“Hi” Tina said before offering a shy smile.
“Hey” Bette replied as her heart continued to race in her chest.
“I, um…can we talk?” Tina asked as she waved towards the lounge and looked over Bette’s shoulder. “Are you alone?”
Bette swallowed and nodded. “Come in.” She offered as she stood back allowing Tina to enter.
“We’re you sleeping?” Tina asked as she squinted to read her watch in the dark.
“No, I was just absorbed in something and lost track of time. I hadn’t realized how dark it had become.” Bette replied while she distracted herself by turning on a couple of lamps. “Have a seat.” Bette directed before adding “Would you like a glass of wine?”
Tina nodded gratefully. “I didn’t exactly plan to drop in unannounced again but I was in the area and wanted to apologize for Friday.” She explained nervously.
“There’s no need, really.” Bette said as she returned from the kitchen with a second glass.
“No, it was presumptuous to think you’d to be available just because I had something to discuss.” Tina replied resolutely.
“I’m sorry you had to learn about Abby that way.” Bette said as she sat down opposite Tina and poured the wine. She carefully slid the glass across the table to her ex-wife.
“Thanks” Tina said as she took hold of the glass and sampled its contents. “I was just thrown seeing you with someone else, as crazy as that sounds.” Tina admitted with a small shrug as she rested the glass back on the table.
“It doesn’t sound crazy.” Bette replied softly as she held Tina’s gaze for a second too long before they both looked away.
Tina cast her eye around the lounge. In the gentle lamp light she could see the changes Bette had made, changes which the darkness last Friday night had concealed. Photos of the two of them which sat on the bookshelf for years were missing. Tina’s heart broke a little as she realized that Bette had removed any sign of their past. She wondered if it was out of sight, out of mind or something more final.
“I hope that you might want to tell me what you couldn’t the other night.” Bette coaxed gently. She had watched intently as Tina looked around the room. She had seen the disappointment cross her ex-lover’s face when Tina saw the bookshelf. “Tina is something wrong with Angie?” Bette asked directly.

Great chapter hope that you dont take so long to post another chapter, I hope that once they are under the one roof they realise that, that is where they belong, poor Abby she never stood a chance

Gold star in hand, I write ‘thanks’ for continuing. Can’t decide how I want this story line to turn out – good thing it’s up to you. Please post again soon.
No, no way in hell could Tina be a farmer’s wife. I wonder if Abby will shit a brick when she finds out Tina will be sorta moving back in?
Glad to see a new chapter to your story. That was wonderful to read, thank you.
