“Mama, didn’t you hear me. I said I’m not leaving you.” She looked at Bette curiously. Suddenly not sure that Mama really understood what she had said slowly and patiently. “You don’t have to thank me it was my idea.”
“What I meant is thank you for wanting to stay with me.” Bette corrected and could not help the smile that crossed her face as she contemplated her irresistible, headstrong daughter.
Tina returned about twenty minutes later assured that Angelica had fallen asleep. Angelica once she was assured that Tina was indeed staying the night promptly went to sleep. Tina was not hopeful that she would be able to deal with the other Porter so easily.
Tina took the liberty of raiding the kitchen certain that Bette had eaten little if anything. She was a very thin and pregnant woman, she needed to eat often. Bette was a light eater on the best of days when she was upset or stressed she ate only out of necessity. Tina was sure if it weren’t for Angelica there would be no food in the house. Angelica had a healthy appetite and that alone forced Bette to be better about food than she naturally was.
She fixed a plate of fruits and cottage cheese. It would be a start. Food was grounding and Bette needed all the anchoring she could get. She poured her a glass of Soymilk to wash it all down. She would get some nutrients into her one way or another.
Bette watched as Tina brought the tray out to the terrace. The flash of pain that crossed her eyes was unmistakable. Tina could tell for a brief moment she forgot the woman approaching her was not Rosanna. Tina set the try down on a nearby table.
“When did you last eat Bette?” Tina looked at her pointedly.
Bette did not meet her gaze. “I’m not sure.”
“Bette you are eating for two now. You must take care of yourself and Rosanna’s child.”
Bette stiffened in response to the criticism. Tina was right she had to take care of herself for the sake of the baby. “I don’t seem to be able to do anything right these days. I would love to just disappear for awhile.”

I am really enjoying this story. I love how Tina is there for Bette, and she feels close enough to Tina to except comfort from her. They are great as friends, but even better as a couple. Hopefully Tina can help her raise her child and be more than just a friend in the near future.More please.
Damn….you got me crying again! I just love Tina. I’m glad Angie called her. Bette needs some good old TLC for awhile and Tina’s just the one to give it. PPS!!
It’s interesting to hear her say that she lost her love and life. I wonder what the transition is going to be like with Tina. Interesting story.
Bette’s got a great support system in Tina and Angie. Still such a sad story, but hopefully Bette’s starting to come to grips with her grief. Excellent, kelika, thanks for the post.
Enjoying your story, as always. As much as I love a good tibette story, I can’t see Tina getting back into that relationship after Bette chose Rosanna….even a sweetie like Tina has her limits.
What an excellent story! Bette’s sadness is palpable and authentic….not treacly at all. I love how Tina has taken command and is totally there for support and love. PPS.
I second azmama’s comment about Bette’s sadness being so palpable and authentic. It’s simply devastating to lose someone like Bette has in this story. I hope Tina continues to support Bette while allowing her to grieve. Great story.
I am really loving this story. Angie is as stubborn as her Mama. I cannot wait to see what kind of role Tina will have when the baby is born. Thanks for the chapter.
Great post kelika…I agree with lucybelly! PPS
All I can say is that I’m glad Bette has Angie and Tina to take care of her and the baby. We see that this is hard on Angie, but it has to be very hard on Tina to watch Bette fall apart knowing how much she still loves her, but has to maintain some boundaries in expressing her love. Great story K.
Enjoying this story very much but I want to see these two back together with Angie as a family and with the new baby of course.
Damn poor Rosanna and Bette, glad Tina is there to help Bette go through this!
This MUST be really hard for Tina becuz we know from the story that you wrote T was still very in love & wanting B back but B chose Rosanna in 1 version….did I get that right? And now its T who has to pick up the pieces…poignant, devastating to lose your woman, believe me I know!!!! As usual u write beautifully and tell a a tragic story wonderfully…thank you…I’m waiting for the next post patiently…
Very sad and wonderful story. I just all are happy in the end. Thanks PPS
In Tibette stories involving a pregnancy, Tina is invariably the pregnant one so it’s refreshing to see Bette in that role instead. Tina and Angie are a wonderful support system, and I can hardly wait to see how the Tina/Bette dynamic evolves. I’m addicted to this story!
man Bette is a mess, she better pull herself together for that baby!
