    Foundations – Chapter 4

    Tina opened one eye and looked at the clock. 6:04. Why was it always morning? And why was the bed so cold? Bette must already be up.

    Maybe I’ll get breakfast in bed again, Tina thought happily. She snuggled down a little deeper into the covers and waited. Any minute now Bette would be bringing her a lovely tray. She hoped there would be fruit on it. She was in a fruit mood. Yes, any minute now…

    She must have dozed off waiting because she awoke 20 minutes later, with no Bette, no tray, no fruit in sight. She sniffed at the air. She couldn’t smell anything cooking downstairs. Oh, well. No breakfast after all.

    “Cereal it is,” she said, forcing her legs out from under the covers and into the cold of the room.

    She pulled on her robe and shuffled toward the bathroom. An unfamiliar sound coming from the nursery gave her pause. She stopped in her tracks, listening.

    Pushing open the door, she saw Bette sitting cross-legged on the floor, muttering to herself amongst several swatches of fabric, paint cards, and books of wallpaper samples. Her hair looked especially wild this morning as her head swung back and forth between the fabric and wallpaper.

    Tina randomly thought that if her maternal grandfather, a rough and ready Texan cowboy, could look at Bette now, he’d lean against the doorjamb, tilt his hat backwards a bit for a better view, and then say: “That thar gal ain’t right.”

    Tina concealed her smile with one hand until the urge to laugh subsided. “Bette?”

    Bette jerked her head up at the sound of Tina’s voice. “What?”

    “Um… What are you doing?”

    “I’m trying to decide on a color scheme for the nursery,” she said, enunciating each word as if Tina were slow on the uptake.  “What does it look like?”

    “It looked like you were working yourself up into an OCD frenzy at 7 in the morning, and making yourself late for work doing something on your own that we had agreed to do together,” Tina said sweetly. “That’s what it looked like, babe. But maybe I’m wrong.”

    Tina left the room, mood soured. She showered, dressed and peeked in on Angelica playing amongst her scattered toys in the living room.  She then headed to the kitchen and prepared her own breakfast, chopping up a melon with deliberate movements of the knife that were maybe a little too forceful. Bette appeared with Angie, looking completely unruffled. Tina kissed them both goodbye and left the house early for once, not irritated anymore, leaving Bette to deal with getting Angie ready on her own.

    1. Rau, OCD is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Cute chapter. Yah! It’s a boy! Totally missed your last post. Just read it. Helena was something else. Thanks! PPS!!

    2. Parker is a cool name. I was thinking as I was reading this story, ummmm, what name would Bette like. Maybe Ashton, Kai, Caleb, Collin, Keaton and I could go on and on. My choices, Kai, Ashton, Parker, and Keaton in that order., But most of all I love this story.

    3. Bette and Tina are such characters. It’s interesting just having the day in the life type interactions without serious drama. Parker sounds like a great name to me and it seems that it is growing on both Bette and Tina. :)
