The young woman arrived exactly on time. She was a friendly and energetic brunette. Her name was Vivian Garland. Bette and Tina liked her immediately, so the conversation went quickly and easily. Bette reviewed the contract and noted that everything was pretty standard. It was a 6-month term but would include any home purchased after the term which the agent has shown to them or suggested to Bette and Tina might be interested in within 6 months of the expiration of the contract. She would be the purchasing agent and her fee did not include any selling agent’s fee which may be required at closing due to contract or agreement. If Bette and Tina purchased a home in California within six months, Vivian Garland was due compensation period regardless of how the purchase came about or how much involvement Vivian had in the transaction. Vivian left with the promise that she would email by Wednesday some houses which Tina and Bette would be interested in. She would then schedule the first showings on Thursday and others when convenient.
Bette and Tina had missed their normal nap time, so they suggested that they have a two-hour nap and have a left-overs from Sunday for dinner. They announced their plan to the kids and headed upstairs. Angie decided that she too would take a nap while Daniel decided to play video game after a peanut butter and honey sandwich with his favorite soft drink. So, the house became quiet by 4:30.
At 6:30, Tina and Bette awakened and went to the kitchen to prepare the dinner. Dinner was roast beef, potatoes au gratin, fried squash, cole slaw and beans wrapped in bacon and honey. Desert would be a bowl of ice cream. Angie decided that she would try the wine with the meal. Tina poured only a half a glass of the red wine promising that she could have the other half if she wanted it. Angie thought that the wine was not the best tasting drink she had ever had, but thought that it enhanced the meal’s flavor and it made her feel like an adult. She enjoyed this experience. Bette and Tina watch to see if her behavior changed as a result of the alcohol and decided that it had not. When asked, Angie admitted that she felt a little light headed as a result of the wine. Tina believed that was a good sign. No response sometimes causes some people to increase their intake. And that was not the purpose of allowing Angie to indulge in the adult beverage.

Love all the details!
Didn’t know anything about going to university and the different college houses, after reading it i would advise Angie not to join one of them. Find her own way and make her own friends, not ones who hold standards and where you can’t be yourself.
Bette, Tina, Angie and Daniel are in for a ride with all these changes in their life.
Look forward to read more!
Bibi,
Thank you for reading…. this is strictly a personal opinion on the role of sororities and fraternities – to belong to the right group and meet and know the right people. If it were not that way, they would not discriminate who should be a member and who shouldn’t. I’m sure others have their own view which would contradict mine. Such as the way life is…
My hopes in this story is to show Bette and Tina going through some normal life decisions and relationships. It is not a story of high drama…. but I am in hopes that sometime, the everyday things can cause the everyday requirement to connect and communicated with your spouse and family. I do go into some detail in Bette and Tina’s communication with Angie and later with Daniel as well as each other. I hope that the reader will see how these two create and maintain the solid relationship they have which will carry on for a life time. This will not appeal to a whole lot of people…. but I hope that when you go through these next few months with Bette and Tina, you will know them as I do.
This is a long story…. but it is complete and ready to post. Let me know the frequency you would like for me post and I will keep it coming…. Thank you for reading…
I am very proud of you for completing your story. I think k it’s nice to see them going through real life. I hope to get back in the game when I am well enough. Congratulations on your story.
Thank you for your explanation about your intentions of this story.
About the frequency of you posting, it really doesn’t matter for me, i work in the weekend every other week and then free on Thursday and Friday but i work early and late shifts. Post whenever you want and i try to read it if i have time, i promise i will read it.
I like the story. This chapter of course is your opinion. Having been to college and being a member of a sorority, I differ in my opinion of college. It’s not ALL ABOUT Greek life. They are not discriminatory. There’s also other facets of college life that make it some of the best years of a person’s life. I made life long friends, both Greek and non-Greek that made my college experience a great one. There’s a balance and all sorts of things that I feel you didn’t touch on in the explanation to Angelica. However, it’s your story and your opinion, your version. I will continue to read because you’re a great writer. I just felt this chapter was unbalanced.
Trecelovinit…. Thank you for reading…. First, I must say, this is the first of several conversation Bette and Tina will be having with Angie about college life. They will leave it up to Angie to decide if you wants to get into Greek life or not. With the continuing conversations they will have, I hope you will see there is a continuing theme in that Angie is totally in control of her life at college. That includes who she associates with, what organizations she decides to belong to, what she studies and how she spends her free time.
I think I have a different definition of discrimination. I mean to determine who should be a member and who shouldn’t on whatever basis that happens. It could be based on personality, on appearance, on social contacts or family contacts, or course of study or some other criteria which is totally not apparent to those who are being chosen versus those who are not. For everyone who desires to be a member does not get an invitation to be a member. So someone is discriminating against those they do not wish to extend an invitation in favor of those they wish to extend an invitation. And that criteria may have nothing to with color, race, religion, gender identification, sexual orientation, political persuasion or country of origin. But the process is discriminatory in that each house have a limited number of members. Sororities and Fraternities are social organizations based upon knowing the right people to enhance you college life and your post college life.
Yes, I am probably not presenting a balance picture… but I’m not sure that I am capable of presenting a more balance picture. This is my Bette and Tina’s view based upon their own experiences. And believe it or not, they are desperately trying to allow Angie to make up her own mind about college life when she goes off to experience it. But they do want her to see that with every benefit, there are cost. And please remember, both Tina and Bette attended college some 35 years ago. Life has changed in that period… Their experiences are not going to be the same as Angie’s experiences will be.
Thank you for your comment…
Thank you for your response. I do appreciate your perspective and responding to me. I do love the story and as I stated previously, I think your writing is great. I will continue to read. I do respect and did state that it’s your opinion and your story. I agree their time in college was 35 years ago. Honestly, it’s been 30 years for me. Things definitely do change and I appreciate different perspectives. Thank you for writing.
