The Tower Of Learning

I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence, but it comes from within. It is there all the time.

Bette was also curious as to what the compromise made by Tina was. And to whom she had talked to about this "compromise".

Tina: Okay. Lets get outta here.

They said their good byes and slowly but surely left. Bette smiled at Tina as she drove back home… to their home. And once they got home, they were going to catch up on what was missed for a very long time. Especially what Bette missed which was loving Tina.

TBC…

Tina drove Bette home and looked over at her as they were entering the drive way.

Tina: So what is it you want to ask me?

Bette looked at Tina confusedly. Tina just smiled.

Tina: Actually lets go inside for this talk.

Tina got out of the car and Bette mimicked her actions as they both walked up to the house and entered, leading straight into the living room. Tina sat down and patted the spot next to her. Bette slowly approached.

Tina: So, what would you like to ask me?

Bette: I was just curious as to what the compromise was.

Tina nodded.

Tina: Well, you know, certain things that come to you stay for a while and then you lose them or give them away…

Bette looked confused again as her eyebrows pursed.

Tina: I made a compromise that I was going to be given a certain amount of time, before I had to make my way back.

Bette: No.

Bette said simply as she sat back and looked at Tina with a stern expression.

Tina: You have no say in that Bette. It’s Him.

Tina pointed up.

Bette: What are you telling me Tina, that you’re an angel?

Tina: Right now? Yes, I am inhabiting this body for a view of the Earth, that is what angels do and when I go back home I am still an angel. Angel’s are given a purpose, and basically a mission, I have a purpose and I have to keep that secret.

Bette got up and started pacing.

Bette: What kind of sick joke is that for me huh? I get you back for a little bit then lose you again. I mean honestly is that some form of Porter Torture? Is it any wonder why I am not religious because God is a bitch to me. Dammit Tina, when were you going to tell me?
