I swallowed and begged her inwardly to leave me alone. “I’m fine.”
She felt it too, that she was making me uncomfortable. Quickly, as if I caught fire, she jumped away. “I think you shouldn’t be driving…”
“No, I’m fine, absolutely.”
“Bette…” She looked at me with those eyes again, and laid her palm up. “Give me the key.”
Michelangelo was watching this interaction. I gave up, and dropped the car key in her hand.
“You are not feeling well, mama B?”
“No, it’s normal. You know sometimes your balance got disturbed by a very long flight. I’m just trying to get back my balance that’s all.” I assured him and smiled an insincere smile.
I sat in the back of my Lincoln and my son climbed into the back as well. I noticed the pack he was carrying. “Michelangelo, make sure you heat that before you eat, okay?”
“Oh I know, it’s the bacteria.” He acknowledged my advise.
“Exactly.”
“Don’t worry, mom, we’re not gonna eat it. It’s for nana Sue’s cats.” The boy shook the box a little and secured its wrap again.
I was a bit surprised. “Nana Sue? Sue Heminger?”
“Right, Mrs. Heminger.” Michelangelo nodded affirmatively. “She has a lot of cats. They’re so cute. I love kittens.”
“Hmmm, I hadn’t seen her for years. How is she now?”
Clearly, he liked the lovely old lady a lot.“She’s wonderful! Mommy just visited her last Friday, right mommy?”
I subconsciously looked up into the rear mirror.
The hazel eyes was following me. “That’s right, Angelo, nana Sue is doing great.” She paused a second and said to me. “She moved into an apartment in Venice, Bette. She’d love a visit.”
I contemplated her words and slowly nodded. Fine, this was an opportunity for me to get in touch with some old acquaintances.
During the rest of the drive, we talked more, and fell into silence more. But at least it was not entirely unpleasant.
As we arrived at their apartment, I was feeling much better, the nausea was gone and the shaking was barely visible. Michelangelo hugged me goodbye and went upstairs. He had spelling test tomorrow and he wanted to review some of the new words. I told him that I was proud of him and watched him climb up the front stairs of the building.

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.
