Bette had just put Angelica down for her nap, waiting patiently and stroking her face until the little baby had fallen asleep, and was walking back into the kitchen. There, she found Tina still at the refrigerator, debating over items for lunch. She leaned against the doorway across the room, silently watching, thankful that this beautiful, amazing woman had found it in her heart to forgive her and take her back. Bette knew she was incomplete without Tina. As far as she was concerned, there was no Bette without Tina, and likewise, no Tina without Bette. A smile graced her lips as she watched Tina, who was unaware of Bette’s presence.
Just as Bette began to step forward to cross the kitchen and surprise Tina, the ground began to shake beneath her. ‘What in the world?’ she thought, unsteadily trying to find her footing on the ground. The force increased until she could barely stand up, and was left clutching the end of the kitchen table in hopes of keeping upright.
She looked over to Tina, who was standing nearly frozen in front of the refrigerator.
“It’s an earthquake!” Bette shouted unnecessarily. “Get under the table!”
Tina still stood where she was, paralyzed with fear. Behind her, a large crack had begun to form in the wall above the refrigerator. Bette lost her grip and fell to the floor, stumbling to get up and trying to avoid chunks of ceiling as they rained down on her. She watched in with trepidation as the crack in the wall continued to grow until it reached the roof. After one unsteady moment, part of the roof and wall gave way. The force of it, added to the violent shaking of the earthquake, caused the refrigerator to rock about on the floor.
Tina had snapped out of her reverie and begun to try to move forward unsteadily, the open refrigerator door smacking against her. Unfortunately, it was too late. The weight of plaster and roofing materials knocked the refrigerator more off balance, sending the appliance over and falling atop Tina, with a pile of plaster, wood, and roofing landing on top of it.
Bette watched in absolute horror as Tina virtually began to disappear under the debris. Dust swirled around the air, getting in her eyes, causing them to water, and choking her. “TINA!” she screamed hoarsely, desperately trying to make her way over the rubble, dust getting in her hair and coating her clothes. She stumbled across the cracked floor, the earthquake causing the ground to break up around her feet, tripping her.
