Chapter 13
Several hours later Tina woke. She looked around the room and realized where she was and then remembered her conversation with Bette and let out a big sigh.
“Hey, you’re up. I hope you’re hungry I bought a ton of Chinese home.”
Tina looked over and saw Alice buzzing around the room and tried to wake herself enough to respond.
“Oh, um yeah Al that sounds good I’ll be out in a minute.”
At the sound of her friend’s voice Alice stopped what she was doing, looked at Tina and tenderly asked.
“Tina, are you alright?”
Tina gave her friend a weak smile.
“Yeah I’m fine Alice…um, I’ll tell you about it over dinner. Okay?”
“Okay, I’ll go get some plates…and stuff…okay?”
“Thanks.”
A few minutes later Tina joined Alice at the kitchen table.
“God Al, this looks amazing. I didn’t realize how hungry I was.”
The ladies filled their plates and dug in. They ate in silence until Alice broke the silence.
“So, are you feeling better?”
“Yeah, I um, I was just a bit emotional earlier and when you came in I had just woken up, and well it all came rushing back. I was just a little overwhelmed.”
“Oh, so you’re okay now?”
Tina paused and thought for a moment.
“Yeah, I think I am…Al, I called her…”
“Was it bad?”
“No, not at all…it’s just…we talked…you know, really talked, and there is just so much to take in…Things are so much different than I thought they’d be…I’ve spent 2 years trying in vain to move on, and she’s been…I don’t know…waiting for me to come home…”
“Tina, I never thought about it that way, but you’re right…She has been waiting for you…”
“You know Al, for 2 years I haven’t even thought there was a remote chance that we might reconcile.”
“Tina, you didn’t think about her?”
Tina looked at her friend like she was from another planet.
“Al, that’s not what I said. I’ve thought about her way too much…there have been way too many times that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about her…about us…our life…the whys… the what ifs, …but mostly, about her…but Al, I thought …that she was with her…that she…that she didn’t want me…”

Wow there is a lot of work to do. Okay, time to roll up our sleeves and get to work. Thanks for the awesome post DnA.
There is hope when Tina is able to move forward with her life. I don’t think Bette will dislike Tina for her actions. In fact Bette may blame herself for what Tina has been through.
Ibelieve Bette will take the blane for Tinas action. Yet both is guilty,Tina for shuting Bette out and Bette for steping our of her marriage. Both have taken a beating for two yrs. Get to the future. thanks
thats it they have to at least try… alice was good … pps
Alice is being such a good friend to Tina. She’s going to need her support. It won’t be easy opening up to Bette and telling her all the things she got herself into while she was away.
Please just post again soon.
OK for god’s sake just go see bette. You are thinking with this too much……way too much just do it
Bette will put all of the blame on herself. PPs
As is the way they have always done, both of them are over-thinking this situation. “Our girls” are hurting deeply and they just need to get together and just talk, forgive each other and MOVE ON, whether that be together or not. Of course, we all want them together always but, they won’t know until they talk. Bette will want to take all the blame and that shouldn’t happen. They both are guilty and no one forced them to do the things they did. It’s in the past and that is where it should stay. They should love each other and move forward together. They should also remember what happens when there is no communication and not ever repeat the past. Wonderful chapter. Thanks.
Alice comments hit the nail
