    Reflections

    "That’s right," Bette replied. "I forgot that you’re an architect. I’d love to hear your thoughts on potential renovations. It might be a while off yet, but any ideas you have to offer would be appreciated."
    "I’d be happy to sit with you and rough out some sketches," he said enthusiastically. "Although to be honest, what you have is so true to the original design, I wouldn’t want to alter it very much."
    "An addition?" Bette suggested.
    "We’ll come up with some ideas," Tom concluded, continuing to glance at his surroundings.
    They both left the room to find Tina and her mom sitting at the dining room table.
    "Tee, our reservation is for 7 o’clock. We should get going soon, just in case traffic gets heavy," Bette said as she caught sight of the time on the wall clock.
    She saw Tina cringe just slightly at her use of the simple term of endearment. She silently berated herself for slipping up, but thought her transgression relatively minor, and unlikely to cause any real difficulty.
    **********
    All four of them returned to the house, having thoroughly enjoyed the meal that was presented to them at one of Los Angeles’s finest restaurants. Grace Restaurant was on Beverly Boulevard, a reasonable distance from their house, and widely recognized for its quality food, excellent wine list and stellar service. Bette had made reservations as soon as they were informed of the dates Tina’s parents would be visiting. Their evening had not been a disappointment.
    "Let me just sit down," Tom said as he followed Tina into the living room. "I think I have to loosen my belt."
    "Dad," Tina said, her brow knit slightly.
    "I’m just loosening it, sweetie, I’m not going to make myself so comfortable that I make you uncomfortable," he replied, having accurately read her one word admonition.
    Tina accepted his explanation. Too many times as a teenager, she had occasion to be embarrassed by the actions or words of her father, and felt she would be better served by avoiding such situations, rather than reacting to them once they occurred.
    Tina sat in the armchair opposite her father, while he took a seat on the couch. Her mother soon followed and made herself comfortable beside her husband. Bette set four glasses on the coffee table before disappearing to retrieve a bottle of wine.

    1. Okay that a refreshing change. Not all coming out stories are rife with sturm und drang. To many parents credit, more of than not they already “know” before their kid tells them (mine sure did). BTW, loved your A-list of “you know you’re a lesbian when…” but you left out PE and the gym teacher Swimmie ;0) Any way, thanks for sharing this well written series! Looking forward to whatever else you have in store :0)

    2. What a wonderful turnabout coming out story! In all of fanficdom, I’ve never seen more savvy parents. They truly know and love their daughter for who she is. Tina was blessed with perfect parents!(and a very good author) Thank you!

    3. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all parents were so accepting of their children’s sexual orientation. Great story JKS! I’m looking forward, as always, to more of your talented tales. Thanks!
