Alice stood. “Bette, I don’t like what she’s done. But even I can see that – – -,” she began.
“No! No! I am tired. This is too much. The women I chose just can’t seem to help themselves.”
Alice replied, “Tina’s not Sidney. She didn’t do this to hurt you, Bette. Sometimes – – -.”
“Just fucking stop! It’s always the same. My wife or my girlfriend does something that upsets me, and you jump in to defend them. When do you stand up for me?” asked Bette.
“Are you serious? I always defend you!”
Bette turned to Tina, her eyes blazing with fury. “Keep your phones and your security dogs and whatever else you thought you needed to keep me around. You don’t need them anymore. I’m not a threat. I will never…ever…be with you. Never!”
Tina felt dizzy, her heart was hurting. “You don’t mean that. You’re just angry.”
“No, for the first time in a long time, I’m just thinking clearly.” She opened the door and stepped outside.
“Where are you going?” asked Tina.
“Out! To get high or drunk. Maybe fuck someone I meet out in a club. I don’t know. Anywhere but here.”
Tina pleaded with her. “Don’t do this! I have done everything I can think of to keep us together!”
Bette’s back was to her, her head hanging, her shoulders shaking with sobs. Images of her prior pasts merged in her mind. She saw the beauty of her Tina’s smile. The Tina Kennard that she’d been ripped away from in 2005. How could she ever think they’d be the same? This wasn’t the same woman. She couldn’t be the same woman. Everything was different. It felt like her mind was coming apart at the seams.
“I was so stupid. I loved you. But it wasn’t even you. It wasn’t you. My Tina isn’t even here,” she said.
“Bette!”
The brunette turned around. She was angry and hurt, but more than that she hated how vulnerable she was. Hated how stupid she had been to believe that finding Tina in this reality would be enough to sate her wounded spirit.
“Save it! Leave me alone. I loved you. You lied to me. Over and over you lied to me. And you fucked him. You fucked him! I can’t be with you!”
She moved quickly to the blue coupe and slid in behind the wheel.
Tina raced to the car, but Bette was gone before she could reach her.

i would lwave you a reply but for some reason this site wont let. sorry
Oh my, what…? Major setback. Didn’t quite expect such an extreme reaction. I guess that was 19-year-old Bette, still only able to see things in black and white. Life’s not that simple.
But this is probably one reason why it was the right decision for Tina not to tell her earlier. Nevertheless I hope that Bette stops herself from consuming or fu**ing around just to get even with Tina somehow.
As for Tina, please let her stay true to her plan. It has to be done, whatever is on her mind for Henry.
It’s a long, hard journey. How long has it been going on since they met in 2019? As much as I like T + B together, better sooner than later, Tina’s plan needs some realistic time to work – even in shortened fanfic reality.
Sigh. Not a very positive start of the week. Real storm outside the window and an emotional inside my heart. But you wrote a great chapter, MTS, drama queen of the week.
Please post again soon.
Sorry, but i think i get tired from this absolutely immature Bette and from this rollercoaster.
Wow! Storm Ciara raging outside and this here!
Much more to cope with than I expected!
Await the next Chapter
SG
I feel like Tina went too far this time. Her actions seem a bit contradictory. If she’s been moving her assets then why does she need to be intimate with Henry. She could perhaps just say she’s busy or say she is willing to talk. When I look from Bette’s POV I see Tina telling her the truth in bits and pieces. Just when Bette gets comfortable with the truth bam she is told that’s actually not the whole truth. So I understand where Bette is coming from. I don’t know how the story will unfold further..seems difficult. Maybe Bette will wake up in her earlier reality again? Thanks MTS!
Omg she slept with him.. ………. wow ok. I think she could have left him with out that he seemed to be ok with divorcing with out all this extra show shes putting on. She moved her money I dont see why she would do that to Bette in front of all her family… not sure I know this Tina either.
WTF…? Tina couldn’t really believe that Bette would be ok with her sleeping with Henry. And then to tell Bette in front of Alice and Tasha – I am with Bette I also do not know this Tina and what the hell she is playing at.
I really do understand Bette’s reaction to this revelation of Tina. Not sure how you are going to fix this because whatever Tina’s reasons I can’t think of anything that could justify her betrayal of their relationship. Not sure how you are going to fix this. Because at the moment I don’t want Bette to be together with Tina.
And I also don’t understand Alice’s reaction either, she just should have waited for Bette’s decision and then she should have supported Bette, instead of taking Tina’s side and letting Bette storm out of her own home.
Hopefully Bette’s not going to seek comfort in drugs and alcohol but instead choses to reach out to Kit or even Patricia.
Looking forward to your next post.
I love the mix of comments. Some think Bette overreacted. Others think Tina is just completely wrong. I struggled with both sides of this when I was writing it. I kept asking myself, what’s realistic? What would Tina do? How would Bette respond?
What’s at stake?
This is a lot of stress for both of them. Fortunately for me, I do know how it turns out. LOL. More to come.
I’ve loved the initial plot of this story, and ???? at the intrigue of Bette having been thrust into the future. Loved Bette’s humorous realization and her coming to terms with the 34-yr old Bette!
But suffering sachatash, gee golly bums, Tina and her lies have got my knickers in a big wad!!! Don’t care what her plan is, her “ACTIONS” toward Bette have been a crock of shit! ????. She had to sleep with Henry and convince him that she wanted to re-ignite their love??? What the F kind of images did she think was planted in Bette’s soul having to visualize that?!!! Cruel plan.
Tina has been lying and sleeping round the whole time she’s been married to Henry!! They have an “open” marriage and we know that was Tina’s idea, right?
Bette has sold out to getting better emotionally, physically and in a sense, spiriualy and thankfully Kit & her son have been a saving grace for her. Totally with Bette, whether she’s “immature” or not, how is she suppose to BELIEVE anything Tina “says”???????????????????????????. Damn! Bette may as well have stayed with Sidney.
Far’s I’m concerned, whatever Bette does, she does????????♀️????????♀️
