    The Burden of Control – Chapter 5

    Bette: (confused) I
    said that I was sorry.

    Kit: Thats the
    difference, Bette. Melvin never once apologized. Not to you, not to meand
    certainly not to out mothers. He just
    went to the next woman like it meant nothing to him.

    Bette: It doesnt
    matter. A cheater is a cheater. Im no better than him.

    Kit: Bette its not
    the same.

    Bette: Isnt it? I
    mean I loved Tina and I vowed to honor her and our commitment to one
    anotherthat meant something to me. It meant the world to me. (pauses) (sadly)
    I dont know how that changed.

    Kit: (kindly)
    Sometimessometimes people just drift apart.

    Bette: We stopped
    talking. WeI took her for granted. I even questionedwhile we were in
    therapyif I was starting to fall out of love.

    Kit: Were you?

    Bette: NoI dont
    know. I know that having children togetherwell I know that it doesnt fix
    problems. But when we found out she was pregnant. (smiles) God, it was the best
    feeling in the world. Id watch her sleep and Id place my hand on her stomach
    and just imagine the little life growing inside of her. It was amazing. And
    there were times when Id look at herreally look at herand Id see love and
    happiness reflected in her eyes. Things started to feel right again (sadly)
    But then after we lost(pauses) afterwards, I just didnt know how to reach
    her. I didnt know how to be there for her. I wasnt thereit was my fault.

    Kit: Baby girl, it was
    NOT your fault.

    Bette: I should have
    been thereat the doctors office, but I got held up at work. ***** work. By
    the time I got there, Tina was already gone. Kit, she drove herself home after
    learning that she lost the baby. She had to ***** drive herself home. I
    wasnt ***** there for her. (pauses) When I got home, I promised myself that
    Id be strong for her. When I saw herin
    our bedroomsobbing, grieving for out babyI just gathered her up and held her.

    Kit: You had no way of
    knowing.

    Bette: Thats not the
    point. I should have been there. She
    shouldnt have gone through that alone. (pauses) Its no wonder why she didnt
    tell me about this pregnancy.

    Kit glances up at her sister. Her jaw is set and outwardly
    she shows no real emotion. But looking at her eyes, Kit could see pain and
    disappointment.

    Kit: Bettehave you talked to Tina about this
    baby?

    BetteNo. (pauses) She
    doesnt know that I know. I dont want to bring it upI dont want her getting upset.

    Kit: But Bette.

    Bette: (interrupts)
    Kit, no. I wont cause her any more undo stress. Shes been through enoughbecause of me. I
    wouldnt want to be the cause of something happening to her baby.

    Kit: You dont think

    Bette: I wont risk
    it. If Tina wanted me to know about it, then she would have told me weeks ago.

    Kit: She was very
    upset a few weeks ago. Shes had time to process things…you both have. Maybe
    she needed time

    Bette: Time to what?
    Move on? Isnt that what shes already one with
    Helena?

    Kit: You dont know
    how serious that all is. You certainly cant take
    Helenas claims at face value. You said it
    yourself, she doesnt like you. Maybe shes building up her relationship more
    than it really is just to make you angry and jealous.

    Bette: Well shes
    doing a good job.

    Kit: Can I ask you a
    question?

    Bette: You know you
    can.

    Kit: Bette I want an
    honest answer. Completely honest.

    Bette: (wary) Ok.

    Kit: Are you still in
    love with Tina?

    (TBChopefully tomorrow)
