Birthdays- Part II
“You’ve no idea how much I have missed you” Bette whispered as tears began to form in her eyes.
“Sowhat do we do about it?”
“About what?” asked Bette.
“Missing each other.”
“I don’t know” she shyly responded, very unclear as to where all of this was coming from. Since their separation, Tina had not been able to be in the same room with her, much less have a conversation with her and so she found herself on very unsure footing.
“I saw Kit yesterday.”
“Oh yeah? And how was she?”
“Good. She provided me with some much needed grounding.”
“Well, I’m glad that she could be of some help” said Bette, not following how this tied into their current conversation.
“When I woke up yesterday morning and realized that your birthday was today, it really sent me into a tailspin.”
Bette just sat there, not really sure how to respond.
“You know how important this day is to me” she softly said in an unneeded explanation.
“I do” was all she said.
“Ever since our first meeting all of those years ago, we have never missed each other’s birthday.”
“I know” whispered Bette, the feeling of Tina lightly rubbing her shoulder very comforting.
“And I didn’t want to start now” she softly said, her own tears beginning to flow.
Seeing Tina start to cry, Bette began to get up to get a Kleenex.
Tina reached out and grabbed Bette by the arm to stop her.
“No Bette, please, don’t go anywhere.”
“But I was going to”
“No baby, just sit with me, please.”
Tina’s term of endearment was not lost on Bette, but she wondered if Tina even knew that she had said it.
Bette settled back onto the sofa, sitting a little closer than she had been before. Tina continued to hold onto Bette’s arm as she collected her thoughts.
“Kit said something to me yesterday that really hit home.”
“What’s that?” asked Bette as she turned her body so that she was more facing Tina, her arm now draped against the back of the sofa.
“She said that you tried to talk to me.”
