He hugged the bear to his chest and started telling him about his day.
“You haven’t told me his name, Michelangelo. What’s his name?”
“MJ.”
Wow, I didn’t know kids these days still got the fever for the king of pop. “You’re a fan of him? Which song do you like most?”
“Huh?” He looked at me, dumbfounded.
“Well, he’s a great dancer too, but you gotta love his songs.”
He seemed more confused.
“Michael Jackson, no?”
“Nope. I don’t know any Michael Jackson.” He shook his head and brushed the bear’s brown fur.
“Then what does MJ stand for?”
“Marcus Junior.” He answered.
The answer stunned me, and pained me. I brought one hand to caress the bear too. And the stingy tears welled in my eyes again. “You named your teddy bear after your old man.”
“Yep, mommy said he’s gonna protect me from monsters in the closet. Coz, that’s what daddy would do.”
“Right, protect you from monsters. He’s a big bear alright.” I tilted my head up to prevent the tears from falling, and was glad that the light was dim in the room.
He continued to play with the toy. “I got a girl bear too. Her name’s Lil Therese. She is MJ’s girlfriend.”
“Where is she, then?”
“Home. One of her ears fell off, mama T is treating her.”
I smiled at him and kissed him on the forehead, and climbed in from the other side of the bed.
Because of the exhaustion playing with him all day, I fell asleep very quickly. But in the middle of the night, I felt some tugging at my shirt. I let out a yelp in panic and shot my eyes open.
He was sitting next to me and looking at me with big worried eyes.
“Wha-what?” I asked, still a little shaken up, and struggled to sit up.
He immediately came to hug my neck. Then I felt my night gown was clinging on me, wet with cold sweat. “You were having a nightmare, mommy. Shhh, it’s okay… everything is fine.” He cooed into my ear and caressed my hair.
I couldn’t remember the nightmare, just being very agonized, and exhausted. I suspected that it was something about Marcus, or about Tina. They invaded my dreams constantly, and more often since I came to LA. I pulled him closer and smelled the minty soap on him. It relaxed me, but also made me think of her. “I’m sorry, kid. It’s… not usual.”

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. :)
