Put it up to your ear…what do you hear?
“Hey Baby Sis,” Kit whispered, as she sat down on the side of the bed, and reached out to stroke her younger sister’s back. “I’m sorry about Daddy yelling at you.” Kit shook her head thinking, ‘Who would have thought that the man who never even touches anything remotely sentimental, would not only pick up her little sister’s teddy bear, but that he would sit on the floor and play with both the stuffed animal and his youngest daughter?’ She continued to rub the back of the nine year old little girl, getting no response, other than the quiet tears that were interrupted every once in a while by a small hiccup. She felt horrible about what their father had done. “Please don’t cry…you know I can’t take it when you cry.”
Laying on her side, facing away from her older sister, whom she absolutely adored, Bette finally turned enough so she could see Kit’s face. In a very soft, little voice, she whispered in between sniffles, “Why didn’t… you tell Daddy I didn’t… put that in there…that I would never hurt Teddy… by cutting him open like… that? I had him my whole…life.”
Kit realized at that moment that she had done much more damage than just her little sister getting yelled at. By trying to hide her pot in the teddy bear that was her sister’s favorite stuffed animal, she had opened the door for their very strict and old fashioned father to destroy the small bear her sister cherished, when he discovered Kit’s secret hiding place, and tore the animal to shreds.
“I’m sorry. I wanted to tell him it was my fault. He knew it was my stuff, not yours…I just wasn’t brave enough. I’m sorry, baby…please forgive me…please.”
Bette sniffed back her remaining tears, and gave her sister a small smile. “It’s okay,” she whispered, clutching her hands together. “I know you tried your best.”
Kit let out the breath she had been holding, and reached out to brush aside the bangs that had fallen into Bette’s eyes. She looked down at her sister’s tightly clasped hands. “Whatcha holding on to?”
Bette’s eyes slightly widened with a twinge of fear, not wanting anyone, even her beloved Kit to know about what she was holding onto for dear life. She couldn’t take having her precious secret taken from her, especially after losing her teddy bear to her father’s temper. “Nothing,” she whispered.

Welcome back…..hope that this story will continue soon, awesome angle looking forward to more :)
*happy dance*– luck?fate?kismet? – I don’t know — but a new story by Sea is enough to set the positive energy flowing — thanks
Whether it is an ongoing story or a stand alone chapter, I like them all.
Bottom line: you are truly a flexible writer ;-)
How incredibly delightful. Really…you should get these urges more often.
A PLASMA TV: $2000….A TRIP TO HAWAII: $3500…..THIS STORY: PRICELESS….
I don’t believe there’s such a thing as FATE, but I’ll gladly indulged myself with that idea, through your story.
BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN, BEAUTIFUL BEGINNING.
fate(fayt) a power thought to control all events and impossible to resist.
destiny (des-ti-nee) tha which happens to a person or thing, thought of as determined in advance by fate.
Those die hard romantics seem to always believe in fate and destiny. Bette and Tina.. destiny for certain.
Awesome story ;)
so glad to see your story today. Like this opening – how will their paths continue to cross. Also love to see Tina had a family – more please

I am amazed how you have picked up this unwritten times in these characters lives.
This start is fabulous; sentimental without being sickly sweet; honest without being brutal; gentle without being clawing and breathtaking without being shocking.
Your characterisations are perfect. I can picture the scenes between Kit and Bette and then Bette and her father.
And yes, I am totally hooked by it.
Awaiting your next chapter with much anticipation.
A loyal fan.

Hey Seahurst that was so Awesome great Amazing Story I can wait to read more I’m really hooked too thank you Please post soon.
That was so adorable, sweet and beautiful…
Thank you.
I enjoyed your last series, and though I never commented I was really impressed. So far, this story has taking on the perspective of what destiny and fate are all about. I have first hand knowledge of this. My fiance’s and my paths were crossing for many years and never knew it. We came very close once to meeting whilst at college but my dad got sick and I had to fly home that week. Why didn’t we meet after? He was visiting his brother, who was dating my best friend at the time. We had been to many places at the same time without ever meeting each other. We had both gone to Australia and Antigua on vacations with our families the same year and stayed at the same hotels. Weird? I know. I guess when something is meant to be, no matter how hard we fight against it, it will eventually happen. How’d we meet? Cliche – at the gym. We both tried to get on the last available treadmill together. Strange…of all the gyms in Ft. Lauderdale, he and I signed up at the same one. We’ve both taken with the ‘destiny’ of our union and honestly, there is some comefort in knowing that your paths have crossed so many times before. I felt like I knew him before I met him. I don’t know if that makes sense but that’s how I feel. Anyways, I have rambled…a trait I get from my sis. Well do post soon!
This is good story, I like it. Post soon, thanks!
I’m reading:
Do you like to dance?
Put it up to your ear … what you hear?
Both are wonderful!
Congratulations!
You are brilliant and this is about to be another spectacular story
