Chapter 4: A New Secret Friend
"You have a new private message" Cuddy read on her laptop screen. She had just checked on Rachel in her cradle, and when she saw her sleeping deep in her dreams, she decided to amuse herself a bit, it was only 9:50 pm after all. So she seated herself behind her laptop.
She had abandoned all that internet blind dates crap since the terrible failure she had with Don two years ago, she was even done with all the blind dates business. She had Rachel now, nobody's gonna take her away from her.
Since she had bonded with her, all of those terrible thoughts and fears about her ending up as an old lonely woman who has nothing but knitting and drinking té all día long has vanished.
So, she closed her old account and opened a new one, she told herself that it was just for mere fun, just like TV o anything else. Certainly she was amused about how her nombre de usuario attracted lots of eager teenage boys to get to know her.. but she only used it now to keep in touch with her oldest friends.

Nice photo, let me guess…you work there ??or your boss forced tu to make publicity for the hospital? Either way I like it. The light is good, the shadows fall in the right place, and I'm gonna stop pretending that I know a damn thing about photography! Talk to me Music, I'll let tu know about my expertise. o even medicine, I've enough information to keep me alive, o at least outside of your beautiful hospital… for exemple: drink chamomile when tu have a sore throat, and don't try to run with a cast on your leg!
She was surprised a bit, but she couldn't help but smile at that weird message. That Electric_89 really intrigued her, first of all, his message didn't contain any of the "Hello babe, wanna chat?" o the "OMG! U R so Awesome!!" that she used to get from the enthusiastic teens. She visited his profile, but she found nothing interesting, only that he's male, interested in music.
"Wow…" cuddy thought, "he really put lots of thinking in escritura his perfil page!"
She contemplated his nombre de usuario once again, well, the electric definitely showed that only a boy will choose it and the 89 wasn't very comforting either. But there is something about his message, she couldn't tell what was it, but she found it really causy and friendly. Maybe she could use a stranger friend as an escape from real life.

