Tina, Chapter 14
Not a word is spoken aloud until we reach the fifth floor. The doors open with the same ding and Mary leads the group out, again holding the door. I find my feet and legs heavier than ever. My stance is planted firmly in place as the others file out around me. As they each exit the elevator, they turn to look at me. Theyre worried about me I know what theyre thinking. I can see the pity in their eyes. But I dont care. All I care about right now is seeing Bette. I dont care how bad she may look I need to see her.even if I cant fall into her arms.I need to see her.
Mary leads us down a wide corridor and through a set of double doors. Before reaching the second set of doors, she changes direction and heads into a room. This must be the waiting area the doctor was talking about. The chairs look plush. Like the people that wait in here wait a long time. Theres a sofa in the far corner near the window. The dark blue fabric appears soft and inviting. A television hangs high on the wall near the entry doorthe screen flickers with images.the closed captioning scrolling along the bottom. Just under the television is a desk. Another young lady clad in pink sits behind it.
May I help you? She offers in the same tone previously set by Mary. Her name tag is emblazoned with her name Lori.
Mary answers her before I catch onto the question, these are Bette Porters friends and family. Dr. Anderson in the ER asked me to walk them up.
Porter, you said, Loris question is aimed at clarification as she files through a few papers. Here it is.shes not quite settled yet. Ill let the nurses station know youre here. Then when theyre all set, someone will let you know.
Thanks, Lori, Marys response is brief as she turns to the door. Just before leaving, she turns back to me and says, I hope she makes it. Then she leaves before I have a chance to process her concern.

Well well. Miss Perfection, I see you have definately been putting alot of time and effort into this story, and it is brilliant. I hope Tina is prepared for what she is going to see.

You are doing such a great job on this story. Most cities do have A HATE CRIME UNIT. Some small town dont so the use the next lagest city. Hope Tina doesnt freak out when she see Bette. It can look pretty bad.in the beginning. thanks.

omg common..waiting is killing me!! PLEASE, post soon!!
i dont understand allyour laws and all or the medical talk very muchbut i would really like to send Bette a beautiful flower arrangement and a get well card!!
I think you have done an excellent job of portraying how the thought of losing someone permanently puts other issues into perspective.
If they don’t have a hate crime unit then they usually have a special victims unit that hate crime would fall under.
Hey Perf. you better not let anything happen to bette. I will hunt you down. If you have to kill someone kill jenny or candace, not bette.
