PREVIOUSLY
They decided that they should just eat at the airport because they were already getting short on time. Everything they did seem like dj vu because they just went through the same routine on the way back from Paris, this time they were just lacking their friends. They boarded the plane and took their seats.
After take off Tina turned to Bette and was wearing the same smile she had on earlier.
Bette couldn’t help but smile in return. “What?”
“I was just thinking.”
“About?”
Tina was playing with Bette’s hair. “About the last time we took this flight together. Do you remember that trip?”
Bette closed her eyes and said, “Oh God, how could I forget?”
*************************************************************************
December 23, 1997
Christmas as the Kennard household was a big deal. It was the only time of the year that the entire family would gather together. This year was no different, except that Tina wouldn’t be bringing Eric. Tina had been dating Bette for 4 months when the time came to head to North Carolina. Since Bette’s family didn’t do anything on Christmas, Tina invited her to come with rather than have her sit at home alone and eat a Hot Pocket for dinner. Bette was thrilled that Tina invited her but she was worried about what Tina’s parents would think.
As they stood outside the door, Bette’s fears were in full gear. “T, are you sure this is ok? I don’t want to be the unexpected and unwelcome guest. I still have time to run back to the cab.”
“Babe, for the last time everything will be fine. They always had room for Eric, so now they have room for you.”
Bette was still scared but tried to put that behind her as Mrs. Kennard opened the door to greet her daughter.
“Christina! Look at you, even more stunning than last year!” The two women kissed and embraced, trying to make up for the time apart over the last year. “Who do we have here?”
Tina looked at Bette and then back to her mom. “This is my friend Bette Porter. I didn’t want her to be alone for Christmas so I brought her along.”
“Oh my, now we have two beautiful women in the house! It’s a pleasure to meet you.” Mrs. Kennard shook Bette’s hand.

JB…what a flashback! It was bittersweet, because at first they were welcomed with open arms then they were condemned to hell for their love. Dang…what a Christmas. But it seems that Tina’s father was more willing to accept them than her mother and now her father’s dead. Hopefully, her family will now accept her and Bette. Thanks for posting…please continue.
