Taking chances: Prologue
It had been 17 years ago since my parents died, at the time I was four years old. My parents and I were walking back home after visiting my aunt, when we heard a growl coming from the dark alleyway behind us……
"Esme, I've got a letter for you. It's from the Forks Hospital" I was pulled from my thoughts by Jacob Black. After my parents deaths Jacobs father Billy Black invited me to live with him and his family on the Indian reserve, with the Quileute tribe. They had been good friends of my parents and since I had nowhere else to go, I accepted the offer.
"Thanks Jacob" I replied as he handed me a dark brown envelope with the address of the Forks hospital on the back. We were the only ones on the beach today, normally the place was crowed with students, especially in the weekends.
"Open it!" Jacob was really excited about this letter, maybe even more then I was. Carefully I opened the envelope and unfolded the letter that was inside.
"What does it say?!" Jacob asked me impatiently as he tried to look over my shoulder. Jacob was two years younger then me. Over the years he had become my best and only friend.
"Dear miss Platt" I started reading out loud. "We are happy to inform you that you have been excepted for your internship at Forks Hospital" Before I could finish reading, I was interrupted by Jacobs screams of joy.
After a few years of living with the tribe I decided that I could not spent my entire life dwelling on the past. That's when I decided to study medicine, I wanted to be a nurse so I help people.
"That's great Esme!!! Wait until my father hears about this!" Jacob danced around me for a while, his long brown hair floating behind him, and then he took off. Probably to tell his father Billy Black about the good news.
After a few hours more, sitting on the beach and watching the ocean I returned home. Billy was waiting for me outside the small house made out of dark wood.
"I heard the news from Jacob!" Billy announced as I walked towards him. A year before I came to live with Billy, he had an accident, I asked him about it many times, but he refused to tell me what had happened. Over the years he had learned to except the fact that he would never walk again. And he was now perfectly happy with his silver wheelchair which made it possible for him to move around.
"That's great" I mumbled. For some reason I wasn't that excited about it. It was just an internship nothing more. Just something I had to do before graduating.
"You don't have to go if you don't want to" Billy said. For some reason he wasn't to happy about me leaving the reserve. Everyday I went to school he made Jacob walk me there.
"I do want to go, I'm just a little nervous" I signed, it's true I really was nervous.
"Well it's just for a few weeks, so I suppose that's ok" He sounded like he was trying to convince himself more then making me feel better.
"I guess so" I replied. It never failed to amaze me how Billy and Jacob looked a like. They had the same eyes, skin color and long dark brown hair.
"They are only making you work there during the day right?" He asked me after a while. I could swear I heard concern and maybe even fear in his voice.
"Yes, only during the day as long as I'm an intern" I answered. Billy seemed to be satisfied with that answer. I hugged him before going inside and up to bed, tomorrow was going to be a long day.
Tomorrow was the first day of my internship at the Forks hospital.
