“It’s alright, son, it’s alright.” I wrapped my arms around his small yet strong torso, feeling the sting in my nose. But his gesture made me smile. It was a real connection, we both felt it. And I looked over to her, she shun from my eyes, and tried to hide her tears.
He sat back to his seat, rubbed his eyes and asked me more about his father.
I told the shenanigans we used to pull together, the jokes we shared, the memory of me visiting him in Connecticut, and of course, the incident that left me a two inch scar and a whole summer wearing a baseball cap.
He listened, very intrigued. Tina, too, was captivated by the stories that I had told her before. I sometimes glanced at her, and stumbled into those incredibly watery hazel eyes. My thoughts would get lost, just momentarily, and then I had to shake off the strangely familiar feelings and resume my tale telling.
Our conversation continued on about two hours straight, and I got extremely dehydrated. So I drank some of the liquid we ordered. The alcoholic drink soon sent some relaxing bubbles into my system. He asked for a sip from my glass. Though Tina gave me her warning glare, I still found it amusing, so I let him have a little sip. His face contorted when the bitterness touched his tasting buds. I had a laugh at his complaining and asked if they were ready for dinner.
Michelangelo helped us with the menu again. He ordered us a “paquete de familia”. I liked how it spelled on the menu.
Not long the family-sized meal package arrived. It was still a huge meal.
He cut his pork with some difficulty. Tina and I both reached to help him with the knife. So very naturally and unavoidably, our hands touched for a millisecond. Hers were icy, which had never changed through the years. She quickly took her hands back and let me help him. I pretended it did not affect me whatsoever, but my heartbeat still doubled up, bouncing in my ears. I didn’t understand, I didn’t want to understand.
The boy nibbled on his fries while I cut his food into small bites. He received his pork with gratitude and stole some fish from my plate, and giggled with his achievement.

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.
