They walked into the living room, “Oh my god, this is—well, I don’t know what to say, it’s lovely.” Bette smiled, “Do you really love it, because there are a few more like it, but not in this neighborhood and not for this price.”
“No,” Tina said, looking around, “I really love it.” Bette walked over to the double doors and stared out at the pool. “Well, Alice and Dana will love it, too. It has a pool.” Tina laughed, “Oh, well then we have to buy it.”
Bette continued to stare off into the yard as Tina walked around. “So, what are you thinking about over there?”
Bette shook her head and dropping her eyes to the floor, sighed, “Tina, did you ever just know something, but you ignored it for so long that when it finally hits you, the sense of it all—it just overwhelms you?”
Tina leaned against the wall in the kitchen, “Why do I get the feeling that this doesn’t have anything to do with the house, or us…”
“Because it doesn’t.” Bette turned, “So, should we make an offer?”
She walked over and stared out the doors next to Bette, “Well what do you know, there’s a pool house,” and turning, continued, “There isn’t anything you can’t tell me—of all people, I would hope you’d know that.”
Bette reached out and pushed the hair from Tina’s shoulder, “Of course I know that.”
“Because I’m right here,” Tina said and Bette smiled, “I know you are.”
Tina jokingly pushed her into the living room and collapsed on the couch as Bette shut the door. She bent down to pick up the mail scattered about the floor. “Shane, Shane, Shane—I swear to god, that kid gets more mail than I do.”
Tina lifted her head, “What is it,” to which Bette shrugged, “I don’t know—junk mail? Bette went to throw the letters onto the growing pile, when the return address caught her attention. She picked them up and fanning through them, said, “These are all from art schools. All of them, I mean, there must be twenty letters here, and they’re all from art schools.”

Whoa…heavy stuff. Bette’s Mom must have told her things when she was dying and now starts the guilt trip. Great chapter Girl, can’t wait for your next update.
cool story, plz continue.
WOW, but did bette really know? she might have know about a baby, doesn’t mean she know it was shane…. anyway it’s time for bette to start yapping to tina and stop this hidding crap… :)PPS
So glad you’re back with an update…thank you.
Totally didn’t see that coming!! and they found a house…yay!! PPS:)
Yet another great update… it’s wonderful seeing how Bette is coming to terms with having Shane as a sister.
So Bette knew about a baby,did she know all the time where she was. This is heavy on Bette, she needs to come clean with Tina,thanks
WOW!!!
Just read this entire story in one night. Really enjoying it. Love all the twists and turns.
I hope this means that Bette will finally open up to Tina and share what is going on with her memories. I wonder if Bette remembered until now what happened with her Mom as she was dying. I look forward to the next chapter.
So in reality Bette knew about Shane but did nothing, But how can a kid do anything about her mother’s condition. Bette was probably in teens or younger when Shane was conceived so there really was not much that Bette could have done.
Fantastic update, I love it!! PPS
bette has to know that what happened with shane , as a baby, was not her fault… what was she supposed to do , go out and bring her home… it was all on melvin’s head… he was the one who didn’t want to help with the baby… so i hope tina convinces bette that none of this was her fault… PPS
oh hell, what a freakin’ mess; pps
great update…can’t wait for more..and I hope Shane comes back soon.
Boy this is really going to be a very heavy conversation when she talks to Tina and that is something she must do. And is Bette’s mother really deceased or did Melvin hide her in some clinic somewhere? I really need to go back and read again, I don’t remember. PPS
