Emma was walking down the hall back to her office after seeing a patient. A patient who is agorophobic and was freaking out being in public. As she walks back into the office of her supervisor, she sits down and opens the file to begin her case notes. As she is writing, she hears a knock on the door from out in the hall. Suddenly, she looks up and it is Dr. Lu Delgado, Dana's partner at RHWC.
"Hi, can I help you?"
"Oh hey, I was looking for the Dr. Is she not in?
"Yes, she is in but is with a client. Can I take a message?"
"Yes, hey, if you have a pen handy, let me write her a note and she can come down when she has a chance"
Emma hands her a note pad of paper and a pen. Suddenly, she reads the name tag.
"Hey, you are Dr. Delgado!"
Lu looks up and smiles.
"Guilty! Hey, I have not seen you before, are you new?"
"Yes, I am doing an internship here for school. My name is Emma"
"Okay, you are Dana's sister?"
"That would be me. Hey, aren't you her partner?"
"Guilty again!"
"So, how long have you been her partner?"
"For a couple of years now. She is one tough cookie, I tell you what"
"Do you get along with her?"
"Oh sure, we get along fine. Our clientele is a little different. Before I came here to RHWC, I had a clinic in the neighborhood. Well, it was sinking fast so somehow, I managed to get into this place. Dana, on the other hand, her clientele is the "it's great to be ME crowd".
"Kinda like Dana herself"
"Well..I am not going to talk bad about her but like I said, she is one tough cookie"
"Well, try being related to her."
"Well, that I am not. I can only imagine how hard it would be to live up to her example that she has set"
"Wow! You know me well. So, you are Dr. Delgado?"
"Oh call me Lu, I do not get into the fancy name stuff"
"Okay, works for me"
"Well, I need to go and check on my son. He works in the cafeteria and I need to get him to his dad's for the night"
"You have a son? One that works here?"
"Yeah, his name is Marc and he is working in the cafeteria"
Suddenly, Peter Riggs, the Alternative Medicine RN walks in and hugs Lu. She turns around and hugs him back.
"Hey beautiful"
"Hi yourself! Oh Peter, this is Emma Stowe, Dana's sister. She is interning here in the Psyc Ward"
Peter quickly glances at Emma and says hi and leaves. Emma is a little taken aback by his rudeness.
"Well, HE seems to be nice"
"Emma, he is just shy. You have to get to know him before he will open up. It was nothing personal"
"So, are you two going out?"
"Yes, we have been for a while now. We have been working together for ages and we were just friends for a while. Then, I had a bad experience here with the guy who was the Chief in the OR. He has really helped me through some tough times"
Suddenly, the phone rings. Lu says her goodbyes and Emma takes the phone call. After leaving a message for the Dr., she walks down the hall to find a file of a client coming later that the Dr. wanted her to talk to. As she is walking down the hall, she is approaching Jerkson's office and hears him and Nick in a heated discussion. Jerkson is giving Nick grief for getting back with Dana.
"So, Bianciavella, who do you think you are?"
"Sir, I do not know what you are talking about"
"Sure you do. Office romance. Have we not been through this before?"
"Sir, I know but we do not see one another at work. We are in two totally different areas.."
Suddenly, Emma stands outside the office to catch the whole conversation. She has her head pressed against the wall.
"Look, I do not pay you a fine salary to come up here..."
"Dr. Jackson, I can promise you that..."
"Nick, WHY do you insist on doing these things?" Jerkson interrupted.
"Excuse me?"
"We have talked about office romance before. Dr. Stowe is one of our finest Dr.'s on staff and in this part of the country. What she does NOT need is a love sick puppy following her around all over RHWC. I am warning you now"
"Dr. Jackson, I.."
"Break up with her, I mean it" Jerkson warns.
"Why? So YOU can have her"
"What I want is of no concern to you."
Emma sees a couple of orderlies walking down the hall so she moves away from the door. She goes to the file room, grabs the file and as she walks back down the hall, she sees Nick storm off to the stairs. He flings open the door and lets it crash with a loud "BOOM" which could have rocked anyone's world.
Emma continues to walk down the hall with a skip in her feet. This day is too good to be true...
Review me! Review me! Thanks Much!!
