Previously…

There was a knock at the door. I turned around and said ” who is it?”

Alice said “Bette, the baby needs to be changed” she then said “and you know Shane and I don’t do dirty diapers” she adds “we’ll be waiting down stairs”

I said “okay” I laughed and so did Tina

She said “your right, they are cool and funny?”

I leaned in and kissed her. I said “you haven’t seen nothing yet” I stood and entended my hand and she took it

I lead her over to the door and opened it. We exited my room hand and hand and walked back downstairs.

The start of something new(from the life and times of Bette Porter) chpt 2

                                  “Hello, how are you?”

The next morning I didn’t have class. To be able to roll back and forth in bed was a blessing to me. I glanced over at the clock and it was after noon. I hopped out of bed and went into the bathroom. I took a shower

15 Minutes later

I exited the shower and made my bed. I sat down along the soft mattress and throught of Tina. I had a nice time last night and I hope she did too. I thought of her baby and wondered what she looked like? And whether or not she looked like asshole. Tina told me yesterday how he had used the word dyke referring to me. I tried to ignore his ignorance and rather smile instead. I made my way over to my closet. What team should I wear today?

There was knock at the door. I jumped suddently and said “who is it?”

Bette’s mother said ” Elizabeth, your friend Tina’s here”

Oh my god just when I was thinking of her she pops up. I couldn’t believe it. I said “tell her I’ll be right down”

“okay” Bette’s said as she turned around and went back downstairs

I turned back to my closet and chose my second best team. The Celtics. I dressed immediately and headed downstairs. She was in the livingroom waiting for me. I smiled and said “hello, whose this?” looking down at the baby she holding

She said “hey Bette, oh this is Christina” she handed the baby to me
