Say Nothing Chapter 17
“I thought we would leave tomorrow if we can book the flight.” Bette walked to where Tina was seated and standing next to her, she ran her fingers through Tina’s hair.
“I’ll miss you.” Bette’s words were soft and tender.
“I’ll miss you more than I can say.” Tina smiled up at Bette and wrapped her arm around Bette’s waist.
Bette sat her coffee cup on the table, went to the counter to retrieve the plate of fresh fruit she had cut up for them and returned to the table sitting close to Tina.
“So you will be back before the exhibit opens?” Bette knew it was going to be about 6 weeks before the opening and only two weeks before they would make a formal announcement.
“I think we should go ahead and make the announcement while I am still here. How do you feel about that?”
“That depends on how long after the announcement is made you plan on being here for interviews. You know it is going to be crazy.”
“No, I don’t really know that. My European exhibits have much less attention than what you are expecting here. I mean there are the usual interviews and that type of thing but, nothing to the extent that you are thinking is going to happen here.”
“My thinking is that Giselle will be needed as well. She can help James and I am sure that won’t hurt their feelings. I think we should bring in Alice, let her write an article for her magazine. It will publish next week.. The day after her article hits, we will have an announcement put on the website and then the gallery will release it’s own statement. Alice will get her exclusive. Not to mention that it will be big for the magazine as well. We will issue our statement and you can answer questions. We will set up a small invitation only soiree’ for the press at the gallery and get it all over with.” Bette smiled, she knew going into this that it was going to be big, but, the enormity of the event is now sinking in.
“Whatever you think best. This is your area of expertise. I wouldn’t begin to tell you how to do your job. You’re masterful at it.” Tina’s smile just about melts Bette.

I hope your ‘bad news’ isn’t too awful..best wishes for your family thanksgiving. Love the story, glad to see they’ve agreed on a relationship of some kind or other. I imagine their love will take care of that!
I hope that your time with your family goes well. Enjoy that special time with them. I am excited that Bette and Tina have decided to continue this relationship whether long distance of in the same house.
Hope everything works out fine for you, sweetie. As for this update, it was enchanting, dearest DJRK. Tina is really finding the right way to relax Bette and give the exhibit a good perspective. Now that both have agreed to the path they shall take, they are more at ease with each other and able to express more their true feeling. Hugs and kisses on both your cheeks. Give our best to your beautiful half ChaCha. She’s a real keeper. PPS Lucero & Marsha (JC’s Salsa Aunties)

Thanks so much for another chapter. Your Tina is unravelling control freak Bette and it is wonderful
wow, another great chapter… u really didn’t disappoint us… and pps…:)
I absolutely love this story. I am so glad that your partner gave you some new ideas, so it can continue for awhile. Enjoy your Thanksgiving and your time with your father. I took care of my mother who had alzheimer’s for over seven years. Although, it was a daily experience, I was happy that I could be there for her.
watching them part will be torture…make the time go by fast please. i think bette feels if tina moves she will lose some of what makes her the “tina kenard” and the love of art in her will not let her agree to tina giving up her creativity.
Everything’s working out very nicely. I wonder how long it will be until one or the other moves their life halfway across the world? Hope your visit and the dinner go well. Lovely chapter, thanks for posting, djrk.
I love this story and I love Thanksgiving…it is probably my favorite holiday. Food, Family, Friends and Football. What more could we ask for? Oh…and update to this story! So glad you are going to continue it..and I hope you both have a wonderful time with your families.
Finally – they really talked. And with what a wonderful outcome! hope they stay strong through all the exibit craziness and their time apart! Looking forward to your next post! have a good week!! Thanks.
Thanks again for another beautiful chapter of your story – I really enjoy B&T communication. Hope they’ll be able to create strong relationship.. My best wishes for you, let all your problems and worries disappear.
