Springtime in New York – 2
Previously
Bette’s composure was lost, she was shocked, overjoyed and overwhelmed – her heart did a little summersault… she spent some moments just returning Tina’s intense gaze until her mind started to function again. Bette took a deep breath, squared her shoulders and gathered her senses as best she could. She tapped Jodi on the shoulder and signed that she was going to go say hello to someone she knew. Bette turned away from the group and with a smile on her face that she hoped belied her nervousness walked towards Tina.
____________________________________________________
Bette and Tina stood a respectable distance away from each other. Neither was quite sure what to say or how to greet their ex-girlfriend, partner, of 7-years. Both had imagined seeing each other once again, but neither was prepared for the actual event. An onlooker would have seen two women that were half smiling and looking rather shocked and nervous all at the same time.
Bette spoke first.
“It’s good to see you.”
“It’s good to see you too.”
“What are you doing here?”
“I could ask you the same thing, I live here…”
“I know, but it’s 4:00 in the afternoon in the middle of Central Park…” Bette decided to change her approach. “I’m giving a tour of the sculpture exhibit for some CU art students. I’m the Dean at the School of the Arts.”
Tina saw that Bette was trying to be civil so she gave a little.
“I missed the opening so I decided to leave work early today and check the sculpture out and it’s a beautiful day.” Tina couldn’t help smiling thinking about the beauty of the day.
“Do you know Peggy Peabody personally? Her foundation used to fund the CAC and now she’s a major donor of mine at CU.”
Bette was surprised that Tina had been invited to the opening and unfortunately her brain wasn’t firing on all cylinders.
“How could I forget Provocations, Bette?” Tina was slightly annoyed at Bette’s arrogance. “She owns the studio I work for, she’s the Chairman of the Board, her daughter, Helena, runs the day-to-day – so-to-speak.”
“You know Helena Peabody?” Bette couldn’t believe it.

I’ve been waiting for this update and it has certainly lived up to expectations. Great stuff, and I’m curious to see where you intend to take it.
Definitely glad to see more of this. So, will Bette realize what all she’s missing on out, other than cheesecake? Can’t wait to see what’ll be coming next with this one.
Excellent story. Can’t wait till you post again.Feel well.
Ahhh…a story with atmosphere and substance! Love it!
Do you think that Jodi could hook up with Helena? I would be happy with that one. Let Bette and Tina spend some more alone time together.
Love that you are reposting and adding more to it. Tina still loves Bette or they still love each other/ post soon.

Just lovely, been waiting for this one, so happy to see another chapter. Of course, they still love each other, They both still feel the spine tingling that they always felt for the other. Glad you’re back. PPS
I have been trying so very hard to concentrate and finish this comment, telling you how much I love your story BUT I get distracted with thoughts of Veniero’s cheesecake. I’m going to have to eat a few of those 100 calorie snack packs before I read the next chapter. Thanks for your story and for the affection for the City that shines through.
Great update, despite the civility I believe Tina stills has a lot of anger, so I hope that wherever you take us she finds a way through it. I look forward to seeing the next great chapter. :)
Hi, Hope u r okay. I get so excited when u post; don’t know where this is going. I wonder after all this time if T would even have feelings other than friendship for Bette. Nevr mind, I’m in for the ride. Thx.
Great to see another chapter of this story. I like the line ‘I was going through a lot myself then’ – can we expect a mini version of Bette to appear??..I hope so!! PPS
