Tina and Bette spent the last two hours inside a silent filled car on their way up to Big Bear for the weekend. Every once and a while Bette would glance over at Tina thinking how she hope this trip would be just the thing to bring Tina out of her funk. Not that she was being inconsiderate, obviously she knew having a miscarriage is something she could never really understand and she wanted to be supported, but also she wanted Tina to open up and tell her how she was feeling. Communication has been lacking in their relationship and Bette was afraid that if this downward spiral continued, it could cause major problems so hopefully this is just what they needed. They were now parked in the driveway outside the cabin sitting in the car staring at the cabin.

Bette: Tina if you don’t want to go in, we can go back home.

Tina: yeah right Bette, like you would drive all the way back for another two hours.

Tina smiled.

Bette: No I wouldn’t want too but I will if you don’t want to stay.

Tina: No I don’t want to go back home, it’s fine. Let’s go inside.

Bette got out of the car and walked over to the passenger side to open the door for Tina. She grabbed a hold of Tina’s hand and together they walked to the front door. Bette lifted under the door mat to retrieve the key to unlocked the door but it was already unlocked. When they opened the door, darkness filled the room so Bette looked around for a light switch which she found right next to the front door and when she flipped it on, both women gasped.

A few minutes before Bette and Tina walked through the door…

The little girl was sitting at the table eating a sloppy sandwich that she had made for herself until she heard a car pulling up outside. She immediately thought maybe it was someone from her family coming to rescue her, so she jumped out her chair and ran to the living room window to take a peak. All of her hopes went out the window when she saw two unfamiliar women sitting inside the car. The child stared at the women until she saw the doors to the car begin to open. She quickly ran back to the table and grabbed her sandwich, then climbed onto the chair that she has placed next to the switch in the kitchen and flipped it off. After the lights went off she ran into a room nearby and hid inside a closet.
