Through The Years Chapter 1
”You will not speak of that name in this house! Is that understood?” Melvin asked sternly as he did not want to hear his oldest daughter’s name mentioned after the two had a falling out and he kicked her out of his home six months ago.
”Yes Daddy” Bette said in defeat pushing herself away from the table and running her hands through her thick dark curly hair as she stood up.
”Now that we have an understanding. Go get your book bag and let’s head to your new school. This is the best school in New York so don’t disappoint me or your mother Elizabeth. Because of your heritage you will need to try harder and work harder as they will look down on you being the only half African American half Caucasian child at a previously all white private girls school.” Melvin said as he put his hand on Bette’s shoulder. ”Do not disappoint us like your sister has”
”I won’t Daddy” Bette replied and stepped away from her father to grab her book bag and walked out the door with Melvin following behind.
After riding the whole 20 minutes to the school in silence Melvin pulled into the school drop off and parked.
Bette turned to look at her father who was staring ahead with the engine running.
”Daddy? Are you going to come in with me and help me find where to go?”
Melvin shook his head then turned to look at Bette.
”No. You need to do this on your own. You need to show people that you don’t have to have someone hold your hand. You are a smart intelligent girl Elizabeth. Your Momma and I raised you to be independent and not to rely on anyone. Including us.” Melvin responded almost coldly breaking Bette’s heart as she felt a tear form in her eye and quickly hurried out of the car.
After hearing her father drive off she turned to see him disappear down the street. Letting out a sigh she turned and stared at the entrance of Wilford Academy and began slowly walking toward the double doors adjusting her bookmark straps as she made her way closer. ”I don’t know what I’m supposed to do” Bette mumbled as she heard voices behind her getting closer. She stopped and turned to see three girls walk into the building with one of them turning to smile at her as she walked by.

Well let be the first to say welcome my friend as you take on this new journey. Going from reader to writer can be a little intimidating with all these brilliant authors on here but i see you fit along quite well. It always good to see more tibette fans come out as writers. Just read your chapter and i see it will be interesting. Keep up the good work and post soon.
Welcome and you had a great start! Funny at one point but a good start! Thanks and upwards we go! PPS
Good start :) Thank you :)
Look forward to more, and longer :)
See the story is to be long so please post regularly :)
Welcome! I admire you for coming out as a writer, we can’t have enough of them.
The story has captured my interest and i will follow it through the end.
Ohh i’m looking forward to more of this story, thank you for posting.
Welcome and as TN1 said from reader to writer can be intimidating. Just as I did it not so long ago you also took the dip. Congrats and keep on posting……the readers are eager to read the sequel!
Nice start and as the rest……..post soon……
Enjoyed it, looking forward to more chapters. Thanks
ok. I am digging in for the haul with everyone else. I will say this is a great start to a new beginning. following this journey thru the early years to see both tina and bette’s personalities develop and their “bond” grow stronger together. I “feel’s” tina will be bette’s protector, muse and soul mate for life.
interesting to also note as to whether bette’s father will finally “invest” into anything Kennard now that bette’s better and best friend is tina Kennard. can’t wait to see how that will play out, and I cannot wait for someone or anyone to tell Melvin to step back and step off of HIS expectations of bette and her future. living vicariously through others….NOT a really bright idea.
I look forward to continuing chapters of this tale. thank you for taking the time to share this with us. #GOTEAMTINAANDBETTE!!
