The Roommates – 2nd Dimension: Chapter 59
“What – – what’s wrong?” she asked.
“After you left, they assigned Courtney to another tutor. Nice young man. A junior minister at his church. He’s about your age.” Beverly paused and when she spoke again, Tina could practically see the tears rolling down the distraught mother’s smooth brown face.
“That bastard molested my child. He was supposed to help her. Supposed to take care of her. And he molested her.”
An “Oh my God,” slipped from Tina’s lips.
“He would take her into the bathroom and – – – I can’t even think about it. I can’t even think about it. She kept saying she didn’t like him. She kept asking for you to come back. I thought she was just being stubborn. I thought I was doing the right thing to protect her.”
Now there were tears in Tina’s eyes. “No. Not Courtney,” she whispered.
“Since we found out, she won’t eat, she barely sleeps, she won’t talk to me about it. She won’t talk to the counselors or the detectives. She only wants to talk to you. She only wants to speak to you. She keeps asking for ‘Miss Tina’. I didn’t know what else to do.”
Beverly hadn’t even asked, but Tina’s mind was already there. “I’ll be there. I’m on my way. Where do you live?”
Courtney’s mother was so overwhelmed, she could barely speak. Sobs shook her shoulders. She gave her address and Tina wrote it down. When their call disconnected, Tina pulled out her cell phone & called Bette. She knew that her girlfriend would be in the meeting and she wanted to let her know that she’d just encountered a new emergency.
The phone rang a few times before it clicked over to voicemail.
“Bette. Hey Babe. Please don’t be upset with me. I want so much to be there right now, but an emergency just came up. It’s Courtney. Her mom just called me and I really need to go see her. I’ll tell you more later. I love you so much Bette and I know you’re gonna win. I love you, Babe. Oh….and I need to borrow your car. I hope you don’t mind. Please call me as soon as you get this message. I love you. Bye.”
Tina pulled a map to Courtney’s house off of the internet before grabbing Bette’s car keys and heading out the door.
“You did great,” she whispered to Bette.
Bette grinned shyly. “Thank you,” she whispered in return.
As her competition made her way to the podium and began to speak, Bette’s dark brown eyes sized up her opposition before they stole a quick glance at the caller id.
She sighed and disappointment slid from her sad dark eyes and siphoned the confidence from her now drooping shoulders.
‘It’s Tina’, she thought. ‘I wonder what excuse she has now. I haven’t asked her for much. Just to be here for me. One time. That’s it. I knew she wasn’t going to make. I knew it.’

uh oh Tina better get to Bette
I’m sure the girls will work it out once Bette hears what happened to poor Courtney.
NO BETTE!!! don’t do anything stupid with Sydney!
Bette must to listen her voicemail before do anything stupid, pls pretty pls don’t let her do anything stupid.
Dammit to hell. Tina, that call could’ve waited. Seriously. And Sydney just needs to keep her hands to herself. She hasn’t done anything but think and we can read her thoughts so that’s bad enough.
Jumping to conclusions is really not the best thing to do in situations like this. Bette should at least listen before she writes Tina off.I ope they talk soon and Bette doesn’t fall for the flatery from her ex. PPS
I’d consider ths an R rating due to the Courtney storyline.
I am still feeling a Sydney and Bette hook-up. I am sorry about the little girl but Tina could have atleast made it to the meeting on-time. Aside from the emergency Tina has not been there a 100% for Bette and I understand that she is not there yet. However she needs to voice her concerns to Bette and let her know what’s up, atleast then Bette would have a better understanding about it. Post soon! p.s- Please let us know when we can get your novel when it comes out. You are like one of the best writers on the site!
i trust you MTS…i hope B&T will talk to each other before anythig happens
Gosh, what do u say. Definitely want Tina to be there for the baby, but her other Baby needed her to. However, I know Bette will understand when Tina tell her because she knows how much Tina loved the little girl and she being compassionate herself, but she may not forget or forgive so easily after another dissappointing disappearing act from Tina. Thanks for another good and quick POST. Please Post Soon!!!!
I hope that Bette will soon listen to Tina’s message and that they can clear up the mess. I can understand Bette’s disappointment with Tina not being there, but in this case a child’s life will always come first in my book.
Tina needs to be real careful here in dealing w/ Bette. Granted she did have an emergency, but if that phone hadn’t vrang she still would’ve been late for the meeting and Bette’s speech. I’m sure Sudney, Landon and another girl who is completely out of the closet is going to start looking better and more appealing to Bette (and I can’t say that I blame her). i see a rocky road ahead for the ladies, but hopefully they can make it through the hard times and come out on top and TOGETHER! PPS! And that poor little girl she is going to have some serious issues thanks to her mommies bigotry. Too bad something so awful had to happend for her mom to see the err of her ways.
i have learnt from past bitter experience that one should support one’s own 1st; imo Tina should have gone to Bette 1st…it’s not as if the nasty ‘just’ happened to Courtney…still into the story pps
please don’t let bette fall back into sydney’s arms… i also believe once she hears what happened she will know tina had to sdo what she did
I didn’t see that one coming.I too hope that Bette doesn’t hook up with Sidney out of feeling hurt.When one half of a couple isn’t out it can cause trouble.Tina will come around.MTS I trust you with our babies.
Hey MTS, I am still astounded by your brillance. This drama has covered so much ground. It looks like Sidney is ready to pounce on Bette and given Tina’s apparent abandonment I see this escalating quickly. Unfortunately Bette needs to trust Tina and speak to her directly. Listening to her voicemail will be a great start as I am sure that Bette would want Tina to go the the aid of an abused child. There is nothing worse in the world than a child suffering. And knowing that this is by the hand of another person makes it all the more repugnant. Just need Bette to appreciate why she loves Tina and not focus on her selfishness. Can’t wait to see how this all plays out. Many thanks for continuing to push the boundaries. Your Loyal Fan.
hopefully shell listen before shes just stupid. thanks.
God, life is all about good timing isn’t it. B&T never seem to have that going for them in this story. hope they can get in sync somehow or I’m afraid disaster looms! PPS
Poor them and hope Bette not do anything stupid with Sydney!
