Let’s give this another try, shall we?
“Can we plant another one with the seeds?” she asked.
“Let’s try that,” Tina agreed. She reached for a small shovel and dug a hole beside the original vine. “Put your seeds in there sweetie.”
Tina covered the seeds with soil and watered it carefully.
“Thanks Tina, it’s beautiful,” Bette said as she reached across with her right hand and squeezed Tina’s left
“You’re welcome.”
“Are you gonna kiss or something,” Angelica asked, unable to hide the confusion in her voice.
“No sweetie, I was just thanking your mommy for the present.”
“Is it your birthday?”
“No, it’s not,” Tina replied. “I just wanted to do something nice for your mom. She let go of Bette’s hand. It was seeming less and less likely they would have any time to talk tonight. “Is it pool time now?”
“Yay!” Angelica sprung up and then remembered the rule of not running by the pool.
“Okay go ahead,” Bette gave the final permission. “But we’re going to watch from the side instead of getting in with you, okay?”
“I’ll be fine mom,” Angelica replied over her shoulder as she walked briskly toward the water. She sat on the top step and dipped her feet in. Slowly she moved down, acclimatizing to the temperature, her back to her parents.
Bette turned to Tina and leaned towards her.
“Thank you,” she whispered, before kissing her directly on the lips. She moved away just as quickly and they both turned their attention to Angelica.
They silently rose and walked over to sit on the lounge chairs.
“Do you want one of the floating mattresses?” Tina asked.
“How can I swim if I’m on a mattress?” Angelica asked.
“You are your mother’s daughter,” Tina laughed.
They watched silently, discussing not much of importance, while their daughter played the rest of the afternoon away.
***********
Angelica came out of the bathroom and walked into the kitchen where Bette and Tina were preparing dinner.
“I’m tired,” she said as she rubbed her eyes. “Can I have a rest?”
“You must be tired to ask to have a rest,” Tina said. “Go ahead and lie down in your room.”
“Can you come and tuck me in?”
“Sure,” Tina cherished these moments. She glanced over at Bette and saw the smile.

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