Hey! I'm glad tu liked it, but what made tu think that I work there? Maybe I'm one of those annoying people who likes to capture every árbol they see on the road. I don't know how I feel about exchanging private details, but I thank tu for your message it made me smile after a rough día of paperwork . which reminds me of a friend of mine who always tells me that I'm only good with paperwork, and that keeps me away from practicing my real job (not telling, no personal details remember!), I think he's right, that jerk is always right.
Anyway I don’t wanna annoy tu with my problems any longer, good night.
She hesitated a bit before sending the message, but then she reread it and pressed the button "send". Now it's too late to back off.
____________________
Wedensday has been one hectic day, Cuddy kept running after a hiding House all día long, but she finally made him do his clinic duty after some really threatening glares.
She had a board meeting, an Organ Transplant Committee meeting, and as it couldn't get worse House -again- stormed into her office, wanting her permission to do a brain biopsy on his latest patient with one argument only: HIS BRAIN IS ON fuego !
She sat behind her desk, canto the last board meeting report. She was really in a hurry, Rachel was waiting for her, and she really missed her, but she was satisfied with her work, she managed to solve all the problems of the day, but still, House even after doing his biopsy still hasn't found the answer. However, all she cared about right now was to go back inicial and hug and play with her daughter.
However, before turning off her laptop, she took a glance at her bandeja de entrada , it was now swarming with messages from this mysterious friend, and he really made her smile.
From: Electric_89
That guy seems really some smarty pants, and por tu calling him a jerk I think that he isn't your number one person, right?
And one question: are tu really one of those annoying people who hold the camera even when they are asleep??? If tu are, so that I can run and save my life!
However, I like Princeton in the winter, with all the snow covering cars and sidewalks. But stills there is some women who really drives me crazy with those high heels shoes that won't even cover their toes!! Can tu believe it? I mean I have nothing against high heels, but in the snow? Come on, what's happening to the world?
From: CurlyLi
Nothing is actually happening to the world, some women really need to dress nicely to work, but I think I got your point.
As for me, I amor the Fall, when tu walk and everything around tu is either orange, red o yellow. All libraries and bookshops are full of kids with their parents , shopping for the new school year. I'm not as lame as I sound, but I really can't wait to do the same with my kid.
And I'm NOT a photo-obsessed but if a moment deserves to be carved into my memory, then why not use that little gadget that annoys the hell out of you?
My turn in questions: what's your music? Since tu seem a música freak, like tu kindly told me in your first message?
From: Electric_89
Well, what's my music? That's a question, it seems that tu are too lazy to type: Like, listen to, play… stuff like that, and it seems that I have too much free time on my hands to type them like that uselessly.
Anyway, I try to keep up with everything, música can be my escape when life becomes too painful to handle. tu won't believe it, once in my work I had to deal with a very famous jazz musician, and since he was really grateful to me, he gave me his trumpet!
Nah, tu wouldn't believe it, but what the heck, I'm a show-off, I can't do anything about that sorrowful fact!
From: CurlyLi
tu really are a show-off, aren’t you? But if I believed tu then I wouldt say that I'm impressed, your job must be damn important then.
Anyway, I'm gonna apologize in advance if my message seems a bit snappy to tu today, but remember that jerk I told tu about? The one who's always right? Well, he's making my life a living hell!!
I'm really sorry again, but I needed someone to complain to… he won’t listen to the boss, he always think that the world evolves always around him. I won't bother tu with the details, but I think I'm having enough of his sarcastic comments, his harassment. And the worst of all, that when he wants to be mean, he really knows where to poke the sharp stick, as for when he wants to be nice ( rare moments, believe me ) tu start wondering if this person is the same as that narcisstic pain in the ass.
Well, no más complaining I promise, but I had to relieve my chest from all of this.
I can't thank tu enough for putting up with me.
"hey Dr Cuddy!" Lilia's voice came to cuddy from the door frame, and it really took her por surprise.
"oh god, tu gave me fright there Lilia!" dicho Cuddy.
"oh sorry, I forgot the paper bag I use to cover my horrifying face." dicho Lilia sarcastically. "I was going to ask tu how was your day, but I think there's no need.
tu were glowing there." She continued with a suspicious look, but yet with a smile.
Cuddy had an ashamed smile on her face, she did the quick math in her mind… well, Lilia was the closest person around to be her friend, and she could really use someone to open up too. And she didn't have the big mouth her uncle has, thank god they only shared crazy ideas.
"well," started cuddy," I meet someone through the internet, from the princetonlocal.com to be exact."
"oh no Lisa ! not again…" exclaimed Lilia, but then an idea hit her, could it be? No, no, that was too good to be true. She shook her head, and was going to say something when Cuddy interrupted her .
"No, no, it's nothing like that… he's just a friend, and a good one, he's smart and funny…."
"He's maybe not even a HE !!!!" dicho Lilia while closing the door to make sure that this conversation remains private.
"don't tu think that this thought never crossed my mind?? " asked Cuddy, with a slight tune of annoyance in her voice now. "I know that there is a possibility that he might be some serial killer o some lost psychopath, but he's not…actually I don't really care, because I'm not gonna fecha him o fall in amor with him. As I told you, he's
just a friend, an escape from real life."
"Hmmm, he sounds cool."
"He is."
"What's his name, what does he do?"
"His name is Electric_89, and no personal details. That's our agreement."
"Oh, that's good. But the 89 isn't very good, I'll be sorry to see tu in prison for sexual harassment to some minor, since all of them tend to put their birthdates in their usernames" dicho Lilia teasing, with a smirk creeping on her face.
"Oh stop it." dicho Cuddy laughing." First of all, our exchange has nothing sexual, and second, he's really mature. And NO ONE is going to prison, but I know a certain person who has ER shift for the siguiente 36 hours."
"well, that was mean, reminding me of the cruel reality. Anyway, I'm gonna drink a coffee bucket, need anything??" sighed Lilia while heading towards the door.
"thanks honey, I'm going inicial now, good luck on your first shift."
"thanks, good night."
"good night."
enjoy !!

How Cuddy has changed
When does amor become something we need, rather than something we want? amor was seen as something special a long time ago. Now amor is what we are expected to have with us everyday of our lives. amor is common currency when tu are a teenager, but turns to worthless pennies the older tu get. Do we not care about the substance of what amor was and not what it has been made into today por commercialisation from American cine and televisión commercials and soap operas? Only when we experience amor for real, can we comentario and judge others who are in Love. amor means something different to everyone. Not two people’s feeling of amor is the same. Why do we generalize, rationalize and compartmentalize Love? amor is and will continue to be an enigma. Only a handful of people will ever unlock it and witness its true beauty and essence. The essence we all crave.
Love.
Love.
“WTF? Since when did she get here???”
