College Blues II

Second Chances

An alarm goes off as a group of doctors run to the emergency entrance, wheeling in a patient to the emergency room. The doctors quickly went to work on the patient.

"Blood pressure 32 over 60 heart rate slow I want an EKG stat".

One doctor said to the group of doctors and nurses around him. The nurse checked the patients pulse and told him "I don't have a pulse doctor".

The doctor quickly pulled out two paddles shocking the patient back to life as he shouted out "clear"; all the doctors backed away from the patient as they waited for some sign of life.

Nothing happened so the doctor tried again "clear" still nothing happened as he tried once more "clear" and the heart monitor started beeping as the nurse checked the patients pulse "he's back doctor".

The doctor put the paddles down taking a breath, he said to the group of doctors around him "good job every one I want to keep the patients heart rate monitored"; he told them as another patient is reeled into the emergency room.

The doctor ran off to his next patient ready to save another life.

A shattering noise was heard through out the dinner as a customer yelled "out miss I didn't want mustard on this".

The waitress looked over to him while juggling a tray of plates as she said back "coming right up sir". She walked over taking the plate from him putting it on the stack with all the rest as another customer yelled out, while holding his coffee mug "miss what about my coffee".

She walked over to get the coffee pot as another table yelled out "miss can we get our check please where in a rush".

She walked up to the table when people started yelling at her from every direction "miss I've been waiting for my sandwich for over an hour". "Miss my food is cold"; "hey what about my sandwich"; "how about my coffee"; "what about our check".

The waitress turned saying to know one in particular "coming right up".

The doctor walked into his office as he told his secretary "okay run me through Janet".

He walked into the back office, as his secretary followed him saying "okay your 2 o'clock is now 3 o'clock, Mrs. Hudson is complaining of chess pains again, you've got the baker twins check up in fifteen minutes".

He shook his head in understanding, with his head buried in paper work as Janet continued "Dr. Stevens called he wants to do lunch you have tomorrow at four free do you want me to set something up". He looked up quickly saying "yes do that".

Janet told him "and Sandra's been calling off the hook". The doctor looked up at his secretary as he said "okay take a note Janet".

Janet quickly grabbed a pen and paper as she said "okay". The doctor looked at her and said "brake up with Sandra".

As she was about to write it down she turned to him "Darien if you brake up with everyone you date you'll never find someone".

Darien turned to the large window behind him as he looked out he told her "I know Janet and she's some where out there, I just haven't found her yet". Janet told him "yeah well maybe she's in New York"; he turned around surprised at her statement "huh?" As she told him "you have a seminar in two weeks in New York".

Darien looked down at the papers on his desk as he said "tell them I'm busy" She looked at him with a stern face as she said "it's mandatory".

He just laughed as he thought of possible excuses on how to get out of it "tell them I'm sick, tell them I have the flu, no the measles, no wait mono that's even better".

She gave him her stern face as she said "Darien" with not such a sweet voice. He gave into her just like he always does telling her "okay…okay I'll go but I'm not going to enjoy it".

She just laughed as she told him "I wouldn't expect you to, by the way this letter came for you" she said as she handed him the letter and walked out of the office turning quick to tell him "don't forget you have the twins in ten minutes". "Uh huh" Darien answered as he opened the letter leaning back into his chair.

The waitress fell onto a bench behind her as another waitress came over and sat next to her.

"I'm exhausted" she said looking to her friend who answered back "you should be you just worked two 12 hour shifts in a row I would be to if I were you".

Her friend gave her the best smile she could in her exhausted state as she asked "do you need a ride home" She shook her head "no I have my boyfriend coming to pick me up".

"Okay" the other girl answered as they stood up, then walked over to shut the lights off and walked out locking the door behind them.

As the one girl hopped on the back of her boy friends motorcycle she yelled out "you working tomorrow". The other girl just laughed "don't I always". "I'll see you tomorrow Serena" the girl said as she rode down the street on the back of her boyfriend's motorcycle. Leaving Serena yelling back "good night Mandy".

