BETTY'S LOST HER MIND
The next day they both came in, walking through the tube. She was walking backwards looking at him as she walked, then all the sudden "Betty! Betty, watch out" as she turned forward Betty hit a plastic wall piece that was temporarily put there by the shipping people. Betty hit the floor hard. "Betty, Betty, are you ok?" "Betty"
"What happened in here?" Wilhelmina burst in seeing Betty on the floor. "Is she ok?"
"Uh. I don't know. She's not waking up. We should probably go to the hospital."
"I'll come with you" Amanda said furiously. "Ok, let's go" Daniel said as he picked her up from the ground carrying her in his arms.
They were making their way to the elevator. "uhh." She breathed lightly. "Betty, its ok, you'll be fine."
As they got to the hospital, they took her into the examination room. After sometime the doctor came out, and Amanda and Daniel rushed up to find out what he was going to say "Is she ok?" Daniel said quickly. "Yes, she is fine, however she has temporary memory loss; she will recover in time. Just go about things normally, and she will slowly remember."
"Ok, can we see her?" Amanda insisted. "Yes, you can go in, but she may not remember who you are"
Daniel felt sick at the thought of that. Amanda rushed behind the doctor waiting for Daniel to catch up.
They walked in the room. "Hey Betty!" Amanda said sincerely. "Hi" she replied sweetly. "How are you, doing?" Amanda asked softly. "I'm good. Just a little tired, I guess." "Do you remember me, Betty?"
"Betty?" Amanda asked again. "I'm sorry. I…I really don't know who you are." She replied honestly.
"Well I'm Amanda; I am one of your best friends. We used to be enemies, but you've grown on me." Amanda replied trying to stir some ounce of memory. "Marc and I used to torture you." "We took pictures of you every day of your hideous clothes and posted them on a blog" trying to say anything to make her remember.
"Well then, I guess we had an interesting relationship. I'm glad we are friends now!" She smiled
Daniel was frustrated and decided he should go out and call Betty's family. He just left the room in silence.
"Who was he?" Betty asked curiously, feeling slightly sad he left without speaking.
"Umm…He's your…boss!" Amanda said slowly "your best friend…your boyfriend, Betty" She added somewhat proud, yet uncertain.
"My boyfriend?" Betty asked shockingly. "Ya, you worked together for years now. And you…he fell in love with you." Amanda felt somewhat guilty for telling her lies. But, technically those feelings were there, she thought. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to push the idea a little.
"Why did he leave?" Betty noted sadly. "I think he was just worried. He'll come around soon."
In a matter of 25minutes, Betty's family came to see her. "Hey Betty" "Hi" "I'm Justin, your nephew." "I'm Hilda, your big sis" she tried not to sound sad that her sister had no idea who they were at this moment. "Mija, I'm your Papi."
Betty just smiled. The doctor came in and told them that she could go home tomorrow and just treat her normally. She would eventually remember things.
Ignacio pulled the doctor aside "How long will she not remember?" he asked concerning. "Well, it really depends. Sometimes it takes days to weeks."
