Chapter 30 – Toronto – The Move
Bette saw that the place was comfortable, but it lacked the personal touches that Tina had put in their homes in WeHo and in New York. Tina simply did not take an interest in her Toronto abode. It was more like a crash pad than a home. This surprised Bette. There was no sense of permanency about the place.
Tina showed Bette to the guest room where they would be bedding down for the night. Tina immediately began to unpack her suitcase for the week and showed Bette where she could store her clothes. She gave Bette the top two drawers on the chest of drawers, and she took the bottom two. They only had about five outfits apiece and most of that they hung in the closet. Tina went to the living room and check her emails and made a call at the local office supply to deliver 35 medium size boxes and a couple of rolls of packaging tape and some tape dispensers. She also asked for a load of shipping labels and purchase a large label maker. She made arrangements for them to be delivered early the next morning.
Tina: Bette? Are you hungry? It’s getting close to 5:00 o’clock. Why don’t we go out for dinner and then swing by the grocery store to get something for breakfast and lunch for the next couple days. We are going to need some water and some coffee as well. I’m afraid that there is not much here in the way of food as I had shut things down for the hiatus period.
Bette: Sure sweetie, I could eat.
Tina: Let me get my keys to my vehicle and if you are ready, grab your coat and come on.
Bette: Do you still own a vehicle?
Tina: Yeah, I ask Doug not to sell it until after this week was over. I figured we could use it. So, what would like to eat?
Bette: I’m open to whatever you want. I’m sure I’ll find something on the menu which will meet my needs.
Tina: Okay, there is a nice café which has some American dishes and some French dishes. Let’s go there and eat first and then to the grocery store.
Out the door they went. They went to the basement parking garage and found Tina’s SUV. It was in bad need of a bath in that it had marks of having been in snow.

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….
