Round n Round We Go (Ch.16)
Then I thought about Marcus, he was a great son, a wonderful man, and I was sure he’d make a terrific dad. I regretted, every single day, to have abandoned our friendship. If I could just spend a few minutes on the phone, if I paid him a final visit, I’d feel better, so much better than I did. I wouldn’t care if he stayed in touch with Tina.
And there was Tina again. Tina, Tina, Tina! Everybody was just fucking connected to her. Everything I thought led me to her. I fumed and threw the cigarette in my hand to the ground.
“Fuck…” I let out a heavy sigh. That was inevitable. She was Marcus’s friend, Michelangelo’s step mother. If I ever wanted to be in the boy’s life, and mend the wrong I had done to my friendship with Marcus through caring for his son, I had to make peace with her. “Ok, I can do this. Just don’t get worked up. I am doing this for Marcus, and Michelangelo.” I reminded myself.
Ah that sweet boy. I guessed that my focus should be on my step son during the time I visited LA. Tomorrow, no, it was today already, it was Monday already, and at three thirty, I could go pick him up from school, have dinner with him, and set things right. I was looking forward to meeting him, and…well, she’d be there, too.
Suddenly feeling a wave of tiredness in my body, I lifted my right arm and read the time on my newest digital Rolex Cellini Cestello white gold watch, 4:17 in the morning. I still had two hours or so before my morning started.
Back in my room, I squinted at the paper bag resting on the night stand. The next day after I visited the gallery, it came to me. I knew what was in it, my divorce paper. But I never opened it, or took it to my lawyer. It just lay on the surface, mocking my hesitance, my cowardice. What was I doing, I didn’t know. It was just… a lot to take because once our names were both signed on the paper, once it got filed, whatever we had, all of that was over. That simple. It shouldn’t be that simple.

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.
