Reconciliation Part 7
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes – aah!
When she walks, she’s like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes – aah!
In the midst of her joy she began to talk to herself. “She will probably break your heart. Why are you going through this? Why are you getting your hopes up? Do not lose you’re your head and your heart? Don’t do it. Just stay cool. Just play it cool. Don’t get involved. Don’t fall in love.”
But the songs and beats and the kiss kept running through her head. She touched her lips and sang again, “and when she passes each time she passes I go aah.”
Her thoughts were interrupted by her phone ringing. She looked at her phone, “No caller ID”. She picked up the call, thinking it was Raquel and answered, “Did you change your mind?”
There was silence on the phone. “Hello?” queried Helena.
“I’m sorry. I thought I would get your voicemail. I didn’t expect you to pick up. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have called. ”
“Dylan?”
“I couldn’t sleep. I was thinking about…I thought I would leave you a message. I didn’t expect you to answer.”
“How did you get my number?”
“It’s on your business card. I picked it up from the restaurant. I didn’t mean to disturb you. I shouldn’t have called.”
“Why did you call?” Spoke Helena, angry that her fantasy was disrupted.
“I shouldn’t have.”
“But you did Dylan. Why did you? What do you want?” Helena demanded as her tone became angrier.
Dylan sighed. This was her chance. She needed to grab the bull by the horn in order to begin to reconcile what happened between them. “I would like to talk. I think we need to talk.”
Helena sat quietly not knowing how to respond. After some time had passed Dylan asked, ”Helena, are you there?”
helena answered softly, “Yes. I am here.”
Dylan breathed a sigh of relief that the door was still open. “I’m really sorry about what happened. I need to, I would like to apologize to you personally. “

Helena needs to swallow her pride and face Dylan. She’s only kidding herself thinking all she wants is a one night love affair. Helena is a romantic and she should cut Raquel loose before she gets hurt. I think as long as Helana keeps running from Dylan and how she feels she’ll never have a healthy relationship.
Wow! I just got caught up and am absolutely loving the compelling stories you’ve been telling. If they do anything as intelligent and complex as this with Helena next season, I will be beyond pleased. Lil Ms. Raquel has her own drama..ummm hmm…that is so much like life. I love it! PPS
Helena and Dylan really needs to talk.Dylan did hurt Helena,yet she did return the pictures and money, Last but not least she did send her a DVD but Helena didnt look at it. If the keep on running,they will never have peace. thanks
One of the many things I love about your stories is that you allow the reader to get into the heads and hearts of your characters. There is so much to them under the surface and although you write the sex scenes well, they are so much the better because of the richness of the actual story. I do think Helena needs to be able to forgive Dylan in order to move on with her life, but Dylan needs to try everything before she gives up.
You know-I’m not sure if Helena is nursing a broken heart, a broken ego or a busted ass over Dylan. Was she truly in-love with Dylan? Personally, if I was Helena I’d feel like Dylan was harassing me at this point…and doing so to assuage her own guilt…I think Dylan has left her ‘need to talk’ a little too late…but who knows, its your story & Helena might just fall again…but whats that saying about ‘fool me once’????? Great stuff. PPS
I can only agree with all the others : Hel’s needs to get her act together and give Dylan a chance to explain no matter how hard it is. She obviously hasn’t found closure on her relationship with Dylan yet and maybe when she hears her out she might find that closure and move with her life (maning the Brazilian) pr she might realize she still loves Dylan very much and is willing to give her a second chance. Looking forward to ore.
Squirl, you make me think poor Helena is like one of those little paddleball games with the ball bouncing off the string getting wacked over and over again. Don’t know if Helena would feel better listening to Dylan or not but can someone at least get her a beer. Thank you, Md
Thank goodness Dylan took “the bull by the horns” – I was beginning to become disgusted with her nonchalant actions. As for our main lady – she needs to open her heart – as painful as it is – if she is to truly move forward. Obviously she still has feelings for Dylan or she wouldn’t be struggling so successfully. Meanwhile Helena is playing with Brazilian fire – this is indeed intriguing. She knows it and the Brazilian knows it as well. I wonder who is going to get burned? Or will they both?? Loving your character development, Squirl! I agree with Lobo, discovering the complexities of the characters is what makes the SL so much more meaningful. Hope you are able to post more soon. East
