First Year- Chapter 20
I contemplated the amount of money I was about to inherit. Mother’s revelation about the amount I will inherit was still shocking. I was only told it was a “couple of million”. To hear it was nearly $190 million was a total shock. And this was only 1/3 of the total trust. I would get the second third when I was 30 and the last of it when I was 35. I guess they didn’t want me to tell Dylan what the amount was. Just in case she was shady. Whatever! Just in case. Just in case. I was getting calls from the financial planners managing the trust to see what I planned to do with it, asking how they can help me invest it wisely. I felt overwhelmed by it all and as has become customary recently, I started to cry. It seemed any thought of Dylan triggered my tears. I quickly wiped my tears and refused to give into it. I worked on pulling myself together so I could go back out and finish my shift. I thought I was all alone. I didn’t hear her come up behind me but she cleared her throat, “Are you okay?”
I startled and turned to see Bette standing behind me. I blushed as a patted my eyes dry, “You always seem to catch me at the most inopportune time.”
“I came back to put away my clothes. I ran out of here to get ready for that code, I remembered I just left my clothes lying about.”
That was quick, what happened?
“I decided to let Jenny run it.”
I supposed my eyes must have nearly bugged out of my head, she laughed so hard at me. “Just kidding, he was pretty cold and dead when they brought him in. I pronounced him.”
I laughed back and shook a finger at her, “You really had me there for a minute. That was a good one.”
She looked at me and changed her tone and became very serious. She asked softly, “Helena, I know it’s probably none of my business, but you just seem to be upset so often recently. Is everything okay with you and Dylan?”
I tried hard to hold it back but I decided to be honest, “We broke up.”

Hello My Most Passionate Friend… hehe… I’m not sure its going to be a 60 chapter story either… I’m thinking more along the lines of an 80 + chapter story… with many sequels to follow… Second Year… Third Year… Forth Year… Sixth Year… I’ll be here for the whole ride… Love and Hugs, Always and Forever, JC
You know the first time I read that Helena would have her heart broken twice. I just assumed it would be from a romance but now I’m thinking it can be from any type of situation. I hope Bette isn’t the cause for Helena’s second brake and tell Helena’s secret. Sometimes people divulge information without meaning harm. Bette could tell her boyfriend which could eventually get back to the clinic. Helena needs to take a page from Bette and keep a low profile. She can still associate with people and try to have fun but one of the best advice I’ve gotten was if you don’t want something repeated keep it to yourself. It’s time for Helena to step-up and take control of her life. It’s nice to have friend to lean on when you have problems but it’s also nice to figure it out on your own. Don’t mind my rants regarding Helena. She can be dense at times but if I wasn’t enjoying the story I wouldn’t keep coming back….right. :-)
Oh dear Helena is going to have to move into the heartbreak hotel if she’s not careful. I have a sure fire way to steel my heart but cannot share it here becasue the white coats would be coming for me. You know however many chapters you write I’ll follow. Thank you, Md, still missing Raques Oma
Hello… Yep its me again… I think part of the notion of heartbreak is a really deep one and can be analyzed from many vantage points… for heartbreak to really set in one must have an emotional connection with someone… and at this juncture I don’t feel she has that with Bette… if Bette broke her confidence it would more likely be a betrayal seen in Helena’s eyes as someone trying to use her to elevate herself up the proverbial ladder… maybe when and if they develop a relationship beyond the guarded natures that is being a resident… and I’m only going by what I have read and those people I have interviewed in the past with regards to this… but for me I’m thinking the second ‘heartbreak’ that Helena might suffer is one that all Doctors, residents, nurses and the likes suffer at one point or another… a bonding connection to a very special patient… one thing that they need to learn and most learn the hard way is the emotional separation that is necessary to survive… so I am thinking that this is where the second heartbreak comes into play… maybe its Dana… maybe its someone else that captures Helena’s soul… or maybe it is a traditional heartbreak from someone she falls in love with… cause we realize and understand that Helena is a woman that can fall in love very easily… and often… hmmmm… I’ve got to go back and check my notes *wink* *wink* love and hugs, JC
Wait a minute…wait a minute… I thought the break up with Carmen was a mini-heartbreak… and then Dylan of course. That makes two by my count. I believe that means that I will get my wish and Bette will come around and save Helena from her misery. (See I’m keeping the hope alive, Squirl). Thanks for this wonderful chapter! So many delicious Belena moments I was dancing a happy jig. Oh, methinks the spaghetti is beginning to look a little cooked. Helena needs to see a therapist… really and truly. She’s a mess with a capital M. She wouldn’t be breaking down and making herself vulnerable if she had someone to talk with — maybe a visit to Dan is in order? I hope she stays strong against Peggy’s efforts to make contact. While Peggy’s efforts may have been well intended, they definitely caused her daughter A LOT of pain. As always looking forward to more…
Two great chapters! I don’t know where to focus my comment. Hmmm well, there were so many great emotional moments…just the way we like it! Btw, I see you worked in the armgasm! lol! As always, thanks so much for sharing. PPS
I am so caught up in your story! I am selfish and can’t wait for the next chapter.
When Helena said that she had been let down lately. I could understand why. First it was Dylan not being strong enough to believe in them. Second her mother not taking her relationship seriously. And third in herself for not being able to resist temptation of the flesh. I could see that would be alot to deal with, plus one of her friends maybe dying. Yes that would be alot to swallow. As for Bette I think she saw what Helena may have seen. That’s why she became uncomfortable. What’s that saying “The eye is the window to the soul” or something like that. So can we say soulmate? Great update by the way.
Okay, I detected a little awareness in H that she may have contributed somewhat to her problems with D…that’s good…but like the show H has to realize that she alone is good enough, and while she may have a big libido, when it comes to love – baby, either it is or it ain’t…kinda like that so g if it don’t fit, don’t force it just relax and let it go…with B she doesn’t really know if there is interest so there is a good opportunity for them to become friends and get to k ow one another…though I suspect the locker room moment opened something in B which is why she backed away…I hope asks her out for that “run”. Anyway, like the pace of the story and I think I am up for 80 chapters!!! Cheers.
Haha! You got snow, we got horizontal flakes that didn’t add up! If it’s any consolation, we’re expecting -10 windchills tonight and I’ve got a headcold. Helena needs to get a grip. On herself. On her millions. And come to terms with her mother. Hmmm…I wonder if Bette’s sudden discomfort and subsequent distance come from something within herself she wasn’t ready for? At least she learned something about dressing for the occasion.
Your writing abilities and the ease at which your story enfolds is amazing. Never boring always intriguing. Now Bette may have found that she has an attraction to Helena. Whether one is gay or straight, it is obvious Helena is a stunning woman.
I didn’t assume Bette felt something for Helena. Knowing Helena is a lesbian maybe Bette thought that Helena was falling for her and it made her uncomfortable. Bette knew she couldn’t give Helena what she wanted so she distanced herself from the situation.
