He agreed and went on to get Sam out of bed, singing the new song he learned all the way down there.
For the whole morning, Angelo seemed extra chipper, eating his cheerio very quickly and then lent me a hand in washing the dishes. We climbed in the car and drove off to school.
I had my whole attention on him the entire morning and was thankful because of him, I got to think about her less. When we waited at a red light, I felt him staring at me. His big brown eyes were sparkling, all curious and nervous. I assumed that it was because of his presentation in front of the whole class this afternoon.“Are you nervous, baby?”
“Just a little.”
“Well, good. A little nerve can actually help you concentrate. You’ll do great, Angelo.” I smiled at him and saw the sparkles of curiosity in his eyes. He had something else that he wanted to ask, I knew that look. “Go ahead, what do you want to know?”
“Tell me again what does mama B look like.” He demanded, with his big brown eyes twinkling in excitement and uncertainty.
It hit me hard, every time. I had only shown him the photo of an eight year-old Bette in my purse, the one that I had been carrying around since the week before I married her. After that horrible day, the day I lost her, lost the one person that loved me more than anybody else, I didn’t pack a picture. Over the years, there wasn’t one. Sometimes I had to judge her, for not being here with Angelo, but other times, I hated myself for that. It was not her fault. She was heartbroken, angry, and had every right to be.
So I sighed a little to myself. “You’ve met her, honey.”
“But I don’t remember. You’re the one said that little children have that… anim…amni…”
“Amnesia, don’t hurt yourself.” I shook my head at his persistent attempt at spelling the word.
“Yes, amnesia. I wasn’t even three yet. It’s not fair!” No, it wasn’t fair, indeed. It wasn’t fair for everybody else to pay for my mistake. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and puffed his cheeks.
I secretly wanted to cry when he did that. It just reminded me so much of her, when she was irritated, or pretended to be, the inner child so unheedingly showed her nature. I knew he didn’t carry a gene of Bette. Just at times…well, maybe I was being obsessive again. I diverted my damp eyes away and started the car under a green light. “Ok, she’s very tall and thin, she has big brown eyes, very long eye lashes, thin brows, thin lips, long dark hair, and skin color of yours.”

My dear readers!
I just did a major change in my story telling. I changed from third person perspective to first person POV!
How do you like it? I want to know if you prefer this writing technique to the old one. It’s okay if you’d like me to return to third person view point. I’ll just rewrite this chapter and the next one.
And I know there are questions unanswered, things unresolved. But things will gradually work out.
Thank you for reading and please, COMMENT on this one because I need your direction.
Peace
woo！now I see the big picture here! You’ve handled well with the child part, so can we see the duo have some passionate action next chapter? I am hanging and waiting, thanks for the adequate updating!
Passionate action, huh, well, maybe not the next chapter immediately but soon, I guarantee.
There’s just so many emotions and complicated issues between the two.
I hope you’ll enjoy this more. I’m actually improvising here.
And I am reading “down to earth ” by browneyedgirl28,and she hasn’t updated it for nearly two months ,soooo frustrating!
Oh, I think I’ve read her stories. But lately I don’t have much time reading fanfic. I don’t know why, just have been busy here and there.
I won’t disappear for two whole months, nevertheless! :)
You did a great Job writing in first person! For me, i like third person versions more, but you don’t have to re write for me. I love the story and will read it in the version you give it us.
Wow, Bette was so cold, but i hope Angelo will warm her heart.
They are still married? Hmm…
Can’t wait for their diner meeting on Monday.
Thank you very much for the encouragement!
Bette is a bit heartless as she comes back. But kids, they have the power to capture one’s heart in no time. She will come around and set things right between her and her son.
Yes, still married. They have so much history together and it’s kind of difficult for them to give that up.
I hope you’ll continue to enjoy!
Well Bette is a bitch, but I understand that, but pleas you have to sort that. Please please.
Haha she is kind of bitchy in this chapter.
I will absolutely make her come around to her senses.
Thanks for reading and commenting!
Nice….a little disappointed by the turn of events, but I’m sure there are happier days ahead!
Yes, that I can guarantee! Thank you for reading and commenting!
O.M.G!!!! i just love this story. please don’t let me wait to long for an update.
Won’t be long! I’m working on it!
Thanks for the support!

Thanks for commenting! Please continue to read and enjoy!
RT,
The Past was kind of Bad, the Present is Slightly Good but the Future of Bette, Tina and Angelo seems going to be Better :)
Thanks for posting.

The past has some good memories in it, the present is complicated, the future, I promise, will be sweeter.
Thanks for reading and commenting!
That was great and the kid are so smart and cute, like him. Wow they still married, what a surprise, hope they will talk more and get to know each other again. Please post more, thanks
Yes, the kid is great! I wish I could have one of those in the future haha.
They are still married, and a lot of unresolved issues in their relationship.
Things will get better!
Thanks for commenting.
Threw me for loop completely. I would love to really the aftermath from when Bette heard Tina and her father conversation I mean after all these chapters thats what we been waiting for and the story just turn….but Shit I like this too I dont know I want it to be the way you written at first but its your choice and you are a brilliant, exquisite writer, I trust you lol!
On the other hand wow Bette was a lil mean but can you blame her for the way she treated Tina, I still can’t believe how many chances Tina had to tell her and didn’t, and Marcus died awe how sad, I would love to see them have another baby but im thinking ahead, and can’t believe Tina still in touch with her dad but family is family.
I guess im going to just see where this goes and enjoy every moment of it.
I know, it’s kind of a surprise isn’t it?! I was going for that kind of effect, actually. Besides, I can’t really go on with the confrontation anymore. That was just plain painful.
Bette is really mean here. She has her reasons to be, and you’re right, Tina not telling her the truth on so many occasions is one of them.
Marcus, oh I am sorry about him, too. But… to serve the plot…
They still can have another baby. Just it’s really too long in the future for them to talk about having another kid. They got to get back together first!
But it will all happen eventually!
Thanks for commenting. And I wish you’ll enjoy it more!
I understand Bette.Thank you for the update,PPS
Yes, she has the reasons to be mad. But she’ll come to her senses.
Thank you for reading and commenting! I’m working on it.
I love the story and will read whatever version you choose to write.
Thank you! You are very kind.
Ok, I’ll continue in the first person for more chapters and maybe I’ll return to third person perspective in later chapters!
