    Uncharted Territory

    ‘I know I can.’ She whispers as she intertwines her fingers with mine. If only I could calm the look of absolute desperation in those dark brown orbs when they once again rest on Renee. ‘I wish we could do something, I wish…’

    ‘Come with me.’ Without letting go of her hand I lead her to my apartment, where the air is still thick but at least less smothering. When she is angry, nervous or sad, she always paces the room, its her way to let all that bottled up fire in her stoke up, her way of putting up a fight. Today there is none of that, she sits down on the couch and draws me close, laying her forehead against my stomach.

    Broken by the heavy burden we carry, my cautiousness when it comes to touching her disappears and I let my hands run through her unruly curls, eliciting a whimper of saddened relief. Her hands grasp a fistful of my woolen sweater and tuck it somewhat fierce, bending me toward her more. ‘Kiss me.’ She whispers hopelessly against my lips. And god knows how much I would love to grant her wish, anything to give her what she needs and what I need too to be honest. But if I surrender there won’t be any talking once again.

    ‘Talk to me.’ I plead against her lips, wishing silently that my plea will be met this time. In the last year we were together there was always some reason to deviate from talking. Not now I’m busy. Later, I’m tired. The opening is just around the corner. Can we for once just say nothing. I don’t want to fight. Leave me alone. I have to go. Just lay with me. Maybe this weekend. ‘Please…’ Reluctantly her fingers loosen their grip and she buries her head in her hands. My throat dry, my heart wild, I sit down on the coffee table in front of her, fearing rejection, hoping for the opposite.

    I suck in all the air I can muster and hold my breath when she looks up at me, opening and closing her mouth a few times before she speaks. ‘I should have come earlier.’

    ‘You came as soon as you could.’

    1. If these memories are a true representation of what happened, then they should never have married…. this was not their life in Paris but becomes their life in Los Angeles….. no communication…. Bette has no idea what she is doing in buisness if she wants to fire the accountant. That is like shooting the messenger…. it does nothing to correct the underlying causes of the problem…. Is Tina listening to Bette or is she just planning nice weekends and trip away from Los Angeles?

      This is a case of that which you fear the most ultimately becomes a self-fulling prophecy….

      Thanks for the chapter….

    2. Good chapter, my heart breaks for them, Renee dying soon, their friend who means so much for them.

      How is it possible they ended up like this? Bette a workaholic and avoid to talk. Was it a issue that Tina earned more with her job before they moved to LA? Was Bette trying to prove she was able to provide for Tina and a baby?

      I am so curious how they got in this situation where Tina in the end cheated. What ever the reason, cheating is a no go for me.

      But there seems to be a little progress.

      Look forward to the next chapter.
