“Helena! What’s wrong? Is it Bette?”
Helena didn’t bother to look up as she heard Alice’s voice and her running feet.
“Oh, Helena don’t tell me Bette’s dead! Helena? What’s wrong?”
“Alice,” Helena moaned. “I swear I didn’t mean to. I…I don’t know what I was thinking.”
“Is she dead? I’m going in there,” Alice snapped stepping past Helena.
Helena dropped her hands and grabbed Alice’s arm.
“Alice,” she said desperately. “Please believe me when I tell you I… I…”
Alice peered at her some of the anxiousness leaving her face but now it was replaced by acute worry.
“Helena…what did you do?” Alice demanded.
“She’s alive, Alice. She’s awake. I… I was going to leave. I swear it. I was. But somehow…words…and I just…”
“You’re scaring me, Helena. What. Did. You. Do.”
Helena couldn’t speak, she could only shake her head in despair.
Alice brushed past Helena and into Bette’s room.
“Bette you’re awake! We were so worried. Oh! I’m going to hug you now,” Alice exclaimed hurrying over to Bette.
Bette stiffened and held up her hands.
“Helena…who’s this? Who are you? D…don’t touch me.”
Alice turned to stare at Helena who had followed her in. Helena glanced away and at the ground.
“Bette don’t you know who I am? I’m Alice! You’re best friend. And this is Hele–“
“Helena. My girlfriend,” Bette said with a slight frown staring at Alice.
Alice sucked in a deep breath that sounded suspiciously like a gasp.
“Helena…” Alice gritted.
“I’m sorry!” Helena said sharply.
“Okay! How are we feeling, Bette? I’m Dr. Tafari I’m going to be looking at your leg. Hello ladies, would you mind giving us a minute? Brenda’s going to help you sit up now Bette.”
Alice nodded and turned on her heel grabbing Helena’s arm as she left the room. As soon as the door was closed she whirled on Helena and glared at her, anger fairly vibrating off her.
“What the hell was that? How come Bette doesn’t know me? And what the hell is going on where she thinks you’re her girlfriend?” Alice half yelled.
“She’s… Well her memory isn’t right. She doesn’t know who she is or why she’s in the hospital! Dr. Toms said something about this being maybe just a case of the brain catching up with her body. I mean it can’t possibly be–“
“Are you saying she has amnesia? Amnesia? Seriously? Are we–did we walk into a soap opera while I wasn’t looking? My God! And what? Helena why does Bette think you’re her girlfriend?”
“What?!”
Both women turned to face Tina who looked completely shocked at what she’d just heard.
“I can explain,” Helena said calmly straightening up trying to appear calm and in control.
“You’d better. Cuz how Bette thinks you two are together, that deserves a boat load of explaining,” Alice muttered.
Timing, Helena thought.
She had the worst bloody timing in the world.

Very interesting, indeed. So it appears that the amnesia has triggered some truth in Bette. How will she respond to Tina?
