“Yeah…, okay…”
She got the blanket from the stroller, spreading it on the ground for us to sit. She unclasped Angelica and stood holding her hand, I smiled as Angelica started to walk around, her loving mother following her every move.
We settled on the blanket, all tucking into the mini feast I had brought, I watched as Bette devoured her lunch, seeming to enjoy every bite, Angelica matched her eagerness, inspecting everything she picked up before putting it into her mouth.
We both watched her, smiling at her enthusiasm; I also saw how Bette kept glancing at me, almost checking to see if I was still there, to see if this was really real.
“Can I ask you something now…?” I said to her as she finished her apple.
“Sure…”
“Why were you making yourself sick…?”
She gave an ironic laugh…, “straight to the point I see…”
“I just… it’s not something I’ve known you to do before…, I just wondered… why now…?”
“Million dollar question…”
“Bette…”
I saw her sigh, as if giving her courage to speak, “I uh…”
“Its okay if you’d rather not talk about it…”
She just shrugged her shoulders, “I just…, wanted to make the pain go away…”
“But how does doing that make it…” she interrupted my words as she looked directly into my eyes.
“I wanted to ‘feel’ as empty as my life felt…”
“But it wasn’t empty…”
“It was and is…, my life won’t ever be the same full life as I had before Tina…, I haven’t got all of those things in my life anymore…”
“Do you want them in your life…?”
She stood up, looking down at me, Angelica stood too, holding out her hand to Bette, “I have Angelica back in my life… and… that’s a start…, but there are some things that will never change in my life Tina…”
“What things…?”
“Something that will never change…, you T…, I’ll never stop loving you… ever…” she turned with Angelica, walking to the swings…, but not before I saw her eyes well as she said the words.
"I love you too…" I knew she wouldn’t hear me, but I needed to say it aloud regardless…

Jo, how could your other half be angry. Afterall, you did write beautiful love letters to her,eh?Housecleaning is boring and redundant. Writing is esoteric and freeing especially the way you write.Now, get them together, please.
Maybe soon she will have Tina back in her life so they both can be whole again. Yet another great post. PPS
Things are starting to line up, but there’s still the matter of Henry. Maybe you can hire him to do the chores while you write some more. ;)
Since Henry is so noble and understanding, can’t he just remove himself from Tina’s life like a gentlemen.
If Bette loves Tina…and Tina loves Bette…WTF is she still doing with Henry…that is not fair to ANY of them…make it right Tina…you don’t have to be in Bette’s bed right away but give her some hope…give her something to fight for. Don’t stay in a LOVELESS relationship when you can have so much more. Thank you for this story Jobadge.
You are teasing us here, but it is brilliant Thanks PPS
great! great chapter! definitly they are walking a very good road, i hope they will find the way to continue walking together cause they have so much love to each other.
Silent reader – second post !I am as hooked on this story as Redglitter. Bette made the big declaration, up to Tina now to act on it.
Yay! The bigger step I wanted! Great Jo! Now I wonder if Bette happened to hear Tinas words… hum… now Im curious…
Let’s see… Tina is not happy… check… Bette obviously is not either… check… Tina still loves Bette… check… Bette still loves Tina… check… Angelica would love to have her mothers reunited… check… The gang would be thrilled to have them reunited… check… Henry wouldn’t be so thrilled to have them reunited, but hell, who cares… check… Oh, and Bette’s body is so obviously ready for that chocolate cake’s feast that they had going for a while, in order for her to fit her delicious Porter ass back in those perfect Levis again… check… Okay! I think we now have all the main ingredients for a Tibetteforever delight “a la Jobadge”!!! Thanks mate!
Now it is Tina’s turn to be open about what is in her heart. She does still love Bette and Bette needs to hear that from Tina’s own mouth. Then she needs to tell Henry and fix that mess. Tina feels that loss also, let’s see if she will do something about it.
I don’t think I’ve ever been happier to see Pandora Box opened. Bring it on. PPS As for your partner tell her you are doing a public service.
Pandora’s name means “all gifts”, her reputation of bringing all things evil into the world was clearly the reactionary spewing of the patriarchs, who in victory clearly did not find their minds or souls at ease. I think they were also nervous over the size of their dicks. But I digress. So if Tina says “I love you” so quietly as not to be heard, has she actually said it? She’s still infuriating! Damn it, Tina! You HAVE opened Pandora’s Box of many gifts. Dive it, fool! And Jo, thanks for getting us to the park. It was -1F when I left for work and 1F when I got home. I’m telling you, this ain’t no picnic.
And Jo, I neglect my housework to read. Fortunately a studio, not too vast a mess.
HAHA, I agree with Probie. As for you, Ms. Queen of the One-Pagers, how dare you insult MY post’s length?! I think Tina should stop trying to hide; there’s no running from La Porter. Now if she could just the words TO Bette….
seriously every time i see u post i get excited!!
You have a pass to neglect the housecleaning…there are legions of fans that are eagerly awaiting more posts…surely your other half will understand that. I feel so bad for Bette…she’s glad she has Angelica back but she aches for more…please let Tina give her more.
Why does Tina say things when she knows Bette wont hear them?! uh, tina its time to make up your mind… another wonderful chapter Jo! Thanks!
WOW!!! Great Stuff. I just love it. Thanks PPS
Tina, Bette isn’t telling you anything you don’t already know. Either step up or leave it alone. At least let her enjoy the day with her daughter. This day shouldn’t be filled with tears or near tears for her. Seven weeks, five days of tears and worse. Let her have a few rays of sunshine today. This talk of schedule is bittersweet, she’ll get the baby but not the baby momma.
Yeah I’m with Sky…Tell your woman, that we all excused you from choars. I had to blow them off, just to read!!!Gotta luv this story. I CAN NOT wait to see them reconnect with just a kiss. You have already started the slow burn. pps
Everytime I see a new post from you I get a flutter of excitement in my belly as I am completely hooked on this story. This chapter was wonderful as always- I can’t wait to see what happens in the next. :)
If no one heard the I love you too did she say it or think it. If both still loves the other one why can’t they talk. Is Tina trying to make Henry look good to Bette are is he really that caring? thanks
