Why, Bette? (Part 6)
* * * * *
The next morning, Bette walked down the hall in her light blue robe. “Tina?” she called out.
“In here, babe.”
Bette walked into the kitchen to find Tina sitting at the kitchen table staring at the laptop monitor and scribbling something on a pad of paper.
“What are you doing?”
“I think I solved our problem.”
“Really? Let me call Suzanne and Dan and cancel our appointments.” Bette laughed, then asked seriously, “What problem is that?”
“That big elephant in the bedroom. Our bed. This morning when I got up, I got online and ‘googled’ furniture and bed. I think I found some good ones. Take a look.
Bette walked over and stood behind her. She bent down and kissed her cheek, then nuzzled her neck.
Tina turned to kiss her. “Ooh, cool mint.”
Bette marveled at the softness of Tina’s lips, but she was distracted when her eyes landed on the monitor. “That’s nice.”
“Yeah, but it isn’t my first choice. Take a look at this one,” she said, going back to the keyboard and clicking to the site. “What’d you think?”
“Furniture for Environmentalists. They’re kidding, right?”
“No, read the description.”
“Solid mahogany frame. Adjustable headboards, very edgy. Asian-influenced. Very cool.” She furrowed her brows in puzzlement. “Why do these people have a picture of our bed?” She laughed again. “Let’s order it.”
“Well, I was thinking we might go look at it. There’s a furniture store on LaBrea that carries it.”
“All right. The store probably opens at Noon. What do you say we do breakfast or brunch, then go over and take a look?”
“Sounds like a plan. Do you want to eat at the Planet?”
Bette walked over to the Senseo coffee maker and turned it on for a cup. She leaned against the counter, facing Tina. “Umm, no, not really. For now, Tina, if you don’t mind, I’d rather keep our process to ourselves. I’m just not comfortable with everyone knowing or speculating about every little detail of our lives.”
“That’s fine. Speaking of everyone, how are you feeling about our friends?”

Portia, your story is pure genius. Congrats on finishing, and I so look forward to reading more of your writing in the future.
Portia just read your series excellent!!
Please write some more. Wonderful series.
I have been patiently waiting for your new chapter, wow was I blown away. I just Loved how you told your story with so much love along with the heartache that a couple feels with infidelity. It is the most intimate betrayle ones partner can do. It opens up so many doubts which you have explored thru your story along with ” we all have our own stories of our childhood” you also explored that thru your story which tells a lot how one’s behavior is in a relationship. I hope that you write more for us readers to enjoy. Thank-you very much.
This series was amazing!!!!
Portia, I just hope that my We are Family! Series comes out a fraction as good as this series was. You’re good, write some more, please! :D

Great work!
I’ve greatly enjoyed you story.You’ve done a great job making us feel all the emotiona that Bette&Tina feel or felt.
Portia – I loved your tory – I printed the whole thing out & read it like a novel – you write so fluidly and handle powerful emotion and angst so well and then wrap it all up neatly – what more could we ask for – a good meaty read – I admire greatly the ability to get into the head of a character – I can’t write for Toffee – but I read avidly. Please do create more of this quality – I’ll start your next story & keep looking out for your name. Thanks
Bravo! Very well done! Your descriptions were fantastic. I will keep an eye out for more of your work.
