Helena: So still no idea of Bette’s new job or where she’s staying?
Tina: My guess is she’s with Kit until she moves into her new place this weekend. I don’t know what job she took, maybe just consulting with some local galleries?
Helena: Oh dear, you really don’t know.
Tina: Know what?
Helena: Bette is moving to New York, she got a great job at the Whitney there.
Tina: New York?! You must be mistaken; she never went to New York for an interview. The only trip she took was to DC and as I recall she called to ask permission to bang the Senator, so I doubt she had time to interview there.
Helena: Trust me, I know and you know how I know so the source is iron clad. Mum didn’t hire her, but when asked she gave Bette a glowing recommendation.
Tina: New York? How are we going to raise Angelica if she’s all the way in New York? I didn’t think she’d really leave the baby, I figured once she settled into the new job we’d work something out.
Helena: Are you not listening to her? She told you she’s out. The baby isn’t hers; she’s not going to adopt Angelica. She fully expects you to find a man, get married and give Angie a daddy and the fairytale life you really want. I know that will break her heart, but Tina this woman is gone from your life. Do you really not get that?
Tina: No, I get it, I just don’t understand it. How can she have fought so hard for us to just walk away?
Helena: You’ve told her you want something she can’t give you, she’s not a man. So rather than stand in the way of your happiness she’s getting out of the way. She did the same when you and I were dating, she never uttered a cross word at me while we were dating. I wasn’t nearly as classy. I tried to make her life hell, but she thought I made you happy so she didn’t cause drama. I did that all on my own.
Tina: What are you saying Helena?
Helena: You have been loved the way most of us dream of being loved. Even at this moment Bette loves you.

I don’t know what to say, B&T are killing me. This hurts. Great post
thx for the shout out. tina is really lost!!! wow bring on vegas!! pps.
I agree, Tina is lost. She keeps saying things like Bette only thinks about herself, but this whole thing started because Tina is thinking about herself. They both have to find what makes them happy. Let’s hope that they discover again that it is each other. Thanks!!
Well you did it again Lwsho…that was awesome. I think that Tina is being very defensive because she doesn’t really know what she wants. She may have feelings for men, but inside she really hasn’t let Bette go and she is stunned that Bette has made this decision. She is feeling hurt that Bette could make the decision to leave her and Angelica and she doesn’t want to be the one that is responsible for pushing her into it, so instead she throws the blame onto Bette. It may not be right, but it happens in real life just like that. Bette isn’t right either…she went to the other extreme. My guess is that she will regret her decision in time of leaving her baby. I can’t wait until your next update!
Tina is a small-minded, selfish beotch.
As ever, great denial = terrific conflict and cliff hanger for your devoted readers.
My stars Sho, you’ve got me hanging from the cliff by my fingernails waiting for the cracks to splinter and drop me to my own peril. Glad that Helena told Tina what was going on and also telling Tina about how she caused Bette’s latest actions. Still Tina could not and did not hear what Helena was telling her and still she blames Bette rather than herself. They have both made a terrible mistake and I have a feeling both will pay dearly for their actions. Really hate to see them break up, they are both still in love with each other. They are destined to be together, I just hope they can find forgiveness and find their way back to each other where they belong. Angie needs them both and needs them to be together. So do we. Great update.
Tina doesn’t want to hear some home truths from even someone as non-invested as Helena. Reality will hit soon enough, both when Tina realises Bette’s *really* gone and isn’t coming back, and for Bette when she starts really missing Angie. One thing is certain, I think those two need some time apart. In the meantime, Viva Las Vegas! Thanks for the post.
Great upadate. It’s so sad to see how far apart both Bette and Tina are. And Tina seems to be suddenly on a selfish mode. Sigh!! I hope you’ll sort this out won’t you :) Thank you again!
Maybe I´m biased, but I somehow like the way this story seems to go. Tina needs to take a long hard look at herself. And if they want to save anything between them, they definitely need time apart. Great post.
This is heartbreaking {sniffling in sadness}. Just catching up on reading and happy to come across your story – very well written. Tell granny to take it easy – you’re capturing the voices of the characters and must use such ‘language’ at time for them to remain authentic…{worried now that your granny will come after me for encouraging the occassional curse word and going to hide now!}
I’m really disliking Tina right now! This whole thing started because Tina was thinking about herself and her needs, so how can she say that Bette is only thinking about herself? I think this whole thing is a defense mechanism for Tina because she doesn’t really know what she wants. In time (hopefully not too long) they will both realize pushing each other away was a mistake and find their way back to each other. Great update, even though I’m not happy with the outcome. I’ll stick with you and your wonderful writing! PPS
I’m gonna blame hormones for Tina’s behavior. I think she needs an a-ha moment and then she needs some therapy and then Bette needs an a-ha moment and some therapy too and then they need to get back together once they resolve the crap going on with themselves.
they need to talk and work thing out!
