Say Nothing Chapter 8
“Sarah, we are going to walk around a bit. We will be back by here before we leave.”
“Thanks for coming by Tina. Nice to meet you Ms. Porter.” A smile graced Sarah’s face as she said her farewell.
“Please call me Bette. And, it was such a pleasure to meet you both. I am in awe of your talent Sarah. You are absolutely amazing.” Bette gushed. She was truly inspired.
Tina walked Bette through the village and spoke with several of the artists as they made their way back to the park where Sarah and Jeff were working.
“We are going to head out but we wanted to stop back by. Bette would like to know how to contact you guys.”
Bette smiled. “I would like to share your incredible story if that would be OK. I have a friend who is a writer and I know that she would be interested in doing a story on you.”
“Well, that would be fine but I cannot imagine that there is really much of a story here. I don’t really see us as different from any other artists. We just do our thing.” Sarah is so totally unaffected by their circumstances.
“Well, I don’t know about that. You are both very inspiring and I think your story is fascinating.” Bette was very sincere. Jeff went into their cottage to write down their contact information. When he returned he pressed the piece of paper gently into Bette’s hand and leaned to whisper to her. “She really has no idea how talented she is.” He looked lovingly at Sarah and smiled. Bette held onto his hand a bit longer than may have been necessary but, she wanted to convey her concurrence. They shared knowing smiles.
“We had better get back so we can get you to the airport. We don’t want you to miss your flight.” Tina winked at Bette.
“Have a safe flight back to LA Bette.”
“Thank you Sarah. Again, it was so nice to meet you both.” Bette turned to leave with Tina but, she could not help looking back at the artist couple who were so in tune with each other.
The drive back to Tina’s was quiet. Bette had many things on her mind as she stared out the side window of the car.
“You OK?” Tina asked. sure that everything was fine but Bette was even more quiet than she had been.
“Oh yeah, I’m fine. I was just thinking that I finally understand.” Bette’s voice trailed off.
“You understand what?” Tina looked sideways at Bette.
“I understand why you will never come back to the States to live.” Bette’s voice had a somber tenor to it. But, she took in the beauty of the events of the past few days.
“I can’t. I just can’t leave here. It’ my home and I absolutely love it here.” Tina smiled with her thoughts.

What an enchanting chapter! You really made us visualize all the beautiful details that surrounds Tina’s life. While she shared her world with Bette, including her friends, it made Bette understand Tina’s reluctance to leave everything behind. We loved Tina’s self confidence and how she can be on the same high standard levels that Bette has. Hmmm We surely did enjoy this marvellous update. Can’t wait to have more.
