As he was listing the triggers, Bette growled in impatience. “Ugh, can we go to the treatment already?”
So the doctor quickly flipped through his note to present options on the treatments. Radiation, chemo, surgery, all kinds.
But the more he explained, the paler Bette got. They were talking about getting into her skull and do stuff on her brain. Most people had to be scared by the mere thought and concern about the short comes. “What if… we just use some medication to shrink it or…” She suddenly asked, feeling like a coward, but couldn’t help the shudder.
Dr. Wilson was quick to catch the slightest quiver in her voice while Dr. Beache proceeded to throw medical terms of the consequences at the couple.
“Well I suppose at this point it’s still doable, but you’re also looking at the potential of canceration, and other developments…” Bitemporal hemianopsia, pupillary dilatation, abducens palsies, Cushing’s triad, Cheyne-Stokes respiration, hyperventilation… They just didn’t make more sense than strange combinations of letters.
“Dr. Beache,” The elder woman suddenly interrupted him, “will you excuse us for a second?” She had always had a soft spot for her patients, and especially this one, who she had a lot of history with. The young woman’s fear for the hospital, fear for the treatments and surgeries, the complications and risks, all reminded her of a little girl’s scared eyes. She practically escorted the man out and then returned to Bette’s bedside, and sat next to her. “Dear, I know you must be scared, what he just said, is scary.”
Bette gave her a forced smile and instinctively wanted to search for her mother. Tina was by her side, the lithe and pale complexion, the golden threads, the light hair around her arm and neck as the sun gently beat on her from behind. Just as she wanted to reach, the figure already caught her hand and gave it a tender squeeze. The touch felt different, than that from her mother. It was more steady, and more real in the flesh. Suddenly, she somehow couldn’t remember how it felt like to have a mother. The memories were so ancient that she only vaguely remembered the trembling, stiff and cold touch of the sick woman. Could it be time to let her go? She contemplated at the touch. Could she finally let her mother go?

I couldn’t imagine to have any more supporters than I do on this site. It’s just overwhelming, in a good way. You have all been so good and encouraging. And I’m no longer bothered by the rating, so I’m leaving it on. There’s just enjoyment to write and post.
shoutout to: mscully, BOP, wkm, Bibi28, SassyGran, mamadoc91, pinky3001, bettporterjb, tibettenation1, scribe, didi1956, lipitora, kingg, CobbSalad, ut, and majicspider60. Thank you very much! I always respond to comments right after I post a new chapter.
And for the World Cup fans, I can’t say I’m not shocked to see the game between Brazil and Germany. I even shed tears at the end of it. But don’t be discouraged, it’s just one game and it can neither deny the glory, or the future of this wonderful team. So, hopefully, it’ll still be a great game with Holland.
And as for the champion, I am a fan of the Argentina’s, and I find Messi very cute. :)
Peace
Yeah, a update, i’m so glad Bette will be allright and doesn’t have that terrible disease.
And i am very pleased that you are going to continue with writing more of this story, they need happy times.
As for the World Cup, i am from Holland and i hope they will win from Brazilië.
As for the final, i will go for Argentina.
Thanks for the update.
Awww, congratulations on the victory. And so sad that Argentina didn’t win the cup eventually. But it had been a great season!
More happy times for Bette and Tina! Please continue to read and comment! :)
Lovely and wonderful! Now on to some make up romance!
Meant to ask – any chance of continuing “The Lucky One”?
Thanks! More romance there will be then!
And to your question, yes. I’m still plotting! And it takes a lot of patience for my readers because I’m a slow writer. :p
Worth waiting for but had trouble with my Contact Lenses again – seem to keep making my eyes tearful! Couldn’t possibly be your story could it?
Can we now have Bette back healthy and romantic with her wonderful Tina – please?
I’m with mamadoc91, any chance of continuing ‘The Lucky One’?
Being English I’m not commenting of the World Cup!!
Hahahaha, it was a good sign that you keep tearing up. I admit I was counting on that.
