THE L WING
Chapter 220
Narration of First Lady Tina Kennard Porter
Melvin and Kit don’t hang around after Bette goes to sit in the nursery -the mood has been ruined and I guess they both need their own time to process what has happened. My thought is that they really should have been expecting this – Bette is very touchy about her mother – it’s the hardest subject for her. She was 4 years old and for 38 years she has grown up believing that she was not good enough. Becoming a mother herself has – I think – just crystallised those thoughts – she could never walk away from Ella – she knows that for sure – so – how could she have been abandoned ?.
As soon as they go – both upset and concerned for Bette – I sit down over a whiskey and ginger and I think things through. I don’t rush straight into see Bette. I know her well enough to know that she does tend to want to be left alone for some time – not long – never more than an hour – but usually more than 30 minutes. When I finish my drink its been 45 minutes since she went into Ella’s nursery and I know that this is the time where I show her just how much I love her and how I am never going to let her suffer.
She is sitting on the window seat with her knees tucked up to her chest. For some reason it reminds me of when she thought that she would miss seeing Ella being born because of the Afghan summit — hell – Afghanistan – there is no way I can bring the subject up with her while this is going on . She is hugging one of Ella’s teddy bears – it’s the one that Helena gave her. I walk in and first go across and look into Ella’s crib – she is fast asleep on her back arms and legs at all angles. Regardless of how many times we lie her down properly she ends up like this – God I love her. My pride and joy – my daughter — our daughter.

God Bette is so doesn’t deserve this from both of them, but she must understand that they were different people from what they are now, Tina is so good for her. Thanks Ally post soon honey.

HEY Ally, Brilliant to hear you are feeling better adn ready to take on the world. Thnak you so much for this gentle and tender exchange between Bette and Tina and Ella. It is these moments take make life worthwhile. I just love the supportive and caring manner Tina has with Bette here. Tina really is there to look after her. I guess the truth will out but you need those around you to back you up. Just adorable. Loving it all. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.

I’m happy to hear that you’re feeling better Ally. This is such a nice update to your story. Thank you!

Great update Ally, feel better soon! bette will have a clearer head after she cries it all out! :)
awwwwwwwwwwwww.. i love this sweet relationship..ty ally
This is so good!
Glad you are on the mend Ally :) Woohoo…an L Wing update. Poor Bette, all those emotions coming to the surface at once. I’m glad Tina is there to comfort her. Great update. Can’t wait to see what happens next.
Great update! Why so much blame on Kit? Bette’s mom doesn’t really sound like a winner to me.
tina is a saint!!!
Ally good to know to ur feeling better, thanks for a wonderful chapter. Now dat u r feeling better hope to have updates of ur other amazing stories:)PPS
Ally: hope you are feeling better soon. Thanks for taking the time to update this story.
I hurt for Bette so much. I could really feel her pain. I am so glad that she started to cry. She needs to let it out and let Tina comfort her while she does. Great chapter Ally. I’m glad you are feeling better. Hang in there. Looking forward to more.
yay!! Ally’s in the house! loved this chapter… i believe these things happen for a reason, if they had told Bette before, she wouldn’t have had Tina and Ella to comfort her and it would be much worse than it looks now. Please post another chapter soon… whether it’s the Lwing or Love&Pride(or All my Loving, just saying), we wouldn’ object at all… pps!!!!
I am so excited that you updated for us. This chapter was amazing! As always I will be waiting for the next chapter.
