Dawn of a new day
Bette: She wasn’t very kind and she definitely was not good for my self-esteem. Although we didn’t date long she managed to open some old wounds that weren’t fully healed. Sometimes she would look at me with such disdain that I felt like a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of her shoe. She said things that really cut to the core.
Val: I’m really sorry you had to experience that Bette. You are such a good person I can’t imagine anyone treating you like that.
Bette: Thanks Val. I’m working through it but I’ve just been attracting some really bad karma for the past couple of years. I’m trying not to completely shut down but it’s hard to keep putting forth the effort. Anyway I guess that is just my long-winded way of saying that I’m being very cautious with my heart and who I let into my life these days…
“Yes and apparently it’s the same woman Kelly referred to as Jodi’s schizophrenic friend Amy/Agatha. I can believe that she had a split personality because she did display many of the classic behaviors but I had no idea that she even knew Jodi Lerner. That bitch never stopped stalking me or fucking with my life. Now that I think back to when the relationship with Amy turned really dark it started after she got back from a weekend retreat with some artist friends. It was some kind of annual ritual that the five friends started after college and kept up for over ten years. I bet Jodi Lerner was one of them. Amy told me that I couldn’t go with her because they never invited outsiders to join, not even spouses or significant others.
It didn’t bother me that she went off with her friends but I saw a definite change in Amy’s behavior when she got back. I just blamed it on one of her mood swings because more frequently there were times with Amy that I felt like I didn’t know her at all. She would sometimes go off for days at a time without letting me know where she’d been and then she would come back and act as if nothing happened. If I questioned her whereabouts she would tell me it was none of my business that she just needed space because I was suffocating her. Other times she would be all over me telling me that she missed me and loved me and wanted a life with me.

I was just completing and sending my comment from the last chapter when I discovered this new chapter. So happy that Bette told Tina about her history. It is important that they have nothing between that would affect their lives in the future. Its great that Tina is mature enough and sure of herself to understand all that has transpired in Bettes’ life and still be able to love and share in their love and future plans. All these negative things have changed and colored Bettes’ life in a significant way and now Tina understands the nuances that makes Bette the woman that she has become yet still love her to the bone. Wonderful chapter. Thanks for posting.
Also happy that helena seems to have redeemed herself with her mother. I just hope she carries through and not warn those two hellish bitches of their impending doom. Can hardly wait to see what happens next. Enjoying these chapters so much. Thanks.
Dang BAT!! It’s hard trying to catch up with your story as you post faster than I can read your chapters but you are doing such an excellent job even if I haven’t commented in a few chapters!
I love that Bette is fully opening up and trusting Tina enough to share her history with Jodi as it gives Tina a better understanding of how that has been a part of what has shaped Bette into the woman she is. I love how you have Tina so supportive of Bette and sure of where she is in Bette’s life now. Helena seems to be showing some redeeming qualities and that’s good to see and of course I just love your Peggy in this story. Kelly and Jodi really don’t stand a chance with Peggy looking out for things
Thanks BAT – Loved it!
What a great chapter, thank you:
for taking the Peggy/Helena relationship to a better level and expanding their characters
for strengthening Bette/Tina’s relationship by Bette trusting the full story and Tina showing such strength and support
Beautifully written and great storytelling as always look forward to your next post.
Just wanted to tell you that I am still reading but I didn’t comment because I read this story before and remember especially this part of the story. So not to give anything away I am staying away from commenting but know I always follow your exceptional writing.
Bat, it was a great chapter. you bring together miraculously. I loved the part where Peggy and Martha “interrogation led Helena” :D
It was really great to see that Helena honestly told the story, and she regretted what she had done. the change in the behavior of Helena is the most positive thing for me. I hope to stay that way!
I’m very glad to Bette, was able to honestly say Tina, what did Jodie. Tina supportive, loving and compassionate behavior was the best.
Overall, it was a wonderful chapter.
I am lost, it’s hard to comment when i read the comments from the others, i agree with all of them.
I have read this story before but can’t remember everything, so for me it is so good as new.
You are a fantastic writer and i love this story.
Thank you for the quick updates!
Thanks BAT, it was a profound chapter and so well written. I loved the way you handled the conversation between Helena and the two moms and how mature she had become in being honest with herself and Peggy. Sometimes words do need to be said in order for healing to take place.
I also love the place where Tina and Bette are in their relationship in being open and honest with one another. Relationships are hard and do take lots of work to be the best they can be. I have a good feeling that Bette and Tina are well on their way to that kind of relationship.
Thanks for this amazing story.
