Chapter Seventeen
part one
The night was abnormally quiet, no insects, no birds, no traffic. Angelo was so perked up from the dinner with Bette. He ran around the room barefoot and took quite a long time before settling down for some spelling review. My dad was trying to get his attention for a few minutes.
I leaned against the window, and tried to make out the outline of the brunette down stairs in the shadow. She stayed there for a while, a tiny little bouncing fire flickered between her fingers. Then I heard her start the car, and quickly disappeared into the silent night.
Her condition worried me. The way her hand trembled and her body shuddered, it was not purely nicotine addiction, I feared. She was also making an effort to hide it, as if she herself was scared.
Not far away, my son was again describing his fantastic afternoon spent with his mama B to Sam. It was not going to be easy, having her in my life again, yet only a little bit of her.
And then I grinned a silly smile to myself. Today I touched her. Twice. She still felt incredibly warm, unusually warm, but just the way I remembered, just the way I loved. Although she shun from me plenty of times, physically avoided me, and mentally blocked me, but she was at least civil, and showed great affection to Angelo.
Most of my day at work left my memory. My mind only allowed me certain space for today, and that certain space was full of images of her. The last conversation on the drive home made me especially chipper, though awkward, but it gave me hope.
Half an hour ago…
At a red light, I for the millionth time looked at her through the rear mirror. She was asking Angelo about his wishes in terms of traveling.
“I think Spain is a great country.” He commented.
“Yes, it is a very lovely country actually.” She had a soft smile on her face, relaxed a little more into the seat. Her posture was so beautiful that it burned my eyes. I wished someday, she’d give me that kind of smile again, so I could know that the loving person in her was back. “How about we go to Europe together sometimes? I got a place in France, we can take the red train all the way across the country to Barcelona, Salamanca…” She started to picture the transcontinental railroad trip.

Alright, folks, you see the tension, and Tina’s still at Bette’s place. You can guess where I’m heading to from now on.
Wait till you see the next chapter!
And I’ve always promised to fix things.
Thank you for reading, and please I welcome your comments.
Peace
Have a nice trip and thank you for the update.
Thank you, I was indeed very lucky with my visa application.
RT,
God bless you on your visa application.
I’m glad to read your new chapter. I understand Bette’s feelings but Tina truly loved her and still loves her. So I hope that B will be able to accept Tina again.
Did Tina committed suicide? I hope that B will discover this so that she will know that Tina suffered too.
Will be waiting for your next chap :)

Thank you very much. The application went well. I’m waiting for the result and I’m certain that it was successful.
Your guess is very accurate. But it has not been divulged in the story yet. I’m going to discuss on it in later chapters and you’ll find out how I manage it.
Hope you like the next chapter. :)
Oh boy, there is for sure a lot of tension and anger.
The road for happiness will be long and with a few bumps.
Sounds like Bette is jeaulous, thats good, she can’t have expected that Tina remained single.
Good luck with getting your visa.
Yes, anger and tension. It’s gonna be pretty disastrous when it gets released all at once.
The road is not easy, otherwise, happiness is just cheap. I intend to let them have a few bumps down the road. And when they finally realize how much they love each other after all, it’s all gonna be worthy.
Thank you. You are very kind. I was lucky with my visa application.
Please continue to read my stories, and review.
Bette and Tina need to talk and work thing out, sad to see them like this
It’s sad. And unfortunately, I probably made it sadder in the next chapter.
But they’ll work it out. Have some faith! :)
I didn’t read your story in a while, but I’m glad to finally find the time to do it because I like it a lot ! My god … Bette can be such a b….
Anyway, post soon ;-)
Bette can be a little bit clueless. I know, because that’s who she is.
But she also has suffered much. It’s been eating her. Her life is a mess.
Thank you for catching up with my story and reviewing. I hope you’ll like the next chapter.
Im completely on Bette side in this. ..and just out of curiosity is this Yolanda the same as the one in therapy session on the show, Candice ex?
It is Yolanda Watkins. But I’m not including Candice in this chapter.
Don’t worry about her. She’s a teeny tiny little character in the story, and she’s not even going to have a line. :P
Bette seems like the loneliest person in the world, looks like walking dead from your description AND has some illness hanging over her, lol. Tina, on the other hand, has it quite good – she has her friends, Bette’s friends, Bette’s family, her douchebag father is still in her life, she has a kid AND, as we found out from the last page, she even had a girlfriend all this time (lol, not that heartbroken after all). She really messed up Bette’s life big time.
Hmmm, I see your point. But Tina’s story and suffering have not been exposed entirely, and I believe that it’s not as good as you think right now.
Both of the parts suffered. And they will have to work extra hard to mend their broken hearts, and find a new way to get along.
I will continue with exploring the truth, and fixing things up for them.
Thank you for commenting and please read more.
I hope Bette and Tina can have another honest conversation. No one can blame Bette for her anger, but she still doesn’t know exaclty what happened and how Tina never really betrayed her. After all, she never did anything to harm her or acted with ill intentions once she got to know her. Amazing story, I’ll be looking forward to the next post!
Thank you very much for the support.
Bette, poor Bette, she just couldn’t move on. She is stubborn, and that stubbornness is causing her trouble, her suffering. It’s a mistake on her part. And she is going to make more mistakes.
But eventually, eventually, Bette could always get around. Just hope that when she does, it wouldn’t be too late for them to start anew.
I wish you can continue to enjoy my story. :)
