Round n Round We Go (Ch.20)
People gradually filled in the hall, they shook hands with Steven and Tina at the entrance and took their seat. More people came than they anticipated. They all came to contribute their love and sorrow for a well loved old lady.
Steven began his speech as it seemed that everybody had arrived. He gave his wife a kiss and squeezed Tina’s hand before going up to the stage.
The blonde returned to her seat beside the boy. “How are you holding up, sweetie?” She whispered to her son and kissed him on the forehead.
Michelangelo immediately embraced her and assured her that he was fine.
Bette looked on to Steven and listened to his story growing up. She was proud of him, she thought, despite she barely knew the man. But the way he described his childhood, alcoholic parents, living in a trailer park, moving all the way to California with his grandmother, it was clear that everything was harsh. It was a miracle, that he survived all that kind of hardship and grew to be a good man, a good husband. Thank God, Bette pursed her lips in amazement, thank God that Sue was there for him. People tore up with the young man several times during his speech. But at the end of it, the crowd burst into cheers, and clapping, for the incredibly inspiration from his dictating.
Then it was Tina’s turn to share her eulogy. She smiled down to the crowd and fixed her eyes on the brunette sitting in the front row.
For a moment, she stood there, and recalled the funeral in Connecticut. On Marcus and Therese’s funeral, Bette sat in the front row, and she was in the way back, hiding. For hours, she just hid behind people and stared at the brunette. They did not exchange any words, Bette did not try to find her, and before she had the chance to go up to the Porters for the boy, the brunette left early. But now, now she had her undivided attention. Those dark brown eyes followed her every move and silently gave her the support she needed. They had come this far. It made her a little nervous, actually, but also relieved. To have that attention, those caring eyes on her, reminded her how much she missed her best friend. Bette had been her best friend. And she missed her best friend more than anything.

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.
