Chapter 64

Previously..

Martin got the cushions and they all made themselves comfortable. Tina settled herself down next to Bette against a wall..

Bette laid her head against the wall and sighed. She was tired.. she just wanted a minute rest..

Tina and Martin looked at her and they smiled. When they locked eyes they laughed out loud and Tina said: ‘go lay down for a minute.. I will wake you up soon okay? Martin will keep me company.. he’s my back-up plan (sticking her tongue out to Martin) for when I have to miss you (winking).

Bette smiled and laid down, but stayed awake.. she wanted to listen to their voices.. their talks.. their stories and she wanted to be a part of them.. catching up.. sharing life.. coming out..

Tina looked at her and smiled. She chuckled and turned her head

‘So.. Mister Martin.. tell me about life.. you grew up huh’ and she smiled knowingly.

Martin sighed, smiled and said: ‘yeah.. life.. pff.. I just take it as it comes you know.. hanging out with friends.. help dad and going to school in between’

Tina laughed and said back: ‘yeah right, you’re THE popular guy in school of course huh’

‘oh yeah I am’

It sounded so stupid that they heard Bette choke.

‘What? You don’t belief me?’

‘uhmm yeah I do belief you actually. The way you came up to me at the airport.. Just the normal way to act if you are some kinda guy like that..’

Tina completed her girlfriend by saying..

‘yeah she’s right.. we’ve those creatures too at our school.. but hey, it’s fine.. Because you are my cousin, and since I know you very very well.. I see right through you..’ She pointed to him in a funny way.

‘She can, it’s a good, but scaaaaary feeling, she does that to me too’ Bette said and she teased Tina by pinching her side.

Tina looked at her. Gave her the irritated eyes and Bette quietly told her to continue..

‘Sooo.. wanna tell me your girlfriends name?