Serena drove all the way home to open the door to a trashed house. She walked into the living room where a little boy and girl were sitting watching TV while the babysitter was asleep on the couch.

The kids looked up saying "hi mommy, hi mommy". She walked over kissed them both on the forehead then sent them upstairs "okay go upstairs put your Pajamas on time for bed".

Both kids quickly stood up kissing there mother "okay mommy, okay mommy" as they ran up the stairs. Serena yelled up to them "I'll be up in a minute to tuck you in".

She turned and walked over to wake up the babysitter. "Shanece- Shanece, wake up".

Shanece woke up startled "oh Mrs. Terrington your back I'm sorry I must have dozed off for a minute".

Serena gave her a look knowing she heard this story far too many times "yes I'm sure how much do I owe you?"

Shanece gave her a smile as she said "you owe me from yesterday too" Serena shook her head saying "yes I know".

Shanece tried to figure it out in her head "let's see 12 hours with 10 dollars an hour would be 240 times two is 480.

Serena took the paycheck she worked so hard for and handed it over to Shanece "here you are Shanece".

Shanece quickly took the money putting in her pocket as she said "thank you Mrs. Terrington same time tomorrow" Serena looked at her as she said "yes thank you Shanece good night" as she showed her to the door.

After Shanece left Serena went upstairs to tuck in the kids. She pulled her daughters covers up as she asked "did you brush your teeth".

The little girl shook her head as she answered "yes mommy".

Serena kissed her on the forehead as she said "good night Rini" and walked over to the other bed.

She pulled her sons covers up asking "did you say your prayers" her son looked up at her with his wide eyes as he said "yes mommy" She kissed him on the forehead as she said "good night Jamie" then walked over turning off the light, she heard two small voices saying "Good night mommy I love you".

"I love you" she said back closing the door behind her.

Then going down stairs to clean up all of Rini and Jamie's toys that were thrown all over the floor; afterwards she went to the kitchen to wash a sink full of dirty dishes then going to the basement to put on a wash and fold the clothes.

Finally she went up stairs to double lock the front door and get ready for bed, ready to start the whole thing over again tomorrow.

Darien walked into his condo as he took off his jacket, tie, belt, and shoes as he untucked his shirt and mixed himself a martini.

Then he went to the living room to sit on his plush couch and put his feet up on the coffee table as he went through his mail reading it aloud "your invited to, your invited to, you've been excepted for, you've won, you can get this free, hey what's this. He said as he picked up a letter marked NYU.

He was about to open it when the phone rang and he put the letter in his briefcase and answered the phone "hello…oh Sandra hi…oh you called I'm sorry I missed you…yes I'll have to talk to her about that…lunch tomorrow…sorry I can't…the next day…busy…the day after that…sorry busy too…the day after that…Sandra I think we need to talk.

Beep beep beep went Serena's alarm clock as she rolled over turning it off. Then getting up to take a shower and get into her work uniform.

She went down stairs to put on another wash and fold the clothes. As she looked at the clock to see she was running late, she ran upstairs to get Rini and Jamie up out of bed and ready for school. Then coming down stairs to make them breakfast and watch them get on the bus. Finally coming inside to do the ironing, wash the floors, put another wash on, and sort out the mail. "Bill, bill, bill, huh what's this" she said as she picked up an envelope marked NYU, as the phone rang.

Serena put the letter on the table to answer the phone "hello…oh hi Tiffany…what do you mean where am I…I'm not late…no I'm not into nine…eight I thought it was nine…I'll be there in five minutes…I appreciate it…yeah I'll see you soon. Serena quickly hung up the phone grabbing her apron and keys as she ran out the door.

Darien walked into his office with a quick wave to Janet as she turned to him asking "how was your lunch with Dr. Steven's?

