The Journey 20
Tina: Well I guess that about answered my question, we know she didn’t come home to make us right. I get back in the car silently. Bette does not seem to notice there is a problem. She is still trying not laugh.
Bette: “Does Sam know you are still married?” I am not serious.
Tina: “Not that it would be any of your business.”
Bette: I realize something is wrong. “Tina, hey, I was kidding, just trying to lighten things up.”
Tina: “What, by thinking us getting a divorce or not getting one is funny?”
Bette: I get serious. “No, Tina. I never thought any of what happened with us was ever funny.”
Tina: I start to thaw a little, as Bette said, it would be a shock, all of this. “We never talked about it.” I whisper.
Bette: I sigh. “No, Tee, we didn’t. Do you want to, I mean does it matter now?”
Tina: “You tell me Bette, does it matter now?”
Bette: “Tina, I tried for 6 months, every waking minute, to get you to talk to me about this stuff, and you wouldn’t have any of it. If you want to talk about, we can, but I’m not taking the blame for us not talking about it.”
Tina: “Then when you didn’t get what you wanted, you pissed off.”
Bette: “Hey, that’s not exactly true or fair, Tina.” Annoyance crept into my voice. Any thoughts I had of home being where I live and us being altogether had disappeared. “Come on, let’s go.”
Tina: “Avoiding again Bette?”
Bette: “No, Tina. I am not, but it is late and we have talked a lot tonight. If there are questions you need answered, I will answer them, but I think we will do better talking about them another time.”
Tina: Bette’s honesty about these things is a new thing to me, and I am still adapting. She has started the car and begun to drive, which means our conversation is at an end, at least for tonight. Bette drops us off, helps me get
Bette: “OK then, I will talk to you soon. Tina, about tonight, you know we are going to have times when it’s not smooth; we shouldn’t get all bent out of shape. Let’s just be honest.”
Tina: “Sure. Thank you, Bette for not making this harder than it is.” *****, I said that out loud.
Bette: I think what she just said is, “Thank you for not making this harder than it is.” “Good night Tina.” I lean forward and kiss her on the cheek. I get into the car and lean my head forward. Why would this be hard for her? It is what she wanted, isn’t it?
Tina: I watch Bette through the curtains. She sits in the car doing nothing for a few minutes, then starts the engine. “Good night Bette.”
