A Choice Is Made Chapter 63
Kit: There is no love like the love of Bette Porter. If you blow it again, don’t bother coming to me as I will not want to hear it.
David: I get it and I won’t blow it again. We had a great day and Peggy Peabody made a surprise lunch for them at the apartment. I ate plenty and Tina even packed me a plate for the road.
Kit: Oh, that’s great David. I’m glad they let you join them and be sure to return Tina’s plate. If you’re lucky she may refill it for you.
David: I can only hope! Alright we just pulled up to Penn Station. I’ll call you soon Mom.
Kit: I love you son.
David: Love you too Mom. Tell Jean I said hello and thanks.
Kit: I will.
Back at the apartment Angelica does wake first from her nap.
Tina: Be right back.
Tina goes to change Angelica and brings her to their bed.
Bette: Hey Boo did you have a good nap?
Angelica: Good. Play?
Bette: What do you want to play?
Angelica: Play wif Sam.
Bette: Sam isn’t here right now baby. You’ll see Sam at school tomorrow.
Angelica gets a sad face and begins to cry.
Angelica: Play wif Sam.
Tina: Baby no Sam today. Tomorrow you can play with Sam. We can cut some cake and save it for Sam. I’ll bring it the park for Sam and his mommy, Miss Cindy.
Angelica: Park wif Sam?
Bette: Yes tomorrow Boo, OK.
Angelica: OK Momma.
Tina: What do you want to do tonight?
Bette: Well we certainly don’t have to worry about dinner.
Tina: No I think Peggy left us in good shape for that.
Bette: How about we watch Dumbo again later, to put us in the Disney mood?
Tina: Sounds great. Let’s take her to Central park so she can ride the carousel again.
Bette’s cell phone rings before they leave the apartment.
Bette: Hey its Cindy. Hello?
Cindy: OK, the suspense is killing me girl!
Bette: It was granted. I am legally Angelica’s Momma!
Cindy: Ahhhhhh! I am so happy for you girl. Congratulations!
Gerald: Yea that’s just awesome! I cannot wait until I’m in your shoes.
Cindy: Gerald and I want to take you out to celebrate.
Bette: That is so sweet, thanks. We’re really booked up this week, but we’ll see you for the park tomorrow.
Gerald: Well how about we bring dinner tomorrow and we can plan a grown up outing for later?
Bette: Sounds good. We are actually getting ready to take Angelica to the park now. We’re going to play then ride the H-O-R-S-E-Y.
Gerald: Gotcha. Any requests for dinner or shall we surprise you?
Bette: Surprise would be great, but will bring the cake. Peggy threw us a surprise lunch and we have plenty of cake.
Cindy: OK, congrats! We are just thrilled for you.
Gerald: Yea, you must be on cloud 9.
Bette: We are and couldn’t be happier.
They grab a fresh fruit snack then load up the stroller and take a walk over to Central Park. Bette suggests they just play for a while, then ride the carousel just before leaving the park. They’d brought one of Angelica’s balls and had a great time playing with her. Both Bette and Tina relished their time together today. This day has definitely been all about family. Of course Angelica isn’t satisfied with one ride on the carousel and ends up with several rotations. They walk home and have dinner from the feast Peggy had left for them. They decide to finish off the red velvet cake for dessert. After everyone has had their bath or shower they cuddle up on the guest bed and watch Dumbo on the HDTV in the room. Angelica is very talkative during the movie and even remembers seeing the elephant at Disneyland. Both Bette and Tina smile and are now excited to see her reaction to the ride at Disney World in a couple of days. Angelica falls asleep before the movie ends.
Tina: Babe, let’s all just sleep here tonight.
Bette: Sounds good to me T. I’ll set the alarm on my cell phone.
Tina: This time having the baby asleep between us is a very good feeling.
Bette: Yes T, we’ve come a long, long way. Good night.
Tina leans over to kiss Bette good night.
Tina: Good night baby. I love you so much.
Bette: I love you too T.

Great chapters. I loved the way you let Bette and Tina forgive David. He understood what he had done and Bette making it clear she wont tolerate any disrespect ever again. It’s good to see that it is possible to grow together again. Maybe Tina will try with her family again too.
You had me weeping. NYer’s don’t weep, we are strong. But, this was worth it. AWESOME story. I agree with the readers, I LOVE this story. You have done a fantastic job with this. I’m ecstatic that Bette was finally recognized as Angie momma. I am also happy that Bette gave David another chance, BUT, warned him that she will rip him to shreds if he harms Angie in any way. CONGRATS to the Porter-Kennard’s. (Peggy, I am adoptable.) I cannot wait for them to arrive in my new hometown of Orlando. WooooooooHoooooooooo.
Absolutely. Utterly. Perfect. Thank you!
Fantastic chapter and it rights all the wrongs that were done in LA. Bette showed her big heart and love to David and Tina was indeed the bigger person by allowing David into their lives again. David had better follow Bette’s advice because I would not want to see what would happen to him if he forgets and disrespects Tina or the baby. And we have never been allowed to see Bette’s Philly side and I think we really don’t want to either. This is a wonderful story and I have loved every minute of it. However, I thought at one point that the gang was gonna be there, I was surprised that they weren’t. Also thought that maybe they would petition the court to add Porter to Angelicas’ last name. Ssurprised they did not. Fantastic chapter anyway. Thanks for posting all the chapters for us this weekend.

OMG what a lovely day, to have four chapters, perfect chapters at that and the last one being the best of the best so for for this story. This NY’er was weeping too, I think the rating should have been TA (tissue alert). I was crying those tears of joy before David, that just was Angie’s icing on the cake. Loved it. Thank you, Md aka Oma
What a great update. From the courtroom, to David, to the family portrait, etc. I so enjoy this fantastic story!
Great story. You had me in tears today.
Yahooo!! Bette’s Angelica’s legal parent. Love this story. Excellent. Thank you.
Finaly is Bette Angie’s legal mother. I’m happy. And it’s great that David came to his sense. What a wnderful story. I hope to read this lovley story a long time. Thank you
Oooooops where the 12th page’s gone? pmsl. Finally The state recognises Bette as Angie’s mother. So emotional this post is, in any way. Family and friends re so important, I am happy, David was mature enough to reckon its misjudgement, came to apologise and reconnected with the Kennard-Porter family. It has been a very eventful day and I loved every moment. Thank you. PPVS
WOW!!! What an Amazing chapter!!! I am glad Bette is Angie’s legal parent. Glad David was man enough to see what he had done was so wrong. Thank you PPS
And thus Angelica became Angelica Porter-Kennard.
Lwsho…props to the perfect way you handled bringing David and Bette back together…that was brilliant! And I still have yet another chapter to read…JACKPOT!
OMG…. this was absolutely one of the best chapters ever. Bette finally being Angies legal mom, and David, just WOW!!! I love this story!!!! Thanks for sharing your talent!!
