Tina: It sure does. You don’t pay her.
Bette: Okay I’m busted. It was Alice. She sure has rubbed off on me over the years. She along with all our close friends have helped balance me. Friends tell you the truth about yourself even when you don’t want to hear it. Thank God for friends. They kept your mother and me sane when we were apart from one another. Our common friends were one of the reasons we stayed connected.
Tina: It was kind of hard for me to stayed connected to our friends when I went back to men. I thought that they thought that I had betrayed them. I didn’t know where I fit in anymore. So I kind of stayed away. Besides that they knew how much Bette was hurting. They sided with her just like that sided with me when we had broken up before.
Bette: Yeah those times were tough. It’s hard to get through without your friends’ support sometimes. It think that I reacted the worst when we broke up. I started smoking again and drinking more than usual.
Angelica: You used to smoke? That’s kind of hard to believe. I can’t see you smoking Mom.
Bette: Well before your mother and I met, I smoked. But I started smoking then because I was stressed. And I drank trying not to feel. I was pretty pitiful at times. It was hard because I didn’t have my best friend to lean on. I had messed up so badly. It was such a sad time in my life. That I had a hard time forgiving myself.
Looking over and Tina with slight tears in her eyes.
Tina reaches out and touch the back of Bette’s hand and caresses it.
Tina: Honey, it’s okay we made it back to each other. We made it back better people.
Bette: It took long enough. It took a long time, Tina, to get our crap together. What was it almost four years?
Tina nods her head.
Angelica: Wow you two were apart that long?
Bette: Pretty close to it off and on.
Tina: I’ve known this beautiful woman right here for a little over twenty four years. And I love her more today than I did twenty four years ago.

This was a wonderful portrayal of a family. It is nice to see parents and children so open to each others feelings.
Great story. Thank you. Loved it.
K, what can I say? I was cleaning up some old messages the other day, and who’d believe only 7 months ago you were just beginning to write FF huh? You did an awesome job with this story, and I do hope to see something from you soon!

“I just think people should do what they say they are going to do or just shut up. They shouldn’t be surprised if someone calls they out on their mess.” NOw hhuummm where have I seen this before? I wonder. I guess it will come to me later. LOl Journey your so bad. Ok I see you stoped but I hope it’s because you have thought of another story and can’t wait to start it. HEHe no presure just thinking out loud. loved the story., and how they explained things to their daughter. thank you see you soon
Journey you did a wonderful job with the story. Really enjoyed it and hope you come back to us with another. Thanks for sharing it with us.
BnTinmyhead I just couldn’t think of more questions that Angelica could ask that really would be appropriate for her to ask. Even though I know a teenage is bound to ask anything. When my children were teenagers they were bound to ask me anything. I liked they we had open communication like that. But some times their questions I was still hesitant to answer. I think I lied only once. :) Yeah only once. I believe that open communication starts when they are very young. You can’t wait until they are teens and expect them to talk to you.When I think of another angle I do another fill in the gaps story. First I have to think of a good gap to fill in. :)
Thank You. I enjoyed the talk over dinner and the affection that they show to one another, not that they just love each other, but the fact that the like and respect each other.
