    Hindsight – Chapter 33

     

    I glanced back at our daughter, sound asleep in her seat, I’m sure the activity in the park would have her napping for at least an hour, I almost envied her…

     

    I walked the steps to what used to be the home we shared, unlocking the door to the home I desperately missed, walking over the threshold as I had done thousands of times before, yet all those times I took it for granted that I was walking into my home, but not anymore…

     

    How could I have taken for granted what we had, the love this house has been witness to, the intensity that I wanted to escape from was now something I craved, I turned around as I saw Bette walking up the steps, Angelica was laid back in her arms, still fast asleep and still looking the cutest she could ever be…

     

    “I’m just gonna put her down okay…”

     

    “Sure…, is it okay if I make coffee…?”

     

    “Of course it is; you don’t have to ask…”

     

    “Okay…, do you want one?”

     

    “Please… you know how I like it…”

     

    “Strong and black, like your women…?” it had always been a standing joke since she had confessed to her liking the one and only Halle Berry, and the words flowed from my lips without even thinking that it may not have been an appropriate line, under the circumstances…, I chastised myself for uttering the words, I watched her retreating figure, wondering if she had heard, but I saw her stall, she turned and threw her reply at me…

     

     

    “Actually, no…, my taste has changed…, I like my women to be blonde…” she turned back, her words flowing over her shoulder as she slowly continued toward the bedroom, “and creamy…, like the purest silk…”

     

    I stood and watched the last view of her as she turned the corner into Angelica’s bedroom, I smiled at her words and shook my head, I turned back to the kitchen to make our coffee, she really had a way of breaking the ice sometimes, and for that feat alone today I was truly grateful, it had been an amazing afternoon together, spending time in one another’s company with Angelica, family time…

    1. Jo as you may know this story always dismantles me…and now i have to say this with the utmost of love…WHY, WHY? ONLY ONE PAGE??? Can’t we have a few more?? Huh? P-p-please???? AHEM! Anywho..love this fic…please continue..

    2. I don’t get the “black like your woman” statement. Except for that who shall not be named, when did Bette ever date anyone black or even remotely black? Oh well, now that these two understand what the deal is, let’s get rid of Henry!

    3. Probie, it’s just a saying. I first heard it on the show “Good Times” when a woman (I don’t think it was Florida) who said she’d take her coffee like she takes her men. “Black and strong.” I have yet to hear “white and weak.” xD I don’t think Jo would have Tina make that crack if it was supposed to be about Candace. lol =)

    4. I pray, Jo, that Tina will have the strength to continue on this new road. That when she gets back to see Henry, that she will continue and not back down…..

    5. Jo, it hurts… Make it better? I know, I sound like a whiney 3-yr-old, but I’m sick, so I’m entitled… Still trusting you… barely… I expect more rough patches at some point, but they’re doing so well!

    6. Jo….No one does what you can do. Superb. Wasn’t JB wonderful in this last episode (6) ?? I didn’t quite get why she was sobbing before she kissed Jodi. Maybe you can elucidate either in a PM or in your author’s notes with your next chapter. You understand this sensitive stuff.

    7. this is so good, you make my hearth melt this words, they love each other so much that hurt! They are talking and is a big step please don’t leave them walk away.

    8. i am gonna sound mighty greedy when i say this……but i would love another chappy…..lol……i know, i know…..u posted 2 already……i can wait i reckon…..

    9. No, I really don’t think you’ll allow them to wallow in regret. Sounds like things are moving along swimmingly. Jo, I hate to say it but when I scrolled to the bottom of the comments I found that bizarre ad for natural male douche again. Is anybody else as puzzled by this as I am? What could be more unnatural? Well, anyway, it cracks me up (no pun intended) every time I see it.

    10. You know Tina’s dress (that you can not see because she is hidden behind Bette) is a different color blue. It has an almost purplish tint to it. This is really emotional but very needed. They both are laying it on the line and finally saying what is in their hearts.

    11. I feel for Tina… going back to Henry must be tearing her apart. I so hope Tina can hold on to her newfound clarity… and that she’ll remember her way back to Bette as SOON as the breakup with Henry is over. Hurry home, Tina!!! Thanks, Jo – your story is beautiful… as always.

    12. Two posts in a row…you are spoiling us and we could get used to it. Maybe Tina should just take Bette by the hand and drag her to the bedroom for just a nap and a cuddle. I’m sure they both could use it and T would be there when they wake up. Give Bette something to look forward to…. :) Love this story!

    13. Jo, You really know how to take your reader along this emotive and painful journey. It is difficult to read the hurt and not be affected. Only something worthwhile would require this anxiety as both gals are ready to admit their mistakes and share their fears. They will need to forgive themselves for all past mistakes but if the injured party bares no gridge that can be a easier task to do. Jo, this is a wonderful rollercoaster of a ride a we get insight into both Bette and Tina. Thank you so much for continuing to propagate this site with your literary talent. Your Loyal Fan.
