Soul Mates – Chapter 8
"What was what, Kit?"
"Don’t give me that shit. That has to be the 50th call that girl has made in the past week"
Bette knew rolling her eyes would probably be a mistake but she did it anyway, "Your point being?"
"That you need to get off your stubborn ass and pick up the phone next time she calls"
"For what, Kit? To hear how sorry she is and how she didn’t mean to hurt me but wants forgiveness anyway?" Bette lifted her head to meet her sister’s eyes, the pain and frustration in her expression couldn’t be mistaken.
Kit shrugged a single shoulder as she tried not to be intimidated by her younger sister. Bette could easily wear down the toughest of the tough, she had a very strong personality that Kit often admired except in this situation, "Its a start. You both acted like stubborn fools but at least she’s brave enough to try and own up to it by callin’ you every damn hour of the day. At least hear her out, she deserves that much"
"She’s the one who left, Kit. Again I might add. I don’t think she deserves anythin’"
"Yeah well, who kicked her out? Again I might add"
Bette licked her trembling lips, her sister’s words had cut deep but she knew that Kit was right even if she wouldn’t admit it out loud. Before she could comment, Kit continued.
"Bette . ." She said softly, "I know its scary, especially after all you two have been through but you can’t always be so proud"
Unable to look into her sister’s eyes anymore, Bette dropped her head and pressed her lips tightly together as a few tears fell onto the floor. Kit gently grasped Bette’s chin and raised her sister’s head so that they could regain eye contact.
"Sometimes you have to let people in. You keep pushin’ people away but at the same time you expect them to be there for you. Its not as easy to deal with as you may think. You say you want her to have a good life secretly hopin’ she chooses you and when she actually does, you throw her out on her ass. Can you even be mad that she left?"

Loved this update and this story. Excellent. Go get her Bette. Thank you.
Thanks God for Kit !Great update,amazing story.PPS
bette is so thick in the head in this one. wake up and start treating tina right. Helena is so sweet. if Bette doesn’t want to fight for Tina, please set her free and let Helena win her over again.
helena is sweet, decent, and beautiful. so if Bette wants to push Tina away…i won’t blame Tina for feeling something for Helena after being jilted. Bette wake up. Go get Tina or else someone else will!
Yep, Bette would probably appreciate hearing that she was always the first choice. But she’ll have to get her head out of her pittuty to hear it. :-) Thank heaven for the superior mule-handling skills of Alice and Kit. Now when are we gonna learn what Bette’s been up to in her world-conquering activities? Maybe at the big show? (Doncha hate it when readers try to guess what’s coming? OK, I’ll stop doing that.)
They both gotta fight for each other!
This Bette really is a stubborn dumbass. :-) I love this chapter.
I love the phrase that it takes a village to raise a child. I sometimes think that it takes an extended family to get two people together who fate has guided to be in the same space so that they can chose their destiny to be together. Besides anything worth having is worth fighting for. Me thinks that the two lovers are ready to fight for each other!
You better get on it Bette! Liah you are doing a kick ass job with this story. Thanks Doll!!!!
Someone has to make the first big overture or grand gesture… may as well be Bette since she seems to have been laboring under a lot of assumptions. Tina spilled her guts to everyone but Bette it seems (maybe she would have if Bette would have picked up the phone or seen her, though). Maybe once she gets to Alabama Bette will sweep her off her feet (in more ways than one)? A girl can hope ;) Thanks for the post! :)
Great update. Bette, swallow your pride and call Tina now, you just might be happy that you did. Thanks.
I’ve read the chapter a few times more and I think if Tina calls again she should tell Bette that she loves her and only her and wants to make their marriage work and that the divorce has been called off. I think Btte needs to hear that. Can’t wait to see what Bette thinks of the fashion show being in town. This is a great story.
wonderfull update thanks!!
last line said it all. yeah.. thanks KIT… love this… and i have to give alice credit too… great job… pss
