She shook her head, "Helena, I feel so sick right now. I wondered why Dylan didn’t come here with you. I thought she didn’t want to come. When I interviewed, your mother was one of the people I met with. She told me you would be entering the program. I was so excited about possibly working with you. She asked me how I liked the program. I told her I loved it. She told me if I ranked it number one, I could bank on being here. I thought it was great. You mother had always been so supportive since…"
"…since we got caught in a compromised position. She has always liked you. She often referred to you as her ‘other daughter’. Actually my mother loves absolutely loves you."
"She has been great to me. She helped me get the Peabody Foundation Scholarship when I needed money for college and medical school. She has always been supportive of me, getting through school and getting into the program here."
I laughed. She looked at me perplexed and asked, "What? Why are you laughing at me?"
"There is no Peabody Foundation Scholarship. My mother just wrote a check from her personal funds. I’m sure it’s whatever Carmen wants Carmen gets. That "scholarship" is the way my mother settles unhappy parents."
"Why would she do that?"
"Come on Carmen. My mother needed to keep you and your mother happy. Unlike some people who love the press, my mother hates any kind of press. Especially anything that might prove to be embarrassing to the family name." Without thinking I blurted out "My mother bought your silence with her fucking ‘scholarship’ fund."
She looked away and I could see her eyes well with tears. I realized I was incredibly insensitive in what I said. She fought back her tears then glared at me, "Your mother didn’t need to buy my silence."
I hit myself in the head. Fuck how stupid and insensitive am I. I got up from the table, walked around and turned her chair to face me. I knelt between her legs and pulled her close to me. "Carmen, I’m sorry. I just get crazy when it comes to my mother. You are different from the others."
She pushed me away and stood up to walk away from me. She turned back to look at me. The tears streamed down her face. She cleared her throat and said with a crackled voice, "The others? So what do you do, go around fucking young girls then you mother puts them through school."

I’m going to have some faith in the writer to see her way through this… cause if anyone can make this work… or not work it is you my passionate friend… love and hugs, JC
JC thanks for the vote of confidence. There is no doubt I will get through this unscathed.
Helena and Carmen are two of a kind….self-absorbed losers. They live in the moment and don’t care about anyone but themselves. When Carman made that comment about Helena being a traded up from Shane that was very shallow. They can rationalize their actions as much as they want to but the bottom line is their both whores. It’s a shame Bette isn’t more significant in this story because even with her flaws I prefer her more so then Carman and Tina.
I feel like an idiot when I re-read my comment I should have made not that the work and not work part was in no way about the ‘writing/writer’ but about the characters in this situation… love and hugs, JC
WARNING TO READERS!!!This is a story about personal growth over the period of a year. If you are waiting for a QUICK and EASY BeLena love story, this will not be it. I might suggest if that is what you want you stop reading and wait for the chapter called Finale. If Bette is the other lover is the story then you can start all over and read to see how they got there. Otherwise don’t torture yourself hating the characters and the writer as you wait to see what the final outcome is. The outcome is set. This is a very long complex story, taking place from July of one year to June of the next. We are still in August. There is much more story to go. Angst is what I write and this story I can guarantee you will be full of growth, angst and pain. GUARANTEED….
FINE!!! Angst and pain, bring it on! Would it kill you to include some graphic sex?
Squirly you have a rep for killing us and we keep coming back for more. I love coming home to a new chapter from you and would like for you to go tell your employer that you need more time off on account just that fact. I also think that if that good little Catholic girl is ok with her actions than I’m not going to sit in judgement of her, theres a time for being a martyr but I’m thinking if you got a chance to be w/Helena Peabody thats not the time. At least thier youth is not being wasted. Raqus on girly. Thank you, Md aka Oma
HIya there S, I had just read chicki’s latest chapter and now yours and let me say that I love both of them because there were emotions that were felt and dealt with on Carmen and Helena. I like how both women didn’t hide anything from one another, that they were best friends with benefits. I liked how Helena had to see how much she hurt Carmen when she said that her mother had paid for her education and well the rest of the story. It made Helena realize that she needs to becareful of what she says cause she hurts people when it comes to talking about her mother. Now I have no idea who Helena with end up with but S your doing a fantastic job here with this story!!
Hmmm…so I’m a recovering good Catholic girl who knows all to well the chronic guilt attached to my soul… but geez…I have to say I was hoping for a little more juicy interplay between these two. I was all worked up in the last chapter and so I was salivating to experience the date/evening. The rush to guilt by both of them left me rather cold. I hear you though – they are young and still identifying what their needs are in relationships. Also, they are immature in a lot of ways and so they will make plenty of mistakes. I’m certain we all made quite a few a long the way ourselves. That said, I guess this just means you need to serve up some really HOT Belena sex at some point. ;>) (And you thought I wouldn’t mention it in every comment!)
You know, I was thinking that those girls were crossing over some major emotional boundaries….so it was no surprise that Helena …in all of their sharing, comforting and….ahem…faux pas redemption techiques (lol!)…was feeling the birthing of something more than friends. I definitely appreciate them being honest with each other…and yes they are young, hormones are raging and stress is high…but for the sake of freedom, conscious and out of respect, please Helena have a serious discussion with Dylan. I know they are providing each other…. “support”, but I do wonder how all of this is gonna feel in the sobriety of the “morning”…Was it more than just “the moment”? What are they really feeling? Will Carmen begin to throw Shane in Helena’s face to get her? Will Dylan agree to an open relationship…go ballistic or swing through to “check” Carmen? Compelling considerations, but the real question is: Was there a video camera at Carmen’s to capture her little “I guess I feel like I traded up” comment? Lol! (dang Carmen, busted by camera again!). Looking forward to wherever you take us! PPS
Your story is complex and complicated but everything is explained w/a great deal of detail. You have command of the s/l and the characters. Excellent storytelling.
Carmen was really very generous to let that schmuck stay over. As she did, I have to say I’m rather distressed at the lack of detail the author shared with us about it. Yes, Helena needs to get some guts and address the situation. I can’t really blame her, they are all still young and learning, not just about medicine. I’m not sure that with their distant assignments that their commitment was ever realistic. That and the fact that with youth comes changes. Better they should deal with it rather than beat themselves (or each other) up about it.
I agree with funnyone. They’re too young and involved with starting careers to keep a long distance relationship going. It should end. PPS!!
