    Chapter 14 – BETTE GETS HER ANSWER

    “Angie, I can’t speak for your Mom, but I can tell you that I want all of us to be a family again.” Tina squeezed Angie’s hand she was still holding. “I need to apologize to both of you for how I’ve acted and the things I’ve done that have hurt you both.”

    “Okay, but Mom wants you here too, right B?”

    “Yes, I do.” Bette answered her daughter and gazed at Tina with love in her eyes. “T, I do want you here.”

    “Your mother and I have been taking about what went wrong and we why divorced.” Tina took a deep breath and looked inside herself to find the courage to tell her daughter the truth. ”We talked about some really heavy stuff today. Some things your Mom didn’t know about.”

    ”T . . .” Bette began but Tina stopped her from continuing.

    “No Bette, I’ve gotta tell the truth.” Tina closed her eyes for a second gathering her inner strength and looked into daughter’s eyes. ”Angie, I’m not sure you know this, but I asked for the divorce and forced your mother into agreeing to it.”

    ”But why?”

    ”I was running from my problems and didn’t let your mother help me to solve any of them.”

    ”But I thought you guys always talked about stuff.” Angie looked between both her parents. ”That’s what you’ve always told me.”

    ”I guess I’ve been a bad role model in that.” Tina pressed her lips together trying to keep the tears forming in her eyes at bay. ”I let both you and your mom down and I’m sorry that I did. I . . . I’ve been in therapy for almost two years, and I have figured out why I act the way I do.”

    “I know you were unhappy sometimes when I lived with you in Toronto.”

    ”Yes, I was.” Tina admitted. “But it wasn’t because of you sweetheart.”

    “But how do I know that you won’t leave again?” Angie asked.

    “You only have my word on that for now. But I intend to prove to both you and your mom that I am staying. I promise to prove to you both that I’m committed to us being a family again.” Tina smiled over at Bette. The moment of truth was here. “I . . . I’ve asked your .om to give me another chance.”

      • Hi SG,

        Thanks so much for following this story. The last 3 chapters have been very heavy & tons of info revealed & talked about.

        Our gals have gotten through this tough part & laid the basis for a start on their future.

        Some lighter chapters to follow.

        Again, thank a bunch.

        Stay safe yourself & stay well.

    2. Hi Collins,

      What a fantastic chapter!

      They are really on the right path to reconcile fully and both are aware of their own faults and flaws and determined to work individually and later in couple therapy to make sure they don’t will repeat those same mistakes ever.

      Open and honesty communication is the key and it is wonderful to read and see that they are fully committed to work at that.

      Love how Bette told Tina how beautiful she is inside and outside, it was a beautiful declaration of the love Bette has and always will have for Tina.

      To take Bette’s fears away about Tina not leaving again, it will take time and actions for Tina to prove she is not going to run away from Bette if she is afraid, feels inadequaat or simply buries what ever her troubles. Trust needs to be rebuilt and the only way to do that is to turn words into action.

      Great talk with Angie and Bette telling that she needs to prove to Tina that she has really changed and admitting she didn’t always back up her words of love or support to Tina was a huge telling point that she really changed.

      Slowly they are going to rebuild their relationship and i look forward to see how you takes us through that journey Collins!

      Thank you for this incredible story!

      Take care and be save and healthy my friend ????

      • AGREE with Bibi 100%. This is a nice bookend to the buildup from the previous chapters. Tina still has some work to do but it appears she is ready to do what it takes. Talking so openly to Angie will hold her accountable now that she vocally committed to Bette in front of her daughter. Turning words into action like BiBi said is key – she can say anything she wants but she needs to SHOW Bette by her actions that she understands and is all in.
        Thank you Collins, you put a lot into this story and it is simply fantastic to read….

        • Hey my friend,

          Tried to weave all aspects of this fractured family & set them back on track on firmer ground to embrace their future.

          Yes, Tina still has a lot to prove & the future won’t be perfect, but the first steps have been made for a united reconciliation & they won’t squander this chance.

