Nature or Nurture

Like all inhabitants in the Land of Dalembrine, the Maker created Foulkes to serve a single purpose, to play his role in bringing harmony for all. But in crafting Foulkes, the Maker proved to own a sense of humour. How could a discordant note fit into the symphony of life?

A twist upon a familiar nursery rhyme.

One Heart To Another
John's Story
 ©2010 Zoe Taylor

They say that when you receive an organ donation, the person lives on as part of you, but what if the donation was from your best friend? Would their impulses and compulsions become yours?

Would you be able to cope with the grief of their death, knowing they gave you life?

One of a pair alongside Christina's Story.

For Portia

Reprise - Conquered
Tell me, tell me how you knew about my heart
You see, see the things that no one else could see
I thought, I was doing fine until you turn my life around
With everything you'd find
Deep inside I thought that I had died

My mom just shook her head and said. “Don’t you ever look where you are going?”

Natalie smiled reassuringly. “When Ally called, she said it was really important that I meet you,” she offered in a friendly tone. Taking Andrea’s hand, I gently rolled her sleeve back. She closed her eyes tightly, clamping down on her bottom lip.

“Natalie, Andrea’s been having a really rough time back in California. She-”

“Oh my God,” Natalie gasped. She leapt to her feet, racing past Cynthia and stopped to kneel in front of Andrea, who by now looked like she might be on the verge of tears again. “Please tell me this isn’t what it looks like,” she continued in a more serious tone.

I couldn’t help but to hold her tightly and to kiss her, to try to do something anything to keep her together. I’ve known people like Shaya, she’s tough and capable and strong and amazing and like a lot of things that are tempered to be strong if you hit them the right way…

They shatter.

Bear was a lot of things but one thing I was very good at being was the professional tough guy. There’s a lot of f-ed up hurt little children in us tough guys. And from what I’m seeing with Shaya there’s a lot of the same pains there.

“Mrs. Townsend, there’s a lot that Andrea’s kept to herself over the last few months, but she’s ready to ask for help now. That’s what all this was about.”

She stared at me with a frown. “Young lady, if my daughter needs help, she should have come to me, not just jumped on a bus and run away from-”

“Mom, stop!” Andrea snapped back. “This is exactly why I didn’t come to you in the first place!” Cynthia clammed right up, staring down at Andrea. “Robin listens to me. She’s a GOOD person, and I respect her a lot more than I do you right now, and what you said is EXACTLY why! I’m not going back with you!”

Without warning, she shoved her mother away and ran away from her, right out the back door. I suddenly had visions of the time I got lost in the woods because I was emotionally distraught and confused. That was back in June, not November.

Allison glanced at me, but I shook my head. Enough people already knew about me. I wasn’t ready to add to that list just yet — neither Trent, nor Kathy.

“I know the name of a really good therapist. She deals with LGBT patients, and she’s treated both me and Allison after the Raggedy Man stuff too.” Okay, so I had been seeing Dr. Ketz before that horrible incident, but still.

Allison nodded. “Barbara’s REALLY good.” She suddenly cut herself off, staring at someone behind me. I shifted in my chair, glancing from Allison, following her gaze. Despite the change in hair color to a deep, rich auburn, I’d have recognized that vulnerable, sad smile anywhere.

I cringed when I saw Bill walk in. He was so hunched over and miserable looking! I've been watching him for weeks, and he's getting worse. And he won't talk about it! I'm probably his only friend, but he keeps a lot back from me.

"Hi Bill, how are you?" I asked.

"Fine." was his only reply. We used to talk a lot, but lately one word answers are the best I can get out of him.

I was walking around a park, the same park I used to come with my father when I was little. I went to the playground and sat down on the swing. It was a nice warm day, the skies were blue and there wasn’t a single cloud around. I was lost in thought when I heard a familiar voice that I never thought I would hear again.

“Maria promised to help you guys out, but since she’s in no shape to walk I’m pledging in her place.”

“Wait, if you’re here to help, why have you been avoiding me at school the last couple of days?”

She genuinely laughed. “I wanted it to be a surprise. Consider it my way of saying ‘thanks’ for… you know, forgiving me for being such an ass. Besides, we’re a team. We’ve got to look out for each other right?”
