The Roommates – 2nd Dimension: Chapter 33
But you made it through., said Tina.
Just then, the volume in the backyard seemed to turn up a few notches and Tina glanced around before turning to her girlfriend.
He sure was popular. There are so many people here., she said.
Bette chuckled. Yeah, he was. Grandpa was a real people person. I remember going to the store with him when I was a kid. Hed make new friends every time and it would take us forever to leave. Hed just talk and talk a mile a minute. I used to get so irritated with that.
Tina smiled warmly at her girlfriend and their brief moment was interrupted by Janices arrival.
Hi girls.
Hi., Bette and Tine responded in unison.
Janice looked down at her feet and pulled a few strands of golden locks behind her ear before making eye contact with her daughter.
Bette. I just want to apologize to you for what happened at dinner the other night. I never should have let your father get to me. I know I should have said this before now, but I just wanted you to know that Im sorry.
Betted nodded and chewed at her lip before asking, Sowas he.seeing Vivian before you left home?
Janice smiled uncomfortably and replied, I really dont think I should be the one to tell you this. But you are an adult. Your fathers affair with Vivian started years ago. The first time I knew about it was maybe.oh, 8 years ago. But I dont want to get into all that. Today is about Dad. I just wanted to apologize and let you know how proud I am that youre my daughter.
Proud?, asked Bette.
Janice reached out and stroked her daughters soft curls as she replied, Yes, proud. Sweetheart, you have turned into a beautiful young woman. And you dont have to tell me you have a good heart. I can see it in your eyes. I can see it in the company you keep.
She winked at Tina before continuing.
You keep good people around you, Bette. And you are so smart. Your father told me you made straight As in the fall. That youre on the Deans list. You have good friends, a nice boyfriend, and youre a beautiful girl. Inside and out.

I think Bette should go ahead and come out to her mother, because I think her mother is going to come out to her. (or something like that)
I knew I didn’t want to go to bed just yet, and now I know why! *Sigh* Just when I thought things were looking up for Janice and Bette. Hopefully they’ll come to an understanding one day. Did anyone catch Tina’s Freudian slip? I guess we’ll find out. By the way, that balloon idea is really cool! Thanks for posting two days in a row, MTS!! You have no idea how happy that makes me! :D
2 posts two days in a row……..
Yayyyy!!!!
I agree with techgal.
EEE! 2 updates in 2 days…life is good!
Keep going hun, you know how addicted I am!
Great!!!!!!! 2 days in a row so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bette should remember that she too is lying to everyone right now too. post soon
Good chapter the struggle and tension with mom is very realistic. I think mom is going to figure out what’s up with Bette and Tina. You gave us a wonderful treat with back to back post.
MTS, you are always so consistant with each chapter and your characters have so many dimensions. Did Janice not catch Tina say babe? Also, I like the fact that Bette wants the truth from her parents while she’s keeping who Tina really is a secret.
I’m loving this story! I find it interesting that Bette wants her parents to be honest with her, but she’s keeping a secret about who Tina really is.
MTS ~ thanks for making those balloons environmentally friendly ;) Oh yeah, deep stuff here…I don’t even want to guess where you’re going with this but I’ll be awaiting to find out, Lab Coat!
Since everyone else is coming clean, Bette should, too. But, I’m sure as a young adult and just being reaquainted with her mom, after so much time, I think it’s still a ways off, before the love of Bette’s life is exposed. I really love this story. More, when you can, please.
great chapter, thank you. i think bette also should come clean to her mom, she’s trying, but it seems hard, hmm? and bette’s mom didn’t catch the “babe?” it will sink in sooner or later i imagine, wow, 2 posts, 2 days :) see you soon hopefully!
You are simply amazing!! I just read the last 2 chapters and I am in awe…I am a little scared of you though, my name is Vivian and I am a Real Estate Broker..you were close! LOL
You amaze me. Totally AWESOME as usual. Still loving it so post soon kiddo.
wow great chapter..Janice didn’t even notice tina called bette babe…….THANKS.POST SOON
It’s understandable for Bette to be frustrated by all the lies that are not/should not be necessary, whether it be about her mother’s affair, her father’s affair, or her own sexuality and relationship with Tina. I really hope things work out for B&T.
One thing, though. The focus on Tina’s red shirt… are B&T going to come back with switched shirts and Janice will say, “Bette, I like that shirt, it’s just like Tina’s… wait…” lol just a thought that crossed my mind. And like some of the other readers, I didn’t pick up on the significance of Tina calling Bette “babe,” but that might just be because I often use endearments when talking to my friends. Either way that she interprets it, I hope the Janice/Bette relationship eventually reaches some solid, common ground.
Great job, please post more asap!!

Wonderful two chapters. I feel bad for BEtte, all that can’t be easy. Can’t wait for more. Love it.
