Round n Round We Go (Ch.20)
“Well, this is awkward.” Kate began to feel uncomfortable under the judgmental stares the brunette had been shooting her. “I’m just gonna… wander… over there.” She shoveled her hands in the sagged pockets and backed away slowly.
Tina felt the sense of helplessness gradually soaking in her body. Her stomach was not strong enough to endure the upset caused by all of this. The funeral, the wake that was about to begin, sleep deprivation, and this unplanned encounter, all of it was taking its toll on her. Her blood pressure was dropping drastically and her head felt heavy, then light, then heavy again.
Bette was soon to notice the blonde woman had turned pale. She quickly shoved her way through the line around the cafeteria and retrieved some mayo sandwich and sugar cubes in a plate. Then she had to shove her way through another bunch of people around the hostess. “Here, eat this.”
“I…” Tina was in the middle of a conversation, which was cut off a bit rudely by the brunette. She pushed a hand on the plate. “Bette, this is not the time…”
“Eat it.” Being bossy came natural for her. Bette stared down whomever the blonde was talking to and demanded her to eat the thing. The paleness, the cold sweat, the dizziness, were all indications of low blood sugar level. Then she counted the hours that they had been working after the simple omelet for breakfast, and she was sure that Tina was undergoing a serious blood sugar crisis. She was keeping an eye on her but she should have seen this coming, the brunette frowned to herself. “And the cube. Your blood sugar is down in the toilet, I suppose. Gosh I never thought I’d learn so much with a doctor hovering over me for two years…” She murmured to herself and suddenly felt a bit glad that she got to know Mindy.
“And yours is fine?” Tina rolled her eyes at the incredibly patronizing gesture Bette was giving her. But somehow it made her giddy. Then she beat herself up. Everything about Bette, the mild tease, the concerned gesture, and the bossing around, made her giddy.
“Mine is fine.” It had been some hours since she had eaten a proper meal, Bette calculated again. However, she was completely okay because over the years, she had developed certain level of eating disorder, and skipping meals had been a part of her work life. She put a sugar cube in her mouth nevertheless. “I run on low.” With a spontaneous wink, she went away to toss the empty plate.

To my readers who appreciate my work and are patient to wait for my posts, thank you very much.
You see now, it’s all going to turn well. And I know there are still issues unresolved, like Bette’s illness, I will get to that very quickly.
I know, I’ve been dawdling for a while. But it’s the World Cup! And I have not missed a single game, and that’s a new record. The fever is running pretty high in my country. Hope you can all enjoy the games.
I have so enjoyed this story! This chapter was filled with many issues. I love that everything finally dawned on Bette. Please let them heal and grow old together. Thank you for your gift of writing!
The issues are resolving gradually but surely. I assure you that they will have a nice ending.
Thank you so much for the supportive comment. I truly appreciate it.
My God! it was breathtaking.
Worth waiting all these days by this chapter, was iincrivel!
My Congratulations, I love this story.
Note: Actually here in Brazil we are living and breathes football, and you
can imagine how the party in this country.
The Brazil literally stops when our national team plays.
I hope that your selection proceed to the next phase.
(Excuse my English, it is not my official language.
I’m from Brazil)
God I love soccer so much! And Brazil has done really well with this year’s World Cup. I almost shed tears when Neymar injured his back and was sent to the hospital. Such a shame.
I hope you can enjoy more.
And probably one day I’ll pay a visit to Brazil. It just seems dreamy, the beaches, the sea, the stunning girls in bikinis ;p
RT,
Football is not really big here in our country so I can’t really relate with you guys but I hope that you and mscully are really enjoying the world cup fever :)
As for the update, I am happy about Bette’s realization. Hopefully they will be able to resolve their issues. Clearly Kate can’t match BP so it was good that she decided to leave TK.
Thanks again for the update.
Love love love!
I’m really enjoying it, and it’s seriously gotten in the way of my sleep.
I’m real jealous of the residents in the western hemisphere now :P
Yeah, I never thought somebody would be as good as Bette for Tina, and frankly I didn’t like Kate Arden, even in the show. She’s cool tho, as long as she keeps to a distance.
You’ve been real supportive.
Thanks thanks thanks!
I know, not often I write a comment, but I read each chapter.
I’m really glad that the story is out in the direction of Bette and Tina :)
They need to discuss and solve a lot of things, but I trust in the power of love!
Bette finally realized what happened with Tina, and she made the right decision that what is really important in her life.
I look forward to the sequel!
You really get me! Yes, she finally came to the realization of what is important in her life, not money, not work, definitely not her father…
And now in the next chapter, they’re facing a crisis. So keep your belief in the power of love.
Thank you for the comment. It means a lot.
Thx love your story. We will wait for your next post. But please don’t take to long.
Did I take too long? Sorry if I did.
It’s been a great journey and you’ve been very nice.
Thank you for the comment.
Oh gimmie a break, these two are a emotional ride….but I cant get enough!
Hahaha, sounds like you’re enjoying the ride! Anyway, if you can’t get enough, then I have a goal to give more, don’t I.
