They both struggled not to laugh at her mature wording, laced with impatience.
“You know you will lose pool privileges if you go in without our permission?” Bette asked.
“Yes Mom,” Angelica heard this speech every time they were about to go into the back yard. Even though she was a good swimmer, Bette’s thought was that it wasn’t possible to be too cautious around water.
“Shall we?” Bette waved her arm toward the back door.
Tina picked up her bag and made her way to the back of the house.
They were soon standing in the yard, Angelica on a blanket with some toys and the two of them considering the potted vine that had been placed just inside the gate.
“Do you have any idea where we should put it?” Bette asked.
“We have to maximize the sunlight and build up where it’s planted to allow for drainage,” Tina replied. She pointed to the back corner part of the yard. “That part of the yard gets great light all year round.”
“I’m glad the vine isn’t too big yet,” Bette said. “It would be too hard to move around the yard with anything less than a fork lift.”
“It’ll be easy to move in the barrel,” Tina replied. “Here, watch.”
She walked to the barrel, and stepped on its side while reaching across and pulling it over. She then rolled it to the desired location and tipped it back upright. She brushed the dirt from her hands in a self-congratulatory fashion.
“I’m going to get a few things from the car,” Tina said. “I did some research and I knew there were certain things you wouldn’t have.”
She walked out the gate to her car and Bette merely watched her exit.
“Mommy’s a good at this stuff isn’t she?” Angelica said as she continued playing.
“Yes she is,” Bette replied absently.
***********
“Are you almost done,” Angelica asked.
“Time for us to have a grape each,” Tina said as she patted down the last bit of dirt.
“That was a lot of work,” Angelica said, her disappointment at not having been swimming yet was evident. “But at least you’re done now.”
Tina plucked three grapes from one of the pyramid shaped clusters and held them in her hand as she rinsed them with the slowly running water from the hose.

Loved it. Angelica is too cute “Are you two going to kiss”, they should have said yes. They have a lot to put behind them, but I know they have enough love to get past it. It might be a little bumpy along the way, but they can do it.
Wow, that was good. Thanks!
Loved it JKS.Always wonderful.Soo sweet and warm. So much love, but there’s also so much Hurt to get over. I’m glad they’re talking about some of their heavier problems. Angelica is sooo cute. Just adorable. I want them to be a family again, i think Angie wants it more than us. Happy to have you hack from Vacat. Post soon!
Nicely done! It’s good to see they haven’t been completely thrown by the uh, morning’s activities. Hey, whose fabulous idea was that, anyway?
Glad you are back. Absolutely love this story. Can’t wait for more.
My favourite time of the day is to have B and T play with A…..luv it….
So nice to come back and read your writing again. Kudos!
“What was your favourite part of today?”…clearly, it was seeing a posting from you, Fins. Hope you enjoyed your holiday. Looking forward to your next post.
so good! thanks for the post!
Thanks JKS for an update hope they will be alright
[“We can’t keep trading hurt to make us even…” ] Very wise words; let’s hope they are put into practice. Wise writing!!
Yes indeed, progress is being made. Got to tackle the tough stuff. Not easy, but it must be done if anything worth having is to be achieved.
Great as always. Hope we would see a new chapter very soon. :P
oh yes your back, i missed this story. Thanks for posting.
jks…Yea! you’re back. I love this story and your writing. Please post as soon as you can. I loved the game they played before tucking in for the night. So sweet.
Thanks for the update. Angelica is so funny! I’m glad Bette and Tina are finally talking through some of their problems. There is hope for them yet.
It was a happy dance in Columbus, OH. You and Jwet in one sitting…thank you for this wonderful update
I loved this line: “They sat for a few minutes, guardians of her happiness, both quietly hopeful that there were more such days in their future together.” Thanks for continuing this wonderful story.
Swimmie, that was great, WOW. You make me feel everything that they are feeling. I read this chapter at work thi smorning and could not comment at the time. Angel is just darling, so grownup nd childlike at the same time. And knows just how to work her mother’s. Thank you for usch a tender and loving story and yes I know they will make the reconciliation work, it has to for Angel and for each of them because they belong together. Thank God for fanfiction writers like you that love our girls and want to keep them together. Thank you again.
This is great and can’t wait to see more about them talking. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Thank you for the update. They really do love one another if they can even stand to be in the same room after all that they have done to one another. I am glad that they still can share so much passion and love for each other that they can begin to try and reconnect.
Great Update!!! Thank you
“Are you two going to kiss?” Even Angelica can feel the love and passion her Moms have for each other. Thanks for posting JKS.
Ohhhhhh….you should let me give you an ‘A’, 5 stars!!!! …Going directly from SNS to your story, I marvel at the range of voices on this site. The characters names the same, but their tones are so different. It’s like what Zora Neale Hurston’s character Phoeby said about love, …”Love is lak de sea. It’s uh movin’ thing, but still and all, it takes its shape from de shore it meets, and it’s different with every shore.”…Thank you, immensely!
those issues will be there but talking is good and forgiveness is good…angie is cute and i hope their little family will be whole soon
YAYYYYYY!!! You’re back. Thanks for the update.
Welcome back and I’m sorry you’ve so much work….just quit your job and write all day LOL. Loved this post, great that they are communicating. Post as soon as possible please….
great they’re talking…and Angelica’s going to get them there…PPS
Now, that’s a really great update, JKS ! As usual, I must add. Pleeeease post ASAP !
just love it as always. glad your back. thanks.
just SO good — sigh
“What was your favourite part of today?” Bette asked. It was a game they played whenever she was tucking her in. “Me and Mommy came over to play,” Angelica replied, as she drifted off. She forced herself awake to finish the game. “What was your best part Mom?” “You and Mommy came over to play,” Bette replied quietly. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! :) Man I had to go back and see what happened in the last chapter after the mention of finding something a lot more fun. I was thinking, “We didn’t get an NC-17 so it wasn’t sex.” WRONG! lol
Hey JKS, More delight and then a little heartache. The naturalistic and open dislogue between Bette, Tina and Angelica was priceless. The ease was there as was the love and adoration. Angel certainly has the wisdon of a child with ther “Are you two going to kiss?” comment. You had me falling off my chair. It was pleasing to see both gals attempt to clear the past from their minds and gain some form of closure from past difficulties and memories. At least they are talking them through now. The rawness of this scene was poignant. Thank you so much for this latest magnificent update. Your Loyal Fan.
Thanks for the Update – looking forward to more JKS!
Glad to see you back! I’ve been reading your wanted story in the mean while. It’s a great one too. The two alphas make a very sexy couple. =)
Just another reader wanting you to know that I’m reading and love’n it…tks JKS
Great as always. Seeing a posting from you after all this time sure picked up my day! I’m glad that they’re together and relatively happy, working through things together, rather then just ignoring them or, well, being apart… Sorry, I’m not very coherent today. Fantastic. ‘Nough said. :)
Thank you for posting. They have alot to work out and I am glad you aren’t rushing it. I am glad one or both of them didn’t run away when the convo got rough. Please post soon.
Exquisite!
