The Roommates – Fast Forward to 2019: Chapter 24

Bette frowned. “You are loved and wanted.”
“Shit.”
“What, Tina?”
“Bette, I thought we were taking a break.”
“Did you get my voicemail?”
“No, I didn’t listen to it yet. I got caught up with the family and calling you back slipped my mind,” said Tina.
“Okay, well can I come see you, Tina?” asked Bette.
“What’s going on Bette?”
“I realize that I didn’t give you a chance to tell me how you were feeling about everything. I know that I have my reasons for saying what I said this morning. But we’re in this together. I should have listened to you,” said Bette.
Tears rushed to Tina’s hazel eyes. “Why are you so fucking perfect?” she whispered.
“I’m not perfect.”
“You are perfect. Perfect for me, Bette.”
Bette sighed, butterflies flapping in her belly. “I miss you.”
“I miss you too.”
“So please, can I come see you?”
How could that possibly work? There’s no way she can see where I live. There’s no way to hide my life with Henry. It would destroy her. It would destroy everything.
“Bette, I want you to. God how I want you to,” she finally replied.
“But – – -,” said Bette.
“But tonight….tonight is no good.”
Tina could feel the defeat in Bette’s tone. “Oh.”
“I….I have some things I need to handle. But I can come see you tomorrow. I’ll even spend the night.”
Bette sighed. It had taken a lot for her to build up the energy for this conversation. The delay in seeing Tina filled her with more anxiety. “I – – – I don’t know, Tina.”
The sound of the more formal “Tina” was a little unsettling for the blonde.
“What’s wrong, Bette?”
“Nothing. Let’s play it by ear, okay? I’m gonna stay with Kit and Dylan again tonight. Then I need to work tomorrow. And probably most of the weekend. I’ll call you. Okay?”
“Bette – – -,” Tina began.
“It’s okay, Tina. I wasn’t thinking. You have a life. And so do I.”
“Bette – – -,” Tina started.
“Tina, we’ll keep our plan for right now. We’ll talk when we talk. I um…I have to go now. Dylan is waiting for me. Bye.”

Hola me gustan tus capítulos pero son muy poquitas páginas quiero más páginas por favor
me encantan tus historias
A second post? Wow. Feels like I’m getting all my gifts for Christmas a few weeks later this year. Tina’s comeback on the show on Sunday, now two chapters of your brilliant story on one day :-) Thanks a lot.
My comment on the previous chapter still stands. I hope Tina feels motivated enough to clear up her own situation without waiting for Bette’s divorce.
It’s a little like their younger selves of your previous books. They were fine and secure in their love when they were near each other. Drawing strenght from each other and thriving as a couple. When they were apart, the influence of family and their own insecurities made them question the love they had.
It’s great that you still show those character traits of B + T’s younger self (Bette) or time-twin-self (Tina). I said it before, I still see the 19 year old Bette inside the body of her older self. Her young soul probably is calling out for her soulmate “Tina, I need you!”
Well, enough of the mushy me ;-) I have complete confidence in you that you won’t make the drama too big for T + B. Nothing that will keep them apart forever. Please?
Thanks again for the double treat.
So Tina went to Thanksgiving Dinner with the family. With or Without Henry? Has she made any more progress on the breakup of her marriage? Bette is about 2 months ahead of Tina is getting her divorce. California takes a bit of time to get a divorce even an uncontested one.
Sidney is still a wild card in that she still wants or falsely believes that Bette belongs to her. I think Henry is a vast unknown. Will he fight a divorce from Chris? A break is truly something Tina needs to get her actions in sync with her desires and goals. The problem with Tina is has she got the gumption to put the get the process underway to get her life in order? And even if she does, its bound not to be smooth sailing. So she needs to come clean with Bette if she truly believes Bette is her future.
I like this story…I just wish Bette would catch a break and allow things to go her way for once.
thanks for this chapter.
Thank you for the chapter!
First – Alice sometimes can gives good advise)
Second – is Bette surely not on the drugs now? Because her mood swings unusual for healthy woman. She called Tina, wanted to come to her, and when Tina refused but suggested to meet tomorrow – again completely shutting her out. And on the second day Bette call to her again and say to her “T”. I don’t know, very strange behavior.
Maybe Bette needs to see a therapist, who could worked with rape victims?
Secrets give life to more secrets. Hope they come clean with each other and are able to move forward together. Compelling story with great drama! Thanks
