From Afar
“Oh I didn’t let her in at first. You have to know that when Kit heard what I
had done, she came over and to her credit listened to my side of things. Not that I had anything too good to say. I knew from the first moment that I was in
the wrong, I just didn’t realize the scope and depth of what was wrong.”
Bette pauses here in finishing her thought in her own
mind. Turning to look at Tina “Well we
have gone over all of that, you can imagine how Kit in her unique fashion gave
me the riot act with both barrels. There
was no coddling in Kit’s technique of tough love. The nicest thing I can say
about it was that it was a form of tough love that let us both be honest to
each other. We cleared a lot of air that
had been standing between us for an awful long time. But through all of my blaming myself and my
guilt, Kit taught me a few things that I was able to put to good use.”
“Really, what kind of things?” Tina is once again surprised
by Bette’s ability to open up and talk about these things.
Bette looks to Tina “Kit taught me to forgive myself. Not just the big stuff but the little stuff
too. Things will always happen. The thought that I could control it all was a
little unrealistic. I knew this on some
level but Kit made me face it in startling black and white. By starting with the little things, the
bigger things just fall into place. It’s
not about controlling all situations but how you deal with situations as they
arise, approaching them with a true heart.
Things happen as I said, the problem arises when things happen and I go
into denial about them.” Bette confides to Tina.
“Denial?” Tina looks at Bette confused “What do you mean?”
“Well you can relate to this as you had seen me do it many
times. I would look at something that
was obvious and either I would start hiding from it by refusing to acknowledge
it’s existence or I’d see it but lie about it.
Thus my denial.” Bette explains.
Here Tina looks at Bette with amusement. “You know Babe we all get that lesson sooner
or later in life. You just chose later
in life to learn it, I guess you just wanted to delay the maturing process.”
Tina starts laughing as she is trying to finish her statement but the end comes
out a little garbled.

This story is amazing!!! I hope helena gets it real good,although i do like her character both in fanfic and the show..lol I like the Shane/the babysitter(forgot her name as I am writing this), please give them more chapters!!!
im glad Bette is more and more confortable to talk to Tina about anything this is important to their relationship ok great chapter more please :o)
I hope with James information and the paper that Tina signed, Plus Dr Beautiful Wilson that every goes against Helene. Some is going to get a big A&&kicking. What has she got up her sleeve. thanks
I’m in heaven! Football and a post from Jwet! And tomorrow, Denver plays Monday Night Football. A girl can’t ask for much more!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
If your *note* is right, we get another post on Tuesday! The week is looking good for this chinesegirl!
j – im truly giddy. i love this story. im doing a happy dance cuz people are talking like ADULTS. aaahhhhh. but its still so odd to me. your such a nice woman and have this devious side. ahahaha. how you write hellno is excellent. she drips evil. thanks.
Al is so right; they are communicating like adults….me likes that very very much!!
Helena just gets more devioua with each chapter!
And the plot continues to thicken!
It’s amazing the lung capacity of a small child. Not to mention the way they can turn on and off their adorable factor at the drop of a hat. Nicely portrayed.
Nice to see how Bette and Tina’s communication skills are ‘maturing’. They seem to now realize that they are safe when talking to each other. Listening goes both ways as does support. I hope this continues as things get more complicated.
I you know, if I didn’t know any better I would almost expect Helena’s head to spin around and pea soup to come spewing out of her at any moment. She is a wicked woman, but people like that are usually think they are so above it all that they make those critical mistakes that will come back to bite her in the butt. I hope it takes a HUGE chunk out of her fanny.
I really enjoy the balance in your stories. It’s good to see Bette and Tina talk things out but it keeps moving and you leave us wondering too – great job :)
I love how this Bette and Tina talk. Why oh why can’t it be like this on the show.
Jwet: I am enjoying how Bette and Tina are able to reach forward and to understand how compromise and communication is such a necessiity to a healthy and lasting relationship. I also am enjoying Shane and her little endeavor. I am wondering as to how you are going to deal with Helena??? I am with all the others ans we will be waiting for the next chapter.
nice chapter. B&T communicating well and keeping Irene is a good idea. a playmate for Shane.
I just caught up with the last two chapters. I was enjoying all the B&T talk and closeness and then Helena appeared…She worries me. You’re great at plotting all this stuff out. Thanks.
Chasemenow owes me 5 dollars. I am willing to give it to anyone who can find a big enough eraser to scratch Helena out of this well written story.
maybe you could put in some Shane (or better Shane/Irene) story here. I wouldn’t mind (hint). Anyway, it’s amazing story and I’m looking forward to next chapters!
Hey mate, another fantastic chapter that is showing how our two love birds are communicating on more than one level. I just love the way Tina keeps on finding all the faceted layers on one Super Smooth Porter, Bette seems to continue to amaze Tina with all her supernesses. Loved it!
what the f… is helena planning?can’t she just disappear?? :)
Hey Jwet yes you can send Me all the Info! LOL! that was so great Please Thanks for all that I Love it anyway Helena she is going out of history soon! Hey Jwet Please continue post Soon Thanks!
