    Author Notes:

    I’m not giving up on you yet

    Bette watched Tina and Angelica, both so engrossed in their food — shrimp pesto and mashed potato, respectively — that they seemed completely oblivious to how people kept glancing in the direction of their table, doing double-takes at the sight of Porter and Kennard as a family unit, on a weekday.

    She didn’t want to relish this moment. She didn’t want to enjoy sitting across the table from Tina, Angelica between them. She didn’t want to be seated at a table at the quiet end of The Planet, away from the swinging single set just a few feet away in the other room.

    She didn’t want any of it because the last time she got what she wanted Tina slipped away from her and went and got herself a boyfriend.

    She didn’t want it, but it wasn’t a surprise how happy she felt doing what she did not want to want.

    In front of her, her own chicken salad remained half-eaten, as she had spent most of dinner entertaining both Kennards (okay, one Kennard-Porter, according to the adoption papers), then as silence descended chosen to instead watch them.

    During dinner Bette learned a few things. One was Tina still breastfed, due to her refusal of drinking wine. Another was that Angelica enjoyed both breadsticks and pasta. Angelica also liked herbed bread. And that when Angelica wanted something, she did not cry, instead looked for her mothers’ attentions in any way she can, for them to give it to her.

    Bette wondered if Angelica would be so hungry for attention when she grew up, and glanced at her mother. No, Tina wasn’t one to crave attention.

    And Bette wondered how much of that was true.

    Tina looked up, and saw Bette looking at her. "What?"

    "People are looking at us."

    "Why?"

    Bette lifted an eyebrow, as if to state, ‘why do you think?’

    Tina glanced around, and noticed how many people suddenly turned and pretended to be engrossed in something else. "Was our split that public?"

    "You did get yourself a boyfriend," Bette reminded.

    Tina winced. "Oh, God. That was insanity."

    "Was it?" Bette asked, deadpan.

    4. One of these days Tina’s going to plant one on Bette. One of these days I won’t have an exam the next day (that’ll be in about 7-8 months). Now that I’ve had my fix, back to the books.

    13. oh, those two…they drive me insane…just give her a hug, just tell her you love her…well, this story keep me on the edge every time…post soon

    17. I will not curse your Tibette heart! If I did then I would curse my own heart, only you can place your heart into a tender loving story. All mine can do is read these stories and day dream. Let your heart continue to bring these happy stories to us.

    18. this chapter was so good! i almost fall down when i readed about the Kiss until i read the next line and it never happened! but i hope soon they kiss lovely!

    21. I know it’s driving some people insane how Bette and Tina get so close yet don’t act on their feelings, but I think it’s cute. Right now they are like 2 teenagers in that awkward stage before becoming exclusive. Except these 2 are adults who have to work things out before jumping in the sack or their actions will be cheapened.

    23. I just died laughing at the “a world of no” thought Bette had about Gabby holding baby Jeli. Loved your post. I’m going to check back a few more pages. I think I missed a post. You are becoming quite prolific.

    24. From a certain phone message of ¡§I want¡¨ to the ¡§didn¡¦t want¡¨, Bette has certainly changed/grown/matured. ¡§She didn’t want it, but it wasn’t a surprise how happy she felt doing what she did not want to want.¡¨ I believe Buddhism teaches letting go of one¡¦s needs in order to gain spiritually. Perhaps this is the way for Bette to have a family again!! Knowing that this will lead to ¡§Pick A Part¡¨ soothe any fears, doubts, insecurities and tip-toeing with these ladies worthwhile. Thank you for the update, tiff.

    25. TD,Such a breath of fresh air as Bette and Tina slip into the easy conversation of friends. Things are slowly moving forward as they each realize and appreciate what they had and how they lost it. Being civil with each other is a great step and more so knowing that they both want more but only are too scared to tempt fate further at the moment. You have such a wonderful way with words. My heart follows accordingly, ups and down. Thank you for sharing this awesoem gift with me. Your Loyal Fan.
