Lifeless Chptr. 6
Bette had gotten home that night after Tina had said that she didn’t want to keep her anymore than she’d already had. Bette insisted that she was more than welcomed to call the office and talk to her anytime she had any more problems. Tina took Bette’s words at face value, although she knew that Bette was being sincere, she also felt a little bit to exposed to her doctor who never asked to be put into this position.
Bette had apologized profusely for making such open and misguided comments about motherhood. Bette had walked to the door with Tina close behind her, just so she could lock up. Bette was still feeling like she was to blame for the way Tina was dragging herself through these terrible emotions. Had she have been more conscientious of her company, she would’ve never been the one to make Tina feel so bad right now.
“Tina,” Bette was caught up trying to find the right words to apologize again for her mindless remarks. “I really am sorry if I caused you; in any way, to doubt the joy that you’re feeling about this pregnancy. Please believe me, that was never my intention.” Tina’s eyes softened a bit as Bette spoke and she watched as her doctor tried to back peddle and apologize for her thoughts just for her comfort. “There are so many things that you’re going through right now you don’t need my crazy list of irrational fears on top of that. Really this time when…”
“Please stop.” Tina said placing her hand on Bette’s flailing forearm, which worked to still her movements and voice. “Apologizing for how YOU feel, doesn’t suit you.” she shook her head softly while keeping eye contact. “I like that you told the truth, believe me there are enough people in my life sugar coating things for me.” the tone in Tina’s voice and how her body adjusted to her speech told Bette that she was relieved and almost settled by tonight’s revelations. “It’s really,” Tina paused to find the right word she was looking for to explain how she felt, “almost invigorating to be around someone who speaks so candidly about the reality of everything. Don’t ever apologize for that.”

I’ve missed this story. Thank you for posting. Excellent.
Will Bette and Rick has some sort of kinship. huummmmm. More………….
love this story… and i also love the way they are becoming friends.. great job… pps
So glad you’re back. Love the story. Love their interaction and the way in which it is becoming easier for each of them to be in the company of the other. This is helping Tina so much to break that iron hold on the idea of not being a mother and it’s also helping Bette to see her patients as people and not only as medical subjects, especially Tina. The friendship is developing so slowly and it is allowing them to fully see the other person. Wonderful update. Thanks for posting.
So cute.
Thanks so much for posting. I’m glad Tina is able to open up to Bette about her fears and anger. The emotional intimacy seems to be melting Bette a little too.
Missed your story.Thank you for the update.
Now I remember this. PPS
Hey Nettababy03, That was wonderful. I love the gentle motion of Bette and Tina in this tale. They are every edging nearer each other. What was amazing was Tina’s confession that she was having this child for Rick and that she is totally overwhelmed with the reality of her situation. Becoming a parent is the most important thing most of us do. This is now hitting Tina hard. And then there is Bette; she is breaking all of her self-imposed rules and fratenizing with a patient. Instead of freaking her out this is opening up a new world. One Bette is beginning to like. I love that she shares so much with Rick – total control freak – and with Tina – fear of failing as a parent. I really can’t wait to read more of this magical adventure. Please post soon. Your Loyal Fan.
That was great!
