“We’re meant to be together,” she said quietly as she traced her finger around the edges of the print. “I just have to be patient as you realize that too.”
She rose for the day, and slipped on her running clothes to try to chase away the cobwebs that had gathered during a restless night. She laced up her runners and was soon lost in the rhythm of each foot hitting the ground, her entire body focused on the demands of her activity.

“Hey Bette,” Alice waved as Bette and Angelica entered the Planet.
Angelica broke away from Bette and ran towards the table.
“Auntie Alice!” she said as she sprang up to sit on Alice’s lap.
“Take it easy Angel,” Bette gently scolded her.
“She knows I love it Bette,” Alice assured her before turning her attention to Angelica. “What has you so full of energy today?”
“Mom said we can go to the park after,” Angelica said carefully.
“A little bribery never hurts when you’re trying to get them to behave in public,” Bette shrugged. “I’ve been reading about common parenting mistakes, and this seemed like one I should use a bit more to my advantage. Where is everyone?”
“We’re the first ones here,” Alice replied. “Should be a full house though. Dana was doing a training run before coming and Shane…well, I’m sure Shane will be here soon. God knows where she’s waking up though.”
“Tender ears Alice,” Bette said with a smile as she winked at Angelica.
“Right, sorry,” Alice said.
“Hello ladies,” Kit said as she approached the table. “I was wondering if I could steal this little girl away for a few minutes while I take a break in my office. I’ll bring her back when breakfast is served.
“Can I Mom?” Angelica asked plaintively.
“Sure sweetie. Be good for Auntie Kit though okay?”
“I will,” Angelica assured her, slipping off of Alice’s knee.
“Thanks Kit,” Bette said. “She gets so bored.”
“No worries,” Kit waved off Bette’s gratitude. “Gives me some special time with her too you know.” She was soon being dragged to the back of the restaurant to embark on playtime.
“Tina,” Alice waved toward the entrance of the restaurant.
“Good morning you two,” Tina replied. “Where’s Angelica?” She directed this question to Bette.

I love your stories, i read them more than once over the years.
But i don’t have time to reread this story, have to work very early in the morning , but i hope to read it when i am back tomorrow. I am looking forward to it!
You are a incredible writer and i do hope that you will find the time to write more! For now, thank you again for returning!
I was so happy to see your name again, I love your stories, off to read now,, but please continue to post more stories.,, please post soon.
Thanks for the shoutout! You’re an incredible writer with a natural style that pulls the reader in and makes one sorry when the chapter/story ends. Your writing demands rereading many times. It’s just that enjoyable. :-)
Brilliant, thanks so much for this. 62 Pages of pleasure.
Enjoy your stories which are good to read more than once.
Look forward to keeping on swimming :-)
I love this story, as I always enjoy reading your work!
Loved it, thanks so much. You are such a good writer!
Glad you are back,I love your stories.
I certainly remember this story and I love it more now. Thanks for updating the language so the profane language is present. It’s not that I am a complete potty mouth but let’s be realistic. Several of the stories that have transferred over have blanks or asterisks instead of the actual language. In my opinion, when this happens, the stories lose some of their authenticity and the characters lose their edge. I realize that it takes effort to fill in the blanks especially in longer stories. So thanks for doing that.
I find stories harder to read with the asterisks inserted…it’s like a jolt of reality interfering with my escapism. I had to get to the task of editing them out. I do plan to work on more stories; some easier than others because of where the files are. This story was first posted almost 10 (!) years ago, so the digital file was more challenging to retrieve. I’m not much for cursing, but the occasional well placed F-bomb can really get someone’s attention.
@JKS I can’t believe this story is almost 10 years old! It reads now as fresh as it did then. I really love your stories because they are so well written with realism, humor, sarcasm and authenticity. It also helps that for us ORs (Original Readers), it follows canon for the characters and storylines. :-)
WOW, what a fabulous surprise seeing you back here, JKS! So glad you found your way back here and have even edited! Let me know if you have any questions or need any help!
Wonderful story. Thanks for sharing again!
Thanks for your effort of editing and for giving us this wonderful story again.
It’s still as beautiful as I remember it from reading your story for the first time a few years ago.
Finally I managed to finish reading!
I was slowly reading this story.
And I confess that it was a great trip.
Pretty and wonderful.!
And to think that have passed since the 10 years, but
It remains very current.
The entire universe.
Don’t remember seeing this before and it was wonderful, took me back a ways. So great to have you back giving us something to read from you. Wish other former writers would come back to us, all of you are valued and missed greatly. So many of the stories are not completed, would be so nice if they were. Again welcome back, looking forward to more. Thanks.
Loved this! I love your writing. I’m so glad I’ve come across your stories, be it years later but better late than never lol
