“And you would be telling me why? You know my position on the idea. I dislike you being a police officer and more so you being an artist.”
“Why Dad? Why would it be so bad if I were an artist? It’s respectable work. It’s creative. I don’t understand why you’re so opposed to it. You ask why I’m telling you and the reason is I am going to be in a show in October and I would like you to come to Spokane for the opening.”
“Thank you for the invitation but I don’t see that being possible Elizabeth. I wish you well and hope you do well in your show. When it doesn’t work out and you are in need of money, don’t call me. I will not throw good money away for such foolishness.”
“I don’t need your money Dad. Since I left college I’ve never asked you for money nor would I ever. My mother left me money when she died and if I need to, I will tap into that. I just thought that for once, you could think about supporting me emotionally in something that was important to me.
“Elizabeth, I have never understood you but I have always supported you. You insist on dating women when I could introduce you to many eligible young men. I just leave it alone. You want to be a police officer when you have the intelligence to one day take over my company…I haven’t insisted. My opinion matters not to you. Good luck. Tell Katherine hello.” The line was dead. He had hung up on me but that wasn’t surprising to me. The conversation had lasted longer than most of the ones that we had.
My father and I had always had a tumultuous relationship. He was right. He had never understood me and understood my mother even less. When she finally left him, it was the best thing that she could have done for herself. He treated her as he treated most, like property. I unfortunately I was stuck living with him after the separation. Mom’s money was all tied to his dealings and she couldn’t hire a good attorney. She just went with what he presented. I had visits with her and looked forward to those. After a couple of years, she had pulled herself up and landed on her feet. Unfortunately for him, when she landed on her feet, it was with a boyfriend who was an attorney.

GREAT STORIES!!!! took me two days to catch up on both and i am so glad i found them!!! i can’t wait for tomorrows posts!!!!
Well, howdoyoulikethat? Tina asked Bette out! Heehee! Love the honesty and straightforwardness. And, boyohboy, do you write fast! Guess you just had a teeny nap last night! :) Date chapter please!
LOL! I had to laugh as the fireworks crack and whistle in my neighborhood… totally identify with being too lazy to care! Love the story!!! PPS!!! SK/C
This story is so intriguing. I just love the narration b/c it’s down to earth, realistic convos and thinking. I appreciate your frequent posts.
AESOME… love how tina is very honest and forth coming with bette and so it bette with tina…can’t wait for their date!! :)PPS
NAG…you’ve done it again. Super update. At least in this story, Bette gets a family who loves her. That was good that Tina decided to tell Bette who she supped with…but technically she didin’t really owe Bette an explanation at this point in their relationship. Dying for the next chapter, as usual.
I’m addicted to this story! :D THANKS NewAgeGirl :p
I am an extremely happy camper due to reading the last two chapters. I love how Bette and Tina are taking things slowly. The fireworks were wild here. The entire beach was lit up for at least 2 hours. I was surprised because the cops let it go when fireworks are banned. But it was a spectular show.
We need more people like Bob and Mary in this world :)
wooooohooooo can’t wait for the date!!!Its good how they have started their relationship honest and straightforward with other.Bette now knows that Eric is in Tina’s life as a friend so she hasn’t really got to worry about why he is there. 5 hours on the phone that mut be one expensive phone bill lol. PPS thanks
I just caught up. Three Great Chapters!!! Bring on the DATE!!! Thanks
Go Tina Go! I am so glad she asked Bette for the date. I think it means she is ready to explore her feelings for women and particularly Bette. I am waiting on the edge of my seat for the evening she has planned! I hope it includes more hand holding and a kiss or two as well… :>)
Finally, now Bette neds to invite Tina to the show. They seem like a great match. Hope to read more soon I for one am following both of your stories so would be happy to see a chapter of WOO soon also.
and fast forward to the date! I cvan’t wait:)
Everyone needs a loving man in their life Bette has Bob also his wife Mary. Melvin is a big a&&. So glad Bette called Tina and Tima returned her call. So dinner the next night. thanks so much for posting.
Love this story and love both of your stories as you well know. Glad this chapter turned out as it did, in that Tina was honest about dinner with Eric and Bette receptive of the friendship. I thought she needed to tell her in person rather than the telephone. Obviously your B and T are so very different than some we’ve seen before. Happy they are going out on that date. And I will be so happy when we can read about it. They are so lovely together. melvin in this story is more of an a–hole than original and Bob is the dream stepfather for her. Good and loving man,just the kind of father she needs in her life. Can we please have the date chapter tomorrow, pretty please? lol PPS
Again well written, Tina first to draw (awesome). I like this version of tibette. Communication is key.
Yay! good for Tina! Let’s go!
date night at last…
Just caught up – two great chapters – I really like the detail of what is important to each of them and how they handle their feelings. Appreciate your writing very much.
