Incognito was the last word to cross Camilla Browne's mind when she stood lost in the middle of the East End with her brown suitcase in one hand and a map in the other wondering where the hell she was.
"Excuse me."
She pivots and turns in any direction hoping for someone to stop so she could ask for more directions. As the people pass a pregnant woman takes notice, not from her unusual height but her rather pink nurse's uniform.
"Nonnatus House is that way, up two blocks then down one."
"Right O."
Camilla flashes her great big smile the glasses slides down her nose and she absent-mindedly pushes them back up. But the pregnant woman pushes her pram in the opposite direction and with a quick glance back she eyes her suspiciously then turns the corner.
She starts on with heavy steps towards her future; yes she could finally see it now, a new life far away from the old one. Maybe living incognito is achievable through a fresh start and she smiles again in her awkward silly way as she approaches Nonnatus House.
Slowly, she raises her hand and rings that bell.
