“Yeah, just the last few years, my sight changed a little. Kept getting headaches after sitting in front of the computer, so I went for a checkup. And I walked out with reading slash computer glasses.” Tina replies with a chuckle, saving her work and closing the laptop and putting it on the table.
“There’s so much I’ve missed.” Bette silently says while laying her head back on the pillow carefully.
Tina gets up and walk around the table and takes a seat on the floor beside the couch and Bette’s face. Bette turns on her side.
“We’ve both missed out on so much. My only hope now is that we won’t ever miss anything again. Is that a possibility Bette?” Tina asks, emotions running deep as a single tear slip down her cheek.
“I want it to be a possibility, but I’m scared. Scared to let go again.” Bette whispers.
“I know. I can make a promise to you. And that is to never leave you again.” Tina says seriously.
“You can’t make that promise Tina. You don’t know.” Bette replies.
“Yeah, I can. I’ll give you that promise here and now. I won’t ever leave you again. Bette, I love you, I’m in love with you. I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you.” Tina says almost pleading. “Can we try again?” Tina asks the final question she want answered.
Bette looks at her with a serious look. “It will be the last time Tina. My heart can’t take another breakup.” Bette says after a few moments. More tears fall from Tina’s eyes.
“Oh Bette.” Tina says, starting to cry as she moves closer to Bette, taking her hand in hers and brings it closer and places a soft kiss on the back of her hand.
“There is only you Tina.” Bette whispers as she leans in and places a soft kiss on Tina’s forehead with tears streaming down her face. “I love you.” She adds softly. Tina raises her head a little to look into Bette’s eyes. “Come join me on the couch T. Get behind me, I want you to hold me.” Bette softly asks Tina. Tina looks at Bette with questioning eyes, just to make sure.
“You sure?” She asks before getting up.
“I’m surer than ever.” Bette whispers back.
Tina stands up and carefully get in behind Bette and nuzzle into Bette’s neck with her arm carefully placed around her waist. Bette can’t seem to stop the tears. She has waited so long for this, never thought it would happen again. Tina can feel the slow shaking coming from the silent tears. She pulls Bette a little closer, hoping Bette would feel the love, the newfound love that never really went away, just got a little lost on the way. “I love you Bette, never doubt that ever again.” Tina whispers into Bette’s ear.

Wow. Love this story. I just came in from walking my dog. It is cool and wet here on east coast USA. Your story is so full of love with hurt and angst. I believe they are soulmates but even soulmates can’t resolve hurt that drives them apart. Angie is a reflection of both of them…the good and the bad. I hope this story continues searching for solutions to issues we all have with loving, communication, loneliness, fear and intimacy! Thanks for bringing a smile to my face when I see another post by you! Take care and be safe.
It is a beautiful day here in the Netherlands! And it got more beautiful when i saw you posted a new chapter!
I believe in soulmates and everlasting love, so i truly believe that they work out everything and start again and live happily and forever till death tears them apart. And that will be when they are very old, maybe have a few grandchildren and still very much in love ♥️
I understand that Bette is hesistant to get back with Tina, Tina left her more than one time for the same reasons, so Tina has to prove to Bette it isn’t only talk but must back it up with actions to support her words. She has to go back to Canada to wrap up some matters so she has to leave Bette at some time and i wonder how Bette will react since there is a big chance Tina has also to meet Carrie to get closure.
Great story! Look forward to the next chapter!
Thank you for the update!
Ok, now we can see more clearly that Bette willing to try again with Tina.
But i still think it’s weird that Angie still not saw her at home
Bette, ever forgiving. Tina, ever wrapped up in her own head. Excuses excuses. Glad to see she is willing to make some changes. She will need to dig deeper to stop a repeat of the other times she needed space and blamed Bette. I love this story, my comments are more directed at the mess shown on the Q. PSS;
Bette is in a very vulnerable position at the moment. She really in not mentally or emotionally ready to be making decisions about her future. Tina should just assure her that she is at her beck and call and will not leave until Bette request that she leave and only when she not longer needs assistance. Otherwise, Tina will be the partner and friend she should have been all along. Priority one – get Bette well. Priority two – the continued raising of Angelica Priority Three -the relationship going forward between Bette and Tina.
It really good to see that Tina is being open with Bette. However, she needs to allow Bette her own pace and certainly not rush Bette in committing to trying to reconcile. If that is her intention, she will let Tina know. They need to get Angie back into the house to establish a routine during this recovery and to show that she is very much a part of the family. Angie giving space for her parents to potentially reconcile is not what is needed at this point. She needs to be with Bette to have some form of normalcy. Confidence that Bette is getting better will help Angie. Having Angie near will be a comfort to both Bette and Tina. While Bette is recovering, reconciliation can be put on the back burner. That does not mean that they cannot express affection and devotion to one another. They just need to take some time to recover before they start to delve into the problem pile and coming up with solutions. And recovery starts when they are all living under the same roof as a family.
I love this story…I see some real possibilities for reconciliation provided they do not rush things. Bette and Tina are not the only ones who have been through this period of disconnect. Angie has experienced it too. Tina needs to reconnect with her daughter and she has a very limited time frame to do that in. Within a couple of years, Angie will go off to college. How much time will Tina need to spend in Canada for her job? What will that do toward the relationship between Tina and Bette and Tina and Angie?
Thank you for this chapter. Its really going well. I’m just surprised that both Bette and Tina are pushing this as quickly as they are. Can’t wait more….
In my fourth week of sole isolation here in the UK and, because of my age, 76, likely to be in the same position for many more weeks.
I seem to cry at most situations I’m faced with, factual or fictional, these days and I did at this great story.
I do think Angie needs to come home. She needs Bette and Bette needs her. She is a large part of her Mums lives.
I am also enjoying reading the comments which we readers don’t always read but I am getting the benefit of being on catch up.
Thank you for posting. Stay safe.
