”You’re not overwhelming me, and we’re not heading into the swamp. I love you, I respect you, and that’s why I don’t want anyone to think they have the right to make you worry or feel uncomfortable for even a second. Okay?”
”But it looks like I’m putting you back in some kind of frame… this is your free space, we had so many problems with it and we kind of started to deal with it”
”And we’re doing it. Flirting with women is not a space that interests me”
Bette was serious, but she chuckled a little at Tina’s words, ”Isn’t it?”
Tina smiled and reached out to give Bette a quick peck on the lips, ”Nope”
”So there was a flirtation?” Bette said this with a slight smile, sipping her tea and looking at Tina with gentle eyes.
”I didn’t notice it. I don’t know, maybe because Margot is an interesting person and I didn’t want to think that she would do such a stupid thing. But I thought about it after what you said yesterday, and I remembered some things and … yeah, sometimes her attentions were unnecessary. I just didn’t think much of it”
They both became more relaxed after this little conversation. Despite their last night of love, there had been an unpleasant topic called Margot hanging between them until that moment, and now it felt like a relief. Bette was still going to talk about her jealousy and anger with Salma, but the most important thing for her was to talk about it with Tina and it was done.
”You and Natalie had a long talk today”
”She’s so versatile… time flew by completely unnoticed”
”You’ve taken a liking to her, I can see that”
”Yeah, she’s a nice. I don’t know, it makes my heart ache that Andrew knows that she lacks attention and parental love, but at the same time doesn’t care about it at all. He talked about it as if it was something natural, normal. That’s awful”
Today, Bette clearly felt that the whole story with Natalie and her father echoed in her thoughts about Oli. How can some parents be so indifferent and dismissive of the gift they have – their child? How can they not appreciate the moment when the child needs them and not be there, but just brush it off and say ”she always leaves the house, she just doesn’t have enough attention” ? Only parents who have never lost their child can behave this way. Who do not understand that any quarrels, rudeness or misunderstandings are, in fact, happiness, because it means that your child is alive. Everything else can be fixed.

Seriously? Jodi. She is so piece of work. Failing Angie out of spite for Bette. I’m glad Natalie is going back home and recognizes that she left voluntarily. Maybe she’ll actually talk to a counselor. Margot. Man, she’s bold. I hope Bette Coming to Jesus statement gives her pause. Tina needs to really set some firm boundaries.
agree with ya!
so is Margo also working for Warner Brothers? She tried to get under Bette’s skin by implying that she has been to the house enough times visiting that she knew right where Tina kept her “thing-a-majiggies” but it didnt work. Good for you Bette!!!
Margot is not a very considerate person….showing up at Tina’s without notice at night knowing she is married and with a child is the apex of rudeness. And thinking she could just enter the house without invitation is rude beyond rude. Margot is not being just rude to Bette, she is showing Tina no respect as well. Boundaries? Someone who wants to be your friend recognizes when you are in a relationship and that your shared home with a wife is not open to your access on a whim. I would tell her that she needs to call first and that she needs to understand that Bette is her wife and will be respected as such. No more of this causal touching, showing up at her home or office or anywhere else without notice and consent.
Jodi…. it appears that she set up Angie to be humiliated just like her mother. If Angie chooses RSID as the college of her choice, then despite what Bette thinks, Jodi is bound to become a problem. How is it that you choose a team to be the advisor of it and then you rank them the lowest in the competition? Does that not say something about the advisor? And my bets are that all that personal attention Jodi was giving Angie included some milking of information on Bette and Tina. Jodi is a snake in the grass. Beware of Ms Jodi Learner.
Thanks for the update….
Thank you for the chapter!
Well Jodie seems the Jodie we know – very vengeful. But i think not big harm done, and i don’t think it could lead to something else in the future. With this Margo – another story. (By the way – can we have conversation between Tina and her about boundaries?) So i think we could hear about Margo in the future and not done with her.
