It's a Mondler Life…what would happen if Monica Geller would have never been born? An accident causes Monica to realize how much she has had an effect on the people in her life. A Friends Christmas story..
Monica Geller Bing sat down in her living room. She was exhausted. Two twins are enough to take the energy out of anyone. Plus Chandler had let Joey stay with them over the holidays. Those two were worse than a couple of kids, with their leering Baywatch marathons, all night poker games, and Joey's eight meals a day. She sighed. Eight days until Christmas to bake, wrap, decorate, and clean. She climbed to the top of the ladder and wondered why wasn't Chandler helping her.
"Everyone always expects me to do everything. Monica make Thanksgiving dinner. Monica wrap the presents. Monica make Rachel like me. Ohh all everyone does is use me . You know what sometimes I wish I had never been born because no one would miss me at all." she thought.
Monica lost her balance and fell off the ladder. The only sound that could be heard was her scream as she fell. Chandler and Joey ran to the living room.
"Mon? Mon?" Chandler said. He tenderly brushed her cheek as she laid on the floor. "Oh my God, Joe, I think she fell and hit her head." He noticed that there was a cut on the side of her head. "She must have hit that table when she hit the floor. Oh this is all my fault." Chandler said as he held his head in his hands.
"Well maybe we should take her to the hospital," suggested Joey.
"Yah think?" Chandler sarcastically said.
Chandler leaned down and picked up Monica. "Joe you go and get the twins. I'll call Ross and Rachel and they can meet us there. I hope she is going to be alright." he said as tears formed in his eyes.
Meanwhile in her own mind, Monica was waking up. She looked around and noticed she was in a room that was only filled with light and shadows. "Oww my head." she exclaimed . In the room was a woman who had bright blonde hair and a shimmering gown. She had a determined look on her face.
"So Monica Geller, you want to know what life would be like if you had never been born." the lady said.
Monica noticed now that the lady she was talking to looked just like her good friend Phoebe.
"Okay I am having one hell of a dream. Suddenly I wake up and I am in the middle of It's a Wonderful Life. Phoebe what's going on?" she exclaimed.
The lady explained, "I am not Phoebe I am….."
Monica shook her head, "I know Regina Philangie."
The lady corrected her, "No, but what a cool name. I am an angel with no name but you have decided to project an image to associate me with. I can be anyone you want. So if you want to call me Phoebe that's fine. I am here to show you Monica that everyone loves you and their lives would be a mess if you had never been born."
Monica said sarcastically, "Good luck."
Phoebe lifted the hem of her gown and within seconds they were in the living room of her parents house.
"That's just great, I know they would be better off. My dear mother could have just lavished all her attention on her dear son and not had to bother with a fat daughter."Monica said as she crossed her arms.
"Ahh but the story is just starting." Phoebe stated.
Chandler sat in the waiting room with a coffee cup in his hand. Monica had been taken upstairs to be given a cat scan. She still had not woke up. Ross and Rachel ran into the waiting room, eager to find out what was going on.
"Well how is she?" asked Ross concerned.
"They are doing a cat scan now because they are worried because she still hasn't come to. I should have been helping her. It's all my fault." he cried.
"Don't worry Chandler she'll be fine," assured Rachel as she rubbed his back.
Joey sat over in the corner and played with the twins. This was great. He loved playing with his nephews and nieces. It also eased Chandler's mind to know that Jack and Erica were taken care of. He just kept shaking his head. This was his nightmare before Christmas.
Monica walked into the familiar living room. She noticed the pictures on the wall. They were all of Ross.
"See I told you things haven't changed much." Monica said as she sat down on the chair.
She heard her mother's voice calling from the kitchen, "Ross honey dinner." Monica looked over and saw her brother coming down the stairs. But it wasn't the Ross that she knew, her mouth dropped.
