So it begins
Tina was snapped from her reminiscing thoughts as the announcement of her arrival at her station came over the train’s tannoy system. That night had been a year ago and still she had done noting, nothing to help, nothing to find a way in, nothing except watch and wait. Rising each day she was at home to watch as the pain filled eyes stared unseeing out of the house across the road. Tomorrow she decided, at that moment as she stood in the very sot she had first seen her having made her way home, tomorrow she would go over there tomorrow she would start to heal the soul she knew she must to make her own whole.
07:22
Bette lay in bed watching the clock having awoken a while ago, but she would not rise until 07:30 as that was her routine, that was when the alarm would sound and she would feel free to start the day.
Then a shower, long and hot. Dry hair, do make up, get dressed……… the list went on for in the list, in the routine the broken brunette found comfort. Each day the same, no deviation from the path she had so carefully set. As she stood in the kitchen onto the next stage of her routine, waiting for the coffee machine to finish its daily work, her eye caught the calendar. A year today since her arrival in this place, could that be right? Had it really been a year? A year since she had entered her fortress and begun her new life, never in that time stepping beyond the confines of her porch and back garden, it had gone so quickly and so slowly all at once and Bette had no idea of how to feel. Proud in a way that she had survived, shocked at the passage of time, a rare flash of anger at herself for having no idea how to get past this and sorrow for all she knew she was missing. Yet she also felt the thing that kept her here in this fortress of solitude, she felt safe, safe and in control and that overwhelmed any and all emotions for her.
By 08:45 she was dressed for her day and holding her coffee in hand as she moved to her place of vigil by the window, she tugged the certain aside for her daily exposure to the outside world, letting in the daylight to her beautifully decorated and maintained home. Decorated as such for her own pleasure as she was sure now that no other human would ever enter its protective walls. The coming year, here second here would prove her to be wrong on that count, but for now the routine went on.

Well hopefully it begins…I mean if Bette continues to let Tina talk to a door and not open it and introduce herself I dont see anything happening lol….nice start but they way well written and detailed, got my attention!
I enjoyed this introduction from both Bette and Tina.
I believe Tina is able to pull Bette outside her own house and start living a real life again.
Please continue.
Great writing. Brilliant! Please continue.
Really enjoyed it. Looking forward to more. Thanks
Very interesting beginning to your story. By the end I had so many questions that I’m sure you’ll answer all in good time. I liked the way you developed the characters just enough to cause curiosity to want to know more about them, Interesting that they both chose England to land and call home. But as life goes, all things happen for a reason.
Yes, I could feel destiny at work here with an uncontrollable urges that both felt in recognizing the other, whether through the view of each others’ body or in the eyes, windows to their souls. Tina, being the doctor, looks into others’ eyes all the time and can see so much about the person. Bette’s daily routine has been interrupted by this other woman’s energy and it has opened up her world to be able to see again.
Excited to see where you are heading with this. Thank you!
