A Final Dream – Chapter 9
Her mouth is a thin stripe and she has a stern look in her eyes. I don’t care if she’s mad, I don’t care if her pride is hurt. I don’t care if I embarrassed her – nobody’s here anyway.
“I’m going to my room,” I say, heading for the stairs.
“You are not going to run away.”
“I have homework to do.”
“Well, you should have done that before going over to your friend’s place – if that is where you have been.”
“So you want your friends to think I am a bad student? What would they think of you?”
My mother hesitates, this always works. It’s a bit below the belt and I am aware, but I don’t care one bit. She’s exaggerating again and I can’t stand that.
“That is emotional black mail, Tina, and I will not have it.”
I am about to jump out of my body of irritation. I hate it when she comes up with this. I can’t hear those words anymore. I decide to change the subject.
“I have a weekend job in the Laurelwood Market.”
“Don’t think you can escape this. I will have a conversation with your father about your attitude towards your parents. You have to learn to respect us.”
“Did you have this conversation about Ken?”
My mother looks surprised. “No, why?”
“Well, it’s not like he’s very respectful towards you guys. I mean, I get it that he’s in the army and it’s hard and dangerous, but really. He leaves his trash everywhere for me to clean up and when he is home, he just does whatever he wants. He never appreciates what you do for him. Like the first night he was back home. You made his favourite dinner, you made his favourite dessert and you had a present for him. Instead of staying home, he went to one of his parties. He comes home drunk, pukes all over the place so you can clean up instead of doing something you really like, like reading a book. How respectful is that?”
She has that stern look on her face again, but I also see a little bit of hurt. Ken is her weak point and his behavior does make her feel bad.

would someone please read between the lines. One of them needs to get some courage and kiss the other one.
I think Bette is going to hug & kiss Tina in her sleep, or her pretend sleep and Tina might actually wake up and be like oh my God I like Bette more than a friend! lol PPS
A sleepover – the ideal situation to confront denial – Bette can hardly keep her hands off Tina and they will soon be sleeping in the same room/bed. It’s so going to happen…can’t wait for the next chappie…PPS!
so fucking cute!! gosh tina is blind or something??? kiss the girl!!!
when will tina wake up about her feelings for bette. maybe after this sleepover? bette is adorable to that for tina.:)PPS
enjoying this story. Whats going to happen on the overnight stay. I think Tina is in denial.
Awww,these two girls are so cute both secretly likeing each other and wanting more than friendship. Both also not wanting to hurt the person they are with. Gary is clueless but Carmen is waiting for Shane to get jealous and make a move. I hope this night they spend together will move them closer to what they really want. I wonder what Tina’s mom will think if she and Bette get together? PPS
Not only is Tina blind she is very dense. Cant she see the love in Bette eyes and the fact that Bette is alway there for her,and does anything to please her. thanks
