“I don’t think it should be a problem,” I replied, walking back round the counter to check our order book, “Do you have any idea what you want for the menu?”
“Not yet, but maybe you could give me a couple of suggestions?”
I took out our brochure and handed it over to her, “There’s a list of the different kinds of food and desserts we do, if there’s anything special you might want, don’t hesitate to let me know.”
“Wow,” Tasha said, laughing again, “I still can’t believe it…so you own this place?”
“Together with my friend, Alice Pieszecki, she’s in the back. So, how have you been?”
“I’m ok,” she replied, “I mean, since the time when Leisha passed…I’m a lot better now. How about you? How is Bette?”
My expression fell at the mention of her name; I fiddled with my pen, trying to hide the pain which was washing over me again, “She…she passed away two months ago…”
“Oh my gawd, I’m so sorry.”
“No, it’s ok. Her body had some problems with the medication…like what we were told, it’s a hit or miss situation. She caught pneumonia and just…she hung on for as long as she could…”
“I’m sorry to have asked, please don’t be upset,” she said, noticing that my eyes had become slightly teary.
I smiled, “I’m fine…it just hurts a lot…you know?”
“I completely understand how you feel,” she replied, “But it does get better…eventually…”
“I think you understand better than anyone how what I’m going through feels…”
“I tell you what,” she continued, “I have to rush back to work now, but here’s my card,” she said, handing me her business card, “Maybe you might want to have coffee or something?”
“That’s very nice of you,” I replied, “But I don’t think I’m ready to date…”
Tasha laughed again, “No, it’s not a date. I meant it like…if you need someone to talk to…someone who can relate so to speak. Just give me a call.”
I ran my fingers through my hair, wanting to hide my embarrassment, “Sheesh, and here I am assuming…”
We laughed, looking at each other, “So call me, alright?” she said.
“I will,” I replied.
“I’ll see you, Helena.”
I watched her walk out of the shop before I looked down at the card she had given me. Tasha Williams. Maybe I might just give her call. Talking to someone who had gone through what I’m going through might be enlightening.
It’s just coffee, right? I doubt it would hurt.

Refresh… LOL… for old times sake… time to go and read… Love and hugs cuzzie… love and hugs… always and forever, JC
Was missing your writing, dear euni…that’s all I can say right now. Hope you understand. Thank you.
OMG Euni, I have tears streaming down my face…this chapter was definitely a three hankie one. Thank goodness Tina was able to help Helena start the process of grieving for Bette. Tasha may be able to really understand Helena’s pain. I hope Helena is able to heal. I can’t wait to see where you take the story from here…
“Mummy not coming home anymore, but I’m here, you still have me here. And I’ll take care of you Mama. This just broke my heart. And then you put the icing on the cake so to speak with “The tears trickled down my cheek as my fingers dug into the dirt. Now I find myself crying like a baby. You’ve did an excellent job kiddo. If your skills in writing this story is any indication of what you may accomplish in life. Then school should be no problem for you. I can see you going to the moon and back!
Time heals a lot of wounds,The fact you lost your soul Mate leaves a hollowness that will always remain empty, The touch,,the smells, they will always remain. Sometimes when the door is open at a certain time. You look up wanting to see the smiling face and its a friend. In your bed its cold and empty,yet you get up every morning and go about your daily life. thank God for children and family and friends. thanks
it still hurts. could not stop crying, my heart is broken. How hard it is to lose who you love and loves you back? It will get better but you will always remember and miss her Helena.
You know E, your gonna have to make me stop crying cause I don’t like to cry, but your chapters are very very good ;)
Amazing chapter. It reminded me a little the movie Practical Magic (I love this movie). It was beatiful! Thanks
well done, the way you capturedbthe emotion was amazing!! I think I am still in shock…but glad that H is getting back in motion…geez…I am still sad…can you write in a long lost twin sister for B to bring her back or will she have a guest appearance like Dana did as a guiding light…anyway, yet again WELL DONE!!!
I know from my own experience how elena feels right now. when you have to burry someone so dear to you, someone whom you loved so much, who was your soulmate it feels as if they burry a part of you as well.
I caught up on this story last night and had to come back in and comment. Great story, hard to read, but impossible to put down. I don’t come to tears very often, but this one did it, pulls at the heartstrings.
Its weird with Bette gone but…I just hope Hels dont die of a broken heart and shes there for many more years with Rebekah. And now she has Tasha to talk to someone to actually relate to, things many get easier through time.
