The Secret Life Of Casualty.
Chapter 481.
"Mum" Grace ran in to the ED, after being in America with her father, for quite some time.
Connie turned, that was one voice that sent chills down her. The voice she hadn't heard in so long. She slowly turned, sensing all of her staff's eyes on her, not wanting to be seen as vunerable, she snapped. "Get back to work"
"Come on Gracie, " Said Connie, putting a hand on the 12 year old back as she lead her in to her office.
The 12 year old rolled her eyes. "Mum, Gracie's is a kids name, it's Grace"
"Well, you'll always be Gracie to me, " Said Connie as she opened the door to her office. Grace sat in her mums swivel chair and span around. "Stop that please, Darling."
Grace pouted and put in her earphones, while Connie busied herself with answering emails from Henrick Hassen and completing paperwork. But she was soon disrupted by a knock at the door.
"Come in, " Connie called, waiting to see who would enter.
The handle to the office was pushed down and the young blonde stood in Connie's office, in front of her desk.
"Ruby what can I do you for?" Connie asked.
Ruby cleared her throat. "I could look after her if you wanted?"
"Don't you have a job to do?" Connie retorted.
"I'm on a break. " Ruby replied.
Connie turned to her daughter. "Gracie"
An eye roll from her daughter which Connie ignored. "How would you like to spend some time with Ruby?"
Grace pulled her earphones out. She looked interested. "What do you do?"
"I'm a paramedic" she replied.
"See you later mum, " Said Grace, standing up and grabbing her earphones, before following Ruby.
"Bye darling"
Ruby headed to the Ambulance Bay, after getting Grace a drink from the vending machine.
"This is the ambulance " Ruby said, showing Grace inside.
"What's this button do?" Grace asked.
"It puts the sirens on, " Said Ruby, switching it on so Grace could see.
The girls eyes widened. "Cool. "
Ruby led Grace to the back of the ambulance. "Whats this?" She asked, pointing to a white board.
"It helps paramedics transfer ill patients" Ruby replied, as she stocked the ambulance.
"Grace, can you put this away for me, please?" She asked, handing Grace a bag of saline.
"Where does it go?" Grace asked.
"Up there " Ruby said as she pointed to a cupboard where the fluids were kept. Grace opened the cupboard.
Ruby looked at her watch. "Grace, I'm going to have to take you back to your mum"
Ruby opened the back door, watching as the 12 year old jumped down, Ruby locked the doors.
"Have a good time, Darling?" Connie asked as Grace went back to her office.
Grace nodded. "The best mum. "
"Thank you Ruby" Connie nodded.
Ruby smiled. "Anytime, Mrs Beachaump. "
I'm pretty happy with this, considering I've never really written Connie's daughter, hope darcey enjoyed it.
