I’m Her Mother Too…Sequel
Previously….
"T?"
"Yeah?"
"I don’t know what is going on in your life. I don’t’ know why you are out driving at three o’clock in the morning. And, I don’t know why you have had this change of heart…but, come home T. Whatever is going on, I will help you through it… I will be here for you. We’ll figure it out okay? Just come home."
"Really?" Tina asked as relief poured through her body. She would like nothing more than to go back to the house that had been her home for so many years, and have the woman who had been her best friend hold her in her comforting arms. But, she didn’t know how Bette could do that for her after all the pain she had put her through. "You would let me stay there?"
"I am here T. It’s okay…come home."
"Okay…" Tina whispered. "I’m about fifteen minutes away…is that too soon?" Tina hesitated, her heart pounding with anticipation, knowing Bette’s mind must be going a mile a minute trying to comprehend this middle of the night phone call.
"Of course not…please…just come."
And, just like that a sense of calm came over Tina, knowing she had made the right decision.
"Okay," she repeated her earlier response.
"And, Bette?"
"Yeah?" Bette also whispered her response. It was only one word, but it floated through the phone with such reverence.
"Thank you."
Bette closed her eyes and scrunched her face, trying to keep her tears at bay. Willing her voice not to crack, she managed to sound stronger than she felt. "You don’t need to thank me T. Just drive safe, and I will see you soon."
Nodding her head, Tina smiled into the phone. "Okay…bye."
"Bye T," Bette whispered.
After pushing the OFF button on her cell phone, Bette stared at the ceiling, the phone cradled in her hand, not moving a muscle. She wondered what had really happened between Tina and Henry to make her pack up and leave him in the middle of the night. Did he make some smart ass remark about hers and Tina’s relationship? Did he say something about Angelica’s heritage? Feeling herself getting angry Bette took in a deep breath, and then let it out slowly, trying to calm down her rapid heartbeat. Just the thought that he said or did anything to upset Tina made her blood pressure rise…even though she knew she had no right to feel that way, as she had been the cause of so much of Tina’s pain in the past. But, that was in the past, and during the last six months without Tina, Bette had learned a great deal about herself, and how she related to others….especially how she related to the woman she will forever love.

I am glad that you are back. It might help your writers block if you continue this story. It is breath taking and has a light shining in that long darkened tunnel.
Just wrench my heart right out of my chest, Seahurst! Talk amongst yourself, everyone, while I go and get a kleenex. ha ha Thanks!
Hey Sea, we will help you…you write everyday and we will read…gladly read anything you type out….thanks
Lovely lovely chapter – I respect so much your battling through a creative tough patch – we are lucky that you are getting good and advice and perservering .
Hey this chapter was great and I hope there is more than two chapters to this one. I am curious to see what happened with Henry… I hope Bette and Tina can work everything out.
Wow Sea, glad you’re back! Can I send you a chisel or jackhammer, or maybe recommend a sandblaster to keept those pesky ‘blocks’ away so you can post like everyday????
Great you’re back. Keep it coming that was a great chapter.
Well Sea, if that is any indication of writers block…..keep on blocking! I sincerely hope there is more where that came from. I am glad you are among us again…Welcome, with open arms.
So glad you’re back! This story is lovely.
I was so excited just to see your name! Then you give us a post that is perfectly written…that was so sweet and sad. Thanks, Seahurst!
i’m so happy you finally showed up again…i’m waiting anxiously for the next chapter and other stories…anyway we can motivate you? ;)
no evidence of writer’s block there that i could see! awesome Sea!!
Oh gee, that was a heartwarmer. Writer’s block is awful, but you’re winning, so just keep going.Great to see a new chapter from you.
Hey Sea, PERFECT as always … hope you be able to post soon… if not WE WAIT patiently…ok really its impatiently …. honestly continue when you can… hope things are going well!! Thank you!!
Welcome back. Great update, I looking forward to many more.
I lost it at this line: ‘And, as her little fingers kneaded the familiar skin, she saw a clearer version of that same smile playing with her in her dreams.’ Glad to see you back!
glad ur back
Awww how sweet that was! Thanks for writing it. I have to say that I agree with your cousin… Just write … and I will read =) Now, I just have to go out and buy me some of this ‘patience’… cuz I simply want to devour every word of your writing the moment I see it. And, I can’t seem to forget ‘Put it to Your Ear’. It’s had a great impact on me for some reason. But, then again, a lot of your writing does. Thanks for sharing it with us! =) Take care… and welcome back!
you are such a great writer and that was beautifully done…and I could slap Tina silly write now for having kept Angel from Bette…so you’re great for evoking such strong emotions…write a little each day? your cuzzie is so right girl!!! Thanks for listening
Glad to see you back, and now you’ve posted one, the others will flow. Glad you’re continuing this story – even if just to round it off.
