A Choice is Made Chapter 9
Bette: I can do that, thanks.
Hilda: Do you want to do this again next week?
Bette: Yes, I think that makes sense. Tina and Angelica will be gone by then.
Hilda: What is the issue with seeing Angelica for her birthday?
Bette: Well, it seems having her celebration at home makes the most sense. I’m just not ready to set foot in the house again, you know? She was there with him. I even told her I’d stay with Kit over Christmas.
Hilda: Did Tina say she wanted to have a party at home?
Bette: No, but I think the girls and especially my sister would want to be there for that. Tina says I can decide, it isn’t up to them.
Hilda: Tina is right. You decide how you want to spend Angelica’s first birthday. The family can have cake with her anytime.
Bette: As it turns out her birthday is on a weekend so I could easily fly out for it, but I’m not ready to be in the house.
Hilda: California is a big state, I’m sure you can find somewhere to celebrate.
Bette and Hilda wrap up their session. Tina and Ellen have a shorter telephone session at the same time.
Ellen: So you’ve been in New York since Friday and with Bette since Saturday?
Tina: Yea, I didn’t plan to attend the show, but intended to see the exhibit to support her that way. I had hoped to get in touch with her in office during the week so she could see Angelica, fate blew that plan out of the water.
Ellen: Do you think fate has a plan for you?
Tina: Well, I don’t want to rely on fate alone, but hey it’s been good to me this weekend. Angelica is just so happy and has taken to Bette like they were never separated. I prayed I hadn’t hurt my baby, and it appears that my efforts to keep her familiar with Bette worked. She saw and recognized Bette first. She called her Momma, Bette and I were both startled.
Ellen: Well it seems the mother daughter tie has been restored, congratulations.
Tina: Thank you, it‘s been great, we’ve even made plans for the holidays, but still deciding what to do for her first birthday in October.

Date night? Presumptuous much, T? Your writing is really great, but your Tina upsets me. After how long she made Bette beg after Candace, it seems like she’s expecting to have Bette just give her a chance so easily, when she was so much more hurtful towards her. I hope they make it, but only for Bette and Angie’s sakes, not for Tina, who doesn’t deserve such a great partner
I’m with jikes. It seems Tina is thinking Bette will cave and things can go back to the way she (Tina) wants it. Hope Bette hangs tough and helps Tina realize that the degree of pain she put Bette through can’t be undone by a smile and a “sorry”. Thanks for posting tonight – such an unexpected treat! PPS.
Will be interesting to see what happens from here…. thanks for writing it!
Well, I liked the fact that they are talking honestly and civily. There is nothing to be gained by two people who still love each other artificially holding up barriers. Each of them “earn” there way back to each other by being honest with themselves and honest with each other and create new rules between them to move forward. You are telling your story very well Lwsho…I am really enjoying it.
Great story. At least they are both open to the possibilty of working thing out. An as in real life it’s good to be careful to work through issues that have been allowed to destroy a realtionship. It’s good to see that being played out in this story. A day at a time.
at least they are talking. Tina really hurt Bette, especiay when she had Josh in their house that was meant. But their need each other. just love yur story. PPVS
love this.. and baby steps is good… i know they are going to make it.. pps
That was great and can’t wait to see more !
The road back is bumpy and eraught with potholes and turns; B needs T and vice versa.
Another great update – thank you :) Can’t wait to see what happens next. Thank you for this story :)
I hope the open communication continues and things stay positive. Please post very soon!
I’m glad they’re starting to talk about what happened. It feels like Tina is talking the brunt of their breakup. It takes problems with both partners for things to get as bad as they did and I don’t think we’re seeing Bette’s role. I guess the fact that Bette up and left without communicating her thoughts and intentions with Tina is an indication of how withdrawn she was from the relationship which I think Tina sensed. She is being portrayed as having only good intentions by making her move but I think she had some selfish/revenge type motivations as well. Maybe through their continued discussions and their therapy sessions some of these things will come to light and she’ll start taking some of the responsibility for the demise of their relationship. Then they can really move forward in healing.
Amazing Chapter!!! B&T talking is always good. I am a frim beleaver that it takes two to kill a marriage and two to fix it. I hope that B&T make in your story and Tina will move to N.Y., but she needs to give it time and alot off it. Thanks PPVS