Darien gave a little chuckle as he thought about it then told Janet "it was good but the man just never shuts up he's like the energizer bunny he keeps going and going". Janet laughed as she said to him "the test results are back from Mrs. Dryer's blood test" then handed him the results.

Darien quickly looked over the information in the envelope when Janet turned to him and asked "Darien would you mind if I left an hour early today". Darien looked up acknowledging her question and said "no of course not any special reason for this".

Janet looked up at him beaming with pride as she said "it's my son's school play".

Darien looked at her surprised as he said "you have a son Janet I never knew that". Janet smiled at him as she said "yes Kyle he's eight".

After finding out this new information Darien quickly asked her "do you have a picture". Janet smiled up at him as she said "sure" then dug through her wallet pulling out a picture of Kyle and handing it to him.

Darien looked at the picture noticing the resemblance of Kyle and his mother he told Janet "he looks like you, he has your eyes" he said as he gave her back the picture.

Janet looked at the picture of Kyle saying "yes a lot of people say that" as she put the picture back in her pocketbook Darien turned to her and said "you know what Janet it's a slow day why don't you go take the rest of the day off and go enjoy it with your son".

Janet looked at him surprised Darien was being so generous she asked him "really". He just smiled at her and said "absolutely go enjoy your day". Janet couldn't believe what she was hearing as she said to him "thank you thank you Darien". He smiled at her saying "your welcome" as he walked into his office.

Darien went and sat at his desk and looked over the test results once more before putting them in his brief case, when he noticed the letter marked NYU. He took it out and read it "to distinguished student…yada yada yada…Alumni reunion…10 years…Darien thought to himself (wow has it been that long)… memories…yada yada yada…old friends…good times…next week are they kidding".

He quickly put a check in the no box as he thought back to the one person that made college bearable-Serena.

flashback

It was when they first met on the NYU campus Serena was on the ground crying when Darien put his hand out to help her up.

She was a little hesitant to take it at first but then she did as she smiled up at him and introduced herself "I'm Serena Terrington".

He smiled back at her as he said "I know". She looked at him surprised as she asked "how do you know my name". He smiled at her surprised she didn't remember him and said "I came from Seattle too- it's nice to see you again Serena or should I say meatball head".

Serena thought back to the last time she heard that nickname and her jaw just dropped as one name rolled from her tongue "Darien". He smiled at her as he said "it's been a long time Serena".

She could hardly believe this same guy, was the person who use to tease her everyday and call her meatball head as she looked at him and asked "hey what happened to you".

He looked at her confused. As she started asking "why are you being so nice how come your not teasing me and calling me meatball head".

He just laughed as he said "well I guess us non- New Yorkers have to stick together; besides I couldn't let somebody else tease you like that-that's my job".

She started laughing as she told him "now that's the Darien I remember".

another flashback

The last time they saw each other; Darien had just graduated he ran back to the dorm as fast as he could hoping she would still be there so he could say good bye.

He opened the door to see she was standing there waiting for him as she said "congratulations" He smiled at her and said "thanks".

She turned to him and said quietly "you came back" he shook his head "yes".

Then she smiled up at him and said "I knew you would". He smiled back as he told her, "I couldn't leave without properly saying good bye to you".

She turned to look at him and said "I'm glad".

Darien quickly started to say something when he was at a loss for words "Serena I umm". Serena tried to find the right words to say what Darien wanted to which came out something like "Darien I uhh".

He smiled at her as he said "I think that about covers it" She shook her head agreeing with him, "oh yeah". They both started laughing as Darien told her "I'll miss you Serena". She looked back at him trying to be strong and said back "I'll miss you too".

Darien came closer to her taking her hands in his as he told her "don't forget what I said no matter how far apart we are if you ever need anything…anything I'll be there" She smiled up at him as she said "the same for me".

end flashback

Darien went on the intercom as he asked, "Janet I need Serena Terrington's phone number before you go. She answered him back "sure Darien I'll get it right away".
