Chapter 23 – Back to Work
Tina looks over again at Anna as her daughter sits in her highchair pounding her little fists on the tray. She was pounding away as Tina whirled around the kitchen trying to think if she had missed anything. Today was her first day back to work since Annas birth. Since the au pair still had one week before she arrived, Tina has employed a home daycare service for the week. The woman had yet to arrive and Tina was hoping to have a few minutes to make sure all was in place for one last time. She had run through all of these details last night but still it gave her a small measure of comfort to recheck it all again. With everything still where she had left it the previous night, Tina picks up Anna and carries her into the living room and places her in her jump about. Placing all her toys in the tray so she will be hopefully occupied for the next 10 minutes.
Now Anna, your Mom has to get dressed if she has any hope of getting out of here today. You be a good girl as I will be in the bathroom. Tina tells her girl who just looks up at her Mom as if she really understands every word.
Laughing Tina just straightens up and moves towards the bathroom, she only has another 20 minutes before the sitter arrives and she needs to get a move on. It all seemed to be happening so fast today. It just seemed like yesterday that Anna was born and the two month leave seemed long enough. Before Tina knew it the door bell was ringing and Tina was letting in her help for today. Running through all the instructions and emergency numbers, food and bottles, what Annas favorite things, her toys and where the extra diapers were took all of Tinas spare time and now it was time to go.
Standing in the front door, Tina just looked at her baby as the sitter picked her up and waved her little hand at Tina in goodbye. With tears in her eyes, Tina tore herself away and ran to her car. She needed to get out of here before she lost her resolve and threw the sitter out and stayed home for good.

Those words brought tears to my eyes remembering how hard it was to leave my daughter after the maternity leave was up! I don’t know of many moms who successfully manage to arrive at work the first day back without loosing their mascara! Thanks for that!
Starting my day off right with your adorable story;P Omg…Bette is such a sweetheart!! Cooking…and was she responsible for the cleaning as well?! She just amazes me with every chapter you submit. =D<~I can't stop smiling...you're responsible for that. Thanks Jwet, please post soon, i would love to see what Tina's reaction is to this new non-selfish & loving Bette Porter=)

Bette is definitley gonna steal Tina’s heart away again, hopefully soon and for good. I can’t tell you enough how much I love this story! Thanks for posting.

Getting caught up again and they’ve all been amazing!
Wow this is awesome, Bette is cooking for Tina and let see how it’s work. Post soon!
wo! Bette? Cooking? Never thought it! I’m glad I checked before turning in.
Looks like Tina has more ideas for the grant than Bette originally thought?
Great story and good to know we have 20 or so chapters to look forward to!
Have a good start to the new work week.
Happiness is me, with a good episode and a good chapter.
Methinks that Bette wants to be doing some other kind of cooking with Anna’s mom after Anna goes to bed…but I think that’s a part for a little longer down the line. Nicely done.
Dude okay Bette is cooking for Tina. Wow she really has changed and is in love. Awesome chapter as always. I love that Tina has her own life too.
Jwet, so cyber coffee it is then… (although a real one would b much much better… :D)
Bette cooking? Pls tell me she’s not just reheating food she bought but she’s actually cooking everything from scratch!!! I can see it in my head now… yes… good food she’s cooking! U know wat they say “the way to a man’s heart” (but in this case woman’s!)
Love it…
I was gona say why did Tina ask Bette to help until the new babysitter came..Great job I love it.

Ooh Bette in the kitchen cookin up some loving! Love it. Please continue and I know you will with twenty or so chapters left…
I only discovered this site a few days ago. I read your whole story from chapter to chapter in a matter of hours-consequently, gaining a numb arse. I was intoxicated by the story and the way inwhich you bring the characters to life. I’m very impressed and …hooked! I await your next posting.
Hello babes,
Have been away for 3 days and come back to three whole new chapters. Wowwee!!
As for your cliffhanger am now demented to see what will happen next.
How did Bette get Anna? Did she have something to do with the baby sitter? Did Bette get the house cleaned? Bette cooking?!!.
Hoping that all these and more will be answered in you next post.
Looking forward to tomorrow.
RD
PS – this story lightens my day everytime I read a chapter.
Love it. You out do yourself each time. Bette cooking with Tina at work, love that.
Excellent post, can’t wait for more.
Very nice, Bette is Martha Stewart in disguise.(Bette the domestic goddess, aahh)
Loved this chapter.
Thank you.
Now that is a nice home coming, hot food and a hot woman cooking it – what more can a beating heart ask for!!
i adore this story, it makes me so happy – Bette taking care of them sounds wonderful!
People forgets that Bette can clean house cookingm At some point in her life surely she can cook,not like Tina or Lasra,but she can cook.
ooooo – Bette all cute and sexy in the kitchen – the heart of the home, the heart of the woman ?? – Hell yes !! Go Bette – seduce that woman back to where they both belong. Love it, Thank you !!!
