A Choice is Made Chapter 8
Bette: Well, if I’m going to the gym 6 or 6:30, but I’m not heading there tomorrow. So probably 7 and out the door by 7:45; it’s a short walk and I’d like to get in by 8 tomorrow so I can leave early. Hopefully we can catch the Central Park Children’s Zoo tomorrow.
Tina: We went to Central Park on Friday, but we didn’t do the zoo or the carousel. She should enjoy them both. She’ll probably nap like today, so getting ready by 2 or 3 would be fine again.
Bette: You know why don’t I meet you at the Zoo. That way you can spend some time in the park and we can meet at the zoo. I should get there between 2-3 and I think it closes at 5pm, so not a lot of time, but she’s so young whatever we do will be an experience for her.
Tina: Yea that’s fine the doorman will help us with a taxi right? We’ll leave after lunch here. That way she’ll probably sleep in the taxi and be ready when we get to the park and definitely be ready for the zoo.
Bette: Should I make a dinner reservation? Is there anyplace you’d really like to try?
Tina: You know with a little one winging it is probably best. We definitely want to sit inside, I think the smokers have access to the outdoor seats and I’d rather not expose her to that. You know me, I love Thai, but am game for anything.
Bette: I’ll find something, maybe even a good New York diner filled with homemade items.
Tina: That would work for me too.
Bette: Alright fatigue is definitely setting in so I’m going to bed now, night T.
Tina: Night Bette, sleep well.
Monday morning Bette is up by 7am as planned. She takes a few moments to stare at her beautiful baby girl and kiss her before heading off to start her morning routine. By 7:30 she dressed, ready and having breakfast in the kitchen: leftover bagel with lox spread, yogurt and coffee. At 7:40 she knocks lightly on Tina’s door and finds her completely comatose. She leaves the monitor on the dresser along with her card with a note telling Tina to call if she needs anything and to tell Mandy to put her through no matter what. She quietly mutters, have a good day T, exits the room and closes the door slowly. She grabs her briefcase and begins her New York commute and morning routine.

Tomorrow would indeed to an interesting day for our family. – sure sounds interesting!
Lwsho…this was an outstanding chapter. Bette and Tina are taking baby steps back to each other…first civility toward one another…then I’m sure they will have some knock down, drag out words between them, then forgiveness and healing. Lwsho…I sure hope that you will put Humpty and Dumpty back together again!
Thank you for this wonderfully long chapter, and a very sweet and loving story!!
Lwsho, I am loving this story so much. They are certainly making progress one step at a time towards each other. Thanks for writing this. PPVS! :)
Wonderful update! PPS!
Amazing Chapter!!! Tina is showing some patience and I am glad about that. When they do talk I hope they still can be civil to each other and not scream and yell. Thank you I love this story. PPS
OHHHHHHHH this is absolutly fantatic.They are actually talking instead of yelling, listening instead of fighting,working as a team instead of aginst each other. yes I am dncin lol but it wil be betterif they are bak together or working towards this goal lol. love this PPVS
thanks for the long chapter. I am so glad to see them getting along but I have to assume that there will be a bit of strife down the road when they really begin to sort out their problems.pps
That was great and B&T taking baby steps!
Absolutely loving this story, thank you so much
They’re doing pretty well. I’m impressed with them, actually… no sniping, just support. Even broaching the subject of talking about the demise of their relationship went well. Bette’s trying really hard, so’s Tina, but is it all just for Angelica’s sake? We’ll see how their eventual talk goes. Thanks for posting.
Tomorrow sure sounds promising for them. Thank you and can’t wait to read the next chapter. Thank you for this story. Great one :)
You write this story so nicely. I’m looking forward to reading more.
