A Single Mom Meets Someone New Ch 72

Bette and Tina slept wrapped around each other as they had for the last 6 years. 

“Mommy!” A child yelled from the other room. 

“She’s calling you” Tina pushed Bette. 

“Uhh.” Bette moaned. 

“MOMMY!!!” 

“Bette!” Tina pushed Bette this time about out the bed. Bette moved slowly and pulled on some clothes. She stumbled down the hallway.

“Ouch Shit!” Bette kicked a toy down the hallway. 

“MOMMY!!!!” Bette walked into a pink princess room. Where a 4 year old girl with beautiful blond curls sat on her bed. 

“What’s the matter honey?” Bette sat on the bed next to her. 

“I had a bad dream.” She said. 

“What about?” Bette pulled her into her lap. 

“I don’t wanna go on the plane tomorrow.” She mumbled. 

“Why honey you’ve been on a plane before?” Bette asked. 

“I don’t want to go see Gillian. I want to stay here.” She said. 

“I thought you were excited to see Gillian.” Bette brushed a curl out of the girls face. 

“No!” The little girl jumped out of Bette’s lap and took off running. 

“Victoria come back here.” Bette chased her down the hallway tripping on yet another toy. Victoria jumped onto the bed and quickly climbed on top of Tina.

“What’s going on?” Tina asked. 

“Somebody doesn’t want to to go tomorrow.” Bette sat down on the bed. 

“Well you’re going and no crying about it.” Tina said.

“Tee.” Bette said. 

“No there is no negotiating we’re going all of us. We haven’t seen Gillian in almost 2 years. We’re going.” Tina looked at the clock. 6:17 am. She groaned and got out of the bed. 

“Mama is right we all are going.” Bette said. Victoria huffed and slid off the bed. She slammed the door on her way out. 

“I swear that child.” Tina said. 

“I know.” Bette said. 

“I love her but somehow we have let her get spoiled rotten.” Bette sat on the bed and smiled. 

“I believe the therapist said it was over compensation for losing Gillian.” She said.
