Smile Thanks for posted again Whoa! it’s getting better and really nice that Tina catch Bette LOL!

    15. Glad to see another fantastic update from you smile….Tina catching up to find Bette…giving her her coat to warm her up….waiting for the next one smile…post soon

    16. This story is just so fucking cute. Tina runs after Bette, Bette just wants to take care of her, they finally kiss what more could you ask for. But Tina has got to let Eric go, its not right to keep him hanging, and she really won’t be able to move on with Bette until she does. Maybe Eric could stop by to check on Tina, find Bette and thenTina could just kinda let him know that way. Nah, thats mean. Hey, you do what you have to do with work and school, will be checking in to see if you’ve been able to drop in.

    18. Wonderful chapter. I especially loved the part on Tina running after Bette and leaving everything to catch the love of her life. Great job.

      I hope you Americans could enjoy your labor. After all the horrible news of Katrina it would be nice to be able to relax a bit. Just know that the rest of the world is praying for you and will send you relief efforts now that Bush has asked for it. Kiitos!

    22. Thinking back to last night, Tina remembered the expression on her parents’ faces, they were happier than she was, they were more anxious, and hell, they would’ve said “Yes,” and married Eric.

      ** LMAO! I had this thought when reading it.

      Smile, there are so many of us that are enjoying your story. I sincerely hope that you continue writing it.

      What albeez said, in essence is very true….you write, we say thank you…great job. Your writing is a way of telling your readers, “you’re welcome ~ and here’s another chapter!”

      Which leads me to….so where is it?