And yes to continuing the Lucky One. I’d love to keep the story alive, but after we changed to this site, I thought a lot of readers had forgotten about that story.
Now that I know you haven’t. I’ll try to post more chapters on that one.
Thank you, and hope you’ll enjoy more.
So glad things worked out. Love the story, thanks
And I’m glad that you loved it. Thank you for commenting!
Thank you so much despite the busy schedule of world cup you managed to post before the final.
Indeed another amazing chapter, Bette finally declaring her love again to Tina…. looking forward for the renewal of their vows , honeymoon , another baby perhaps…
Good luck in FIFA .
Hmmm, good thoughts. I’m thinking wedding, honeymoon and another baby too!
Thank you for reading and commenting!
Excellent My heart is at peace knowing that
our dear bette does not have the illness of his mother.
I approve you make this long story, I hope it lasts
some 200 chapters, because their fans will be grateful, wort.
I love the way you write this story.
Congratulations!!
(Now as the World Cup: it’s kinda hard to say in words
feeling that hit us in Brazil, never on 100 years of
Cup lost that way, do not know if you can understand me
how was humiliating we take x 7 1 without at least our players
fight on, as was the game of Holland and Argentina who fought until the last minute. will take
long time to heal this wound.
It is very difficult trying esplicar this sense of defeat because we love football, and
especially for me I’ve been a soccer player (not professional) who also
dreams of one day seeing our women’s team win a world one day …
I’ll cheer for Germany.
Bibi28 the best man win (today) bjs for everyone!
Wow, 200 chapters… I’d love to write hundreds and thousands of chapters just for Bette and Tina. But that’s a little bit difficult to achieve, isn’t it.
I’ll try, nevertheless :)
Ahhh, it’s still been a great season for football fans. I cheer for Brazil and Germany, and Holland, and Argentina. Great game!
Bjs… is that beijos? I don’t know much Portuguese but I read a lot Paulo Coelho, and I’ve learned Spanish, found them both very beautiful languages. :)
Omg please tell me theres about to be another wedding, and im soooo happy Bette was ok. So much has happen between these two that it seems they never get a break one thing after another smh..hopefully.good times ahead..but I also agree you should definitely update the Lucky One that was also a good story…great chapter!
Yes, I believe the wedding is coming our way!
Since lots of my readers have brought up the Lucky One, I actually feel more obligated to continue plotting on that one. So, after this story is finished, I’ll return to it!
Thanks for reading and commenting. xoxo
That was awesome and glad Bette is going to be ok. Love them
Yeah, I actually felt relieved when I wrote it too. And I had to look up on wikipedia for references. hahaha that was fun.
So glad to see an update ! They’re so cute together :-)
Please post soon !
Yeah, they’re too cute. I can’t help but want to make their interaction cuter.
Thanks for commenting!
Just started reading this story when ch. 21 was posted, then went back and read from the beginning. Forgot that I did read the beginning chapter and maybe the second one. At any rate I read every chapter and I truly love this story. Happy that you will write more of the story and they do need to have more happiness together as a couple and as parents to Angelo. Bette needs the time to show Tina just how much she loves her and has missed her so much, even though she tried to pretend that she did not. Thanks for posting.
You’re absolutely right. They both have suffered a lot for their mistakes and I believe that all the suffering only bring them closer in the end.
Now it’s time to be happy. And maybe more kids? I’m thinking about lots of options here.
:)
I’m so glad that Bette’s disease is not serious. the scene in the hospital until has been investigated her, it was so much fun. the drugged Bette very funny. I wonder what Tina told her to lie still? ;)
I’m really glad that the small debate quickly resolved between them. I hope that was only good things will happen to them.
I like all the others: I want more from this story so many chapters! :-)
Oh hey, I got your PM, thank you very much!
You’ll find out what Tina told her, guaranteed something good btw :p
That’s very sweet that you want this story to last. And I’ll try in the according time to write more.
Thanks again. Hope you like the next chapter. xoxo
Thanks God Bette will be o.k.PPS
Yeah, it’s a relief. I’ll try to keep up with the posting. Thanks for reading and reviewing.
