    Insight: The capacity to discern the true nature of a situation …

    Insight. Ch4

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    ‘I don’t know why you insist on being like this ……  Why on earth you won’t just take the pills ……  You’ve always been such a difficult child ……’

    The words rolled around inside Helena’s mind.

    “Helena … Helena …?”

    Dr Kennard sat across from her, watching her wrestle with her thoughts,

    “Helena, what’s the matter?”

    Helena dug into her pocket and pulled out another cigarette, slightly bent and squashed, lighting it and inhaling sharply,

    “My mother’s coming to visit.”

    “So she just kissed you … and left?” Alice asked, repeating the same sentence for the second time,

    Bette sighed, growing frustrated with their persistent line of questioning, “Yes …”

    She couldn’t explain how it was that it seemed so much more than that. How it felt when Helena had kissed her, transferring some kind of energy and heat across the space between them, like a promise or a secret, something she felt Helena wouldn’t have done with just anybody.

    “Weird,” Shane stated again,

    Dana flopped herself down at their table, their usual corner of The Planet becoming a place they would all convene together on an almost daily basis and exchange pleasantries until invariably the conversation would turn back to Helena,

    “What’s weird?” Dana asked, helping herself to a mouthful of Alice’s lemonade,

    “Hey!” Alice dragged it back off her “order your own, and Helena’s weird … that’s what,” she added, glaring pointedly at Bette,

    “She’s not weird,” Bette replied in a huff, “just different,”

    Shane nodded, “I’ll say …”

    But Bette had little to disprove their theory with, after turning up several hours late to her party, knocking back five or six healthy double gins, kissing her and then leaving, Bette hadn’t seen a sign of Helena in almost two days. Which meant it was drawing in on Friday afternoon and her plans of asking her to do something at the weekend were fading fast.

    “Dinner later?” Alice asked, as they parted ways and headed back to work,

    Bette nodded, “Sure,” she glanced at her watch as she began walking back to the car, pulling out her cell phone to call the office, “Hey James,”

    1. i f**ing love this story, it reminds me a little of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind in the best possible way, and it being one of my favorite movies of all time, this is a good thing…i love how the characters are bridging the strange terrain between them, how bette’s being just very easily moved beyond her control issues, and how helena is being forced to communicate, not forced in a bad way, just nudged along…very very lovely writing, i want mooooooooooooore! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

    4. Things are always interesting when Peggy shows up. I enjoy her but I hope she doesn’t put too much of the kibash on the budding romance. Or whatever it is. See? You’ve still got me wondering.

    7. Ahhh O.K., still no answers to all the questions…just more intrigue and strange behaviour. Helena does have Mommy issues, even in this story it seems, but it still seems like there’s another cause for Helena’s problem besides Peggy. Now, is Helena really attracted to Bette, or is Bette just a life line for her in her current state? I’m hoping Dr. Kennard will see Helena’s dependency on Bette and that will be the catalyst for introducing Bette and Tina. Oh hell, this is your story…I’ll just wait and read your version! Great update Sofa.

    9. Seems slightly like a nerves breakdown. Itss going to get better. Peggy is in town. In my mind they will be good friends. Still waiting for Ms Hottie in heels. thanks

    10. It keeps getting better and more intrigueing. I like the slow build and the character development but I can’t wait for everything to be revealed. I’m going to cosign on the comment from toby4ever…