          Thanks so much for your support & encouragement.

          All the best my friend.

          Collins

      • Hey Bibi,

        You are so right about our gals finally being on the same page on what they want & how to accomplish it.

        In the past, they have both faltered in their commitment to each other, but now have this wonderful chance to get it right.

        They’ve gone through a lot of pain these last 3 chapters & now have a plan for the future.

        Thanks so much for your support these past few months in reading & commenting on this journey.

        Take care yourself.

        All the best.

        Collins

    3. Thank you foe the chapter!

      But how Tina think they can make a one issue – she would leave in LA half-year and other half-year in Canada? Long distance relationship are very hard and a very rarely succeeded. How she think it’s going to work?

      • Hi Zhenya,

        You are so welcome for the chapter. I enjoy writing them, although these last few chapters have been a bit tough to write & very heavy with emotions for Tibette.

        So the plan at the moment is for Tina to get her own apartment & be back in LA for the next 6 months that her show is on hiatus. Then she’ll come home for long weekends, holidays, etc until the show wraps up next year. And Bette & Angie can always visit in Toronto too.

        We’ve got a way to go yet in this story & still lots of stuff to discover about what the future will look like.

        Take care & thanks again.

      You have unpacked so much with our girls. Now the internal processing takes a turn.

      Loved the family meeting, Angie getting popcorn. I have to admit, I would be getting popcorn too with her parents telling their story. LOL

      • Hiya K,

        These last 3 chapters were a labor of love for Tibette & a determination to pave a path for their reconciliation.

        Lots of special moments & lots of hope for their future.

        Thanks so much for reading & your support.

        My best always.

        Collins

    5. Thank you for this beautiful chapter, Collins.
      T + B have come a long way. I love how open they are with each other. Both committed to be honest with each other and address things before they cause misunderstanding or worse problems between them.

      I agree to the previous comments, not much to add to that. It’s sad to see how profoundly Tina’s experiences in her youth shaped her view of herself. But if Bette continues to give such amazing, loving compliments she will be able to change her self-perception.
      Bette’s description of Angie and all her traits that Bette links to Tina is very sweet. What a declaration of love not only for her daughter but for the birth mother as well. Love it.

      I’m so happy that you don’t let Tina take all the blame for the divorce. Tina does have a lot of issues that shaped her and influenced many of her subconcious and automatic reactions. But sometimes I miss Bette reflecting on her part of the separation as well. You make Bette see her part in all of it and her need to work on some of her habits as well. And she tells Angie that much as well.
      “She had to admit to herself that she sometimes did get distracted by work, artists or other obligations. But not anymore. …. No more taking up too much space.”
      Exactly! Thanks for that. Maybe the GQ writers will consider something like this in the second season.

      With the election about to happen I wonder what would happen to all those promises if Bette did make Mayor. Would she really be able to make more time for Tina and Angie? Wouldn’t her job consume so much of her time? Always on call for such a big city like LA? I’m not so sure Bette could make good on her promises.

      Looking forward to the next part. Still catching-up on the newest stories. At least I can go on reading immediately, a huge advantage of my work getting in the way of checking in on lesfan.com for more than a week ;-)

    6. Hey K,

      Thanks so much for leaving a comment.

      Like in most everything we do as a couple – it always takes 2 to make it work or not. Bette has her own issues & has to be committed to not allowing these distractions to overtake her personal life as she has at times in her past.

      If she were to win the election, she would have to carve out some ‘family time’ for Tina & Angie. It would be a challenge, but one I think she would be very aware of & committed to keeping. Being flexible would be key. Delegation is key & holding onto those boundaries between personal & professional life is important. And with Tina back in LA, she won’t have to do everything alone – they could do some events together.

      Tina still has more to work on & you’ll see that in the next few chapters. But progress is being made & that’s what matters most.

      We still have several more chapters to go, so we’ll see where that leads our gals.

      Take care & thanks again.

      Collins
