    Lifeless Chptr. 8

    “Yea, I just realized what time it was when you pulled up.” Tina softly spoke and still her body was listless, and her presence was very quiet.

     

    Bette carefully ventured in and took a seat across from Tina and waited for her to address whatever mood she was in. From time to time Bette now knew that Tina was a very internal person, she moved through life at her own pace. So Bette felt that these moments of contemplation were few but important none the less. Bette wanted to wait, but the need to know why Tina was so quiet unnerved her.  “Is everything ok?” she thought maybe with a general question she could coax Tina into a conversation.

     

    “Everything’s fine.” she answered and went right back to staring out her living room window. After a while she spoke again, “I sat down to read my mail and I almost had a feeling that I should I wait for Rick to get in. But then I touched here” she ran her hand over the top of her belly. “And then I remembered. And the strangest feeling came over me, I felt anxious.” she smiled at Bette with eyes glassy with tears.

     

    “Anxious?”

     

    “Yea, I couldn’t help but wonder what they’ll look like. Whether or not they’ll look like me or Rick or maybe even our parents. I remember my dad as a kid had these sort of elf like ears.” Tina smiled as she thought about the picture she’d seen of her father as a boy.  “Rick always had this horribly crooked smile when he was lying, he could not play Poker to save his life, and I just began to picture his face when we were younger with the same smile.” Tina finally looked over at Bette and noticed the small nod she’d given at her explanation of her thoughts.  “I know for a fact that if I wasn’t sitting already I would be cleaning this  house from top to bottom again.” Bette looked around her and sure enough her senses finally caught the scent of cleaning products, the same scent of the environmentally safe ones she’d recommended to Tina months ago. “I had to stay here and just let it settle.”

    1. “Yea, Bette says it’s good for me and the baby. She says there’s no reason I can’t stay fit during my pregnancy.” – nice to have Dr. Porter on call… hope the next appt. is soon ;-)

    2. I’ve been looking for an update to this story, then you provide two! Alice and Tasha’s suspicions and worries are coming from a place of love, but I haven’t seen any cause for concern. Bette’s friendship seems to be having a positive influence on Tina, and that can’t be a bad thing. Thanks for the double posts. :)

    3. So happy to see you back posting. Congrats on the new job! Two fantastic chapters. I love the friendship you’ve developed with Bette and Tina. For different reasons, it’s exactly what they both need. Can’t wait for your next chapter.

    4. Hey thanks for posting! Great update! I love this story, and these chapters were so tender and sweet! :-) I love the way you developing the story on the characters and their interactions. Well, overall.. I am looking forward to your next post!! :-D thanks & PPS!Ps: Congrats on the new job :-)

    5. Thanks so much for these updates. I was really missing this story. It’s so good to see Tina returning to life…smiling and laughing. I hope Alice and Tasha don’t discourage her from having this friendship with Bette.

    6. Thanks for the updates. Love this story. Alice and Tasha should be happy that Tina has another focus and isn’t quite as depressed as she was before meeting Bette. Bette’s friendship has had a very positive affect on Tina and that is just great. They get along well and the friendship is developing beyond that of doctor and patient. Excellent idea. Thanks for posting.
