    Chapter 4 – ANGIE COMES HOME

    ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

    Late Afternoon at the Porter Home

    Shane, Quiara and the security detail managed to get Angie through the throng of reporters, camera people and curious on lookers. Pierce had successfully distracted them with a brief campaign update explaining that Bette would address the press that evening with a full statement.

    After exchanging greetings and hugs, Shane and Quaira chatted with the Porter – Kennards for several minutes inside the house. Tina and Angie shared a heartfelt long embrace. Tina placed a loving kiss on Angie’s forehead and wiped a few tears from her own cheeks. Angie gave her Mama a kiss on the cheek and put her arm around her, not wanting to let go just yet. The emotion of each missing the other evident on their faces, yet the joy of their reunion bringing their shared love for one another mixing in.

    Quiara and Tina touched base on both being back in LA, Quiara permanently and Tina for the next two weeks.  Soon, Shane and Quiara took their leave. The younger couple headed home to Shane’s newly purchased house to await the press coverage of Bette’s speech later that night. They wanted to allow Angie, Bette and Tina some alone time with each other and promised to join them soon for lunch at Shane’s new café bar, Dana’s.

    Shane’s had affectionately named her new café/bar for one of their former friends that had died several years ago from breast cancer, tennis star, Dana Fairbanks. Shane had purchased the café/bar for a business opportunity and to have a challenge for her next career move since she recently returned to LA from living in Europe. She wanted to keep busy and she liked the atmosphere of the place.  She immediately saw it’s potential. She was determined to make it a successful gathering place for the lesbian community.

    The Porter – Kennard family walked into the kitchen and Bette poured glasses of iced tea for all of them.  Angie relayed all the details of her driving test to her parents. After congratulatory words and hugs for Angie from both her parents for passing her test, Bette suggested that Tina and Angie spend some time together to catch up with each other.  She knew Tina wanted to reconnect with their daughter. Bette said she would check in with Pierce and Dani on campaign developments.  She needed to get that copy of the speech to commit to memory. They agreed to meet back up after Bette spoke with Dani. So, they had gone their separate ways with Tina and Angie walked off together arm in arm and Bette went in search of her team.

    1. This is a very good chapter….family time. Tina reconnecting with Angie and realizing how much she misses by not living in the same house with her daughter. Everything is going well. Why do I get the feeling this is the calm before the storm?

      The explanation of why Tina left that she gave her daughter was just the superficial story. It seems a shallow, but perhaps that is all that Tina wanted her daughter to know. The part about “I wanted you to have two whole parents and not one and half.” That to me says that once Tina was whole, she would reunite with her family, but she got a divorce instead. We have a lot more to go to find out what happened that made Tina decide that the best path for her life was away from Bette. And does Bette know what happened to break them up?

      Tina appears to be in the same mindset as she announced upon arrival. She is here to support her family in their time of need, and then she is off to her new life. But, hey, its only been a day. There is still another two weeks to find out what is going on with Tina and what her future intentions are. Perhaps we will find out why she left and why she felt like only a half of a person.

      Great writing….nice flashback with the car scene. And no way is Angie ever getting that car. She has had that car for what 20 years? Why would she give it up now?

      I am liking this story….look forward to knowing more about what is going on with Tina and with Bette. And is there hope for them to be reunited in the future?

      Thanks….

      • Hi Martha,

        Thanks for your continued support for this story!

        Yes, Tina’s simple explanation for her departure from her marriage and family is just the surface of the underlining issue. We’ll get to all that as the chapters unfold. Hey, like any story, it;s got to be told in stages, Lots more to come.

        And you’re right – it’s only still the first day. It might be fun to think that Tina & Bette would solve their problems instantly, but that would be way too soon.

        I thought the flashback scenes would provide some interesting situations for our fav couple & bring a little romance into the story because right now there’s just thinking and analyzing going on.

        The car scene was a way to have them connect in happier times.

        Stay tuned for more fun stuff to happen!!!

        Thanks so much.
        Stay safe!

