It was close to 7:00 pm when they grabbed their purses and their heavy coats and headed out the door. They stopped by the dumpster and headed for the car.
Tina: What are you hungry for Bette?
Bette: Food. You’re driving. You get to decide.
Tina: Okay, how about some seafood? There is a nice restaurant who serves a variety of seafood. They serve fish from the cold waters around Newfoundland.
Bette: Sounds wonderful.
They drove through town and arrived at another restaurant which had an unusual store front appearance. However, this restaurant had a parking lot next to it which was about three quarters full.
Tina: We don’t have reservations. I hope we can get seated fairly quickly. This is the middle of the week, and we are arriving after the rush hour, so it should not be a problem.
Bette: Well, it will be whatever it’s going to be. Let’s give it a try.
Tina then put her arm through Bette’s arm and walked around to the front of the building. They went in and asked for a table for two. The hostess seated them right away. They decided to order some chardonnay and some water while they reviewed the menu. Bette had a hard time making up her mind on what she wanted to eat. So, Tina suggested that she get the broiled fisherman’s platter which was a lobster tail, some shrimp scampi and a broiled fish filet which the server said was halibut. She decided she wanted some seasoned rice and asparagus with it and a small salad as a starter. Tina decided she wanted the same thing except she wanted broccoli instead of the asparagus. The night was light and festive. Things had gone well, and they were going to complete their task just as Tina had planned. The apartment was almost empty and the last of the work look like it could be achieved by midafternoon tomorrow.
The food arrived and was very good. They were really pleased with their selection and finished the evening off with a cup of coffee. Bette and Tina were just comfortable being together. Nothing was pressing for their attention. They talked about the future – the upcoming trips, the summer, the possibility of a new home on the beach, Angie’s senior year in high school, their new jobs. They relished the idea that this journey was going to be fun and fulfilling and they were going to do it together.

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….
