    Angelica’s Fifth Fourth ~ Chapter Six

     

    “Mama, down.”

     

    Tina looked at her daughter sternly and did not react.

     

    “Mama!” Angelica whined in frustration, but Tina did not move.  The little girl tried to squirm down but her mother held her tighter.

     

    “Mama B?” Angelica asked her other mother to interpose.

     

    “Angelica, you forgot something.”

     

    Their daughter’s face scrunched as she thought until she got her answer. 

     

    Angelica asked “Mama, down please,” and Tina complied.

     

    Once on the ground, the little girl stretched her arms way up in the air and then stretched forward, reaching her hands towards the floor.  When she righted herself, she stretched first to the right and then to the left.

     

    “Mama!”  she called impatiently.

     

    Bette smiled apologetically at Tina, “Okay, Boo.”

     

    Bette then began mimicking her daughter’s actions as the little girl counted out how long each position was to be held.

     

    The people on line in front and in back of the family were annoyed at first as they got out of the way, but the absurdity of the performance soon had them smiling.

     

    “What are you two doing?’ Tina asked, though she had an inkling.

     

    Angelica answered, “Stretching so we can catch a ring.”

     

    Tina groaned.

     

    @@@@@@@

     

    The wait on line was much longer than they had expected, so they only had time for one ride on the carousel.

     

    Angelica, belted in as required, rode the horse she had chosen while on line and Bette stood protectively at her side as Melvin had for her so many years earlier.  At Bette’s instruction, on their first circle Angelica studied the positions of the wooden arms that held the precious rings.  On their second circle, Angelica made her first attempt under Bette’s coaching,. It was unsuccessful but Bette peppered her talk with “that was close”  and “you targeted well’ and “we’ll keep trying.”  Tina even added a few “go, Angelica’s.”  The little girl became disheartened when she missed for the fourth time, but on the fifth circle, Bette held Angelica securely so that she could lift herself further from the horse, and she snagged a ring.  Her mothers cheered almost as loud and as long as if she had won an Olympic medal.

    1. Excellent chapter! I spent too much of my youth playing all those arcade games on too many beach boardwalks in the summer and your descriptions are perfect. Thanks for this story!

    2. I was grinning the entire time I read this. A parent reliving happy memories from childhood and sharing them with her child and wife. The other parent seeing something new, even after 12 years. Angie’s first experience of this type and having both her moms there. This reminds me of vacations at a small family beach in NC and going to Myrtle Beach for a night of rides and the arcade. Thanks for a great read tonight, Spumoni!

    3. This chapter was so much fun to read, as well as bringing back memories of going to the county fair. Always have had an inner ear problem and could not ride, would be deathly ill. But all the other things were there and we had a lot of fun. Enjoyed this chapter. PPS

    4. I wonder how much money they spent on the games. Chucky E. Cheese has games like that and I have had the pleasure of joining my nieces and nephews. I have never been to a beach boardwalk like that but I have been to a number of county fairs that evoke the same feeling. I have a mole that is driving me insane. Will you please send Angelica my way. She can whack the mole all she wants and I will not feel real bad for it.

    5. Now Spumoni, don’t make me have to call the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Moles! while I know arcades and such are primarily for children, adults can have fun too, and it was nice to see Bette enjoying playing the games she had played as a child. I kind of wished they would have let her just enjoy herself a bit…instead of having to always make it about Angelica. I think it would have been so cool to have been able to do those kinds of things, I too had a boring childhood! I have to tell you, Spumoni, esp in this chapter, there are moments when I forget I am reading an L word fic, I am wafted away to place and time…Your writing is that good. Hey I am offering my services ans an excellent proofreader if it would deliver you from being ensnared in endless rewriting!! Anytime.

    6. i remember those horse carousels, they were the best. that was a really fun experience for ange and nice that bette can still surprize tina. great writing.
