    Before the Fall – Four

    “Okay,” Helena said in her normal voice.

    “About regular stuff,” Alice continued on in the same whisper. “You know…that’s supposed to help. When you talk to them. When they’re in a coma.”

    “Yes I know, Alice. I do watch Lifetime.”

    Alice laughed then covered her mouth with her hand guiltily.

    “God… I just don’t know what to do,” Alice said removing her hand and talking in her regular voice. “How to…act you know?”

    Helena nodded her eyes trained on Alice.

    “You can let everyone know that I’m flying in Dr. Davis. He should be here this evening. And Dr. Tafari says that Bette’s leg seems to have broken in a manner that won’t need extensive surgeries. And when Dr. Davis gets here I’m going to have him consult with Dr. Toms so we can—“

    “Helena! Breathe. Here, sit down. You gotta be exhausted. I know you’ve been on the phone non-stop. What you’ve done? It’s amazing. I mean…Bette’ll really appreciate it. We do. I know that Shane’s been…acting all bitchy but she’s been really freaked out about this. With you leaving it sort of left a void here. So um…you know thanks for doing all of this.”

    Helena crossed her arms over her chest and nodded.

    “Well if you all had the means you would do the same. Look I’m going to go get some coffee, okay? Would you—“

    “No! I’ll get it. You sit down. Seems like we’ve all been monopolizing Bette here except you. Talk to her. C’mon, Helena.”

    Alice rose and gestured to her seat.

    Helena reluctantly walked over to Bette’s bedside. She took the seat and sat in it stiffly.

    “Okay I’ll be back,” Alice promised as she walked out of the room.

    Helena glanced down at her hands and then took a deep breath before she looked at Bette. Actually looked at her and saw her bruised and battered face. Her skull was wrapped in gaze where part of her head had been shaved to perform the surgery.

    Her broken leg was in traction and her wrist was not broken though severely sprained.

    She looked so…small.

    Broken.

    “I think…I don’t know what to do with myself, Bette. You pushed, pushed, and pushed until I was gone. Just like you wanted. And now this. What am I supposed to think about this? I can’t have caused this. It’s not my fault. I did what you wanted. What you’ve always wanted. But the thing…the thing that keeps us connected. It keeps pulling me back.”
