Tina and Bette looked surprised. They both stared at Natalie.
”I’m so embarrassed to come here, but to be honest, I just don’t have anywhere else to go… I can’t call anyone, my grandmother lives in another city, and I don’t have any money… I was just walking around for a few hours, but then it started raining, so I thought Angie might be able to help me, but she’s not here, and I’ve disturbed you two, and now I’ve spilled this story on you…”
”Don’t even think that something is wrong, please, you did the right thing by coming here”
Tina continued to stroke Natalie’s back, her voice soothing.
”How do you feel now? Look, I can call your father and tell him you’re here…”
Bette was worried about the girl and she felt sorry for her, but you have to think straight in this situation, so she talk about the call.
”No, please. He made it clear that he didn’t want to see me. You see, he’s successful and quite well-known in his profession, so I’m a bit of a failed project for him”
”That sounds horrible. How did you get along before, until tonight?”
Tina asked this without pressure, very carefully.
”My mother died when I was 8. I remember that she always smoothed out conflicts and did not let scandals grow, but when she was gone… there was no one to control dad. He got more and more angry with me, tried to raise me, but only made it worse. Then Katerina appeared and we also started having conflicts with her. I feel so alone… Ange always tells me to try to have a heart-to-heart conversation with him, tell him everything that’s bothering me, but she doesn’t understand that it’s impossible when we talk about my father”
Natalie started crying again as she said the last words, and Tina hugged her, giving Bette a pained look.
”Dear, you can stay in our guest bedroom tonight, okay?” Bette’s voice was also very gentle.
Natalie and Tina finished their hug and the girl looked at Bette.
”Mrs. Porter, thank you very much… I don’t know how to thank you”
”No reason to thank me. You are not a stranger to us. Do you have some clothes to sleep in?”

So Bette is jealous of Margot because she is still afraid that Tina might leave her again. Actually that is a reasonable fear and I think that Bette should talk to Tina about it. Bette should definitely explore this fear with her therapist as well. Tina needs to understand that her leaving the relationship has left Bette with that fear – its happened three times already and who’s to say that a Margot or someone like her might bring on another exit.
Tina is a smart woman – she knew there was a problem and she should have seen jealousy as symptom. She knows Bette well enough to know that Bette was not comfortable with Margot conversation. Bette was smiling in that being polite but not genuinely glad to see Margot. And Margot had the same expression. So why bring it up when Bette has provided a romantic setting for the evening ending celebration? Why not wait until breakfast the next morning? Let the evening flow as it will?
Now, the arrival of Natalie? If Natalie is really running away from home on her own, she would have her cell phone. She would have some money or some kind of plan for her journey. She would not just show up on someone’s doorstep. But she shows up abruptly and unannounced. And I think she would have had a better story than what she had if she were running away. Of course there maybe more going on at home than she is saying.
Interesting chapter…. it seems that there is just no end of problems – let’s hope that Tina and Bette can hold it in the road while they get through all these challenges.
Post more when you can…. I want to see how they get to a somewhat normal life.
I will try to publish the next chapter as quickly as possible. Thank you for your thoughts and attention to this story!
Thank you for the chapter!
Oh, first – i love jealous Bette :). And i think she has her reason to do it – to be suspicion about this Margo.
Second – i think it’s right thing what Bette did – texting Natalie father and let him know where his daughter.
And third – i think Tina also right what she said about Natalie and her father’s fight. They need to listen his story (if he wants to tell it) and then judge him.
Yeah, Bette’s jealous side has its charm :)
Thank you, Zhenya!
Bette is jealous of Margot and upset that Tina appears to respond. At least they talked. Tina has to set boundaries with Margot and I feel this will help Bette.
Poor Natalie. At least Bette contacted her father.
I think you’re right about boundaries. Good to see you here!
