"Look I hate you both…. Never talk to me again!!" Brenda said almost crying then she walks away from Dylan and Kelly. They have just told her about their summer fling and that Dylan chose Kelly over her. She was so crushed, her boyfriend cheated on her with her bestfriend. She didn't know what to do, she was walking without knowing where to go, and she found herself on the beach starring blankly at the ocean. She couldn't believe what just happened, her one great love choose her bestfriend over her, that really breaks her heart in zillion pieces and she doesn't know if it can be mend again.
She didn't notice the person walking towards her, and handed her a handkerchief, Brenda stares at the handkerchief and to the man who's handing it to her, she recognize him and she wasn't too sure what he's doing there but she could really use some company now. She accepted the hankie and wipes her tears, "thanks..." she softly said
"You know, whatever it is your crying about it's not worth your tears…" he said
"You don't understand.." Brenda replied
"Well knowing him like I do, I'm sure that what he did to you was pretty big… you know I've know that man since we were kids, and I can tell you he's not really good in handling difficult situations…"
"But that doesn't give him the right to hurt me like hell..." Brenda snapped at him
He looks at her trying to figure out what she means, he doesn't know why but he really felt sorry for Brenda "ok… wanna tell me what happened?" Brenda didn't answer "you know I have all my afternoon free if you want to talk…"
"You know I may just take you up on that offer, just not right now". Brenda stated.
"Ok well, why don't I give you my number, call me sometime when your ready to talk" he said as he passed her a fresh hankie with his digits on it.
"Thanks" Brenda walks away still crying, though wondering just why this man cares to know what just happened between her, Dylan, and her once best friend.
When Brenda came back to their house, Cindy was preparing for dinner, "hey honey, wanna help me set the table?" Cindy called
"I'm just gonna take a shower mom, I feel…. Yeah I'll be right back…" Brenda said without even looking at her family.
Jim look at Cindy who shrug her shoulders, "she'll come around… she always talks to us…or at least to Brandon…" Cindy said assuring Jim
Brandon came home after an hour from his work, "hey mom… hi dad…" he greeted his parents "whoa, what happened? I know that looks…" he said when he noticed that his parents face.
"Brenda came home, I know she's crying…" Jim said but he was cut off by Cindy
"we don't know that Jim… she didn't even look at us.." Cindy explained " she came home, and I asked her to help me set the table but she said she'll just take a shower and will come back, but it's been an hour, and yeah she did look like she's been crying…"
"wait here.. I'll go talk to her…" Brandon went upstairs, he couldn't hear anything except from the water obviously kept it open to hid her cries. They do that all the time since they were kids, he softly knocked "Brenda its me…" he got no response, he knocked a little louder this time "Brenda talk to me.." still no reply, this time he's worried "Brenda, I'm gonna open this door now…" he said nervously, he's mind kept telling him that something happened to her sister. "ok that's it Bren.." he said opening the door, he was outside the shower curtain, "I know you're here Bren… come on talk to me… I'm your big brother remember?" he said trying to tease her, but still no reply, he went to open the curtain and he was so shocked to see Brenda unconscious at the bathtub "oh my god Bren… " he quickly held his sister "Brenda come on.. wake up…" still no sign of Brenda being ok, "Mom, Dad!!" she shouted.
After 20 minutes, they were all at the hospital waiting for the doctor, David and Donna came first when Brandon called the gang.
"hey.." Steve called when he arrives "what happened?"
"we still don't know…" Brandon said obviously afraid of what could happen to his twin sister
"we're all here for you Brandon... Jim, Cindy… we all knew Brenda, she can pull this through…" Steve said trying to give hope for the Walsh family
"where the hell is Dylan?" Brandon asked
"uhhmmm.." Donna said
"what is it Donna? Do you know something we don't know?" Brandon asked
"I was talking with Brenda before this happened, she was crying and she told me.." Donna started but Andrea came in and greeted the whole gang and the family
"ok go on…" Brandon said
"she told me that Kelly and Dylan went to your house earlier, and they had talk, Dylan and Kelly told her that they had a fling that summer when we went to Paris, and that Dylan chooses Kelly over her…" Brenda finished the story when Dylan and Kelly came in
"you bastard…" Brandon said rushing to Dylan and hit him "look what you did to my sister… my baby sister… you promised me you'll never hurt her… look where she is now…"
"Brandon cool down…" Jim said, he too wanted to hit Dylan but he knew better than that
"look you two… I think Brenda wouldn't want to see you here…" Brandon said " and you Dylan never talk to my sister or even look at her… and that means no talking to me either…. You know how much I hate to see my sister crying, and now she's here, we all don't know what happened to her… now go before I can say anything else that you don't want to hear…" Brandon said then he turned his back to Dylan and Kelly.
