“Do you still….still love him at all?” asked Bette.
Janice sighed, an answer to Bette’s question flitting around her mind, touring around the tired synapses in her brain. “I uh…I don’t know. I’m still so angry with him. So angry with myself for being sucked into his path of destruction. I guess I do love him in a way. I love him for giving me you.”
Bette smiled softly, her dark brown eyes misty. “He hates me now.”
“No, he doesn’t hate you, Bette. He hates losing. And he feels like he’s losing control of you. Your father can’t separate controlling you and loving you. That’s why he’s acting the way he is.”
Bette looked away. “It sure feels like he hates me.”
Janice sighed. “Hopefully he’ll soften up.”
The bronze young woman gave her mother a knowing glance.
The older woman smiled. “Well, we can hope can’t we?” she said.
Bette smiled softly. The haze of sleeplessness and the hectic nature of their family day had chipped away at her expertly designed emotional wall. And before she realized it, Bette uttered quietly, “I missed you.”
Three little words but such a depth of meaning. And Janice understand that depth. Understood the strain her absence had caused.
Janice’s eyes watered and she placed her hand on top her daughter’s. “I’m sorry.”
Dark curls nodded. “I know. I didn’t mean for you to keep apologizing. I just wanted you to know that I really did miss you. I’m glad I get to spend this time with you.”
Janice smiled and closed her eyes tightly, fighting against the water that threatened to spill from beneath her lids. “Thank you. That means so much to me.”
Just then, the gate attendant’s chipper voice started speaking to them over the intercom. Both mother and daughter glanced over to the small brown-haired woman with the plastic smile and company-issued blue and white suited uniform. They learned that their flight would begin boarding in “Just a few moments”.
Janice placed a motherly hand on her daughter’s shoulder and said, “Bette, I’ll be right back. I’m gonna go use the restroom one last time before we board. Did you need to go?”

Oh, so good to see your posting. Welcome back!
Hello MTS, I have just finished consuming your latest adorable adventure. I feel like an addict ready for my next fix. Your words haunt me as the bonds between mother and child are examined. Janice is only now starting to appreciate the joy that her daugther can bring to her life. While Tracy knows that something is different about her child. Tina isn’t helping matters with her secrecy and odd behavior. The mirroring of these events is awesome. As always, MTS, you provoke and makes us all think. Brilliant. Just loving it all. many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
Hello Miss MTS… so glad to see you back on the road with this story… Looking forward to the rollercoaster you’ll be creating with this FF.
It’s fantastic. Really great. I hope they arent actually apart for 3 months. That would be terrible. pps.
Tina’s mom is so close to guessing what is going on with Tina. It is nice to see that Bette is getting the royal treatment. Before Bette was all stressed but now she is more relaxed and now it is Tina’s turn to stress out.
well for people who really dont even know that lezzies exist, there minds cant even go there. its funny when they figure it out tho. thx, glad your back.
I’m so glad to see you post! You have no idea how much I love the two other stories that preceded this one. Thanks for taking the time to continue with this series. ;D
U have been MISSED!!!!
I smell trouble in the form of Tracy Kennard. How cute is “Tiny Tina and Baby Bette” huh. I’m so glad you’re giving this a 3rd dimension. Lookin forward for more!
I was only thinking yesterday how much I missed this story, was even going to PM but then thought ‘no pressure’ and here u r. That was ssssoooooooo intense & I hate them being apart as much as they do. I wanna say PPS but no pressure. Thx.
I’m happy you see you back. I loved the others two stories of Roommate. Which way you may go with B&T. I hope without much drama and a happy end for this two as a happy married couple.
Hey MTS, It is so wonderful and a real treat to have you back on the site and posting more of this magnificent melodrama. I just adore everything you have wriiten. Can’t wait to immerse myself in your delicious drama. I’ll be back when I’ve read this new chapter. SO excited that I can hardly make sense of the words. Yippee!!! Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
Such a amazing suprise to see you posted again! Great chapter. I think it’s safe to say that a lot of us have been in this situation with their mother much like Tina is right now. I can only wish her the best. Please post again soon.
yeah your back!! been waiting for this story….will tina tell her mom? i think her mom will figure it out soon enough… mom always seem to know these things..:)
I am glad you brought us the next phase of the story. I am liking that Bette and Janice have this time to bond and get to know one another. Tracy is being a rude unsupportive bitch to Tina and then wonders why Tina won’t talk to her. Maybe if she treated her with a little respect Tina wouldn’t feel so terrified of being herself. Fantastic writing!
Hey, u r back wt another “season”. This is great!! Thanks for coming back n pls keep posting as best u can.
Glad to see this story back! Thanks!
wow, you’re back!!!!! i’m so excited about this next part…i hope tina’s parents will understand when the truth will come out
welcome back ! its nice to read your story again i missed this one thanks for posting and taking the time to write again
That was great and love it!
