Chapter 72 – Voice of My Soul

Tina just stands there looking from Bettes eyes to the shining band Bette held between her fingers. Her eyes became teary as soon as she realized Bettes intentions. Tinas mind flashed back to Bettes first proposal. Their ride of love at first sight had always been wonderfully romantic with it culminating in the most romantic of proposals from Bette. Complete with violins and roses her first proposal had been like living in a story book but in the end they went down the path of taking each other for granted. There was something there that didnt last long enough because it was not nurtured. Here they are yet again and now the connection just feels so right. This connection between them was strong before but now it was so much more resilient having a brawn to it which gave Tina a feeling of strapping power and confidence. This Bette feels so familiar but different. Tina knew she was very much at home in this Bettes company. Bette was right when she says she has quit running from her feelings and has embraced them. This means that she wont leave her either physically or mentally ever again.

This time around she had a different goal in mind for what made the best marriage. She wanted to make their home a place of strength which they both could grow. She wanted to work hard side by side with Bette to create this home which includes love, respect, nurturing and honesty.

All these thoughts were crashing through Tinas mind creating a chaos that prevented her from responding to Bettes request immediately. Bette saw the tears and looking into the windows of Tinas soul she could see the flashing of emotions as they crossed Tinas mind.

Baby, T ? Bette gently said wanting to hear what all these emotions were. Bring Tina back to the present. T you know Im totally committed to you dont you?

Oh, Babe you just overwhelm me. Tina comes back to Bette with love shining in her eyes. Oh Bette, how could I refuse you, the love of my life especially now when Im surrounded by angels. Tina says as she looks from Bette up to the angel fountain with the lily in her hand.
