    Vignettes: Chapter 16

    I guess Ill start from the beginning. Bette began.

    The beginning of the end? Shane asked, settling in.

    Bette nodded, taking a deep breath.

    ***

    Bette parked her car outside Tinas apartment and rested her head on the steering wheel. She closed her eyes and tried to steady her racing heart. Her palms were sweaty and her underarms were rapidly dampening. Considering starting the engine and driving away, she glanced out the window and felt like a foreigner, lost in a different country that she knew nothing about. Why did I agree to dinner at her place instead of a public restaurant?

    Slowly climbing out of the car, she made her way to the front entrance where Tina buzzed her in. With each step, Bettes legs turned to jello. She felt ridiculous for being so nervous about a harmless dinner, but this was starting over for them. They had agreed to give it one last shot if they could.

    Bette knocked on the door and Tina yelled from inside, Come on in, its open!

    Letting herself in, Bette was flooded with smells of Tinas cooking. Memories overwhelmed her of their old home. Bette felt like she was coming home after work when Tina had beat her home and started dinner. Seeing Tina move gracefully through the kitchen, tears threatened her eyes. She brushed them aside and closed the door.

    Hey Tina. Hows it going?

    Fine, dinners almost ready. Want to pour the wine? Tina handed Bette the glasses and bottle, directing her to the already set table.

    The meal was good but the mood was tense and the conversation was shallow. Both parties tried to break the ice but nothing worked.

    Im glad were doing this. Bette said as she smiled at Tina.

    Me too. Tina answered back but avoided Bettes eyes.

    T? Is everything alright? Bette finally asked.

    Im fine.

    Please… tell me the truth.

    Tina looked up at Bette for one of the first times during the meal. I dont know if I can do this.

    What? Dinner?

    You know what I mean.

    Tina, I dont know what more I can do to prove to you Im serious about us… about how much I love you and only you.

    4. As fun as it may be for you to read what we are thinking…I can promise you that it is an absolute treat to be able to read what you are thinking!! This story is heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. I love the way you write…although, I always feel I have to cradle my heart in my hands with each new chapter. Thank you so much for your thoughts.

    5. this story is just wonderful — my romantic heart just breaks — you depict so perfectly how we can get in our own way — really well done….thanks

    6. Your story is so melancholy in a way – it’s as if B&T cannot answer the question of whether their love is worth fighting for and if so who will open the door? You write beautifully as if you are trying to discover something rather than you have something you are certain of. Thanks so much for spinning this story.

    7. Superb. Yet again you have crafted a genuine and moving chapter that continues to tempt us to believe that Bette and Tina will be together again then taunt us as their pettiness gets in the way. Just like life.
      Such an awesome tale.
      Awaiting the next installment with much excitment and trepidation.
