Part 10 – Footprints
With her eye for beauty and artistic talent Bette had documented the first six months of Angie’s life with keepsakes. Decorating the pages with picture collages, hodgepodge pieces of memorabilia and written impressions, she’d intended for book to serve as a memento for Angie’s major milestones over the years. Regrettably she didn’t get past the first year and having spent the next three in jail she missed a life-time. Fortunately the book also held sentimental value for Tina so she’d kept it up for the past four. Bette hadn’t thought about the book in years but was happy to know that Tina still had it and that she had shared it with Angie.
Bette felt the emotional pull on her heartstrings. How different her family life would be now if she hadn’t had the affair. If Tina hadn’t hidden her pregnancy. If Tina hadn’t left her for a man. If Bette hadn’t attempted to kidnap Angelica. If Angie hadn’t gotten critically ill. So many IF’s. So many fuck ups but ultimately life went on. Bette was brought out of her reverie and focused her attention on the here and now. Her daughter was chattering about her new baby brother.
“Can I hold him?”
“Yes. You can hold him like we practiced with the baby doll but remember he’s not a toy. You need to be very very careful. Do you remember the rule?”
“I never pick him up without an adult.”
“That’s right. Auntie Shane or I or another adult will put him in your lap and you need to stay sitting down. You can’t walk around with him.”
“Can I feed him?”
“Yes. I’m going to breastfeed him but sometimes we will put milk or water in a bottle and you can feed him.”
Angie and Bette had had similar conversations in the last few weeks in preparation for the arrival of the baby. Bette wanted Angie to feel like the birth was an intimate family event that she could partake in. The baby would naturally be the center of attention but Bette made it a point to reassure Angie that she wouldn’t be left out.”
“You’re going to be the best big sister and little helper for momma. Nicolas is very lucky to have you. I’m lucky too. I love you so much Angie. You make my heart sing do you know that?”

Oh yes, that was a amazing chapter.
Angie truly loves her little brother, she is so cute! .
And you made my heart flutter with some hope for a Tibette reunion, with the last few lines.
Please make my Tibette heart happy.
Thanks for a beautiful story!
Still feels like Tina doesnt belong anymore, even in the “framily”. And she definitely doesnt belong with Bette.. That ship has sailed, and its not a bad thing.
Enjoyed the update, thanks
Cute do I see a Tibette reconcilation……
Thanks for a very nice Chapter.
Please can we have Tibette reconciled with this new edition to their family
Look forward to your next post.
Thanks! This was so beautiful and touching in the end! We all have forgiveness in our hearts. Tina will always belong in Bette’s life. We all deserve a second chance! Miracles do happen. PPS
Hi BAT! Thanks for the update. You know that I like B and T to be together but given the circumstances that had happened between the two of them… mmm.. i think I wouldn’t really expect more. Personally I couldn’t accept what Tina has done to Bette. Letting Bette to be imprisoned for how many years! WTF! I think Bette will always be an Ex-con and that doesn’t suit well for me.
You can always forgive but forget? i doubt it. The scar is too deep. But of course TiBette love has always been different most esp. in fan fics. Somehow it surpasses everything.
I’ll still hold on to your story coz I love it.
XOXO

Amazing chapter! Truly a family.
I hate to see them like this…the hurt the fights the cheating is all bad…but when they move on from each other that’s the worst pain to me..it feels like the greatest love is over…sigh… I hope for wonderful outcomes but I don’t think that’s gonna happen with them together
and ‘a big disappointment when the stories do not finiscono..siamo here to wait and I think we deserve respect because of your fans. excuse the outburst.
Bat, are there more chapters to this story, I can’t find them listed anywhere but when I go the”next post by author” I have found another but now I can not find it anymore. Please tell me there are more and where to find them. Thanks.
I enjoyed the story development on this particular story. I am a Tibette fan, but in this story, I don’t agree that they should be together. From Bette’s talk with Shane, she acknowledges the problems of the past and doesn’t blame Tina but takes responsibility for her part in the problems. Tina has yet to do that…until she does, any relationship with her would be unhealthy for Bette and undesirable. You mentioned possible post partum for Tina and it is obvious that she needs therapy to come to grip with her her part in their sad saga. Bette would do well to steer clear of her and not risk her health and sanity and that of her family with Toxic Tina. I do hope you will complete this story…without the sugar-coated ending.
