Before the Fall – Five
Dana frowned.
“That can’t be it,” Alice said in irritation.
“She’s right! There has to be more to it than that!”
“Who cares! Bette’s awake,” Shane exclaimed and headed for Bette’s door.
“Bette doesn’t remember anything, that’s what Helena said. And Bette didn’t remember me,” Alice explained.
“Bette doesn’t remember?” Dana echoed in confusion.
“No,” Helena, Alice, and Tina snapped.
““
“You can’t be serious,” Alice muttered.
Dr. Toms and Dr. Davis stared at the gathered women in turn.
“I’m afraid so,” Dr. Toms said.
“I don’t really think that we should do that,” Helena protested hesitantly from her seat in the corner.
“You should really be quiet,” Tina snapped glaring at Helena.
“Don’t tell me to be quiet. I have more reason to be here than you,” Helena said coldly.
“Guys! C’mon. Focus,” Shane said.
“I’ve seen her. Spoken to Bette,” Dr. Davis said taking over the conversation as he shifted in his seat.
Dr. Toms sighed and ran a hand through his gray hair. He squinted green eyes at them as he settled more comfortably in the hard chair.
“Having spoken to her…seen her. To take this back… To tell her you essentially lied to her when she’s at her most vulnerable, that’s not a wise choice,” Dr. Davis continued.
“But it was an accident,” Helena muttered.
“Be that as it may,” Dr. Toms said his voice hard. “She trusts you. All of you through Ms. Peabody. To take that away would be detrimental to her recovery. She won’t feel as if she can trust any of you. How is she to know you aren’t lying to her?”
“So we’re going to lie to her?” Dana asked hesitantly.
“Continue on the way things are. She thinks that she’s involved with Ms. Peabody. We should keep that as is. I’m not going to say I’m comfortable with this, because I’m not. But as we’re not sure how long or extensive her brain trauma is… We’ll have to run extensive tests. Perhaps once we know exactly what is wrong with Ms. Porter then we can discuss…telling her,” Dr. Davis said glancing at Dr. Toms for confirmation.
Dr. Toms nodded.
“Okay let’s recap this. We believe that Ms. Porter is suffering from retrograde amnesia. Which means that she suffered a severe enough trauma to the brain that she doesn’t remember anything prior to the accident. Her encoded memory is intact. Meaning that speaking, writing, and comprehension are functioning. We’ll learn more as we go along. And you should know that the Bette you used to know does not exist right now, she may never be the way she was. This Bette is some one new. There will be changes she’ll go through and to be honest it will be a hard road, especially for her.” Dr. Toms said briskly.
