Im coming Back to You

Chapter Eighteen


You guys, tell her I said hi ok.

Tina why dont you come. It just a party for Libby.

You guys know how Amy gets when its comes to Bette. You guys will be back Monday right.

Thats the plan.

Ok be careful ok. Bye.



When are they getting here momma.

Sweetie, in a little bit.

Kit Kat is coming right?

Yes baby, shes coming with the rest of your aunties.

Okay,

So do we have everything for tomorrow?

Yeah, the food, drinks, gifts, games, and the girls should get here in a little while.

And?

Bette knew what Libby was thinking. Shes not coming. But Callie can make it so we will see.



When the girls arrived Bette was in the kitchen.

Hola, and as soon as Libby heard that she came walking into the room, Kiiit Kaaat, she screamed.

BJ, hey baby girl, with only letters and conversations in between the rest, the proper introductions, were made.

So Bette Porter slaving away in the kitchen, who would have ever thought? They all settled in to dinner, and it was like old times minus one.

You guys, there is someone sort of in my life right now. And Bette waited for them to say something, but was glad and scared when they didnt.

The last time I went down there was to see, if maybe

Bette, its okay. We just want you to be happy, really. Ok.

She knows about what happened, and shes okay with me not being entirely ready. Shes been patient. And I really want to try with her. She turned away because she knew they would see right through her. But she had tired of being alone, and Tina was clear that she was finally where she wanted to be.


Meanwhile

Amy it just her kids party Ill be back on Monday.

Tina, I trust you, its her I dont.

Amy Ill be back, I have to go my plane is waiting.

Tina no do not go.

Amy,

Tina we are together now, we have been doing good, why mess it up now. Tina started to make her way to the door when Amy stood in front of her.

Not now Amy,

You are not going Tina, and grabbed her hand forcefully.

Amy let go now.

Just so you can go back to that *****, no way.

***** you Amy, and forced her hand out of Amys as Amy threw her left hand and struck Tinas face. Tina holding her face got her bags and left.

On the plane Tina was glad they had a later flight to New York. The girls had taken off early this morning so she would be able to settle in till the next day. As she searched for gum in her purse she found the note.

Cause I know you so well, I thought I would give you her address. Well be waiting for you. Alice

She hadnt even thought about what she was going to do once she had gotten to New York. She had no idea how to find Bettes and was glad Alice did what she did.



The Party

Ill be back, we need more ice ok.

Bette you want me to go?

No Shane, stay and mingle. Be nice to Callie ok.


When they reached the address she didnt see her car.

Is this right? The neighborhood was nice, and there were a few cars parked with a cop car not to far off.

Yes maam.

Ok thank you.

She knocked, but no one answered, she heard the commotion in the back but it didnt sound like a party.

When she walked into the back she noticed Kit, Shane, Dana, Alice, and a young girl and an attractive blond girl in a circle. As she walked closer she noticed the young girl in tears, and Kit trying to console her.

Whats going on you guys? They all heard Tinas voice and turned to her as the girl said, Auntie Kit, what if mom isnt ok. They hadnt paid attention to the fact that she had flown in.

Libby baby, she will be fine, my baby sister will be fine.

Tina realizing they were talking about Bette.

Kit, tell me right now what is going on. Kit turned to her with tears rolling down her face, Bette was in a wreck, a drunk driver hit her.

Tina lost it; once more her world had gone crazy on her.

Marcus is waiting in the car for us. The cop said he would escort us. Callie you can come with us.

Shane, Dana, and I will follow.

What about me?

T, you can come with us.
