Suddenly an Angel – Chapter 5.5
Saturday evening
The three women and the baby had spent the rest of Saturday strolling around town. In the evening, when the crib that Christina Kensington had kindly arranged to be delivered the same day, they had spent a couple of hours re-arranging the guest room. The bed had been dismantled and put away at the far end of the room, being replaced by the beautiful crib.
So now they sat to have dinner.
“So, about tomorrow” Bette started “I don’t think I can make it”
“What? Oh come on Bette!”
“I’m serious Alice, there’s a baby in the house now” Bette said, taking a sip of water
As if on cue, Angelica gurgled from the high chair
“Cute” Alice smiled at Angie before taking another bite “So that means you’re not allowed to have fun anymore?”
“No, but I just—”
“You’re just a pussy”
“No I’m not. And watch your language; I don’t want Angie learning words from you.”
“But seriously Bette, why are you not going to the fashion show? You know Shane will have Angie and she’ll be safe”
“Yeah” Shane added “Bette you know I wouldn’t do anything to harm her”
“I want her to get used to me, I don’t want her to feel like she’s been abandoned somewhere with somebody”
“But it’s SHANE!” Alice lifted her hands, exasperated
“I KNOW” Bette stressed her words. Her friends didn’t understand, they just didn’t. And she couldn’t blame them for that. Bette sighed. How could she explain the tug at her heart she felt with Angie? Or that incredible yet terrifying feeling of swelling in her heart? But she did realize that she was being a little too much. She knew Shane would take care of the baby
“We’re not staying too late are we?”
“Not if you don’t want to, and you can have Shane on the phone every 30 minutes if you want to. Not sure Fatty would appreciate it, I certainly wouldn’t but-”
“Alice. Stop talking” Bette said before getting up to clear her plate

I’m glad you brought this back. I can’t wait to read the rest of it. PPS
The book is called “Love You Forever” by Robert Munsch. I first heard about it when I was a kid. My mom was helping with a book fair at my school and told me that one of the other volunteers was reading it and crying. I may have read the whole thing once I’m not sure.
that’s right Lamentamini, the book is indeed Love You Forever, by Robert Munsch, here’s a link: http://www.rogerknapp.com/inspire/loveforever.htm will post when possible, late insomnia nights are prooving to be good for my writing:) thanks for your comments!
Beautiful scene of Bette and Angie in the rocking chair. They have bonded in only way a child and mother could.
I’m so glad to see this story back. Please post soon. I want Bette to meet Tina!
Welcome back! Have missed this story. Great chapter! Thank you.
Great – keep it coming, please ;-)
Very sweet. Thanks for posting! :)
That was very loving and sweet. Loved it. So, what is the name of the book, please? So Ms. Christina Kensington is not coming back, does that mean we will get Christina Kennard, hopefully? I liked her and she seemingly liked Bette and vice versa. Will she appear and tell Bette that her name is actually Kennard and she just uses Kensington to keep undesirables at bay and from looking her up and bothering her? Hope this is the case. Thanks for posting. PPVS
Glad you are back.PPS
