    Private Duty—Chapter 3

    ”Sometimes people get sad thinking about things and cry” Bette responded and looked at Alana who was looking at her intently.

    ”So you are sad?” Alana asked

    ”Yes. I am sad” Bette replied as Alana turned throwing her arms around Bette’s neck to give her a hug.

    Bette’s tension released feeling the comforting hug from the little girl in her arms and flashed back to the times in the cellar when Shane and Alice would hug her tightly around her neck because they were frightened or scared but not because of comfort. Never had anyone just hugged her because they knew she needed comforting.

    ”Ms Bette?. Why are you sad?” Alana asked into Bette’s neck

    ”Oh sweetie. It’s just that I knew your Aunt Tina when we were kids and we were talking about how we hadn’t seen each other in a long time” Bette replied causing Alana to back out of the hug and look skeptically at Bette.

    ”Well you should be happy and not sad” Alana responded causing Bette to realize that Alana wasn’t that easy to pacify.

    ”Yes I am happy to see your Aunt Tina but I’m also sad because we missed seeing each other” Bette answered

    Alana nodded her head satisfied with the answer.

    ”Oh. Ok then. Do you want to go see my hiding place?” Alana asked and hopped off of Bette’s lap

    ”Sure” Bette smiled as Alana grabbed her hand and pulled on it to get Bette to follow her

    ”Now do you want to tell me what is going on with you?” Tricia asked closing the door as Tina sat dejected on the foot of the bed..

    Holding her head in her hands Tina let out a sigh and looked up at Tricia patting the bed for Tricia to sit.

    ”Tina?” Tricia prompted concerned as she sat down next Tina and placed her hand on Tina’s back to give it a comforting rub.

    ”Jesus Tricia..Everything is so fucked up!” Tina frustratingly answered then went silent.

    ”Tina? What in the hell is going on?” Tricia asked getting up and kneeling directly in front of Tina grabbing her hands and squeezing them. ”Talk to me” Tricia asked softly.

    Letting out a breath and sigh Tina shook her head ”I’m in love with Bette” Tina admitted looking at Tricia for her reaction.

    1. No not Dan!!! Run Tina. Just kidding. Tricia is the voice of reason. She makes a lot of sense. Reconciling nine year old Tina with the present woman who has carried guilt for 20 years and loved ten year old Bette but never pursued a relationship with a woman does need some counseling to resolve. I will just settle for Matt? Really Tina? Bette on the other hand has had relationships. Failed relationships. Tina is stubborn and impulsive and Bette gets that already, Sounds like love to me. Love this Bette by the way. Give it time. Like this story.

    2. Thank god for Trisha! She was able to get through Tina and let her see reason!

      Time for Tina to grow up and deal with the guilt and my advice is to solve other character flaws too. Impulsive, selfish, stubborn and jump to conclusions is not endearing and Bette figured her out in less then 2 days.

      Really, Dan!!!! Never liked him, maybe Tina should run or he can recomment another therapist.

      Alana, what a cute girl!

      Great story!

    3. I recall this story from a time ago. It is good to refresh and remember this tale. Thank you for bringing it back. this is another amazing gentle read that has an amazing journey to tell.
      All will end well for these two destined souls. Thank you for taking the time to share. This story is a wondeful read.

    4. Okay, give Dan a chance….. I always found Dan to be a rather neutral kind of guy. I neither liked nor disliked him, he was just there. Since he was not very important to the story…. I didn’t concern myself with him.

      Well, Tina went to the right person for advice – Trisha. She at least listened and the light turned on. Alana is a lot like her mom…. give comfort and advice when its needed. She’s a smart four year old.

      Let’s see how this talk goes in the guest house. Maybe Tricia made some impression, but old habits die hard. Tina best start thinking before she acts… This bit of drama was absolutely not called for. Bette certainly is a forgiving soul.. at least Tricia is in her corner. Hope Dan can do her some good….

      Loving this story….. thanks for this chapter…. love to see more.

    5. Good thing that Tricia was able to talk sense into Tina. Bette and Tina should try to get to know each other like they’d met just now. I’m curious to see whether Theresa will react to the T + B situation once she hears about it. She reacted after Bette’s identity was revealed so I hope for a reaction and some improvement on her condition.

      Thanks for posting, I’m intrigued.

    6. Great start to a very different perspective!
      Tricia sounds like she’s going to be a great ally for them both?
      Are there not any other therapists in LA? ……… can’t stand Dan Foxworthy!!
      Can’t wait to read more !
