"Christ Tina, can you just say something already? I’ve been talking for the last ten minutes and you haven’t said a fucking word. I said I was sorry"
"Because you’re always sorry Bette!"
Tina whipped around and looked into her wife’s eyes with tears falling from her own, her expression mixed with sadness and anger. She clenched her hand in frustration and took one deep breath after another as silence surrounded them for a second.
Bette threw her hands up in her own frustration, "What do you expect me to do, Tina? What do you want from me?"
It felt like such a loaded question yet incredibly simple at the same time. Tina placed a hand on her forehead and shook her head, "I don’t know, Bette. Time. An hour or two just to have dinner as a family and maybe watch a movie. Is that too much to ask?"
No, it wasn’t and it broke Bette’s heart that Tina was so desperate for quality time that she would even ask for such a small amount of it. At the same time, it frustrated her all the more. To Tina, it seemed like such an easy request to grant but unfortunately Bette couldn’t see past the complexity of the situation.
Nevertheless she knew that Tina wasn’t being unreasonable and that her wife deserved some type of compromise.
"Look, I’ll try to be here on time. I can’t promise anything because of everything that’s going on at the gallery but I’ll do my best"
As much as Tina wanted to believe that, she just couldn’t. It sounded all too familiar so even though her heart pleaded for her to accept Bette’s offer, she crossed her arms and shook her head.
"That’s not good enough"
The brunette couldn’t help but scoff at the audacity her wife had to turn her down like that. Bette was offering her time, wasn’t that what Tina wanted?
"Why not?"
"Because you always say that and nothing ever changes, Bette. I need something solid, a promise, something that I can actually hold on to"
Bette understood Tina’s point of view she really did but despite that, she found herself wishing that Tina would realize how important it was for her to be at the gallery. Bette knew how time consuming her job was and that she probably could assign someone to take care of things while she was away but being there to hang the show and make decisions is what Bette loved most about her job.

Thank goodness for second chances… I don’t think Bette will waste hers. This installment put me through the wringer, Liah, but I’m happy to see you back. Thank you! :)
Geez, louise you scared the pants off me. I thought our beautiful girl was gone. So happy she is alright. Is this a shot story, if so I sincerely wish there was more. It was a great story and I would like to see if Bette drops the ball or lives up to her promises. She so often makes big bold promises but when the crisis has passed, so do her promises go by the wayside. Great story. Thanks.
