    The Journey 18

    Chapter 18 – Family night

     

    I hear Tina’s car pull up. Right on time 6pm. We agreed to have a makeshift family night tonight after missing our first family night on Thursday. I am excited to see both Tina and Laurel. I am looking forward to getting to know my daughter. I peek out the window and see Tina getting Laurel out the backseat of the car. I have been preparing for their arrival since I got home. I bought fresh flowers, light pink tulips, I opened all the blinds to let the perfect amount of light in and I vowed to make a thai prawn salad for dinner (Tina’s favourite), so I stopped at the shop too. I’ve had a shower and gotten changed. I want to Tina to know I was not kidding when I said “Tina, I hope I have made it clear to you I consider Laurel to be our daughter. I want us to raise her, you and me Tina, together.” I privately wonder if Tina took my meaning. I open the door and there they are, Tina with Laurel in one arm and all the baby accessories in the other.

    Bette : “Here, let me take that” I lean forward and take the accessories.

    Tina : “Thanks, hi Bette.” I can’t help but notice Bette has gone to a lot of trouble, fresh flowers too. Bette always had exquisite taste in flowers. I wonder what tine she left work, had to be early. Once upon a time Bette would have left me stranded outside.

    Bette : “Hi Tina, come on in. I left work a little early” as I take Laurel into my arms I see Tina looking around. I kiss Laurel on the cheek “It’s so good to see her again” I say to Tina as I tickle Laurel and make her giggle. I am relieved that she has taken to me. It doesn’t go unnoticed that Tina isn’t sure whether to sit, stand or follow me around.

    Bette : “So, Tina, how was your day ?” I call out from the kitchen. “Do you want a drink ?”

    Tina : “A water would be great, oh, it was OK, you know the usual, busy” I sit on the couch and wait for Bette to come back. She returns with a drink and Laurel, looking radiant.

    1. Still lovin this story. YOur doing such a good job of moving it along just right. Its so nice the continual get togethers, talking to themselves and each other. Bette is treading so lightly. Glad Tina told her its not exclusive with Sam, now if Tina would just catch on. And Family Night, yeah like it should be. Look forward to the next chapter.

    2. this is really really a good story: full of emotions, witty dialogues. i agree with coop that it is nice to read their thoughts in between. keep going and thanks.

    3. that was great..baby steps now they have to know each other again and rediscover themselves as one again..and Tina is given to Bette all the indications she wants her in her life again and yes they are in the right path..i just need to have patience..lol..another great chapter post soon thanks :o)

    4. well i agree with all the insightful ladies in front of me. tina cant be that stewpid, right. or is she in denialville. or just hesistant. love how your writing this. the pace is good. loved seeing everyone together without sam the sullen. your pulling me along ubk. soon baby.

    5. Great chapter. Keep them coming. With all the supposed spoilers taking a hold in so many other spoilers. It’s good to see Tina and Bette in this light.

    6. Just had to let you know I was one of your loyal fans with Foolish Moves – there were moments I thought I was going to implode from the pace!! lol But, that was part of the beauty of that story…….so, this is all to say – I love this story as well! There is a uniqueness to your writing that is very captivating. Thank you!

    7. Babt steps, Reminds me of ababy taking her first steps,need something to hold on too, They need to hold on to each other to get to know each other again and become friends, Just not the baby to bind them together, thanks

    8. I don’t think Tina’s completely oblivious to Bette’s intentions… her heart still remembers where home is even if it hasn’t found the best route to get her there. Thanks for the info on the MIA postcards.

    9. 2 days without an update and I thought I was going to die. Great chapter and I am really enjoying the pace you are setting. All though..I am so ready for a real kiss. : )

    10. I wonder what time she left work, had to be early. Once upon a time Bette would have left me stranded outside.
      I had to laugh at this because it was so true.
