“Honey, are you … um, pregnant?”
Tina smiled at her father.
“No Daddy, not this time.”
They all shared a nervous laugh and Annie spoke.
“Christina, just tell us what has you so worried.”
Tina looked into each of her parents eyes and then looked down.
“Mom, Dad, I’m in love with a woman.”
Tom Kinnard rose and walked toward the patio door.
“I’ll be right back. I just think this conversation might go better if I have a chat with my friend Mr. Jameson first.”
Tina looked at her mother and waited for a response.
“Mom?”
Annie rose from her chair and paced back and forth.
“Tina, what the hell…what the hell am I supposed to say? You’re 38 years old. Are you a lesbian? Have you been hiding this all these years?”
Tina took a deep breath.
“Mom, it’s still new. I guess I’m bisexual. No, I haven’t been hiding this, or at least I don’t think I have been. When I look at my life…I guess sexually I just thought that what I had with Joe was it …It was good, well now I know it was okay but I never really felt that feeling…that feeling… like the world stops when he looked at me or when I looked at him. Mom, I know what that feels like now. I’m really in love with her.”
Annie looked at Tina and saw the pain in her eyes.
“Christina…”
Tom returned and handed Tina and Annie a glass of Irish whiskey.
“What did I miss?”
Annie looked at her husband.
“She thinks she’s bisexual and she’s never felt this attracted to anyone before.”
Tina couldn’t help but smile at her mother’s summary.
“Christina, are you sure this isn’t some sort of wild oats sowing, or I don’t know… experiment?”
Tina looked directly into her mother’s eyes.
“I’m sure Mom.”
“Christina, what will Ellie think?”
“Mom, she knows. It was difficult at first, but she and Bette get along beautifully.”
Annie and Tom looked at each other. Tom spoke while looking at his drink.
“Chrissy, what about Joe? That’s got to be a bit of a blow to the ego? How on earth did you tell him?”
“Well, I had told him I wanted to separate to explore feelings for someone else. He wasn’t overly concerned.”

Can’t wait to see how they react to Bette! PPS
Hey D&A, Loved the stunned and shocked response from Tina’s parents. Her father’s line “Are you pregnant?” had me LOL. Too funny. Can hardly type as tears roll down my cheeks. What was great to read was how Ann and TOm rationalized their daughter’s emotions and whole being then invited her lover to their house. This shows an openess and caring nature. Having a contented and happy child is their ultimate aim rather than one who conforms to the hetero lifestyle. I am sure that sparks will fly when them meet Bette. I just can’t wait so please continue real soon. Your Loyal Fan. (Yes, still chuckling…)
DNA! You did not just leave it there…pass me the whiskey!!!
oh i can not wait for them to meet Bette.I love this story, Tinas parents will be cool, i hope.
Oh are they in for a treat. I believe when they meet the gorgeous Porter, they will be in awe of her beauty and they will see just how much she loves Tina. It’s written all over her face and her actions always. They will see and feel the force of their love and will not be able to deny it. Can’t wait to see what happens next. Thanks for posting.

That was goooood!
There is always PFLAG, the PTA for gays and lesbians LOL. Never too late to get involved mom and dad. Thanks for the post Dazed, awesome as usual.
At least, Tina’s parents have negatively taken the news lol, because parents????? they’re most of th time sucks pmsl. I am hppy for Tina that her parents are wiling to give it a shot and make sure Bette love s thir daughter. I am confident Bette willknock them out for sure lol. PPVS
It seems like it’s going well. Her parents love her and who can turn down Bette’s charm. Thanks
That was fantastic, D. Wait till dad takes a look at Bette………boo-yaa. Even, mom, noticed how Tina reacted when she spoke about Bette. D, let’s see some Irish sparks fly, but at in the end love all around. please post the next chappy soon.
A truly great chapter ! I love the very realistic way you depict the parents’ reaction : one can easily see they’ll put their love for their daughter above anything else, but at the same time it’s a huge concept to digest and, my, isn’t it usual for the old generation after all ? As a man, and an obviously sensitive and sweet one, Tom will certainly be stunned by Bette’s gorgeous appearance and so polite and brilliant attitude. I think it will be harder for Annie to accept her, until she’ll fully realize how deeply her Tina is loved. Dear author, you so perfectly paint this scene, I’m more than ever hooked by this masterpiece of a story you created ! Thank you so much for the gift – I mean it. With all my reader’s gratitude and true joy – A.
I can’t wait for them to meet Bette! I just hope Tina’s dad doesn’t drink too much and say something inappropriate…
Well that went a LOT better than it could have, especially after the revelation with Joe. I think most parents would be praying it was mid-life crisis.
PHOOEY more please…….I cannot wait until they meet Bette and see them both together…they will get it !!!! great update
A couple of glasses of Irish whiskey will kind of numb some of their pain. Then they’ll meet Bette and they will love her. PPS.
Wow! Great update. Can’t wait to see what happens when they meet Bette. Thank you :)
