“It isn’t fair. Not to the girls, not to Tina –shh..- and Angie, not to you, and most certainly not to Bette…” She was going to blow his head off at the mention of Tina but he expertly calmed her down enough to finish his pleading. They were all pleading these days and to her.

She hated the fact that everyone was increasing the weight on her shoulders. Already she felt as if her body will literally break down at the overwhelming sense of responsibility over the current care of her baby sis, she didn’t need their input on everything. It was the last thing she needed because she saw how her sister had to face all those pressure from Tina, their friends, and inevitable her daughter during those really murky period. Kit knew she couldn’t take it because after all isn’t Bette the strong one?

Bette didn’t expect it to happen that way. Not this fast. No. After learning that she lost her memory due to her unfortunate ordeal a week ago, she was left with questions. Days would go by and she would get little to no answer.  It just added up to her frustration thinking about all those unanswered questions. Kit was a little unwilling in filling her on certain aspects of her life. She was both relieved at the grey area and frustrated over her vulnerability. On one hand, she liked that not everything was already set and defined- as far as Kit would share with her.This id due to the fact that Bette is fearful of losing control over herself in the attempt to try emulate her previous self. She kept wondering though: Was she involved with someone? No, because Kit and Angus had been the only ones there for her…  Where are her parents? Her father, Melvin is dead but how about her mother …

It was the awkward silences in Kit’s replies to her questioning that answered the most.

It was then when she decided not to know. If it is meant to come, it will come.

And true enough it did. That very night itself she found herself wishing she knew more but at the same time feel the dread as the images played out before her.
