“What do you mean no Dad?” Rodger asks piping up.
Angelica still isn’t thrilled with him. She can’t say why but she isn’t fond of Rodger and the fact that he hangs around Paige all the time now it just frustrates her. Angelica lets Paige know her displeasure by rolling her eyes before turning to Rodger with her response. “Not all of us can have one.”
Paige not wanting to alienate Michael’s best friend supplies a more detailed answer. “Angelica’s Mom was inseminated so you see she really doesn’t have one.”
Rodger digests this information for a few moments before nodding his head. “Oh so you’re one of those tests tube babies huh?”
This instantly rubbed Angelica wrong, making her angry. His comment just confirming for Angelica how ignorant he was, “No I don’t think any test tubes were involved other than maybe the one used to collect the sperm.”
“Oh so your Mom just picked random guy off the street to be a donor or something is that it?” Rodger challenges not letting the subject go.
"I really don’t know how she did it. All I know is that she made a conscious choice to have the donor be black.” As soon as she said this she wished she could take it back. The expressions on both the guy’s faces hit her in the stomach and gave her a sinking feeling.
It was Michael who spoke up first. “You mean you’re half black? I thought you were Italian.”
Angie just looks at him as if he’s nuts. “No I’m half black. I don’t think it’s ever been a secret it’s just something that is. Why does it matter?” Angie challenges.
“No … No.” Both Michael and Rodger say quickly.
Angelica looks at Paige thinking she would pipe in any minute and say it didn’t matter but she was silent just looking at Angelica. When the silence carried on for a few moments, Paige finally offered. “Well it gives meaning to your painting. Nice … Angelica nice.”
Angie didn’t really know what Paige meant but didn’t want to go into it in front of Michael and his buddy Rodger. “Well guys thanks for stopping by.” Angie offered hoping they would leave.

Tina isn’t quite there for Angelica.
Tina being stuck at the airport reminds me of my times flying out of Chicago. I hate that place. As for what the hell is wrong with Tina, some things you just can not help. Granted if I was Angie I’d be angry too, but still, work is work and sometimes it holds pole position.
I read that last line and just thought “ouch!” When your personal promise as a mother makes your child believe just the opposite, that’s when you know you’re in trouble. Sorry about not posting after the other chapter, I just came online for the first time since yesterday afternoon. Powerful image of the painting J…absolutely powerful. Clearly there is a whole lot going on inside Angelica’s head, that’s for sure! Can’t wait to read the next step in this story! Thanks!
Excellent as always. A great job with the Bette/Tina personality reversals.
Tina’s really struggling. She needs that extra pair of CARING hands and caring heart that Bette could bring to the family. In Tina’s quest to be successful in her career, she letting the most important of her life play second fiddle. Time is always more important than material things. It’s a difficult balancing act. PPS.
I really like this chapter. Paige really isn’t a friend to Angelica. She needs to get rid of her fast! Michael and Rodger are two idiots. I’m happy that Angelica said something to them. Anyways, I really hope that Tina will tell Angelica the truth instead of keeping her in the dark about Bette. I think that’s sweet about giving Shane money for her “big family.” Thanks for the post. PPS!
I can quite imagine that Tina is actually feeling as bad as Angelica!
I don’t blame Angelica for being angry with Tina. A parent has to put their child first. I love this story. pps
WOW!!!!! I can see Angie running away from Tina. I do hope that Tina realies she is going to loose Angie if she keeps the truth from her. Bette is doing better and that is so great. I just hope that she and Shane can get the teen shelter they want for run aways. Great Story. Thanks PPS
This is a great story so far and I know it will only get better and have Bette and Tina with some kind of relationship and hopefully it will be a loving one again. They all need it right now and Angie will be the one big catalyst that brings it about. Can hardly wait for the next chapter. PPS
Poor Angie. I can understand her losing faith in Tina. I’m usually a big Tina fan, but she’s not that appealing at the moment. Can’t wait to see how you tie everything together. Hope you had a good holiday. Thanks for the chapter.
