Tina was in her car questioning herself about why she ever thought she should go back to work when her cell went off. At first it startled her as she was so deep in thought about having just left her most precious being at home with someone she barely knew.
Hello Tina answers quickly to prevent it from rolling to voicemail, not stopping to see the caller ID.
Hey there are you on your way back to the world of the working? Came this voice she would recognize anywhere. Bette The mere sound of her voice was like a calming caress against her rattled mind this morning.
Bette Tina whispers back to her phone. Yes, I finally got away this morning.
Tina was grateful for Bettes call. She had talked to Bette by phone two or three times over the last few weeks, enough that Bette felt comfortable coming over for some tea and spending time with Anna. Its enough that they seem to getting over there awkwardness with each other. Tina hoped that they were building a solid basis for a friendship that would make Bette feel comfortable enough to be in Annas life
Was it rough? Bette simply asks already knowing the answer.
Yeah Tina responded. Not really saying much with her words but more with the tone of her voice.
Bette didnt really need Tina to say much to understand the emotions she was going through. Well I just wanted to see how it was going. Youre going to be fine you know but if you need anything call me OK? Bette offers.
Tina just smiles to herself, how could she tell Bette she had already done plenty by just remembering and calling? OK, hey thanks for calling.
Sure thing, have a great day. Theyre lucky to get you back. Bette says hanging up.
Tina thought Yes they are driving the rest of the way to the center with a new attitude and ready for any new tasks the Center will bring.
Walking in the door felt good. Tina hadnt realized that she had missed this place but now that she was back a good feeling was coming over her. Walking up to her desk the first thing that strikes her was the huge flower arrangement that was placed dead smack in the center. The flowers where a gorgeous arrangement of tropical hibiscus, bird of paradise with such vibrant colors that they made you feel alive. Pulling off the card Tina once again was left wondering who could have sent them as the card only said:

Bette in the kitchen I LOVE IT..Tina is loving every minute..They so need to be together..PLEASE POST SOON
That was so great!
“Standing in the front door, Tina just looked at her baby as the sitter picked her up and waved her little hand at Tina in goodbye. With tears in her eyes, Tina tore herself away and ran to her car. She needed to get out of here before she lost her resolve and threw the sitter out and stayed home for good.”
Those words brought tears to my eyes remembering how hard it was to leave my daughter after the maternity leave was up! I don’t know of many moms who successfully manage to arrive at work the first day back without loosing their mascara! Thanks for that!
Starting my day off right with your adorable story;P Omg…Bette is such a sweetheart!! Cooking…and was she responsible for the cleaning as well?! She just amazes me with every chapter you submit. =D<~I can't stop smiling...you're responsible for that. Thanks Jwet, please post soon, i would love to see what Tina's reaction is to this new non-selfish & loving Bette Porter=)

wo! Bette? Cooking? Never thought it! I’m glad I checked before turning in.
Looks like Tina has more ideas for the grant than Bette originally thought?
Great story and good to know we have 20 or so chapters to look forward to!
Have a good start to the new work week.
Happiness is me, with a good episode and a good chapter.
Methinks that Bette wants to be doing some other kind of cooking with Anna’s mom after Anna goes to bed…but I think that’s a part for a little longer down the line. Nicely done.
Dude okay Bette is cooking for Tina. Wow she really has changed and is in love. Awesome chapter as always. I love that Tina has her own life too.
Jwet, so cyber coffee it is then… (although a real one would b much much better… :D)
Bette cooking? Pls tell me she’s not just reheating food she bought but she’s actually cooking everything from scratch!!! I can see it in my head now… yes… good food she’s cooking! U know wat they say “the way to a man’s heart” (but in this case woman’s!)
Love it…

Ooh Bette in the kitchen cookin up some loving! Love it. Please continue and I know you will with twenty or so chapters left…
I only discovered this site a few days ago. I read your whole story from chapter to chapter in a matter of hours-consequently, gaining a numb arse. I was intoxicated by the story and the way inwhich you bring the characters to life. I’m very impressed and …hooked! I await your next posting.
Hello babes,
Have been away for 3 days and come back to three whole new chapters. Wowwee!!
As for your cliffhanger am now demented to see what will happen next.
How did Bette get Anna? Did she have something to do with the baby sitter? Did Bette get the house cleaned? Bette cooking?!!.
Hoping that all these and more will be answered in you next post.
Looking forward to tomorrow.
RD
PS – this story lightens my day everytime I read a chapter.
Love it. You out do yourself each time. Bette cooking with Tina at work, love that.
Excellent post, can’t wait for more.
Very nice, Bette is Martha Stewart in disguise.(Bette the domestic goddess, aahh)
Loved this chapter.
Thank you.
Now that is a nice home coming, hot food and a hot woman cooking it – what more can a beating heart ask for!!
i adore this story, it makes me so happy – Bette taking care of them sounds wonderful!
People forgets that Bette can clean house cookingm At some point in her life surely she can cook,not like Tina or Lasra,but she can cook.
ooooo – Bette all cute and sexy in the kitchen – the heart of the home, the heart of the woman ?? – Hell yes !! Go Bette – seduce that woman back to where they both belong. Love it, Thank you !!!
