DR. AMERTADI- “I’ve ordered it already doctor. They should be able to take her in later today.”
BAILEY- “Very good.” (She smiles and turns to leave and heads for the door. She slows and then turns, for some reason, to look back. She sees Bette’s hand just barely on Amertadi’s hand, which was rested on the patient’s bed. Amertadi was nodding and Bette seemed to be just commenting on what had just happened and Amertadi was smiling as she nodded. Bailey turned to the door and walked out. She shook her head and kept walking. She saw Tina sitting near the elevators. She walked over.) “Dr. Kennard…”
TINA- (She looks up…) “Oh, yes doctor…”
BAILEY- “What’s up? Changed your mind about the psyche ward?”
TINA- (She chuckles…) “I guess I’m just taking it all in. Sorry…I didn’t mean to jump in there earlier.”
BAILEY- “Not at all. You were on the ball, as always. You know it reminded me of when you were doing your residency eons ago. You always were very good.”
TINA- “Thank you doctor. I’m surprised you even remember.”
BAILEY- “Oh come now…I may be getting old but the noggin’s still working. How can I forget. You and Bette were just starting…” (She stops dead in her tracks as she realizes she’s recalling a time long ago, when things were so very different…) “Well, it was long ago but…well…you’ve certainly come a long way since then. I suppose we all have. It’s good to see you’re just as passionate as then in your work. Some people lose that.”
TINA- (Tina looks at her curiously…) “You picked up all that from the few moments in there?”
BAILEY- “No…but I’m very incisive you know…” She smiles at her…
TINA- (Blushing a bit and shaking her head…) “Sorry…I just…it was no big deal…I…”
BAILEY- “No worries doctor. I’m off…have a good evening.”
TINA- “You too Dr. Bailey.” (Bailey leaves.)
(Bette made her way out of ICU and into the hallway and sees Tina….)
“Hey,” Bette says as she touches Tina’s arm. She smiles, “Trying to make me look bad in front of Bassey!”
“YOU? Look bad? Never!” (They continue walking down the hallway as they talk and reach the end of it before it turns off and is out of sight of the other end of the hall where ICU is located)

Good to see an update Merlin! Bette is unbeleivable sometimes. ALthough I love Bette it served her right in being dismissed. She must not care all that much about Amertadi, which is too bad because I liked them toegther. As for Tina, I am in the minority with NOT wanting a reunion but would like to know more about their past realtionship. I hope you post real soon! lol
i want a REUNION :)
I really enjoyed this update, by page 7 I didn’t want it to end.
Hey there Merlin, I love your stories so, of course, I’m still reading. I almost feel sorry for Bette, self-absorbed as she is sometimes, seems like she’s about to get a tongue-lashing from all sides! Your author’s note left me thinking and brought to mind the saying that happiness is not getting what you want, but wanting what you already have. Take care.
Who’s a stranger? Maybe Bette won’t be in so much hot water with the boss with Amertadi giving her the kiss off. Is it permanent? Why shouldn’t it be with Dr. Kennard on the scene? You know it’s not that I don’t like the senior staff, it’s just I don’t much care for authority figures meddling in the private affairs of adults who are their professional juniors. Merlin, believe me, I know being alone is no picnic, but what many fail to realize that there ARE worse things. Like settling for less. Keep your chin and your standards up.
Great chapter Merlin! I think Bette just got dumped! Yeh!! Now maybe she & Tina can start to talk. PPS!!
This is why I prefer to just not date anyone from work. Well, not like I have that problem anyway seeing as I’m the only lesbian where I work. lol I’m with B&TF. I want a reunion! ;)
Glad that you are back. I have missed this story. I am glad that Emma has seen through Bette. Did Bette leave Tina or vise versa? Of course being a Tibetter at heart I will always want them together, no matter what. I too have been alone for many years, sometimes it is better and other times it drives me insane. Oh yeah I am already insane.
Ido believe that Emma just blew Bette off. Would like to know why the break up between Bette and Tina. Lets go with the flow of your story and get our Bette and Tina together but not soon as then the story would end. thanks
Merl, loving it as usual. The banter between Bette and Em was serious, and yet at one point, after Em keeps referencing their sexual encounters as “f*cking”, Bette finishes it for her. That caused me to chuckle. The story is brilliantly laid out and being developed. Thank you for sharing your creative mind with us, as well as taking the time to do shout outs. On a personal note, I hope that wherever you are in your life, you are able to find some belief that you are where you are meant to be “at this moment.” That doesn’t mean that it can’t change tomorrow, next week, next month, or next year. I truly believe we are all learning lessons in life with what we experience. Take care Merl, and always try to look for the positive, because believe it or not somewhere even in those darkest moments, there is a slice of it there. We just need to find it. ((((( HUGS )))))
Hey Merl, thanks for the update. Bette can be so self-absorbed sometimes. Amertadi is so right to get pissed off, and I can’t wait for Tina to put in her two cents worth and Bailey also. Sounds like Bette is about to get hit by a truck (lol). Maybe she should do a tour in psych. to learn behavior modification techniques. Don’t stay away too long!
I’m still reading…how could I not be? Your writing is too good to miss! Thanks!
What a tangled web you weave….and I’m thankful for that!!!
Glad to see an update from you Merlin. What a story. I wish Bette and Tina would get together at some point :-)
Hey Merl, Great to have you back with this exciting post. I love all of the shenanigans and messing around. Now more of Bette and Tina’s past needs to be revealed. Just lapping it all up. Thank you so much for returning and continuing this most excellent tale. Your Loyal Fan.
