Bette stood up, her palms sweating, and nodded to the woman at the desk. “That’s me”, she said.
Annette Jamison smiled. She introduced herself and said, “Let’s go to my office.”
The dark-haired beauty nodded again before grabbing her backpack and following Annette out of the reception area, down a bank of offices. When they reached the end of their short journey, Annette closed the door behind them and Bette took a seat in front of the desk.
“So Ms. Porter, what can I do for you today?”, she asked, slipping into her chair, looking over at Bette behind her wire-rimmed glasses.
Dark brown eyes looked down before looking back up and over towards Annette. The curly-haired young woman swallowed thickly and tried to find the right words for this conversation. How much should she say? What shouldn’t she say?
“I….uhhhh, I wanted to talk to you about being declared an independent.”
Annette’s eyes grew wider. “Okay.”
“You seem a little surprised. Is this a rare request?”, asked Bette.
“Honestly, it is. I don’t get too many students walking in and wanting to be declared as independents.”
Bette nodded, embarrassment rising up within. “Oh. I…I didn’t know that. I really, don’t know what else to do.”
Annette smiled softly. Her heart went out to this young woman with the sad eyes. “Bette, what’s your UID?”, she asked, referring to the university’s system for student and faculty identification codes.
The numbers flew from Bette’s lips to Annette’s fingertips and in seconds, the dark-haired beauty’s UCLA financial history was on the screen.
“It looks like your account is in great standing. It’s up to date through the spring semester. You don’t have any loans or grants. Just a few scholarships..”
Bette nodded and chewed at her lip. “Sounds right. My father….he’s been paying for nearly everything.”
The financial aid officer took off her glasses and said, “Has that changed?”
“It will. My father….he’s upset with me. He told me he was going to cut me off….financially.”
Annette nodded. “And your mother, what about her?”

Man this was rough. I’m not gonna do my happy dance just yet, but it’s definitely a surprise that Bette’s mom called her. I just hope it’s not a drama-rama phone call late at night.
I don’t know who is more excited about Bette’s mom calling her, me or Bette. This is getting very interesting. Maybe now her mother will be there for her. Tina is trying so hard to help Bette through this situation. Post again quickly.
I knew Kit would talk to Maxine!!!

It’s always comforting to know that someone understands your dilemma. Hope Bette’s mom comes thru for her, where she hadn’t before. Another great chapter. Thanks!

Awesome story. Great writing. More please!
OMG, You’re back.. You are BACK.. *Screaming my lungs out* YOU ARE BACK.. And this story is just as great as I remember it..
Okay, Okay. Thank you. Phone call from Mom. That’s a good thing right???? Thanks for letting Bette meet someone today that was able to help her alittle in her emotional time of need. Please continue. Loving to more frequent posts.
You’re such a brilliant writer and I just adore this story. Keep those chapters coming.. please!
BABY(sigh). Great cliffhanger. Come on now, your #1 editor needs another chapter. PRONTO! Keep up the good work!
Not quite the silver lining Bette was hoping for at the financial aid office but at least she has a liitle hope. So Bette’s mom is calling-I don’t know if I’m happy or concerned? Post soon!
This is sad for them and hope Bettes mother will help her and support her. OK post soon please, thanks!
Bette’s mom to the rescue, or I hope so. I hope everything works out for her and Tina.
I believe that if Bette’s mum is helping her, which i really hope, Melvin’s ego is gonna blow up !! Finally hope for the little ones !
This is soooooooooo goooooooooood!More more more!!!!
MTS, Again with your brilliance. I love the way that you bring out the best in baby Bette and Tina. Even after all of the lies and the way the truth was outed they are there together. Worried and concerned about each other and not caring about themselves. This selflessness is so touching and honest as it demonstrates the true meaning of love. And as for Annette, what a wonderful way to give Bette hope for her future with Tina. And as for her mother’s sudden call, what on earth is that all about? Can’t wait to see where this leads. Thnak you for this delightful read. Even in the worst of times it puts a smile on my face and a warm glow in my heart. Your Loyal Fan.
Twists and turns–got me glued to the story you have!!! :-D
Yeah, I don’t see why Bette can’t apply for a scholarship. It’s more like an award than aid, isn’t it. But it’ll be great if Bette’s mom could set up a connection with Bette again.
Ihope mom comes through…..that would be great. Thanks for a great chapter.
Great story! Now, lets just hope Maxine comes through for Bette and that Tina’s parentals dont find out just yet. Post soon!!!
Doing a happy dance to see you are back!! Thanks!
i hope everything will work out..maybe maxine has lots of money saved and wants to help bette…as long as B&T are together they can overcome anything
