Love All (17-20)
It was standing room only for the tournament. Bette was playing the number two seed and it was going to be a battle. Al and Dana had called to wish Bette luck. Even Jody called albeit too late for Bette to get before having to get on the court.
Because of the interest that was growing around the battle between top three women’s seeds in the lead up to the US Open, the event was being televised over ESPN which the friends back home were watching.
Tina sat in the box with Katie and beside Rico, both anxious and watching the match carefully. Tina was looking for any signs of trouble from Bette’s leg but found that, although Bette was cautious of putting too much weight on it early, she didn’t seem to be in any pain.
As expected, the match was a serious of long, hard fought rallies. As the games progressed, Bette was steadily moving ahead at the same time that Tina was noticing that she was starting to show strains from her leg. Tina sent a silent prayer that Bette could persevere.
At the club back home in Florida, Dana, Al and Helena were watching the match. When Helena had gotten up to get them drinks, Al turned to Dana.
“Dane, watch Bette when she comes to a tough point.”
Sure enough, throughout the match, Bette would look up to Tina as if she needed assurance. It wasn’t something she had ever regularly done as the umpires were very weary of silent coaching.
As oblivious as Dana generally was, even she noticed this change in Bette’s behavior. “Hmmf. That’s new.” She commented.
Al began to divide her time watching the match and surreptitiously keeping an eye on Jody who was over with his boys club. It was apparent that he could see what was happening. Even more so when the announcer sought to provide color around who was in the box and some trivia around Tina. Al elbowed Dana and gestured for her to see the look of fury cross Jody’s face. Helena returned to find her companions chuckling. “What’s up?”
They opted for an abbreviated version. “Oh we were just laughing at Jody’s annoyance at having Tina mentioned on TV”

Kids are so smart. Its your Mom job. Isn’t it his job to be your husband. That will give Bette food for though. thanks
Love this story, and I know nothing about tennis. If Bette won’t listen to Katie, maybe Loco can bark some sense into her.
Have I told you how much I’m loving this story.
Katie’s got Jody pegged, and can see that Bette deserves better… hopefully Bette comes around to fully agree with this devastatingly simple logic. Great update, Robi. Thanks
Jody needs an ass kicking…Love this story.
I agree with AmandaMG. Jody is an asshole and needs to be taken to the curb with the rest of the trash. PS
Bette has some serious figuring out to do, afterall, it’s not just her and T here, there is also little Katie! Hopefully Bette will see that what she has with Jodi is nothing compared to what she could have with Tina.
Good chapter, poor Tina!
“Isn’t it his job to be your husband?” Is that not heartbreaking? :(
I’m with Lament, heart breaking. Thank you for this post! Felt so sorry for T with that ape Jody trying to make her jealous. Katie is lovely! I hope you post soon, thanks for this update. ADx
listen to the kid bette… jody is an asshole… and i can’t wait for bette to kick him to the curb…PPS
BTW… i hope they have a Pre-Nup. jody is going to love having to go to work for a living…
loving this story
This story has two great components 1) Tennis and the other a absolutly great story line… Katie is just great and so innocenty telling Bette what she knows already.Great writing and PPS
God, I hate Jody pawing all over Bette! Yuck!!! I hope he screws up soon so Bette can kick him out. Little Katie doesn’t miss much does she? PPS!!
Damn. I feel so bad for Tina. Not so much for Bette. She made her bed.. now she has to lie in it. Flirting with Tina all weekend..and then letting her husband pound her with Tina in the next room over. That shit is cruel. Maybe Bette will realize when Helena tries some moves on Tina that she won’t be waiting forever. PPS.
Can I please kill Jodi? He is getting on my nerves! Katie is right , bye bye to Jodi and Hello to Tina! :DGreat chapter and PPS