Kelly tried to talk to Donna and Andrea but they both shook their heads, "guys.. you heard my son… please go… I wouldn't want to say something you don't want to hear too so just please go…" Cindy said, Cindy who's normally calm, couldn't control her anger.
Dylan and Kelly sighs and walk away from the group. Brandon hits the wall with his fist, he couldn't believe he let his bestfriend hurt his sister like that. Jim blame himself too, if only he was more receptive of Dylan and Brenda's relationship, if only he wasn't that hard on Dylan maybe this wont happen to his daughter. the gang watch the Walsh family worry to no end, and they felt guilty themselves too, especially David who knew this all along, but there's nothing more they could do, the least they can do is to pray for Brenda's condition to get better.
Suddenly the doctor came out of the room, "family of Ms. Walsh?" he asked Jim, Cindy and Brandon came towards him
"I'm the father, this is her mom and her brother…" Jim made a quick introduction
"ok, your daughter is stable know.."
"oh thank god.." Cindy said in relief
"but what happened doc?" Brandon asked
"well, as I can see, she is deeply depressed, she hasn't eaten anything at all, she's been crying, she has no one to talk to and it all gets into her so she fainted… by any chance you guys knew what made her depressed?"
The family nodded "ok, what I suggest is that she stay here for at least this night to monitor her heart condition too, people who undergo a lot of stress and depression are prone to heart breakdown, and give her something to eat anything will be ok, I recommend you to give her, her comfort food, friends and families can see her now and I also suggest you guys talk to her, or make her talk about what happened… otherwise she'll be ok… I'll see you guys tomorrow…"
"thanks doctor…" Jim said, the doctor smiled and walk away from the family
Brandon fill in the gang about Brenda's condition "if you want I can go buy mega burger, pie and ice cream…" Steve offer
"that would be great Steve… thanks.." Cindy thank him
"you guys go ahead see Brenda, we'll wait here…" Andrea said
"thanks chief…" Brandon said
Then the Walsh family headed to Brenda's room leaving Andrea, Donna and David at the waiting room.
At the peach pit
When Steve came in, he saw Dylan and Kelly, he ignored them and went straight to the bar.
"stev-o!! here for dinner?" Nat greeted him
"nope.. I'm here for take out… 1 mega burger and 2 pies…" Steve said
"hey now you sounded like Brenda…" Nat joked
"actually it's for her Nat, she's in the hospital right now… the whole gang is there.."
"what happened to my laverne?" Nat asked worriedly
"uhmmm she fainted while taking her bath, doctor says she's under to much stress and going through depression… but she'll be ok… doctor wants her to stay over night…" Steve said, he knew Dylan and Kelly were close to him.
"Steve.." Kelly tried to talk to him
"give my love to Brenda and Brandon… I know that guy is going through a lot too… tell Jim and Cyndi that I have them in my prayers… and tell Brenda that her uniform waits here…" Nat said handing Steve his order.
"Steve.." Kelly spoke again
"not now Kel, Brenda needs to eat…" Steve said, he didn't wanna be so harsh on Kelly, but he couldn't help but to have sympathy for Brenda, no matter what Kelly and Dylan will say, they were still wrong for lying and cheating on Brenda.
Steve went out of the peach pit leaving Kelly and Dylan.
Back at the waiting room
"I can't believe this is happening.." Donna said "I can't believe Kelly would do something this big... And Dylan would ever hurt Brenda this much…"
"Me either… I thought those two would stay together forever…" Andrea said
David couldn't speak a word, he felt so guilty he knew all along about Kelly and Dylan, he wanted to tell Andrea and Donna bout it now, but he knew Donna wouldn't like it, he opted to stay quiet.
At Brenda's Room
Brandon, Cindy and Jim came in, they saw Brenda staring blankly out of the window.
