Three marriages. Three divorces. Tina never got the chance to meet the right man. She felt sometimes, she was loved with that lack of depth that people nominated currently as love. She also lived that boring, ego battle, miserable routine, full of isolation, people used to live naturally and have the guts to call, marriage. Marriage could not be this tragedy. She kept telling her.
Until now all social conventions have proved to Tina she was wrong when she first adapted herself and surrendered to the system, to the establishment, to the political/social power of a particular state of faith. You can nominate anything; because whatever you may call it is the guilt and sin, the unreasonable infliction of unhappiness used to domesticate the free spirit of life.
Her life was a constant learn and conquer. Sometimes Tina lost, sometimes she won and because of all those experiences, good and bad, different, Tina liked to be the one who she was. It was really comfortable to live in her skin. If her life was for rent, she would buy it for sure. She chuckled, smiling to herself.
Tina was also a rational human being. Not that this meant she didn’t possess a heart. It’s just that when you become a mother at 18, everything changes.
After she graduated at high school.
That’s when Tina, for the last time, did something without really thinking in her life, rationally. Her baby girl deserved that. At 18 years old, Tina gave birth to Madison. At the age of 18, Tina had gathered all her forces and became a college student, a worker and a mother. She liked to think that she was an absolute success in a lot of issues and aspects of her life. Love? "Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song. A medley of extemporanea. And love is a thing that can never go wrong; And I am Marie of Romania"Tina always thought to herself.
Laugh and play was the better way she knew to moan for something she had already met, but foolishly, cowardly, let it go. Smoothing the feeling, takes the memories weight.
Her baby girl, now got 22 years old, found herself in the art world. A dedicated and intelligent art student.

This is looking interesting, but please tell me Madison does not end up with Bette.
OK this is something else, please post soon!
By far the most enticing first chapter of the year….it could go anywhere. PPS but before chapter 2 of this one, get the two chicas over in your other story together they are drying up with all the serious talking;-)
Braz, new story?? Brilliant! Love the beginning. Definitely keeping my eye out for this :) thanks for sharing, babe. Keep it up xx
LMAO with that beginning : don’t know exactly where you go with this one, but I think it will could be reaaally interesting ;-)) — I agree with bombass though, “a little less conversation, a little more action…” please… keep going (3 stories at a time could be hard to juggle with, though, hmmm ?…) — and what an Indonesian cigarette brand is doing here, could you tell me ??? Just hope to read you very very soon, dear…
Oh please don’t go where I think your gonna go.. It would be incestual..
Madison with Bette…seems like incestuity of the mind (yes, I created a word – your word-weaving influenced me). And I did check out Maria Rita. Thanks!
Braz, this has me intrigued, but please don’t tell me Bette will be Madison’s first???
Outstanding my dear friend. I remember proofing this over the weekend, and thinking to myself “Why oh why does this woman think she needs another set of eyes or an opinion?” You are FABULOUS Braz. You have such a deep, sensual and creative mind. Your zest for life and your passion that stirs from deep within you comes through in every single word that graces the story you present to us. It’s always a pleasure to read you work Braz. Thank you for writing so many stories for the site. ((((HUGS ))))
I’m with coop. Madison & Bette = no fucking way. I’m hoping that by learning about love it means Madison will witness her mom and Bette falling in love.
Sounds promising and full of future thrilling developments! Go for it! Keep unveiling the details. You are doing absolute great, with your talent and creativity. PPS
No you didn’t!
This should be interesting!!
Aah, dear Braz, a new jewel of yours ?? Here I am, already waiting the chapter 2 – and wondering which will be the link between our favorite two and Indonesian cigarettes ! ^_^ *** I love the way you placed your characters in a commun crossroad in this time of their lives – very successfull lives on a strictly life’s experiences and professional level but secretly haunted by a regret… Amazingly, this lovely Madison seems like a young Bette in a lot of points – and especially about Art. No doubt these two beautiful minds will meet – perhaps even collide ! – , ultimately bringing a pretty life-altering reunion of the two former lovers. From now, I’m hooked on this new story : more, please ! ^_^ Dear Braz, you’re really great ! Very fondly – A.
Oh, I forgot a thing… No wonder Madison’s father was an Afro-American : was it a way to keep something of Bette through an affair that obviously directly followed their break-up ? *wink*
Very nice Braz! Is the love Madison learns about between T&B? If it is between Madison and Bette, I don’t think I can go there! LOL! Great start! More please!
This is interesting and like it!