    2. Thank you for the chapter!
      I like Bette’s trip down memory line about her Saab (by the way good that this car still existed in your story, because like I remember last we see it in s3 TLW).
      And of course great family time between three of them – love it. But about next hangout Tina with Angie and Jordie – I don’t remember – does Tina know about Jordie influence – skip classes, smoking a pot?

      • Happy Monday Zhenya,

        Thanks as always for reading.

        Although Bette can be very progressive & up to date on many things, she has a sense of history & she cherishes those things for her family. As I have noted, that car has a lot of memories for her & she won’t let it go, not even to her daughter.

        Tina will explore the issues with Jordi’s behavior in the next few chapters. Remember, she’s Mama Bear, so she’ll be looking out for her baby cub – Angie!!

        Thanks again for your support.

        See ya next chapter!!!!!

    3. Wonderful chapter!

      I miss them as a family! Gen Q crushed my heart and i hope you will heal it.

      The memory of the Saab was so sweet and romantic.

      There are still feelings between them and the explanation Tina gave was to simple but maybe that is what Angie needed to hear. Tina. To be whole again didn’t meant she had to divorce Bette.

      I am looking forward to the whole explanations about Tina’s reason to leave her family. They still love each other so much. It must be so hard for Bette to hold in her feelings while Tina is there.

      I love the funny parts in your story, keep Them coming!

      Thank you!

      • Hi Bibi,

        Hope your week ahead is great.

        Another chapter in!!!!!

        Tina is a slow burn at the moment, but things will heat up for her soon!

        Yes there are definitely still deep & strong feelings on both sides for them. But Tina needs to work through that & get to a happy place for both herself & her family. She has a lot to make amends for.

        With this story, I wanted to offer some sweet moments & HOPE!!!!

        We are all experiencing traumatic situations world wide with this Covid 19 pandemic & the mess that was season 1 on Gen Q. I thought a little lighter storyline would be appreciated.

        At this time, we all need to believe that happy endings do still exist if we work for them.

        Yes, Bette is having a hard time, but is also super cautious about getting her heart broken again.

        One more chapter for this timeline day & then we move forward to the next two weeks of action.

        Glad you are enjoying the humor I try to instill in the story.

        Will post again soon.

        Keep safe!

        Thanks

    4. I love the way you are unfolding this. There are so many options for how these two ended apart. I think the one consistent thing is that they still love each other. Angie is definitely the bond for both, but once she is grown the bond will have to be sustainable for Bette and Tina. I guess we will find out if they have done enough work on themselves.

      Ya got me intrigued…

      • Hi SuperK,

        Thanks so very much for your comments & interest.

        I love your stories too!!!!!!

        Yeah, its a bit of that slow burn right now as we establish some ground work for them. There are many chapters to come & much more togetherness for them.

        We get little hints from Angie as to how Bette has changed & a few thoughts from Tina as well. Through Bette’s actions we will see if she really has changed for the better. This goes for Tina as well.
        We all know that actions speak so much louder than words.

        I wanted this Tina to be stronger and have a voice in her destiny & not be pushed around like she was in OG & now in Gen Q.

        Yes, Angie is their glue at the moment & will always be their link to each other. Since the pilot episode of OG, Bette & Tina have wanted a family. We will discover if they have the fortitude to bring that family back together for the future.

        Thanks so much!!!!!!

    5. Still playing catch up and enjoying it!

      Love the family connection and obvious love the three of them have for each other.

      Flashbacks are a great addition to the story.

      Why though. Is Tina staying in an Hotel? That does not seem right.

      Waiting for you to take me further on this great ride but have to sleep now. Be back catching up tomorrow.

      Stay safe
      SG

    6. Update for SassyGran,

      About Tina & the hotel – she won’t presume that she would stay at Bette’s house when she returned to LA – would she?

      Chapter 5 reveals a little more about this & then Chapter 6 answers your question for sure!

      Glad that you are enjoying the adventure.

      Lots more to tell & explore.

      Thanks so much for your kind words.

      Sleep well & stay safe!
