“I begin to treasure Peggy more and more “ Helena said dryly “She is pretty loose with who she sleeps with but she does it discretely “
“There is nothing much discrete about Peggy “
“ See my mother is very big on protecting the good name of the family.” Helena grinned and started doing a good parody of Peggy’s husky tone “The Peabody family name is an old and distinguished one “
Bette laughed “Is it old and distinguished ?”
“Heaven knows darling – you know Peggy well – she is a frightful old snob – but as I am a frightful young snob I shouldn’t say that about dear mamma “
Bette sighed “Do you think I did the right thing in getting Tina out of there ?”
Helena nodded “Absolutely – you can only go on what you know is right for Tina. Has she said anything ?”
“Not really – we were awake most of the night with her just lying holding onto me. When I got off the phone at 5am and told her that we had a flight booked she burst into tears and hugged me for ages. She cried buckets at the airport with Finn and Willow. Then when we got on the plane she just seemed to shrink into herself “
“I have seen her do that before – I felt so helpless “
“What did you do ?”
“At the time I cursed that she wasn’t out because that was what her crisis was about. I hoped that when she finally came out and started seeing you that it would become a thing of the past but this seems to have triggered it again “
“What should I do ?”
“What you are doing now – loving her and being there for her. She’s going to need you very much Bette “
“I have never had anyone need me the way that I know Tina does “ Bette said wistfully
“And you like it ?”
“Its strange but its nice. I want her to know that she can lean on me and I will be there so that she can fall if she wants and I’ll catch her “
Helena was impressed at Bette – damn what was the world coming to when Bette Porter could turn out to be a devoted and wonderful girlfriend ?

I can definately see Tina’s point
oh boy i understand tina, her parents arrangment is nuts but it’s theirs! :)PPS
Hello AllyE, Now these new additions are coming thick and fast. I love it. Good to see Bette and Helena chat about Tina and her family in an open and friendly manner. I think that Helena’s and Bette’s desire to protect Tina will untie them in friendship. Helena gave Bette some pointers in how to deal with this whole mess. Bette showed that she has grown up immensely from her dalliance and is now fully committed to her girlfriend. then Bette’s return home. Tina was remote and testy at first. Bette’s constant support and comfort won through in the end as Tina opened up and let herself be loved and hugged. So precious and tender. Loved all of it. Your grateful and Loyal Fan.
when i read the summary i wondered who’s snow white:) i love this story, glad to see it’s back!
I understand Tina’s point from her vantage point, but her parents have a system that works for them. Tina is being VERY atipical by judging her mother, while overlooking her father’s behavior. Either you leave the entire situation alone because it is NONE of your business, or you equally address both sides. Bottom line, Tina is a “Daddy’s girl”, been there and done that. PPS :o).
Glad that you are back! I have missed this story!!! Love how Bette is being such a wonderful partner, and how she suppports and nurtures Tina instead of running or being indifferent. PPVS
Frankly some of these people need to grow up; Sarah, Niall, and Tina. Tina will never change the way they view the world and their place in it. They are “60’s free love hippies” and will not change their views. Personally, I think her mother is a “slut,” pure and simple and her father is the male equivalent, although he is a little more discreet than Sarah. Other hippie types came back to the real world of respectability and responsibility, especially when they had a family to care for. Why cana’t Sarah and Niall. At least Bette is there for Tina and will continue to try to help her thru this. Just my opinion. Thanks for posting. Post when you can AllyE.
Hey Ally, I’m glad to see you back and even happier for this update. Boy Tina and her Mom really went at it. I understand Tina’s feelings, but it’s interesting that she doesn’t feel the same way about her Father’s indiscretions. Hope to have another update soon!
glad to see you back. thx for the update.
Poor Tina, I can’t see them talking anytime soon, she was unfair to her, but I am glad that she has someone that she can lean on. Thanks Ally, I missed this story.
This is great!! You’re keeping us going with all your stories. We love it when you share so much!!! Keep it up if you can. Thanks!!!
aaahhhh the mother issues!!! But Bette’s right; what about the father??? It must have been hard for Tina and her siblings but they r adults now and if they don’t like what their parents do they should cut the cord. They don’t have to like their parents or agree with their activities. Hard to learn & to do but necessary if we want to be happy, independent adults. PPS.
Great chapter, What makes Tina’s dads behavior any better than her moms. It seems he can do no wrong in her eyes. I hope she lets Bette in and keeps talking. PPS
Oh I missed this story. Hopefully everyone will calm down a bit. I find it strange that Tina continues to think her dad is a saint in all this mess. But someone is always going to be good and someone else bad. Thanks for posting!
That was great!
