The Roommates: Chapter 20
The father and daughter finally arrived at a nice ranch-style house with a circular drive. As they exited the silver Lexus, Bette sighed deeply and steeled her nerves for this encounter.
She thought, Who the ***** is this woman? I am totally not up for this ***** today. This is the most stressful time of my life and he has to start dating. What the ***** is going on with my life these days? I feel like Im on candid camera or some *****.
As they walked to the door, Vivian made her way to greet them; her slender figure clothed in a red, skirt suit with matching red Marc Jacobs pumps. A broad smile was on her mahogany-colored face and her hair was pulled and tied up at the back, with a few loose strands curled and left dangling down the side of her face. As she got closer, the flowery scent of her perfume filled Bettes nostrils and aggravated her already pounding tension headache.
This is going to be a long day, she thought.
Melvin, its so good to see you again, said Vivian, embracing the tall brown-skinned man and planting a kiss on his cheek.
Likewise. Im glad we could make it. Melvin replied.
Vivian turned her dark brown eyes to Bettes. Her smile brightened as she said, And you must be Beth.
Bette smiled tightly. Its Bette., she replied.
Oh, yes. Bette. Well, Im pleased to finally meet you. Your fathers told me an awful lot about you., said Vivian.
Bette extended her slender hand, Nice to meet you too.
Vivian didnt return Bettes gesture. She pulled her into a hug that was way too tight and way too soon in their relationship. Bette loosely embraced this odiferous woman and prayed to whatever god that would listen to get her through this day with her sanity intact.
The trio made their way through Vivians ornately decorated home and out to her sun porch. The round, glass patio table was decorated with an arrangement of yellow and white roses and set with small, finger-sized sandwiches and glasses of water with lemon.
I feel like Ive walked into a taping of the Martha Stewart Show, thought Bette.

that’s unfortunate that Bette’s cousins treat her like that…makes me love my cousins all the more. tis ruff being of the mixxedness. Great chapter!
So glad you’re back, been eagerly awaiting this update! ;) Poor Bette, nothing seems to be going right for her…. or Tina for that matter! Can’t wait for the next one!! =0)
ohhh i love it. . glad your back i missed your story.. come on .. they need each other..:)
What a rollercoster ride B&T are in they really need accept what they feel for each other.
great story but I am with seven get B&T to work things out soon before the resentment turs nasty keep up the good work please post soon
Hey girl please continue….this is a great story thanks..
I feel Bette’s pain, but come on now. She’s not really being fair to Sidney who has shown her nothing but love and compassion. I know Bette’s not in love with her, rather is in love with Tina, and is just using Sidney to get what she’s not allowing herself to ask from Tina. Why can’t she just accept the love instead of allowing her unresolved feelings turn to resentment? Love the story and am so happy to find a new chapter from you.
I’m glad to see your update here. Tough times for Tina and Bette. Great update!
What a hard and crazy day for Bette. Well Bette need time to think about her relationship with Sidney and Tina, who would she choose and make her life better. Anyway glad to see you again and please post soon the next one. Thank you! Great chapter!
Love your story…it’s something new and refreshing…thank you and please do continue…can’t wait to see what happens next;-)
i liked your story though i dropped by here and there. thanks for your time and effort. i enjoyed it.
Awesome…pls continue
Happy to see this post but please let Bette wait for Tina don’t let her sleep with Sidney I like her but she is meant to be with Nette..Please post soon Thanks
I’m not sure Bette has the right to resent Tina while she is using Sydney. But then again as someone said here they are only 18. Great story and I always look forward to another chapter.
Sounds like Tina might need to drop out of school and figure her life out.
Bette needs support to continue with her education and life. Maybe dating isn’t in the cards for either one of them right now.
Thanks for posting another chapter.
Interesting… Should be tense time by finals. (Hopefully delightfully so.)
Wow extremely well written. I can understand Bette just wanting Tina to be there for her, its too bad that both of their lives are so hard right now. You explained it really well why Bette reached out to Sidney, but I do feel sorry for her actually because deep down she will always be second in Bette’s heart. However, amazing storytelling and character development and how they think. Great job.
god..where haf u been? love ur stories…post soon!
Bette needs to tell both Sydney and Tina what is really going on with her right now,please post soon.
