Chapter 42
The ladies shared a kiss and gave each other a smile.
“T, remember I’m here. No matter what happens. We’ll get through this. Okay?”
“I know Babe, I love you.”
“I love you more, good luck.”
“Thanks, Babe.”
Tina turned and got out of the car and gave Bette a small wave. Bette waved back and drove slowly down the street. Tina turned and faced the house. The home she’d grown up in, the home she’d broken her parents hearts in. Tina shook her head and tried to put that thought out of her head. She walked resolutely toward the door. She rang the bell and tried the door. It opened.
“Mom, Dad…Are you home?”
“Chrissy, is that you?”
“Yeah, Dad it’s me.”
Tina’s father came walking in from the kitchen and gave his daughter and big bear hug.
“Chrissy, what are doing here? Is everything alright?”
Tina gave her father a smile.
“Everything’s fine Dad. I just had a few more days off and thought I’d surprise you with a short visit.”
Tom Kinnard pulled his daughter to him and laughed.
“Oh, that is just wonderful. Your mother is out back. Let’s hope she doesn’t have a heart attack.”
The pair laughed and walked arm in arm toward the back of the house.
Tina relished the feel of her big burly father holding her. It seemed to give her strength. They had always been close. Her love of sports and the outdoors had always drawn them together but it was more than that. Her father possessed a natural love for life, a quick wit and the personae of a cheery Irish Fire Chief that loved everyone and who everyone loved made spending time with her father one of Tina’s favorite things to do on earth.
Just before they opened the door to the patio, Tina turned toward her father and spoke quietly.
“Daddy, I love you.”
Tom Kinnard, looked down at his little girl and pulled her in for a hug.
“Chrissy, I love you too, that never changes you know that.”
They separated and opened the door.
“Well Annie, look what I found?”
Tina’s mother turned in her chair saw her daughter and quickly jumped up.
“Christina, what on earth are you doing here? What’s wrong?”

Can’t wait to see how they react to Bette! PPS
Hey D&A, Loved the stunned and shocked response from Tina’s parents. Her father’s line “Are you pregnant?” had me LOL. Too funny. Can hardly type as tears roll down my cheeks. What was great to read was how Ann and TOm rationalized their daughter’s emotions and whole being then invited her lover to their house. This shows an openess and caring nature. Having a contented and happy child is their ultimate aim rather than one who conforms to the hetero lifestyle. I am sure that sparks will fly when them meet Bette. I just can’t wait so please continue real soon. Your Loyal Fan. (Yes, still chuckling…)
DNA! You did not just leave it there…pass me the whiskey!!!
oh i can not wait for them to meet Bette.I love this story, Tinas parents will be cool, i hope.
Oh are they in for a treat. I believe when they meet the gorgeous Porter, they will be in awe of her beauty and they will see just how much she loves Tina. It’s written all over her face and her actions always. They will see and feel the force of their love and will not be able to deny it. Can’t wait to see what happens next. Thanks for posting.

That was goooood!
There is always PFLAG, the PTA for gays and lesbians LOL. Never too late to get involved mom and dad. Thanks for the post Dazed, awesome as usual.
At least, Tina’s parents have negatively taken the news lol, because parents????? they’re most of th time sucks pmsl. I am hppy for Tina that her parents are wiling to give it a shot and make sure Bette love s thir daughter. I am confident Bette willknock them out for sure lol. PPVS
It seems like it’s going well. Her parents love her and who can turn down Bette’s charm. Thanks
That was fantastic, D. Wait till dad takes a look at Bette………boo-yaa. Even, mom, noticed how Tina reacted when she spoke about Bette. D, let’s see some Irish sparks fly, but at in the end love all around. please post the next chappy soon.
A truly great chapter ! I love the very realistic way you depict the parents’ reaction : one can easily see they’ll put their love for their daughter above anything else, but at the same time it’s a huge concept to digest and, my, isn’t it usual for the old generation after all ? As a man, and an obviously sensitive and sweet one, Tom will certainly be stunned by Bette’s gorgeous appearance and so polite and brilliant attitude. I think it will be harder for Annie to accept her, until she’ll fully realize how deeply her Tina is loved. Dear author, you so perfectly paint this scene, I’m more than ever hooked by this masterpiece of a story you created ! Thank you so much for the gift – I mean it. With all my reader’s gratitude and true joy – A.
I can’t wait for them to meet Bette! I just hope Tina’s dad doesn’t drink too much and say something inappropriate…
Well that went a LOT better than it could have, especially after the revelation with Joe. I think most parents would be praying it was mid-life crisis.
PHOOEY more please…….I cannot wait until they meet Bette and see them both together…they will get it !!!! great update
A couple of glasses of Irish whiskey will kind of numb some of their pain. Then they’ll meet Bette and they will love her. PPS.
Wow! Great update. Can’t wait to see what happens when they meet Bette. Thank you :)
