Bette looked at her watched and sighed. She rested her hands on the table as she waited for Tina to show up. Kit walked over to Bette and rested her hand on her shoulder.

You seem antsy, whats up baby sis? Bette looked up and smiled.

Tinas meeting me here, and we need to talk about our situation with Destiny. She shook her head. But I feel like theres something else on her mind.

Well lets see, youre dated the woman that you say was a monster, and youre flaunting her in front of Tina.

Im not flaunting her around Kit. I hardly see Tina unless it involves Destiny.

Okay, I could be wrong, but at least try to be friends. It would be nice to see you guys talking again on the regular.

Ill try Kit, but I cant give you any guarantees. Kit patted Bettes shoulder and walked away. Bette ran her fingers through her hair. She looked up and saw Tina rushing in.

Im sorry; I was trying to put Destiny down for her nap. Jordanas watching her right now. She took a seat at the table. I hope I didnt have you waiting.

Oh no, its fine. I wasnt waiting for long. Bette sat up straight and tapped her nails on the table. Tina cleared her throat and pushed her hair back.

I thought we could go fifty/fifty on custody. Ill get her on weekdays, and youll get on the weekends. Bette put her hand up.

Im not going with that. I dont want my child for only two days. I want to spend time with her as much as I can. This is ridiculous.

Alright, what do you have in mind?

Well switch off; you have for a few days and vice versa. I want to be in my babys life.

I think thatll work. Tina sighed. Would you have a problem if Garrett takes care of her?

She would have a man in her life, but theres a problem.

What is that Bette?

That the fact is Garrett is white, and Destiny is mixed. I just feel like when you two are out, theyll look at Destiny and think shes adopted. I dont want that for our child. I want her to know this is her family and that she belongs. Do you understand that?