Great to see your post! Thanks Seahurst, you made my night!
hey, Sea….Glad to see you back. Everything you write is wonderful. Your “duds” (if there is such a thing) are better than most others best work. keep writing.
I am so glad you are back. I have missed this story. I can not wait to see what happens next. Thank you
That totally brought tears to my eyes… Angelica is so sweet :D I have to say, if you produce this with the W-word (the unpronounceble writersblock) then I sure want to know what you produce without it… Its marvelous sea, I’m hoping for an update soon, but your worth the wait ;)
Great start SeaHurst – But i think theres a lot more that just two chapters here – I want to know what haoppened to make T leave in the middle of the night & I want to see B&T tryingto sort out their problems – B has offered her a seemingly temporary arrangement to get her through this crisis – but surely its going to grow into more & surely thats not going to happen over night – or in two chapters!& How the hell are you & all that – I haven’t ‘spoken’ to you in ages! Felty
Hey stranger, Seahurst you can believe how my heart jumped for joy when I saw that you had posted a new chapter. Weeeeeeeeeee!!! No better way to start a Monday morning. And what a treat it is… The love and desire is palpable between Bette and Tina. I loved the way the Tina is making the moves tentatively at first while Bette is hanging back and following as best she can Tina’s lead. This is a time of adjustment and honesty for both gals. The past is the past and needs to be dealt with so that the present can be free of all hurt and despair and the future can fulfill all dreams and wants. The love is there. Now the understanding, forgiveness and patience are needed to reunite this two halves into a complete and lasting soul. Thank you so much for this morning delight. Please continue as your voice deserves to be heard and appreciated. Many thanks for returning to the fold. Your Loyal Fan. PS :-)
Welcome back…you were indeed missed. You got me all emotional this morning. I feel so happy for Bette, even if her and Tina don’t get back what they had (but we want them to) at least Tina learned that taking Angelica away was wrong and won’t make the same mistake twice. So chip away at that ol writers block and we’ll be here to read it.
Wow Sea it’s great to have you back. Lovely, tender chapter. Hope we’ll see more of you from now. I have hope!
Oh Seas, it’s soooooo good to see you back! You could literally write “twidlly dumb twidly do” and I would still read it! This was a touching chapter! Post soon!
Hey so you needed to hear it from your cousin. Well give them a mighty thank you from all of us. Everyday that sounds so familiar I’ll have to remember that. But today’s from you was anything but shity. It’s sweet, touching and tender. Thanks for putting it togehter.
Well, when you come back, you sure do so with a vengence! Fabulous. Glad to see you back!
Gee, I woke up, raised my sleepy head and found your post. Unlike Angelica, I most definitely did not fall back asleep, but I was almost as pleased. Don’t worry, I won’t attempt to play patticake with your cheek. Your cousin is right, keep going.
Welcome back….Hopefully by the time you work on the next post everything will begin to flow again….But if not we’ll wait.
Hey Sea, sending sweet thoughts your way. Thanks for posting. The flow will come.
Sea, I’ve missed you! Take whatever pace you need. I will read anything you write. Just write! Take care.
yay im glad you are back!! amazing chapter..i really love your stories :D
Hey Sea, glad you are back…Thanks for sharing again…Please post again soon.
I think you are an amazing writer, and sheesh, do i understand the writers block….i am glad to see that you are back…..i hope all of these wonderful comments help boost u out of the frump….ok….well this is a wonderful start…..continue soon please…..im hooked already…….
That was great, love Angie and Bette together. Drag it out will ya.
Oh wow, Sea! Glad that you’re back! Missed your stories. This was so touching and sweet. I think it deserves more than two chapters… certainly would love to see how B&T progress.. And now that you’ve written this great chapter, I’m sure that more wonderful writing would follow… (^_^)
So glad you’re back!
Damn this is amazing and touching and wonderful, you made me cry (happy tears for them). Please continue the story soon and hope to see they happy again as a family. Post soon please, thanks!
I love your posts soooo much. Glad to see you back.
I LOVE how you incorporate the everyday into your drama (i.e. the tea kettle about to wake up the baby). Your observations are so keen and so authentic! Thanks for sharing with us!
Sorry to hear about the writers block, but just remember you’re such a amazing and talented writer – it will all come back (like it did in this post), you just have to be patient. I’m really looking forward to more posts with ‘Put it up to Your Ear’ – I love that story. Take care.
Now that I have so much time on my hands, I get to catch up on my favorite authors. I know I left a brief comment earlier but I felt I needed to say more. This chapter was very touching. Here are two women who know one another but let are much distanced. Two, who seems from your description, wants to make that connection again. And Angelica might just be the one to help them. BTW this is far from shitty. Sea this was very good now on to the next.
Omg the hand on the cheek, then laying back down on Tina shoulders..did you really have to write that I need a moment. .tears* tears****ahh ok I better now..im lost for words on this update. ….just Splendid!
