The Roommates: Chapter Nine
However, Melvin didnt care that Kit had been able to make something of her life. He only cared that she had failed him and for that he believed she must be denied his love. No matter how successful she would ever become, Melvin would always resent her for disobeying his wishes and in his eyes, she was really no longer his daughter.
Bette did not want to be a repeat of Kit Porter. She couldnt take living without Melvins love. Though conditional and somewhat self-deprecating, Melvins love was all she could count on. Her mother had walked out of her life. She couldnt bear it if Melvin did the same. At least Kit still had her mother; she and Bette were half-sisters. Kit still had someone to love her unconditionally and without caution. And so, Bette was left with Melvin. His conditional love was the only real love she had.
Until she met Tina. Tina had seen her at her worst and still shed seen fit to love Bette. When Tina had held Bette in her arms and told her that she was home, Bette truly did feel at home. Though, shed felt at home with Tina long before that. Deciding to strip herself of that love, even for a little while, was excruciatingly painful for Bette. Even though she felt that her reasons were valid, her emotions were incapable of comprehending this logic.
Bette heard someone enter the restroom and swallowed her sobs as tears snaked their way down her cheeks. The comfort and love she had experienced last night was gone. Her safe place was gone. Bette was fine as long as she hadnt experienced unconditional love. But now that she had, it was hard to move forward. Her very unstable and very shaky foundation had been leveled.
In the back of her mind, she also feared that Tina would come to her senses and realize that Eric really was the one she wanted to be with. She hated to admit it, but she knew it was a real possibility. And though she knew that truly losing Tina would crush her, she had to let her go. When her mom walked out, Bette swore that she would never be unfaithful to anyone. She swore she would never cause someone as much pain as her mom had caused both her and her father. She had to give her and Tina this time apart. If she didnt, she knew she would hate herself in the long run.
When she was certain that she would no longer vomit, Bette walked to the bank of sinks and washed her hands and face and rinsed out her mouth. She made her way back to Italian and when it was over, she hurried home to call Sidney and pack a duffle bag before Tina returned.
