Round n Round We Go (Ch.16)
Comparing to the silence and lack of interaction between us, the boy was restless. He enjoyed the sweet food, exchanged some small talks with the waiter and learned a few Spanish words. Then he suddenly remembered something, and searched in his bag.
I directed my attention to him.
“Mommy, look what I drew on art class today!” He pulled out a painting, presented it on the table for me and Tina to see.
It was a picture of two woman and a boy. As I stared at the chocolate colored boy and the brown haired woman, and then the golden haired woman, I realized it was about the scene we said goodbye on the third floor of my gallery. In his painting, we were smiling to one another, I, the chocolate colored lady shook his hand, and he looked at me with his big brown eyes, Tina, the vanilla colored lady, was standing behind him, smiling as well. I was in awe by the way he depicted that brief moment. It all just happened, like what, in twenty seconds, but he remembered the exact position we were at. And the lighting, a little reddish, a little dim from the casement window, was very well accentuated. I couldn’t possibly understand how he did that with color pencils and crayons.
“Mama B, you’re an artist, how do you like my painting?” He asked me, his eyes sparkling expectantly.
I was speechless by the talent he showed in this picture. I looked over to his other mother and saw her looking at me also with expectant. “I… this is amazing, Michelangelo. I don’t know what you did with the crayons but the light is perfect, you see, it’s very realistic, the strokes and the direction of which the sun rays travel, they are expertly captured. How did you do this?”
He clearly was happy with my response, and he showed me his hands. On his fingertips, there were the remaining pigment. “These won’t come off in a few days.” And he gave Tina an apologetic toothy smile.
“That’s very smart, kid. Very impressive.” I shook my head and smiled at him. “My, my, at this age you already can paint this well. I guarantee you, kid, you’re gonna make it to Whitney Biannual in like, ten years or so.”

I know what you’re thinking. It’s just complicated, sad, messy.
But it’s inevitable. For Bette, she sometimes can be very stubborn, so that she could protect herself but also be oblivious to other things.
Let’s just say that the emotions are waking up.
And you are probably worried for her well-being. She’s shown quite the dangerous syndromes. You’ll see what I have stored for the future.
I’ll try not to be away for too long.
Peace.
So sad how things have gotten for Bette. Glad that the three had a good evening together. I love this story! Thank you!
That was a good evening. I couldn’t help but grin every time I picture Bette with the kid. She can be a little childish sometimes too, but she has the potential as a great mother.
Thank you for reading. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Very sad, indeed! And something is telling me that Bette’s hand tremors and headaches are the signs that something is really, really wrong with her brain… I can’t even utter the ‘C’ Word, I hope I’m mistaken..
Nicely done, though! Can’t wait to read more.
Oh my god you’re commenting on my story! I loooove yours!
Ah, don’t worry, I don’t have the gut to give Bette such a sickness, She’s not well that’s true. But I’ll fix it too.
Thank you so much for the support! It’s a lot coming from a writer I admire.
I want Bette to release all her anger at Tina and go off, just get it out her system because honestly I feel like Bette, I honestly dont think its fair that everyone is all nice with Tina when clearly she destroyed her lover heart and betrayed they’re blood, all of plan to extort money or whatever and now she’s happy cool laiding with the family argh! why do Bette always get the pain in these stories argh!..oh I know because she care about Tina more than herself I need Alpha Bette with Tina and mama Bette with Michaelangelo…but then a happy ending when its all said and done haha..I cant wait for their conversation
Your wish is my command. :) Bette’s angry, she is, no matter how hard she tries to not show that in front of her son, she’s gonna lose it when she and Tina are alone.
She just needs a trigger…
You’ll see how she gets worked up, and release the emotion all together.
Thanks for commenting! I always love your comments.
Sad very sad. Thx for your post!
It is, sad indeed. Thank you for the comment. Please continue to read!
This is sad wish they can talk and work thing out. Glad they have a good time and hope to see more of it. Please post more, thanks
I think there’s a lot that had happened, and when neither one of them intended to talk about the past, more issues build up and when one of them lose their cool, it’s gonna be some avalanche.
Thanks for commenting!
You have me worried about Bette, looks like she is serious ill.
Loved the dinner with them.
I hope they will talk soon and get this mess out of the way and start the family they are to supposed to be.
Bette is not well, I could tell you. But not so badly ill.
Her health issue is what I’m going to write about later. Now they have a lot of issues to work out.
I like the idea of starting a family again. Yet, it’s not gonna be easy. I am working on it!
Thank you for reading. I hope you’ll enjoy more.
