    Before the Fall – Six

    Bette smiled wanly and leaned back into her pillows her eyes drifting from Dr. Davis as her thoughts shifted.

    “So no more questions?”

    Bette shook her head.

    “Okay then. I’ll see you tomorrow, Bette.”

    “Okay.”

    Bette made herself turn back to the show she’d been watching as she contemplated his words. He’d told her this before and she’d been hesitant to believe it.

    The thought that she might never regain her memories was overwhelming. It terrified her on the most profound level. It would mean she’d be starting all over again in life. Thirty-two years gone and no way to get them back.

    Bette shuddered and closed her eyes.

    She didn’t like being alone and wished Helena would come back from making her phone call. When she was alone all of the things she didn’t want to think about wandered through her brain and would not leave her be.

    She had been trying to get a sense of who everyone was around her. To see who the people that meant the most to her were. She’d met them all again the day after she’d told them she didn’t know them. Helena had eased some of her fears by explaining the relationships she had with each woman.

    She was still wary. They would all start to talk about certain things and seemed to forget that she had no idea what they were talking about. It was hard for them to adjust she could tell.

    It didn’t help that she was in pain and irritable because of it.

    Bette opened her eyes and switched off the television. Even set on low the noise was giving her a headache.

    She glanced around her room taking in the large number of floral arrangements that had been sent from various people. The baskets that had been food centered she’d given away. She’d been amazed at seeing a fruit basket arranged like a floral arrangement. There was no way she would have eaten all the fruit before it went bad so she’d given it to Dana.

    I’m Bette Porter, she thought.

    She kept reminding herself of that.

    She owned a number of prestigious art galleries around the world. Her partner in these galleries was Peggy Peabody, who just so happened to be Helena’s mother. Helena hadn’t gone into much detail about that so she didn’t know how that had come about.

    1. Wow…Tina has a point. When Bette finds out what is going on that’s it…I love this story. Thank you for the 7 pages…I still want more. Keep posting.

    2. this is so intriguing…i wonder who will win, tina or helena or neither…it seems a coma can change a person’s enitre personality…maybe bette will chuck them all in…please post as soon as possible

    3. You know i love this story… and I can’t help but feel a little sorry for Tina. BUt everyone is talking like what if BEtte doesn’t get her memories…blah blah…BUT what if Bette does get her memories back…she will not be a happy camper knowing that she was quite literally taken advantage of…time will tell…

    4. Woah, emotional overload! lol. I think the Bette Porter we all know and love will come back in full force if she finds out that they’ve been lying to her. No wonder they’re keeping schtum! Can’t wait for the next chapter!

    5. Speedy, you’ve been one busy racer! ;) – 7 damn pages…oh mah goodnezz! I couldn’t read it all at one time. But, now that I’m done, I think that since Bette has just been awakened by Amanda, Tina’s on her way out the hospital, and Bette is not leaving until tomorrow afternoon means that Helena needs to march her pretty azz right back into that room, sit down, and tell Bette the truth. Memories or no memories, Bette is not detached from reality – she can tell that everyone is keeping something from her. Helena, along with the truth needs to tell Bette the reason behind the lie. I’d much rather see Bette pissed off now than pissed off later.

    6. I watched a TV drama before, where the husband had an affair with the mistress for YEARS. But then when he met a car accident, he completely couldn’t remember the mistress at all. Even when he saw the photos. Kind of sad really… although that can happen. In this case, I think that’s how Tina feels… I feel sorry for Tina, being the girlfriend and all that, but forgotten. I sense a war here.. It’s exciting, but I do root for Helena and Bette to be together… :D

    7. I’m with Pandamel I love this story.. God what a mess our girls are in. Perhaps Helena can tell Bette that they broke up and she was with Tina lately. So sad the Tina has known for years that Bette had feelings for Helena, everyone knew. Perhaps now is finally the time when no one is lying to Bette. Helena has always been Bette’s love. Its a part of her “embedded code”. Everyone is just finally admitting it. What a great story. Thanks for the early Christmas gift
