    What is love? – Chapter 23

    “Oh, well, I thought she was there every night.”

    “Well, she is, but I haven’t asked her yet to move in full time.”

    “When are you going to do that?”

    “I thoughttoday.”

    “Well, it’s high time you made an honest woman of her. I know she will be tremendously happy. She’s crazy about you.”

    Bette was pleased that Kit finally got it. That this was a very big deal. And Bette was nervous. It meant a commitment, at least partially. And everyone knew Bette Porter didn’t do commitments. But Bette thought she was ready.

    ==================== The Gallery Office Carolyn stopped typing a document when she noticed Bette leaning on the door frame of her office. As she saved the partially completed document, she thought that this was a habit of Bette’s. When she wanted to talk about something personal, she stood in the doorway, leaning on the frame until Carolyn acknowledged her. Carolyn had to take the verbal first step in the conversation to come.

    “Something on your mind, Bette?” Carolyn said. That’s what she always said.

    And always, with a look of relief and gratitude, Bette moved from the door to a chair in front of Carolyn’s desk. She always leaned forward with her elbows on her knees and her hands clasped and Carolyn waited patiently. She had children as old as Bette and knew that sometimes you simply had to wait for them to talk.

    “I’m going to ask Tina to live with me—full time.”

    “I thought she was living with you all the time,” Carolyn commented, puzzled.

    If Bette had known anything about baseball, she would have realized that she was 0 for 3. Nobody seemed to understand that she and Tina had nothing official, yet. That Tina was justwell, she was there all the time, but it was nothing official.

    “Well, I haven’t asked her yet.” Bette explained.

    “Oh,” said Carolyn, beginning to understand. “Is that what the flowers are for?” She had seen Bette go into her office earlier with a dozen red roses.

    “Yesyes,” Bette smiled. Finally, someone had gotten it! “I’m asking her tonight.” Bette took a deep breath.

    “I know Tina will be very happy.” said Carolyn

    “Well,” Bette said. Carolyn recognized this as the signal that the personal conversation was over. Bette unclasped her hands, patted the tops of her legs twice, and stood up.

    6. Not sure if I ever commented, but have always looked for this story. Poor Bette, she is like Dana in this story, the last to know. I liked your joke where Bette wants to be the one to propose. Maybe she should have done it right then and there before the others thought they are already “married”.Great story. Thanks for sharing your time and creativity.