thank you for your kind words….on to the story: i hope tina will pay more attention to angie and talk to her…can’t wait for B&T to meet, i have a feeling that Angie will make it happen somehow
what a nice surprise to visit on Labor Day! You have a way of starting your stories that captures me as a reader. Like all the other readers; I can’t wait till Bette and Tina meet; and see if the new and improved Bette handles the truth that Tina had Angelica, using their Donor and not letting her know all these years! Fireworks or just thankfulness that Tina did love her all those years ago! I recall you having 5 chapters ready and this is number 4….mmmm, does that mean we get one more soon? Please? Thanks for this new story.
What a treat to come home and fine two posts from Jwet. Hmm, maybe Tina will need to consult a professional about Angelica’s artistic abilities… ;)
Wow, I was really hoping Bette was going to show up for some reason. Not good that Angelica doesn’t hold much belief in Tina’s promise. I think its time Angelica heard about Bette.
Hmmm it’s not easy being the sole parent; and surely it must feel oftentimes for Tina that her right arm is missing. Ange certainly needs her mama B and Tina needs to confide her story to Ange b4 this girl somehow runs to LA and Shane’s and Bette’s home for streetkids…used to work in that field myself…enjoying the developing drama. Thx for shout out & comments.
Angelica needs Bette right now. Without even knowing it, Angelica is reaching out to her other mother. I get the feeling that you are laying some ground work with this grant that Bette is looking into. Is this going to be the setting that Angelica and Bette come face to face?
This is so good!
Still great. Angie might be showing in BEtte’s gallery… like a way of getting money for the shane thing… I can’t wait for the next one :)
Wow Jwet, that fact that Angie doesn’t hold much credence to Tina’s promises is extremely sad. Well I guess she will have to figure it out herself. I like Bette’s idea of a place for the other kids, maybe Angie can contribute to that in the future.
Interesting, interesting. Now I summarize my thoughts. The picture shows Angie an inner fight for me with her black half. Yes, perhaps she also feels this a little is missing, Bette. Bette could help her much better. The picture shows for me a little an uncaring mother Tina is. I am pleased that she will meet Bette soon. You have answered my question. Although you write this for Tina and Bette become friends again. But I am plead you on my knees. And take sun to my heart. You must let Tina and Bette become a couple again. This would help Bette certainly furthermore to fight against her illness. Because leukemia can break out again. Tina and Angie can give Bette love and satisfaction, this would Bette help for her state of health. Therefore please let the two to the end of this story happily and contentedly live with each other in love and peace, please.
It’s very difficult when children don’t have basic information about their origins. Tina is keeping this big secret to protect herself not Angelica. Angel needs Tina’s attention and honesty not her credit card. This is already a great story.
HEY JW, I have just finished your latest two chapters. And all I can thin is WOW!!! Bette is softer. Her brush with her own mortality has opened her eyes to some of her failings. Now, she is able to step back and let other’s run the show,. Loved the stagecoach metaphor there. I was think about a puppet master. Shane has been a brick throughout it all. Sweet to see that they are giving back and Bette is now ready to do more. Then Angelica anad Tina: seems like Tina has taken on the worst of Bette’s character traits to survive and prosper in the film industry. Difficulty here is that Angelica is now suffering like Tina once did. And we all know how well that ended. It looks like Angelica is now on the hunt for the truth and I do hope this leads to Bette. These pair need to know about each other and share their thoughts and experiences of Tina. Maybe this could even bring Bette and Tina some closure although I do hoper that the lessons they have learnt will allow them to rekindle their love affair. JW, as ever you astound and amaze me at every turn. The simplest gestures often make the biggest impact. Thank you for this rocking tale. More please. Your Loyal Fan.
I can’t wait to see how you bring about the Angelica, Tina and Bette meeting. Angie’s gonna be a runaway, right, huh, right???? I can’t wait for the next chapter.
