Chapter 30 – Toronto – The Move
Bette: What about your banking?
Tina: I used my New York bank account to pay all my bills up here. Oh, and I will terminate my utilities and cable. The manager of the complex can have the utilities turned on in the complexes name.
Bette: Well, sounds like you have thought this through.
The salads and the wine came to the table. Bette smiled at Tina and began to eat. She was happy just to be with Tina. And she was thrilled at what the trip meant to their life. Tina was cutting the cord to her life prior to returning to her. And Tina was doing it of her own accord and not because Bette had asked her to. Soon the plates of lamb chops came to the table. They were delicious – tender, wonderfully seasoned and cook just right. The potatoes and sautéed spinach were excellent. Bette commented that this was five-star restaurant quality food.
The restaurant had begun to fill as Tina had predicted when they were enjoying their coffee. They decided to pass on dessert since they needed to go to the grocery store. They would find something there if they wanted something sweet prior to going to bed.
Bette: I feel better now. Maybe I was just hungry. That was a wonderful meal, Tina.
Tina: It’s probably the infusion of water and coffee. You just needed some caffeine to kick start your engine.
Bette: So, shall we go on to our next chore? Shall I get the bill?
Tina: Absolutely not. This trip is on me. I’ve got it. But yes, I am ready for our next adventure which will be the grocery store.
Tina paid the bill and praised the chef for a wonderful meal and left a nice tip. Bette and Tina then put on their coats and walk to the car. They had only been in the restaurant about an hour and a half according to the meter.
The temperature was falling. The heavy coats they were wearing were totally necessary for their comfort. Tina turned the heater fan on and pulled out into the street and went a couple of blocks and then turned back toward the apartment complex. A couple of blocks from the apartment complex was a large grocery store. Tina parked and invited Bette to go with her.

What a surprising ending, Bette asking Tina to be her wife again.
Is it to soon? if it feels right for both of them, time doesn’t matter.
They have packed Tina’s stuff and are ready to move in a new direction, new jobs and looking for a new beach house.
Bibi,
I actually am glad that you were surprised. Is it too soon? I guess it depends on how you feel about these two. Bette and Tina have taken the time to reestablish their relationship. They have a reasonable understanding of what happened to break them up. Tina made the effort to come back and did it voluntarily. They are both older, mature women who know who they, I believe know each other, as well as any two people can know each other. Life has it limits and sometimes, you have to accept that there are risks in every decision you make. Tina has displayed that she is willing to do whatever it takes to be with Angie, and she loves Bette.
The choice to me for both of them is really rather simple. Take this opportunity to make a life together or say goodbye forever. If things do not turn out perfectly? Well, I guess that’s life. But in the eyes of my Bette and my Tina, it is better to have tried and lose than never to try at all.
Thanks for reading…
Well, well, well …. A marriage proposal!
I can’t say I’m surprised.
Tina really has several all ties with her past, with Carrie and with her job with Showtime. She set out to do this, she knew she wanted it, so made her plan and carried it through perfectly.
All the time Bette was by her side, encouraging her but not pressing or pressuring her. Making sure this was really what Tina wanted.
This more than NY I think was more probably more emotional for Tina, cos she now knows, everything is done and she just has to concentrate on her new life with Bette and Angie, her new job and looking for the perfect beach house for their future together.
Angie and Shane are going to be blown away by this news ….. perfect timing, I think !!
Most who have read this story have said they were surprised by the marriage proposal. I think that both Bette and Tina are somewhat surprised themselves. Not something Bette planned but felt that it was the right thing to do.
These two women are a pair of equals in their relationship. They are the left and right arm of the couple. Will they never have problems? Doubtful. There will always be something which will rub one the wrong way. But they have a plan on how to work those bumps, stops and starts out. They now have sufficient information and commitment and love to go forward with A New Life.
Thanks for your comment….
