    Tina takes a look at her gift

    Window of Opportunity

    Chapter 34

    Tina

    To say that the album that Bette presented to me blew me away would be an understatement. Through her actions, daily she is showing me that she can in fact be the person that I need her to be. In the past, she had hurt my feelings too many times by not doing some of the little things that I expected in a relationship. She was always generous and loved to shop for me but those material items were not things that I held close to me. She always made my heart flutter when she gave me a card for no reason or took the time to express her thoughts in a note. It in time went from her voluntarily doing these things to running into the store on her way home to pick up a card on a special occasion. For our anniversary, I would begin weeks in advance looking for the perfect card that held the sentiment I wanted to express. If I found one that was close, I would purchase it. When our anniversary arrived, she would get a card in the morning at breakfast, one would be waiting for her at the CAC and usually one at home in the evening. Yes, it was overboard at times but an anniversary or birthday come once a year and on that day, I wanted to tell her over and over again how much she meant to me,  how much I loved her and how thankful I was that she was a part of my life. I just thought that she didn’t care to do it for me because she rarely initiated nor did she often reciprocate. Her actions tonight dispelled those thoughts.

    I finally am able to see that even if her actions at the time did not show me that she appreciated my efforts, her saving all these memories proved to me that she did. I assumed that there would be many that I would not remember writing and that alone excited me to able to read them again. I had some shame while sitting before reading the album. In as much as I went out of my way to ensure that she had letters, cards and such from  me, I didn’t save the ones that she gave me as she had the ones I had given her. I saved the big things. I, of course had the first note she wrote telling me that she loved me. I also had the card she gave me on our first anniversary. But I also took for granted those things she gave me and thought it would continue so I didn’t save them. Of all the gifts that she has ever given me, this will probably be the one that means the most to me. It is the one that encompasses so much of our past and hopefully a new chapter in our future.

    2. You have just joined an elite group, nag. It may not mean much to you. But to me, it is profound. I have just read the pages of your story bawling my eyes out. Soooooooooo beautiful! “I finally am able to see that even if her actions at the time did not show me that she appreciated my efforts, her saving all these memories proved to me that she did.” Gawd…that ripped my heart out. You had me from the beginning! Because I save everything…everything of sentimental value. Shall I bless you or curse you for making me cry? Don’t know. But thank you for writing! Sooooo much!

    6. NAG are you working on your project? BECAUSE I CAN’T, putting all the things away that need putting away just got caught up short. YOUR FUALT. Now I have to go get the box off the celler stairs that has all those cards and little gifts that have been stored in a drawer over the years and if this story didn’t make me cry, I’m sure your pushin mush my way. Thanks though it is a great and very touching story, you must be a very sentitive person. Md

    7. Beautiful. Not a good idea to read just before I leave for work – now the freeway drivers will have to contend with me replacing my make-up in the rear view mirror!

    10. Loved the letters. I hope that the Kennard’s reconsider their decision to cut Tina out of their lives. It would be nice to see some reconnecting in that department. Also, it would be nice to see Angie have grandparents. I hope that is part of the story going forward.

    13. I realy enjoy every new chapter. It is so great and lovely. I sometimes lougth, I sometimes cry. Thank you for everything. Please don’t stop. I would miss it.

    14. NewAge, you have sprinted into the upper echolons of writer’s on this fanfiction site with this story. The notes, memorabilia, and now the letters have made this such a beautifully loving, romantic and very touching story. You have to be an incurable romantic to write this story, as are so many of us. Thank you for such a lovely story. It is the little things that count in a marriage or relationship of any kind, when two people are very close. PPS

    15. NewAge, some of the writer’s take their stories down after they have completed them, PLEASE NEVER take this one away. This one needs to be read by a lot of people, it would make the difference in so many relationships if the story was read and understood.

    17. Aaaaah. It just keeps getting better, newagegirl! AWESOME chapter! These kinds of letters are the ones you keep in your wallet for years and years and take to your grave! Yeah, I also think Tina’s the braver one, the one with a deeper well of inner strength although Bette always wears the Alpha public persona. And Tina gave up a lot to be with Bette, that’s why she was totally crushed by that affair. But now, they clearly seem to be on the same page. Who wouldn’t fall in love with Bette all over again with all the sweetness, loving and romantic gestures she’s been lavishing Tina of late? Bette’s sweeping Tina off her feet and Tina’s enjoying every moment of it! A million thanks for writing about the famous earring and shedding light on the reaction of Tina’s family to their relationship!!! Wow, I can’t believe you listen let alone pay attention to reader suggestions. :> Would it be too much to hope reading about when they first made love, their favorite vacation spot, their rings and commitment ceremony? Thank you, thank you, newagegirl! And may your Muse continue to inspire you. PPS! :>
