Bette’s House:
When Isabel heard a car pull up she knew immediately that Bette arrived. She ran outside and grabbed Bette in a big hug. “Mom, mom. You’re choking me,” said Bette “I’m sorry sweety. I just missed you,” said Isabel letting her go. “Thank you for picking her up girls.”
“You’re welcome Ms. P,” said Papi.
“Hey, Papi here’s your present,” said Bete handing Papi a box. When Papi opened it, it contained a PSP.
“Oh my gosh, thank you so much,” said Papi giving Bette a hug. After that Papi and Tina were walking to the car when Papi forgot to tell Bette something. “Oh, right. Bette I’ll come pick you up around 7 o’clock.” Before Bette could say anything her mother intervened:”Yeah, she’ll be ready.”
“Wow, that eager to get rid of me?” Bette asked her mother laughing.
“No, but you haven’t seen your friends in a while,” said Isabel trying to convince her to go. When they got inside Isabel and Bette were putting Bette’s stuff away.
“So how was New York?” Isabel asked Bette.
“Well, when I met up with Kirsten it became less boring. Dad worked all the time, I was basically there on my own.”
“I’m sorry sweetie,” said Isabel caressing Bette’s arm.
“No, it’s okay. A part of me knew that was going to happen,” said Bette sitting on the bed.
“How is Kirsten?” asked Isabel. “She’s great, even more now. She has a girlfriend, her name is Sarah,” said Bette getting something from her bag. “Wow, Kirsten with a girlfriend. Next I’ll hear that Papi has a girlfriend,” said Isabel laughing. “Here,” said Bette handing Isabel a present. “Oh, honey. You didn’t have to.”
“No, but I wanted too. I also have one for Emily,” said Bette watching her mother open the gift. Bette bought an ancient Greek vase. Since her mother was obsessed with ancient things.
“Oh, god. Bette thank you,” said Isabel putting an arm around Bette. The rest of the day Bette finished unpacking her stuff. And then by 6.30pm started getting ready.

 

When Papi arrived Bette got in her car and asked Papi:”So, were are we going?”
“It’s a surprise,” Papi said starting to drive.
“Were going to Shane’s house aren’t we?” asked Bette knowing the way to Shane’s house.
“How did you know?” asked Papi looking at Bette.
“This is the way to Shane’s house. I’ve been gone 13 days not 13 years Papi.”
“Oh, right of course,” said Papi with a big smile.
“What are you smiling about?” asked Bette not knowing that they threw a party for her.
