Through Angelica’s Eyes Ch. 2
Previously…
“Thanks Bette.” Shane opened the car door and hopped into the front passenger seat. Bette just stared at her for a moment – half not knowing what to say, half not wanting to have to explain her own actions. “So – are we just gonna sit here afraid of what the other one is thinking or might say?”
“Well, I was wondering the same. What happened Shane? Where did it ALL go wrong? Why are you and I sitting here together instead of the way it’s supposed to be? Bette rambled.
“Wow, that was a mouthful Bette. I’m not sure I have the answers to all of your questions,” Shane responded.
Again a giggle arose from the backseat. Both Bette and Shane turned around to see a very content Angelica tugging on the ears of her bear suit and giggling every time that the hood fell over her eyes. It was her version of peek-a-boo – even if no one else was playing, she was enjoying herself. After all the crap they had been through over the last few weeks, it was the innocence of a child that could make them laugh.
“Bette, you know what you gotta do… right?” Bette was silent – deep in thought. “Bette? Right?” Shane studied Bette
“I know Shane. I know. It’s just… so… I have worked so long and hard to get to a point in my life where I wouldn’t have to deal with all this… bullshit.” Bette was silent for a moment – her eyes glossing over as she fought to contain the emotion that was brewing under the surface and threatening to emerge. She turned and stared intently at Shane. “I know, Shane, that I fucked up. I know that I failed the one person to whom I promised I would never hurt… but how much more punishment do I have to endure for that mistake? All I want is to have MY life back… or some semblance to it. I just want Tina and that precious angel back in my life… working on being a family.” Bette looked back at Angelica who had ditched all efforts to remove her hood, snuggled up against the blanket that Bette had tucked around her, and was drifting off into a much-needed slumber. Bette was lost. She knew she needed Angelica in her life – more than “part-time” – If Tina would even allow her that now after this debacle.

Both of them make good points. As far as Shane goes, who should she listen to? A father she’s known for maybe 10 seconds, or a friend she’s known for years?
hopefully police isn’t there for bette…and bette and shane have to listen to each other
I swear Tina better had not called the po po on Bette. I bet it was Henry’s idea. Thank you for posting…please let them work this out.
Good chapter and I agree with skycaptain and let see whats next, thanks!
I’m glad you posted, causing me to go back and read a chapter I didn’t know exsisted. Your style is realistic and sage. I hope Shane listens to Bette’s advice, shoot, I hope Bette listens to her own advice. Yeah, neither one are all bad! Thanks.
This is not good for Bette. Hopefully Tina will not press charges and really think about what she is doing to her and Bette. Shane needs to go in and face the music with Carman. This is easily said than done but they both need to suck it up and do it.
they are right they need to listen each other, both have a good points i hope they can go trough this with the less pain possible.
damn this is about to break me
