My Skin is Painfully New – Chapter 13
Bette gasped. She could actually see the features clearly on the screen. Previously she had nodded knowingly, but in reality had not been able to make out a single thing on the ultrasound. The image before her now was striking. She could make out the eyes, the delicately shaped nose, and the tiny little lips. Bette felt a skip in her heartbeat as a connection with this child, this perfect little girl, was made in that instant. She felt an awe-inspiring rush of love pour through her body at the sight. Bettes beautiful brown eyes again filled with tears, this time not in sorrow, anger, hurt, disappointment or jealousy. This time her eyes filled with tears of joy. Tina gazed at Bette and knew that no one could love her child, their child, more.
Bettes shoulders shook slightly as she worked to contain the sobs threatening to consume her.
Tina, she is so absolutely beautiful. Shes real. Shes real, Tina. Shes really going to come to us. Shes not going to go away. Bette sobbed and leaned over to embrace Tina softly, the unspoken grief of the baby who never did come to them washing over the women.
They held each other and cried together for everything they had lost.
Dr. Soodak silently slipped out of the room.
The world disappeared while the two women clung to each other, their sobs dissipating to little hiccups, their tears no longer steady streams, but occasional big drops staining each others face, hair and clothes.
Bette, I need you, whispered Tina.
Tina I need you more than youll ever know, Bette whispered back.
Bette gently put her mouth over Tinas and kissed her with all the love and tenderness she felt at that moment, her lips and tongue telling Tina the depth of her feeling. They kissed softly, pulled back to look at each other, and came together again in sweet embraces. Bette and Tina did not want to leave the dark little room with the image of their daughter on the screen next to them, for it was in that space that their family was finally born.

WONDERFUL CHAPTER
I am repeating myself but I so love your story, I like tha Bette has really fallen back in love with Tina, she deserves that. Love it.
SHometimes words are not enough to capture the moment, the essence and emotions that you feel. This chapter does it so well that my words would just fall flat.
Much gratitude for a truly wonderous tale. Each chapter builds on the previous one and keeps us all coming back.
Have a glorious trip but hurry back as am desperate to see what happens next.
What a great update…I depend on this site to keep me from going nuts between the Sunday angst! Thanks
