Round n Round We Go (Ch.15)
“Mama B?” Angelo gingerly spoke up to the shadow.
“Hello Michelangelo.” The shadow stood up and ventured into the light. Those cold brown orbs fixed on my son for a second, then shifted up, the black pupils shrunk, and they caught me. “Hello, Tina.”
I couldn’t process this sudden encounter. When James said her flight was four in the afternoon… he must have meant four in the afternoon in Beijing! And of course, there was this time zone difference. I just assumed that she wouldn’t be here for at least another 12 hours, but here she was! Her eyes, cold as ice and cruel as knife, they penetrated me, pinned me at the chest. So I diverted my line of sight to the only person that seemed unaffected by this heaviness.
Angelo was completely amazed. Finally, his legendary mama B in person. He studied the tall woman, from her dark hair to her big eyes, and seemed to have decided that she was even prettier than what I had told him.
While I looked at him, he looked at her, and I sensed the burning line of sight on me. I nervously played with the wide belt of my watch. We just stayed that way for god knows how long, and then my son approached her.
“Mama B, you’re more beautiful than mommy said.” He had to tilt his head in order to see her face. Although Bette’s attention wasn’t on him, it didn’t prevent him from speaking out the sweetest compliment with his innocent voice. And his word made me widen my eyes, and looked over to her in panic.
Bette momentarily turned her eyes away. She lowered her head but didn’t bend down or get down on her knees to be on an equal height with the boy. “Thank you. Now, Michelangelo, go play and leave us, would you?” She said, her voice insincere and lacked emotion.
This certainly was not how my son had pictured the first… well the first meeting he could remember with his other mother. He was scared, and obeyed her almost immediately.
But I wasn’t going to approve that. How she just treated her step son was wrong and censurable. I caught Angelo by his shoulder as he backed into me. “For Angelo’s sake, for Angelo’s sake…” I chanted in my head and prepared to confront Bette. “Please don’t talk to him like that. And he would like to go by Angelo.” I looked at her emotionless eyes.

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!

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!