"honey?" Cindy called for her attention, but she continues staring outside "honey, we're so worried, and we're glad you're ok now..."
"Brenda, doctor says you have to stay here over night… you scared me Brenda… I thought I'm gonna loose my baby sister… I thought you promised me that you'll never scare me like that again huh?" Brandon tried talking to her
"Brenda if you want to talk we're all here for you…talk to us sweetheart…" Jim said, but Brenda's still staring at the window, but this time tears came running down from her eyes.
"Oh honey… it's ok…" Cindy hugs her daughter, Brenda felt her mother's tears on her shoulder, and this made her look at her, she wipes her mother's tears, still not saying anything. Then she goes back on staring outside the window.
"Brenda come on… talk to us… honey, don't ever think that your alone in this… you have me you have us… " Jim said, Brenda looked at him, her eyes says everything she wanted to say to her father, she's hurt, she's angry, she felt alone and everything she's feeling that time, Jim went to hug her daughter too, after a few seconds, Brenda pulled away from her parents, she looked at Brandon who seems to read her mind.
"ah mom, dad I think she needs to be alone, I'll stay with her don't worry… I'll call you guys if anything happens… leave this to me mom, dad… I wont let my sister suffer more…" Brandon said, Brenda gave him a weak smile
"ok.." Cindy said to Brandon, she turned to Brenda again "honey I love you… always know that ok? And it breaks my heart ten fold seeing you like that… so please be well soon Brenda… I love you so much…" Cindy said still crying
"sweetheart, I'm sorry for all of this… I'm sorry this happened to you… I love you my daughter… please talk to us, if not us at least talk to anybody…" Brenda nodded to her father
Brandon walk his parents out, they went to the waiting room where the gang were still there. "we're heading home, you guys please help Brenda… she needs you all…" Cindy said
"we will Cyndi… don't worry…" Andrea said hugging Cindy for comfort
"thank you guys… remember to call us ok?" Jim said to Brandon
"yes dad.. drive safe.. and mom, I don't want you to get sick too, please try not to worry too much, I'll do anything to get our Brenda back…" Brandon said hugging his mom
"come on guys…" Brandon showed the gang the way to Brenda's room
The gang slowly entered the room, Brenda was still crying and still staring outside the window.
"hey Bren.. the gang are here…" Brandon said
"Bren I bought you mega burger, pies and ice cream!!" Steve said, he knew Brenda would want to eat ice cream
"thanks Steve… but I'm not really hungry, thanks guys for being here… but I really don't wanna talk about it… you guys probably knew what happened.. and I don't wanna talk about it… I'll be fine… all I need is a good night sleep… then I'll be in school tomorrow and back on my usual stuffs… so don't mind me… I'm ok…" Brenda said, the gang could see no emotion of her face, as if she already convinced herself that she was ok, and now she have to tell the gang that she's ok.
Donna went on Brenda's side "are you sure Brenda? If you want I can stay here with you…" Donna offer "you know we'll talk we'll eat ice cream.. I'll go get my pop corn!!"
Brenda gave her small smile, "as fun as it sound, I don't think I can stay up long, I mean I'm still exhausted…"
"oh.. I see.. well maybe next time… but Bren, remember I'm just a call away ok?"
"I know.. thanks Donna… thanks for everything.." they hug
"hey you.. you're too beautiful to be confined here… so better be ok soon.. ok? And i'll buy you more ice creams and pies and burgers!! And Nat said that your uniform's waiting for you… so get well soon…" Steve said, being the usual funny Steve
"thanks Steve…" they also hug
"Bren.. you know you can talk to us ok? We're all here for you… " Andrea said hugging her next
"yeah we're just here for you.." David said awkwardly but he also hugs her
"ok guys… thanks… but I really wanna rest now…" Brenda said "you can go home too, I'll be fine… I can take care of myself, and besides from the way I see it, I'll be asleep till you come back tomorrow morning… so just go and get some rest too…" Brenda said to Brandon "I mean it…"
'why do I love this stubborn sister I have?' Brandon thought "ok… but remember if anything… I mean anything happens call me" Brandon hugs and kisses his sister
"I will…" Brenda said
"get well soon Brenda…" the gang chorus
"thanks guys… drive safe…" Brenda said then the gang headed out.
