They sat in silence for a while, stroking each other’s hands and listening to the silence. A few minutes later, Tina brought Bette’s hand to her lips and kissed it slowly. Bette responded with an almost imperceptible smile that only touched the corners of her mouth. Tina lifted her head, pushed Bette’s hair back a little, and kissed first her cheekbone and then her cheek. The brunette’s skin was incredibly soft and pleasant, and Tina ran her hand over the edge of her face several times before kissing her on the lips. Bette lifted her hands to Tina’s neck and wrapped them around her, stroking Her hair. The blonde turned so that she was straddling Bette, still kissing her. This kiss was not passionate, but deep and sensual. It was not about physical pleasure, but about the desire to be even closer, to feel the warmth of a loved one, to be wrapped in them and to know that they are close when the clouds are gathering around. Bette slowly and comprehensively stroked Tina’s neck, shoulders, elbows, back, lower back, and thighs, and silently indicated that She was all there and ready to be a source of warmth, if this is what will help the blonde feel better. This will help them both. Tina, in turn, was trying to get as close to Bette as possible, leaving not a millimeter of space between them. She tore her mouth away from the brunette’s, now placing one kiss on her cheek, another under her temple, and another on her neck, just below her earlobe. After that, Tina stopped kissing Bette and gently pressed her head to Bette’s, resting her chin on her shoulder and nuzzling her hair, which smelled like sweet orange shampoo mixed with woody perfume. Bette had one hand on the back of Tina’s head and the other on Her waist. Their eyes were closed and their breathing matched the rhythm. There was silence and relative darkness, only the Desk lamp was on in the room, and the office was empty except for the two of them. They lay there for a long time, without moving, without speaking, listening to each other’s heartbeats and calming down. It must have been a silent Declaration of love and that their world could not be destroyed as long as they had each other. A bundle of conflicting energy filled this room. Love and sadness, happiness and stabbing, striking pain, the desire to live this life and at the same time forget some part of it as a terrible dream or learn to remember humbly. This is what was inside both of them and what they were sharing with each other right now.
If they were drawn by an artist now, it would turn out to be a picture permeating with beauty and deep meaning, saying a lot about love, about life, about choice, about fate, about eternity, about inevitability.

This story is very sad, yet inspiring. From the depths of despair can come hope if one will just look for it. Bette and Tina have both repressed their feeling of loss and hurt for a long time. And although this loss is something they will never get over they must learn to live with it and to put their lives into a loving and caring relationship with each other and with Angie. Its time to acknowledge the loss, feel the pain, heal each other and learn how to go forward as a result. Loss of a child is devastating. Dealing with it even more difficult. It can tear families apart… these two need each other… I believe they have made a good and positive start. They just need to get to the point where they turn to each other every time, when in need of comfort and solace and to be present when those times arise.
Thanks for the update….
Thank you for reading, Martha!
I really like your phrase “from the depths of despair can come hope if one will just look for it”
I think it makes a lot of sense.
Hi Ada,
This was so good, i almost don’t have words to describe how this chapter touched my heart.
I don’t have children and can’t imagine what a devasted loss it is when your child suddenly dies, but you did a excellent job to describe what Bette and Tina went through when they lost Oli.
I have full confidence in that this therapist will help Bette and Tina to come to terms with the loss of Oli and give it a place.
For the rest, I can only say that I fully agree with what Martha has written in her comment.
This is definitely one of the best chapters you have written!
I know I don’t always write a comment but I’ll follow your story from the beginning and through to your last chapter!
Thank you, be careful and stay healthy!
Thank you so much for such wonderful words, Bibi!
Although your comments are not frequent, they are always very interesting to read. The feedback is really important to me, and the fact that you gave it this time is so nice. I hope that you will enjoy the continuation of this story no less. Thanks and be careful too!
Ok, it was not easy chapter also.
I like the story about how Tina’s cold reaction on Kit’s death might be subconsciously reaction and even revenge for Bette’s reaction for Oli’s death. I think it’s very trustworthy. – as the story in s3 when i think all Henry story was Tina’s subconsciously revenge to Bette for carpenter.
Yeah, when viewing s3, I had the same thoughts.
Thank you, Zhenya!
Wow! Such an emotional chapter and very well articulated. The depth of these characters is never ending. Great chapter.
Thank you very much! This is so important.
