    Chapter 1

    When Hope is Lost

     

    Bette wasn’t expecting the incident to happen when it occurred. She had been on her cell phone checking her calendar for the time of her appointment for possible employment. She had just arrived five days prior in New York City to start her life over. Previous to this week, she had lived in LA and had been married to one gorgeous and kind-hearted Tina Kennard, her soul mate, or so she had thought. Her heart still couldn’t understand what had happened to their relationship.

     

    Since she had arrived in New York City, she had wandered around the city trying to get her bearings and figure out her next move. Every time a couple went by her it made her think of her former life with Tina… her thoughts since her arrival had been filled with memories of her former life on the opposite coast with her wife and her extended family members. Her mind held many years of fond memories of their connections and adventures.

     

    Today she caught herself mid-stream in her thought process and felt strongly that her relationship with Tina had sadly ended because after almost three months of her trying to apologize for kissing another woman she had continued to receive the same reaction from her wife… anger and rejection. Bette decided that she should probably start thinking of her as her ex instead. After all, she had submitted the papers with her attorney to dissolve their partnership. She felt her heart ache strongly with that continued realization.

     

    Tina and she had been married for seven years and had tried to start a family but had lost their baby boy at four months due to a miscarriage. Looking back on it now, it had devastated them both and unfortunately, both women had been so unprepared for his death emotionally. Bette knew that their relationship had been on rocky ground before the moment of the baby’s conception but both women had ignored that fact and felt strongly that having a family would help bring them back together, but it couldn’t be further from the truth. After the miscarriage, they each took a different route to try and reconnect to the other, but in the end after the loss, it didn’t work as they both had stopped their communication with the other.

    3. I know Bette’s life in NY is off to a bad start, but I hope things improve. The punishment isn’t fitting the crime. I’m most disappointed in Kit, never mind her friends and Tina. Bette deserves a little better… something to restore her hope. Thanks

    9. Welcome and well done! Congrats on getting this posted, I know it’s nerve racking. I feel badly for both women in your story, clearly they are both in a tremendous amount of pain. The friends and sister though…just want to slap them silly! :-) Thank you for taking the step to share your writing with us, I look forward to the next chapter.

    11. I don’t see a reason of why Bette and Tina should ever get back together. It’s really depressing of how Bette is depicted here. Tina and the gang are dicks for treating Bette that way. Bette needs to find happiness but it shouldn’t be with Tina. Stay in NYC Bette and don’t give WeHo another thought. Great start bumsue, you live up to your name ✌😁 glad to see get the support you need. You have my support like Bartles&James 🍻

    16. This story and As One Door Closes are great. And, I want more.

      How does the family manage life? What happened to Ozzie’s leukemia.

      Please . . .
