Suzanne: Really? They are lovers?
Tina: Yes, Suzanne. Just announced this evening. They plan to both be occupying the same bedroom by tomorrow evening. This is all brand new to us.
Angie: How do you feel about it?
Bette: Fine. As long as that is what they want. They are both adults and they know what attracts them and what doesn’t. They know their own feelings and they are both lovely people as far as I am concerned.
Angie: What if they have a fuss?
Tina: They will have to resolve their own fuss. Mary is Bette’s mother and Margaret is our friend. We will not take sides unless someone does something purposeful to hurt the other. But we will still let them work out their problems. We will listen and counsel only when asked. And we will always encourage love and happiness. And everyone deserves the happiness they define for themselves.
Bette: Angie, don’t worry. Your mom and I are not going to cast two sweet old ladies out on the street just because they have a fuss. And we won’t pick and choose our favorite between the two of them either.
Tina: Angie, this is their choice and they will reap the rewards or the suffer the consequences of their own choices. And unless they have some medical or mental condition in which their relationship causes them harm, we will not intrude unless asked to by both parties. We will be supportive and caring of both them. They are our family and as far as I’m concerned, they always will be.
Angie: Yeah, I guess that is what I would expect from the two of you. You guys know you are about the best parents in the world.
Bette: Well, I don’t know about that. Angie, our job as parents is to give you what opportunities within our abilities, to create the life you want. Our job is to give you guidance in what is acceptable behavior and what isn’t. But in the end, it’s you who wakes up in your body and in your mind and experiencing your life. We have never and will never be able to do that. It’s the same for Mary and Margaret. And if they find that the other makes them happy even for a little while, who are we to object? The only reason would be that they are causing harm to the other. There is no evidence of that. So, until that happens, we will be supportive of their decisions.

Maybe Bette & Tina could think of a way to assist Suzanne in her education. Maybe loans to cover whatever isn’t covered by the scholarships Suzanne can get. Loans due (or forgiven) after getting her degree(s) and finally earning a full-time professional salary.
It might be helpful to run any ideas past Angie before talking with Suzanne. To make sure it won’t damage their relationship with Angie. Or, damage Angie’s friendship with Suzanne.
Just a thought!
I’m really loving this ongoing story line about life. Or, at least the life of my favorite couple who happen to have a lot, a lot of $$$$$. Thanks
Annie,
Stay tuned. You are somewhat clairvoyant. Bette and Tina will have a conversation about this very thing. How can we (Bette and Tina) help Suzanne out without interfering with her life. You see, money is a powerful influencer of people and the last thing they want to do is influence Suzanne’s life. Their objective is to help her without her feeling some kind of debt of gratitude for this help. Its a fine line to walk. They have learned a lot of lessons from Helena… do people like me for who I am or for what I can do for them or have done for them or could do for them? You see, friends who are bound by favors are not friends at all… or if they are, they are only temporary friends.
Thanks for reading….
I have been so fascinated with this fic that I have not commented on it. I just love this family, and how they interact. I must say I was a little shocked when Margaret and Mary came out as a couple. I knew something was going on with them, but never guessed that it was that. I really am enjoying it all please continue.
It is not my plan to ever go into the details of the relationship with Margaret and Mary… I can say that there are all kinds of relationships. The fact is, that they want to be with each other as much as they can and want to share living space and a bed. They are affectionate with each other but that may as far as it goes. They are not going to disclose the intimate details of their relationships if there are any to disclose. The fact is that they are enjoying being companions. I just wanted to demonstrate that Bette worry about the two getting along was just totally uncalled for. And I wanted another opportunity for Bette and Tina to talk to Angie about relationships. And I also wanted to talk a little about labels…
Thank you for reading and commenting…. I am pleased you are enjoying this story. This Volume comes to an end soon – only 4 more chapters. I am not sure if I will continue this story beyond that. Oh there are lot more that will happen in this family’s life. Its a lot of work… I guess I just need a little encouragement to keep writing. Thanks you.
