FORCE of NATURE
Chapter 18
Preflight Planning
~~~~~
Bette was still at the gallery, long after closing and well into the evening. She had finally finished the work she had slated for the day, but had not been motivated to go home in the half-hour since its completion. She sat mindlessly twirling a pen in her hand and staring out her office window at the night-lights of the city.
The conversation with Tina played over in the brunette’s thoughts. The earlier call had left her struggling against the impulse to hop a plane and surprise the blonde mommy in New York City. She knew just what she would do if common sense hadn’t reared its head and trumped grand gestures; the last thing she wanted to do was risk scaring off the woman of her dreams. Nevertheless, the beautiful brunette did not abandon all the romantic ideas that sprung to life surrounding the blonde mommy’s trip east.
The notepad on her desk caught her eye and she glanced quickly at the clock. She mentally estimated the arrival time of the blonde’s flight to New York; the concierge of Tina’s hotel had assured the gallery owner he would take care of everything before Ms. Kennard’s arrival. She reached out with her pen and whimsically circled ‘lilies’ among the list on the pad.
When the blonde mommy had mentioned that this would be her first trip back to New York since moving to Los Angeles six months ago, Bette felt the apprehension weighting Tina’s tone. ‘So many shadows of loss…’ The brunette thought with concern.
In their friendship over the months of play dates with their children, Tina had talked some about the friends she and Kelley had shared, how Kelley’s death had left them fractured in a way that was painfully awkward. Coupled with the distance Kelley’s family had imposed, the trip to New York would undoubtedly trigger moments of profound sadness for the blonde mommy. Bette sighed. She wished she could save the blonde mommy from any more sorrow. ‘I can at least try to give her a little something to smile about…’ Bette thought as she tore the list free from the notepad.

Hey Sunkissed, I just keep coming back to the point that Kelley’s body was never recovered therefore she may have lived.This would be a real shock for Tina as she has finally embarked on a new relationship with Bette after some much grief and sorrow.I hope that Tina can find her way to her true love… Bette of course.Anthony and Madie would be distraught without each other.You just keep twisting the knife.Brilliant.More please and many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
Wish drawings: &_#*% … @}{@ … Just in case you can’t tell, the first one is Grandma Vera sitting in her rocking chair looking at Anthony and Madie as they hold Pete the Pup in the air between them. Meanwhile, on the other side of the room, Bette and Tina are having their noses collide whilst they’re making out. ;-)
And this is where you left us the last time – please don´t do that again, it´s such a beautiful story..and I´m going a little nuts here guessing who in NY.
Well I just caught up to this incredible story and I can’t believe I find the same cliff hanger…oh god I had forgotten all about this…Please bring more beautiful sweet moments along with the drama that is on the horizon. Thank you and PPVS!
It`s Kelly…OMG.PPS
Just who is this raven haired woman? Hmmm. I smell drama.
Ah, the mystery woman. I had some vague metaphor worked out about dark clouds and new relationships and sunshine, but my breakfast sugar boost is working against me and what I wanted to say is as sludgy as the leftover cereal I didn’t finish. So, instead, I’m just gonna say thank you for the chapter, and please post soon, sk. :)
Oh man! Drama rama going to happen. Is that Kelly by the way? Thank you for this wonderful story SK/C. Just awesome.
WHAT WAS THAT? And you didn’t even prepare us… I am not a spring chicken you know. These things can be danderous.. I certainly hope we “hear” from you really soon!
I’ve missed this story and am glad you are continuing. A few months ago I even said in my comment that I felt Kelley was alive. Hmm. What are you up to pray tell.
Yes, very selfish of me not wanting her to go to New York unless Bette was with her because I knew this was coming and I don’t want anything to come between them an d their newly budding relationship. If that is indeed Kelley, I’m so sorry she has amnesia, that has to be the most awful thing to happen to one, to not know who you are nor your previous life and loved ones and to top it off, they don’t even know that you are alive. Bummer in the extreme. Now if I can just sit and wait for the next couple chapters without conjuring all sorts of things that may or may not happen. Thanks for posting.
Nice move with Anthony Tina lol.Gosh I was afraid of this part and expected that you have taking it out of the chapter. Unfortunately no, I am sure this mystery woman is Kelley and I don’t like that at all. Now, my heart is thumping like mad and please come back yesterday sunkissed.:-)
Yea we’re going to the zoo. Reminds me of a song. I won’t sing though that could hurt your ears. Now who is this mysterious person. Hummm???
Drama is on the horizon. PPS
Oh God! Please don’t let it be Kelley. My Tina is finally starting to get her life back. PPS!!
When you mentioned earlier in the story that Kelley’s body was never recovered I had a feeling she would show up at some point. Poor Tina’s heart. We all know it belongs to Bette. Anxious to see how you settle all of this.
WHEW!Still in a state of panic without resolution and am loving the trip.
Here we go! Was waiting fir this moment. I’ve thought of many scenerios since the hiatus of your story. Finally – I can’t wait pps
Hmm a mysterious woman in a park, staring off into space, not even feeding the pigeons or the squirrels, how intriguing…. What kind of shoes is she wearing?
Er…SK…no, no, not a lump on your head…that was a love tap. Heh-heh. And now a HUG for writing a wonderful and cute chapter. Can’t wait…natives are restless again. :)
What the ???? OMG – what ARE you up to? PPS!
Noooooh! Is the raven-haired woman Kelley? PPVS! This is killing me.
Looks like our lovely story is about to take a twist. And yes 1962 has a meaning. It’s when my journey began. :)
lol @ Madcapper. I Hope this mystery woman is just another random hobo sitting in the park in a pair of white thongs … no drama right? Cheers sk
Uh oh SK, this doesn’t look good- who is the mysterios creature in NYC?? Did I tell you that I break out in hives when I read angsty cliffhangers in fanfic? Unless, you know, the author posts really really soon. Really soon. Hint, hint :) lovely job btw :)
