Bette wanted her, warts and all; Bette wanted … her. Tina knew deep in her soul that she wanted Bette too. And today, she was completed the clean-up of her past three years choices. There was no fallback position just in case things didn’t work out. Tina was now all in and she felt good about it.
There was a knock on the door, and it was Bette. She was smiling as she said that there was a couple here to see her. Doug and Debbie were there to pick up the car. Tina greeted them and when to give them the two sets of keys to the vehicle. Tina thanked them for their assistance in selling the car. They assured her that they would have the transaction completed and the money forwarded to her within a couple of weeks. Tina asked them to keep 15% of whatever they got for performing the service. She told them where it was parked, and they wished her well and they headed out the door.
Tina got out her checkbook to write a check for the cleaning crew. She would hand it to them on the way out the door plus giving them each a twenty-dollar tip each for their prompt and quick service. Just as they were leaving, the manger came by and did a quick walk through. He was impressed that the apartment had little wear and tear as the result of Tina’s occupancy of almost three years. He assured Tina that he would have all the utilities turn over in the management companies name by the end of the day. They were well familiar with him and did work for him all the time. He assured Tina that the deposit would be applied to her rent, so she wrote a check for the balance of the rent. They agreed that she would only need to pay for half a month for April. So, she only owed an additional fifty dollars. Tina wrote the check and handed it to manger marking all debts paid in full. He then shook Tina’s hand and then shook Bette’s hand and offered to give her a reference or rent to her again should she ever have the need. She laughed. She appreciated his offer but doubted she would ever take up residence again in Toronto. And with that he was gone. Tina then phoned for a cab. They made one final tour to make sure they had all their belongings and hear a knock on the door.

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….
