Let’s give this another try, shall we?
“Yes,” Bette said quietly. “It’s packed away with a few things.”
“Maybe, if you get to a point where you’re willing to think of this as something to pursue seriously, you’d consider letting me put that ring back on your finger,” Tina said quietly.
“We have a lot to work through before…”
“I know that. I do. There’s a lot to work through,” Tina interrupted. “But I’m leaving this ring on my finger until you tell me I should take it off because you’re no longer willing to try. As long as there’s a chance, it’s a symbol of my effort to make this work.”
She placed her hand on top of Bette’s as it rested on the table.
“It’s a reminder of what we had, and of what we can have again,” Tina said.
“Do you want to join us at the park before we go back to the house?” Bette asked, unwilling or unable to respond to the direction Tina had clearly committed to.
“I’d love to,” Tina replied.
The three of them exited the Planet, Angelica holding one hand on either side of her, unaware of the bond that was slowly reforming between her parents.
Chapter 4
“I feel so at peace when you’re holding me.” Tina paused to contemplate the thoughts running through her head.
“It’s the way it should be,” Bette whispered. “It took time for us to get to this point, but we both know that it’s meant to be forever.”
“I’m never going to give you up again,” Tina said quietly. “As long as I have you by my side, we can get through anything.”
Tina felt Bette’s hand on her face and anticipated the touch of her lips.
”If you’re almost done cutting the carrots, I brought some broccoli for the veggie tray as well,” Dana said as she walked into the kitchen.
Tina let her hand fall from her face as she reluctantly returned from her reverie.
“Rinse it off and set it beside the cutting board,” Tina said, as she once again turned her attention to her task. “It’ll be good to have some healthier snacks around.”
Dana stood at the sink rinsing the broccoli and wondered whether or not she should comment on the developments she had just been made aware of.

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
