Cure-all, Chapter 16
Bette returned his smile, a bit surprised but greatly delighted by Tina’s grandfather sudden familiarity. She also discreetly sighed with relief, having been very nervous about making a good impression on the man who was so dear to Tina.
"It’s really nothing, Mr Kennard." She answered, "And please call me Bette… ‘Professor’ always makes me feel like one of those pompous theoreticians who spend their time boring people with their intellectual nonsense."
Tina’s grandfather laughed out loud, and putting his hand on Bette’s shoulder, he started leading her toward the house.
"You know Bette, you might not believe this, but I actually had the chance to meet Joseph Meister, the first man to be vaccinated against rabies."
"Really?… Well, it’s very interesting because I wrote a publication about him when I worked at the Pasteur Institute." The brunette told him.
"You did?" The old man exclaimed with obvious delight, "Well Bette, we seem to have one thing in common!… Meister was an Alsacian you know. To be honest, I rather knew his son, really…"
Bette nodded with genuine interest as she listened to Tina’s grandfather and let him guide her inside.
As she watched them disappear inside the house, Tina felt her heart burst with a myriad of emotions. She had been looking forward to introducing Bette to her Pappy. She couldn’t explain it, but she had this odd feeling that they could only get along well… The way Bette had intentionally tried to pass over her grandfather’s mistake had not escaped her, and not only was she deeply moved and warmed by her consideration, but she also felt some sort of pride about the gesture. As if it was essential to her that Bette would impress her grandfather… And she had impressed him, Tina was certain of that. She had rarely seen her grandfather get that familiar with someone in just a few minutes. And she knew it was only a matter of time before Bette won him over.
How couldn’t she?… How could her grandfather not fall under the spell of such a kind and intelligent woman. Not to mention considerate and sweet… Oh, and brilliant!… Yes, Pappy would be very impressed by all of her wonderful achievements… And of course, how could he not be captivated by her amazing beauty… Her eyes… Her smile… Her low and sexy voice… The grace of her walk, of her gestures… The rise and fall of her chest when she breathed… The shine of her hair and of her skin… The amazing softness of that skin on her lips…
Just as her thoughts were engaging on a tempting but forbidden path, Tina was brought back to reality by the deep voice of her grandfather calling from inside.
"Tina, do you have any intention of joining us anytime soon, my child?"
A huge smile spread across her face. She was unbelievably happy and in that instant, nothing in the world mattered more to her than spending the next few hours with her grandfather… and Bette.
"I’m coming, Pappy!" She shouted, hurrying inside with a barking Mopsel close behind her.

Tina is so in love with Bette. Too bad she is still married to Helena because it is Bette that holds her heart.
Bibbity bop!
yay!!!!! thanks for posting. c.kennard u are going to fall in love with bette like ur little child haha. its all in the family. ppvssssssss
but of course, how could Bette not win everyone’s heart…
Oooooh, our Tina is completely smitten ! That’s so cute ! And I knew Pappy would love Bette. How could he not fall under the spell of Miss Porter indeed ? As a matter of fact, how could ANYONE not fall under her spell ? This was a very very beautiful chapter, K. Loved it !
Come to think of it, how is Bette going to break the news to Tina that she has to leave for Santaragua ( or whatever was the name of that place the little boy was from ) for an indeterminate period of time ? And how excruciating is it going to be for her to have to leave now ( no matter how passionately she loves her job ) ! I can’t wait to read more of this !
That was great!
