“Bette cheats “ Tina said
“Did I add that I have already spoken to the ice cream vendor and he’s going to ring me if there is any dirty deeds. Get ready “
Bette jumped up and stood waiting for the go instruction. Tina got up and pushed Bette backwards – Bette pushed her
“God you two are like kids “
“She started it “ Bette replied
“She did “ Tina replied laughing pushing Bette again.
“Its like trying to get the horses lined up at the tape of the Grand National “ Helena said shaking her head as she watched the good natured fighting between the two women who were so obviously devoted to one another.
“Okay – 5-4-3-2-1 GO “
They started running along the sand – Helena flopped back onto the sand and watched. Bette had a style of running that was so utterly smooth – she ran gracefully – hell Bette did everything gracefully. Tina was more of a warrior – she would not be stopped at achieving anything she wanted. Helena thought that their relationship was nailed on to thrive because they had both decided that it was and their combined will was something very powerful.
She took her sun glasses from her bag and sipping her water she waited until she saw them heading back. After about 18 minutes she saw them heading back. Standing up to get a better view she saw that Bette was in the lead – Tina was hanging on close behind her but there was few doubts that Bette’s languid style was disguising the fact that Bette was as determined as Tina. Helena looked at her stopwatch – she might regret inviting these two women on the 10km race because they were both good. Tina made a last minute drive to pass Bette but the brunette kicked on and won their mini race by about 2 minutes.
“Bette by 1 minute 53 seconds “ she concluded as they both stood recovering
“Bette cheats “ Tina said
“Tina is as almost a bad loser as me “ Bette replied
Helena shook her head “ You two are fit enough for the 10km – get raising sponsorship money – I will give Nat your details – its three weeks on Sunday – 11am start “
————————————————-
Back at home Bette showered and changed and was outside watering the plants when Tina came out. She was rubbing her thigh
“You okay “
“Sore leg “
“How’s the wounded pride ?” Bette asked
“Its fine – you realise you showed your hand today – I will step up my training “
“We have three weeks “ Bette reminded her
“Scared ?”
“No”
They were laughing as a car pulled up in front of their house. The car was a top of the range jag
“Nice wheels “ Bette said
“Peggy’s got one – not as cool as that one of course “
“I hadn’t noticed any of neighbours with a car like that “
The door opened and a beautiful African American woman in her late 50’s stepped out. She looked at the couple who were looking casual in shorts, flip flops and tee-shirts. She stood looking at them for several minutes
“Can we help ? “ Tina said assuming that the woman must be lost
“I think so “
“Are you lost ?” Bette turned the hose off and watched as the woman walked up the path and stood in front of them
“I am not lost – I have found something that I lost a long time ago “
Tina took in the woman’s expensive Gucci shoes, the crisp suit and the set of pearls that hung round her neck. She was also wearing sunglasses.
“You have lost us “ Bette replied looking at Tina
“I have found you Elizabeth “
“How do you know my name ?” Bette felt her stomach churn
The woman removed her glasses and looked at her
“Because you are my daughter “

Interesting spin. PPS
Drama, drama, drama, always the drama! lol PPS:) Can’t wait to see who wins the race!
Wow, really? Well, well, well. Can Bette’s mom run fast, too?
Aww, Mama Porter ha…this is big!
Drama: Why is Bette’s mother showing up now? Stay tuned and find out. PPS
Wow…that was a surprise! Nice little twist Ally…hmmm does that mean that Melvin isn’t really Bette’s father? We’re going to need that next update sooner than we thought!
Get out! No Way!
Oh shit drama coming, let see whats gonna happen. Please post more, thanks!
Yes, many assume that Bette’s mother is white because of the show. You can have a very fair or light skin child from two Black parents, where the race mixing is further down the chain, like a grandparent. PPS:o).
WOW!!! Did not see that comming!!!! Bring on the DRAMA!!! Thank you Ally PPVS
As I was reading this story and the comments made on Bette’s mother, I thought I would add to them. The idea that Bette’s mom is African-American is wrong. Bette has admitted to being both black and white. That is the reasoning behind her wanting to use a black donor. It was so the baby would reflect her in that sense. I also noticed that someone commented on how it’s possible that the mom was also biracial and that is how Bette is part white. However, I have to disagree with that idea because if the mom was part black, it is unlikely that Bette would be so light-skinned since we all know that Melvin is nowhere near being part white. Bette would have been a little more darker if she had more black then white. Also, in Season 2, Melvin had an episode on his deathbed about how he liked seeing his two girls together getting along. He was looking at both Bette and Tina at the time, but it was obvious that he was referring to Bette’s mother. It sort of gives the impression that the biggest reason as to why he has never liked Tina is probably because she reminded him of his ex-wife who left him.
oh snap! we’re in for a bumpy ride, aren’t we?fantastic update!
drama from ally… bring it on :)
aaaaaaawwww wow, what a turn up and the mom’s African-American? way 2 go. bring it on!!!
Oh man! Drama mama!:) Great update! Thank you !
wauw – mother. Didn´t expect that to happen.
OMG what are you doing???:)PPS
This might be a stupid question because I’ sure you have your reasons – as always :-) – but isn’t B’s mom supposed to be white? I like the turn this is taking though. Few stories here tackle on B’s mom. PPS!
