'As you will have noticed before, Dr Hanna is back at work and to keep her load light, I need full cooperation from everyone and she will be in charge of cubicles today,' Connie informed, the team at the staff briefing.
'Who's on Resus then?' Asked Cal.
'I am, along with Lily.' Connie replied.
'Cal, I need you with me today if that's okay?' Zoe stated.
'Of course.' He smiled.
'And you Ethan.' She stated as she saw him looking confused, he simply nodded in response.
'Right everyone you know where you should be off you go.' Connie finished.
A few hours had passed and things had been pretty busy, slowly it was beginning to calm down once again.
'Right Ethan, can you take the patient in cubicle 4?'
'Sure Dr Hanna, are you okay?'
'Yes, I'm about to take a break, I just need sugar. So anyway she, came in with breathing difficulties and dizziness.'
'Right, well Robyn, can you do full obs and we'll go from there.'
'Thank you Ethan.' Zoe smiled.
'Rita?' Ethan called.
'Yes?'
'Can you make sure Zoe has a sit down and something to eat please?'
'Ethan I can look after myself.'
'Of course I can, come on Zoe!'
'Fine.'
Once in the staff room, Rita made Zoe sit down, whilst she made her some toast.
'Right here we go.' Rita said placing a cup of coffee and two slices of toast in front of Zoe.
'Thank you.' Zoe picked up the plate, she took one bite before she jumped up and rushed to the sink.
'Zoe?' Rita questioned
'Sorry.'
'Are you okay?'
'I'll be fine.'
'If your ill, you should go home.'
'I'm not ill.'
'Zoe you've just thrown up, there has to be something.'
'I'm not ill.' Zoe repeated, as she gave Rita a look, that said it all.
'Ohh, how far?'
'10 weeks.' Zoe smiled.
'Congratulations.' Rita beamed.
'Thank you.' Zoe said as she got herself a glass of water.
'How long have you known?'
'Since my accident, I was worried because of the impact my stomach took, but all I fine.' Zoe said, taking a sip of water.
'Ah, you and Max must be so happy.'
'I'll be honest I was worried for his reaction.'
'Why? Zoe he loves you, he's extremely happy, and wouldn't leave you for the world!' She reassured her.
'Yeah, he is amazing.'
'As are you!' Max said appearing at the door.
'How long have you been listening?' Rita asked.
'Long enough, I see we are telling people then?' Max asked
'Well Tess and Connie already know.'
'And Rita!' Max added.
'Rita, won't tell anyone, and I was sick, so I had to tell her.'
'Are you okay?' Max quickly asked
'She's fine, it's just morning sickness, extremely common.' Rita answered.
'Okay good.' Max smiled.
'It's been bad for a while though.' Zoe sighed.
'I'll have a word with Tess and Connie, and see what we can do to help, right I'll leave you two to it.' Rita smiled, and left the room.
'Why didn't you tell me about it?' Max asked.
'I didn't think it was important.'
'Zoe, please tell me in the future, I'd rather sit with you through it all than let you try and be strong on your own.'
'Okay, I will.' She smiled.
Max grabbed her hand, and pulled her close, placing a kiss on her lips.
'Come on, I'll walk you back to your office.'
'Thank you, Mr Walker.'
'You're welcome, Dr Hanna.'
