Disclaimer: With the exception of Emma Stowe, I do not own these characters. Whoopi and the gang do at Lifetime and Strong Medicine. I am just borrowing them and promise to return them soon.

Dr. Dana Stowe was on cloud nine. Things were really looking up for her. She and Nick decided to get back together, her mother was in remission from her breast cancer and the most exciting news, her little sister Emma was starting her intern work for graduate school at RHWC of all places. Also, she and Nick were discussing the possibility of having a baby. PLUS, a grant was found for her breast cancer research. Who could ask for better luck?

Dana got off the elevator and went to see Jerkson. She wanted to talk to him more about her sister coming and wanted to make sure that everything was right on schedule. As she entered his office, she found him sitting on the huge black leather couch. After knocking, she came in and sat beside him and found herself sinking into the couch.

Good Morning Dana, what can I do for you.

Well Bob, I do not know if you remember or not but my sister Emma will be starting here today at RHWC.

Yes, I know...

Well, where will she be and what will she be doing?

Dana, I think that it would be best if she work closely right now with someone in the Psychiatric Ward.

Dana, well yes, she is here to intern as a Psychologist. Makes perfect sense to me.

Well good, I am sure she will do well here. Her grades are excellent and has started some research of her own. Maybe it will benefit RHWC someday.

Bob, I know. That is not why I am up here.

Jerkson gets up and walks over to the mirror on his wall. He is working on his hair with his fingers, something he does quite frequently. Afterall, what else does a narcassist do?

Well, what is it Dana?

Bob, I wanted to talk to you about Emma.

What is there to talk about?

Well, Emma is not like me exactly...she is somewhat shy and a little hard to get to know. I mean she is a great girl, Charm school grad, debutante and the list goes on and on. She has just never grown out of her shyness. Please, just go easy on her, okay? She is here to learn afterall.

Dana, relax, she is a big girl and I am sure she will do fine. Now, I have a board meeting this morning and do not want to be late. Will you come back later and see me?

Bob, I will tell you now. Nick and I are back together. We made up a couple of days ago.

Jerkson stands there in silence. He is stunned as he has really liked Dana for quite some time. Despite the fact that he is married and has children, he was glad that Dana and that loser Nick had split up. He had been sending her cards and flowers as a "secret admirer" and Dana never suspected it was him. However, hearing this, Jerkson is NOT happy at all.

Dana, you did WHAT?

Bob, I felt it was the right thing to do. I really love him. I know you do not approve, however, I cannot help myself and the fact that I love this man with a passion.

Dana, please reconsider, think about what you are doing..

Bob, I have. I have thought long and hard on this. Anyhoo, I need to go. I have patients coming in and I want to be ready for my sister who is coming today. You are a good friend Bob but with Nick, it is electric.

Dana stands up and walks out of the office. Jerkson decides that he needs to do something. Nick and Dana cannot be together and if he has any say, they will not be together much longer. As Jerkson collects his materials for the meeting and walks out, he feels a plan developing in his head that will have them apart forever...

Please Review, Thanks (
