“She’s been in and out of my life for the past few years. She doesn’t support me.”
“So, as I understand it, you haven’t formerly been a ward of the court?”, asked Annette.
“No.”
“And you’re not married?”
“No.”
“Do you have any children? Any dependents?”
“No.”
Annette sighed, “I don’t think you’ll eligible for classification as an Independent.”
This news stabbed Bette in the heart. It was her last hope. “No? Are you sure?”, she asked.
“Yes. Your father refusing to pay for your education isn’t enough for you to be declared independent.”
Bette felt the tears spring to her eyes. She chewed on her lip and reached for her bag. She was tired of fighting, she’d been fighting all weekend. She was still drained . “Are there any other options?”, she asked, desperation rising as she spoke.
There was something about the curly haired freshman that really touched a nerve with Annette. “There’s always more than one option.”
Bette let go of her shoulder strap and sat back down in her seat. “Okay”
“Can you tell me a little bit of what’s going on? That’ll help. Maybe we can find you some scholarships or additional merit-based aid. Is your GPA decent?”
“It’s good. I’ve got a 4.0.”
Annette smiled. “Well, that’s a start. With a GPA like that, I’m sure we can help you out. I can’t believe you’re not on a full scholarship.”
Bette shrugged. “I don’t know. My father and I never talked much about scholarships. He’s happy to pay for school. It’s an accomplishment for him. Well, he was…..He has enough money to pay for me to go to school. It always pleased him to know he could take care of me without needing any one else’s help.”
“Bette, you do have options. But I’m going to be honest”
A sigh escaped the freshman’s lungs. That honesty part didn’t sound so good. “Please, tell me the truth.”
“It’s so late in the year that most of our scholarship funds have been allocated. But we can always try. Maybe we’ll find an opening.”

Yes!!!! Maxine is saving the day!!!! Post soon please!!!!
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
