Realizing – Chapter 14
“I’m doctor Stephen O’Connor.” He says and reaches out his hand.
“Hi, Bette Porter.” Bette replies and shakes his hand.
“So, you were in an accident this morning? Tell me about it.” He asks.
“Sure. It happened outside the Planet. Me and my three year old daughter were on our way to the car on the other side. I let go of our hand for two seconds, and in that little moment she managed to run out into the street in front of a car, that was approaching. I ran and grabbed her so I was between her and the car, I got hit in my leg and pushed a few feet away.” Bette says.
“The baby, is she okay?” The doctor asks.
“Yes, she’s fine, just scared.” Bette replies.
“Okay, good. Well, if you’ll jump on this table here, I’ll check your leg out, take your pants off too.” He says.
“Okay.” Bette replies. She takes off her pants and then get up onto the table.
“What kind of pain is it?” He asks.
“It’s like muscle pain, but a little more intense.” Bette replies.
“Okay.” He replies and starts examine her. After about 2 minutes he’s done.
“So? You have an idea what it can be?” She asks.
“Well, it doesn’t feels like anything is broken. My guess is that the muscle has been hit and you maybe have a small bleeding there that pressure the area around it a little.
“Okay, so do we do anything about it?” Bette asks.
“No, just rest, when you sit, elevate the leg, keep it high.” The doctor says.
“Okay.” Bette replies.
“If it doesn’t get any better after a week, come back.” He says.
“Sure. Thank you doctor.” Bette says and shakes his hand. She leaves the room and walks back to Tina and Angelica. Tina stands up once she sees Bette.
“How did it go?” Tina asks.
“It’s probably just a bleeding in the muscle. I have to keep it elevated when I sit down. And don’t walk so much.” Bette says.
“Oh, that’s good. I thought it might’ve been a small fracture or something.” Tina says.
“Yeah, me too.” Bette replies.
“Dinner at the Planet?” Tina suggests.
“Sure.” Bette says.
They walk out to the car and drive over to the Planet. Angelica is big enough to know where she is and once outside the car, she grabs Bette’s hand. Bette looks down and smiles. She lifts her up. Angelica hides her face in Bette’s neck. “It’s okay Angel, nothing is going to happen.” Bette whispers and strokes her back softly. Tina walks beside them and she has her hand on Bette’s small back. They enter the Planet and all head turns. The word has gotten around about the accident. Kit sees them and rushes over.

Sounds like Bette ought to be icing that sore leg! Thanks for the update; it will be sad to see them say goodbye to the gang, but fun to see how things go in London.
I’ve noticed that when I have an accident I’ll have some pain at first, but the next day it’ll feel REALLY bad. Bette got lucky that she just got a bad hit and not a fracture.
I hope that’s all there is wrong with Bette’s leg. The year will go by quickly they’ll see. It’ll seem like they never left…and when they come back it’ll be better than ever right? Right?
I sorta feel bad for Alice because Bette was implying that they need to rebuild there relationship without her, which may be true, but I think Bette would have been a better friend if she had said she was going for the money. This way, Alice and Shane won’t realize later that they may have been the cause of Bette and Tina leaving. Beyond that, I love this story and look forward to the next chapter. Thanks for your effort with this story.
Good chapter and I agree with skycaptain and sad to see they say goodbye to the gang but time will go fast and they will see them again. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Hope that Bette is ging to be Okay. She need to ice it down and stay off of it. thanks
Love every chapter you write – please write some more. Post soon
Glad that Bette is okay as far as the leg is concerned. Alice and Shane took a lot better than Bette or Tina expected. Great chapter.
hopw theres lots of visits between the girls. But maybe Bettes leg is more serious and they don’t go. Can’t wait for the next chapter.
Great chapter again, just love reading your story. Thanks for sharing.
I hope also that there is not going to be any complications with Bette’s leg. I think in regard to brigbeach’s comment, it is solely Alice who has to know and comment on every single thought and feeling and action anyone else has..not Shane, and it would be nice if she ever realized that maybe if she minded her own business, people wouldn’t have to leave. Please don’t let there be complications from the accident!!
its good they’re gonna start again alone, sometimes friends and family can be your worst enemy even when they love you, and it stops them being so dependent on bette and tina…nice realizing here…PPS
Hey Lauren, Good to see that Bette was not severely injured by the car. I liked the way that Tina was there supporting Bette through it all; harks back to their previous incarnation. And brilliant to have them finally tell all the gang. I loved the way their family reacted; sorry that they were leaving but understanding that it was for their best. Please contnue soon. Your Loyal Fan.
is good to know that Bette hasn’t anything serious, i like it so much this story continue please
