To the Moon and Back – chapter 30
Bette blushed. “Thank you. The pleasure is all mine Mrs. Kennard.”
“Please call me Cathy. Hang on let me go get Christopher to help with the bags.” She walked back into the house, but could still be heard calling for her son. “Christopher! Go help you sister! And don’t hit on her friend!”
Tina looked at Bette and smiled. “That wasn’t so bad was it?”
“It’s only just begun,” Bette said under her breath as Tina’s brother came walking outside. He was the male version of Tina with blonde hair, brown eyes, and a perfect body.
He hugged Tina before turning to Bette and subtly eyeing her from head to toe. “Hi I’m Chris.”
“Bette. Nice to meet you.”
He picked up their bags and led them inside. Bette was in awe at how spacious the house was. All of her life she lived in apartments where having company over was a hassle because of the small spaces, but this house could easily fit throngs of people with out a problem. While she was admiring the colonial house, Tina was getting reacquainted with her family. Tina tugged on Bette’s sleeve to get her attention so she could be introduced.
Bette was feeling overwhelmed by meeting all these cousins, aunts and uncles. Her head was pounding and she felt that it was going to explode if she didn’t sit down and take a rest. All of this was so overwhelming to her. She had never been serious enough with a woman to meet their family and spend the holidays with them. As she sat on the couch, Tina’s brother came and sat down next to her.
“Cocktail?”
Bette took a hold of the glass that he was offering her. “Thank you.”
“It looked like you needed it, but I don’t know if you should be having it. You don’t look 21 to me.”
‘Is this guy for real?’ Bette thought. He’s already being flirtatious. Men gave up hitting on her years ago, but her reputation must not have reached the suburban town in North Carolina. “I’m definitely old enough.”
“Could have fooled me.” He was intently staring at her. “So Bette, tell me more about yourself. What do you do for a living? How do you know my sister?”

+There is a boss in every family. Mrs Kennard iis itWith Tina Bette will be very protect. So The Kennard family better watch it. ,Thanks so much for the flashback.
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.
