CHANGE/ CHAPTER THIRTEEN
It was a surreal feeling and it was hard to believe that it was actually happening. Bette tried not to pull ms Kennard closer, altough her entire body screamed for her to do so. She knew she couldn’t, it would ruin the moment and the ‘relationship’ she had built with her teacher so far.
Another sob escaped her and she felt ms Kennard’s arms tightening around her. She hesitated and then brought her hands to ms Kennard’s waist. Tina had placed her hand on the back of Bette’s head, urging her to rest it in the nape of her neck. Bette took a deep breath. Ms Kennard’s smell was overwhelming, something she wanted to be able to remember forever. She wished she could catch it in a bottle so that it would never fade from memory.
They stood there for what seemed like hours, but could only have been a couple of minutes. Ms Kennard held Bette at arm’s length, inspecting her face.
“Are you alright?” she asked softly. The worry in her hazel eyes could not be anything but genuine and heart-felt.
“I… I guess so. I’m really sorry.”
“Shh, it’s okay. You’re only human and what happened… you don’t deserve it, Bette. Your father may have his own opinions on gay people, but it doesn’t entitle him to throw his daughter out of the house, especially not when she’s under age.”
Ms Kennard held Bette’s trembling hand, subconsciously stroking it softly with her thumb.
“Where do you live now?”
“I’m living with Emily momentarily, until I find something else. I can’t stay there forever, I can’t even pay her parents for having me in their house and feeding me. I hope to find an after-school job quickly.”
Ms Kennard shook her head. “It’s just not right. I wish I could take you in my apartment myself, but for all the obvious reasons I can’t.”
“There’s something I have in mind, though. I have this older sister, Kit. She’s 11 years my senior and she left to live on her own as soon as she was legally allowed. I haven’t had contact with her ever since, Melvin did not want me to. I’ll just… try and find her, I guess. She once sent me a card to let me know she had moved and it was in the area, so with any good luck she still lives there.”

Thank you…this is progressing into such a good story..I like the tensionbetween them.
Bette knew it. She was totally in love with ms Kennard… poor Bette, but a very nice update!
Hi, dear sweet G! We were missing this story. We can feel Bette’s agony and joy, at the same time, while sharing time apart with Ms Kennard. We like Bette’s vulnerability and kind heart. No doubt that Ms Kennard doesn’t want any gossip to be spread in school, about her going out with a student. However, we remember that while studying in Highschool, there was nothing wrong about a student going out with a teacher, or even teachers offering a drive home. It was viewed as “normal”. Perhaps after listening to several ugly stories on the media, the concept has changed. However, we love the candor that both have. It is endearing. Also, it is likely that Ms Kennard is genuinely worried about Bette’s grades and low performance. Ah, can’t wait for more. Hahaha PPS Hugs & kisses on both your cheeks. – Lu & Marsh (Proud Salsa Aunties to the ever loving JC and Eunichick and Tias Adoradas to Patpez)
