A Walk on the Wild Side – Chapter 23
As Bette slowly began to roll out the canvas on her lap, a picture started to form, each partial turn of it revealing more and more of the vision. She saw the waters edge of the watering hole before her, realising that the picture was painted as if Tina was standing thigh deep in the clear water. Ahead of her was the first of the pride of lions they had watched relocate. She could see two lionesses sat upright, scouring the savannah intently watching out for any unexpected meal opportunities, beside the second lioness was a cub, jumping up at his mother, trying unsuccessfully to nip her ear to attract her attention. As she unrolled further she saw a mother standing side on, cleaning one of the two magnificent lions, by licking in long strokes down the length of his golden mane.
Bette couldn’t contain the giggle at the sight of the second male, lying on the ground, his mouth open mid roar, and his paw swiping half heartedly at the two cubs playing by his side, their boisterous fighting disturbing him from his sleep.
Her eyes roved the painting lovingly as she unfurled the picture further piece by piece as if putting together a jigsaw. Suddenly there sat a Land Rover in the background. Tina’s Land Rover.
Bette paused holding her breath, already knowing what the next roll of the canvas would uncover. She rolled fraction by fraction to reveal herself in the middle of this scene, her face full of joyous wonder, reminding her of the photograph she had seen the previous evening. Oh my god she thought. That’s why Tina had taken all of those pictures, she thought. The tears escaped her then, rolling unnoticed down her face. She knew the beautiful blonde who had captured her heart would be sat right next to her, and as she rolled the canvas one more time there she was, but not watching the scene before them as Bette expected. She was watching Bette, her body leaning toward her, the honey gold glints in her hair emphasised in the bright sun. Suddenly Bette had the answeer she had so desperately searched for, there it was staring her straight in the face. Tina’s expression of loving tenderness told Bette everything she needed to know about the blondes feelings for her.
