Soul Mates – Chapter 4
"I just . . wanted to say sorry, I guess. I made a fool out of myself and . . God, I’m just so sorry . ."
She lifted her head and looked at Bette with glassy eyes before whispering, "For everythin’"
Bette swallowed and felt the lump that had formed in her throat. She knew tears would soon follow and quickly tried to will them away. She felt so much sincerity in those words it was hard to keep her composure. Drunk or sober, Tina truly meant what she said. It made Bette’s decision to sign the divorce papers that much harder to accept.
Forcing her best smile, she shrugged her shoulders and shook her head, "Its fine, don’t worry about it" She said before turning to look at the water before she lost her composure.
Most people probably would have believed Bette’s words. The smile, though forced was very believable and her tone of voice was so calm that anyone else wouldn’t have picked up on the hidden emotions beneath.
Then again, Tina wasn’t like anyone else. She saw those words for what they were, she always had. It was a trait they shared with each other, a connection that apparently didn’t sever even after five years apart.
Tina shifted on the pier, bringing up a leg and bending it so that she could rest her weight on her thigh. This allowed her a better view of the brunette beside her. The woman who had stolen her heart so many years ago . . and by signing those papers . . she had also given it back.
"Bette . . look at me"
Tina watched as Bette struggled with whether or not to fulfill the request. The brunette pressed her lips tightly together and Tina knew it was because she was fighting back tears. Bette rarely cried for anything and it broke Tina’s heart to know that she was the cause. She gently placed her hand on Bette’s cheek, turning her head so that their eyes could meet. The brunette still couldn’t bring herself to look at Tina so her eyes quickly dropped, looking down at the wooden planks of the pier.

First of all, so sorry for your loss but pleased that writing helps you feels better and we reap the benefits with your wonderful stories.I wish i was disciplined enough to not read your chapters when you post them, but wait until i can read the whole story as one block. But i’m not that person, so just jump to read your story as soon as i find your new chapters! Please post soon and hope you continue to feel better in the days to come. x
Hi Liah .. I am sorry for your lost! It’s though and I hope you’ll feel better soon. And thanks for another update from you!! :-)
WOW they are to explode when they actually touch each other again I am loving this slow burn. This story is nothing short of brilliant never really cared for the movie but I love the premise….
I know how you feel Tina, because the next post seems so far away 😝loved it very much Liah. You rocked the beginning of my weekend. Thank you 😃👍
I’m really sorry for your loss. Thanks for taking the time to write and post, this story rock.
So sorry for your loss, just remember the good times. The story is really wonderful and you are pacing it just fine. You did however leave us hangin’ just a little and I understand but, still I wanted just a bit more. Wish they would admit to wanting each other again and never having stopped loving each other. helena should have contacted Tina before announcing the engagement, that was totally unfair. But in the end helena will have egg on her face, at least I hope. Thanks for taking the time to post while in mourning, it is really appreciated.
With the excitement of leaving a message for this wonderful update I forgot to say I’m so sorry for your loss. If it’s any consolation, they are forever in our hearts. Take care.
Absolutely wonderful. Thank you.
