“Good,” he replies. “She’ll need just that kind of support to recover in any measurable way. She may never fully recover, but she’ll have a better recovery the more support and encouragement she has.” Taking a file from the nurse, he scans the front page and looks back at me. “Why don’t you just go in and sit with her? Talk to her and just try to keep her calm. We tore her stitches open doing CPR and I’d like them to stay closed for good this time. Someone will be here soon to take her for those tests.”
“Thank you doctor,” I say, turning back to Bette’s room. Approaching the door, I steel myself for the worst of Bette’s temper. “Okay Baby, the doctor said someone will be here soon to take you for those tests,” I try to sound as cheerful as possible as I resume my former seat. BEEPBEEPBEEP.The broken tone, once again, has a calming effect on my nerves. We’ll make it through this. We’ve been through a lot in the past eight years and we’ll make it through this too. As soon as the doctor gets the test results back he’ll be able to tell us if Bette will recover or not.
“Tina, what’s that beeping?” Bette’s words break into my thoughts. “Tina, are you still in here?”
“Yes,” I say, taking her hand, “I’m right here.”
“What’s that beeping sound,” she asks again.
“It’s the machine monitoring your heart,” I tell her.
“Can’t they turn it off? It’s annoying the ***** out of me.”
“If you knew what I’ve been through in the past few hours you wouldn’t say that.”
“What is that supposed to mean?” Bette’s question catches me off guard.
“Huh,” I ask her.
“What you just said. What is it supposed to mean?”
“What did I just say?” What DID I say? Was I just thinking out loud or did I respond to something she just said?
“You said that if I knew what you went through I wouldn’t feel that way.”
“Feel that way about what?”
“That incessant beeping sound, Tina. Can’t you hear it?” Her tone finally snaps me out of my trance.

I just read all your chapters a few days ago and I liked it. I’m glad you’re back.
Hi! I´m glad that you are back…great chapter…please post soon again !!!
Well well well, look who it is! I blinked in disbelief when I saw that you had posted, perfection!! Hehe I hope that what you’ve experienced in the past seven months haven’t been too bad. Remember, what doesn’t kill us only makes us stronger. Thanks for coming back to us! I’m sure that writing will be a great stress reliever. There’s definitely nothing like your style of writing on the site, and I’ve really missed it. Is Bette having a stroke?! I hope not. B&T aren’t the only ones freaking out here lol
Your back! Yeaha! I had to do a double-take when I saw this – I didn’t even have to re-read any of it. Another fantastic chapter (and by the way I enjoyed every other one too)
Seems like Bette is still in deep trouble and could Tina be in a bit of trouble herself with the cute doc? Bring it on LOL
my apologies ladies…I’m dealing with the end of my term and finals right now. Exams will be over the middle of next week and I’ll put in a LOT more time on the fanfic. Thanks for all the comments amd I promise I won’t keep you hanging as long as last time.

Welcome back! I knew I recognized the author and of course the story. Of course, I had to go back to review a couple of chapters before proceeding onto this new one. You have been sorely missed, Ms. Perfection. Please don’t stay away too long again.
