The truth is that I have let you take control of things in our lives without much protest because it was easy. It was easier for me and then I blamed you when I didn’t like the results. I know you’re a good person, but I have lost myself in you. I am not even sure that I know who Tina Kennard is anymore. And if you’re honest with yourself you know that what I am saying is true.
I am not going to lie to you Bette and this may sound selfish, but I want you to wait for me. I want you to wait as long as it takes. I would love to have my happily ever after with you. No, I want and I need for my happily ever after to be with you. You are my heart and all of this therapy has helped me realize that I need individual counseling. I have no idea how long it will take, but I am coming home to you as soon as possible. I love you and there is no one else. Period.
I hear Bette say ‘Tina, are you sure about this? Is this what you really want? I can’t say that I understand where all of this is coming from. Quite frankly, I am surprised to hear you saying this. I mean I thought that things were improving between us. But I want you to be happy and healthy, so do what you need to do and I will do everything that I can to support you during this process. You are the woman for me. I am not going to lie to you this hurts. A lot. But if you think it will save our relationship I can not, in good conscience, stop you. Tina, I do have to say this, I don’t know if I can wait for you not knowing where all of this will lead. I mean, admittedly there is no timeline for your self-discovery. I don’t know what to do; I have to give this a lot of thought.’
**I open my arms and Bette walks into my embrace.**
Bette, thank you so much. I really do love you. You have grown and changed so much that I just need a little time and space to catch up. I want you to have as wonderful a girlfriend as the one I have. We both smile a small smile through our tears.
After a bit more conversation we head upstairs. For the first time in a long time we lay down in Bette’s bed and continue to talk. I have had a major breakthrough, what will happen next; I don’t know but I hope that Bette will be there when I am ready.
The next morning, after packing a bag, I let Bette know my plan and I set out on the journey to find myself, Tina Kennard.
The End
Parting thoughts from the author:
Hey again, here are a couple of things that I wanted to say:
– Many of you have been wondering who Tina is talking to on the phone. Well, I asked her and she told me who it is and you would not believe it if I told you. I didn’t want you to have a low opinion of her confidant so I decided not to reveal their identity to you.
– I don’t know why you guys didn’t believe Tina when she said that she would never tell Bette of her affair. I think she really meant it. If there is a sequel (no guarantee – only if they have more to say), we’ll see if she’s able to keep Bette in the dark.
– Lastly, I am proud of this Bette. She seems to have really come into her own. I think she still has things to work on, but she seems to be evolving in a positive way. I think this Tina is going to get it together, too.
Thanks again for reading and commenting, it was a great first time out for me. Have fun and enjoy life.
Warmest Reagards,
moho

1st?
Sorry to see you ens this. We really need a follow up to see it thing do work out as Tina and Bette hope for thanks
What???? You’re ending it? Say it ain’t so…at least Bette didn’t say I’ll wait for you forever (I say that because she’ll be waiting on someone that wasn’t COMPLETELY honest with her) I hope Tina finds herself and I hope you find your way back to us with this story…and any other brilliant pieces you decide to write. Thanks
…NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you can’t leave it like that! I do agree that Tina needs individual help, but a sequel would be great. Please? You know you can’t stay away forever. It’s just not possible.
well, at least we have hopes for a sequel, i hope tina will come home soon and they can work things out…was tina talking to candace?
Well, I didn’t expect it to end like this, really. You should do a sequel/floow-up/epilogue or something. And I never thought it would be Tina that’d tell Bette about the affair. I thought it’d be whoever she was talking to about it on the phone. Anyhow, thanks and post again down the line when you can. cheers
I think Tina should take that secret with her to the grave, and threaten to kill her confidant if she ever tells. Thanks for the story. Sorry you had to end it here!
There just gotta be a sequel even thorough I am struggle w/wether I want Bette with someone who is not honest. This was the perfect time!!! She was leaving anywhere. Please to sequel. PS-I do want them together. Happy and Honest.
to follow up skyc’s thought… Say its not so, dearest moho! You fill us with woe, if you should go!
I DO think Tina needs to find herself, and yes, it probably is more likely to happen away from someone as strong as Bette, but I hope to see you come back with more from them, because no matter how they part, it still hurts…
I have to be honest. I really, really love this story but this ending is not very satisfying. I know that it is your choice but I hope you’ll consider a sequel to bring this story to resolution. I just don’t believe that they can split permanently considering their wonderful life and the people involved. Tina should not tell Bette about her dalliances unless she never wants to be with Bette again. That would be a blow from which this Bette could not recover.
Great, great story. I think the ending is perfect, makes us readers have to really think about what happens next. My own thoughts are that Tina’s confidant was Kit. I believe Kit would never tell Bette, because she knows it would hurt her and/or did not want to break Tina’s confidence, but she also was dropping hints so that maybe Bette would figure it out on her own. I also believe Tina will tell Bette in the future , after she works on herself through therapy. I really hope you do a sequel!
