Chapter Four
Dave's Diary--Entry 2
Dear Journal,
Remember how before I said that I notice the little things about people? Well that couldn't of come out in any better way then today. There is something terribly wrong with Abby.
She had twirled her hair around her finger so much that by the end of the day the whole left side of her head was curlier then Lizzie's. And it's not just the fact that she twirled the hell out of her hair today...oh no it's a whole lot more. She's been dodging Luka left and right.
Deb and I were busy treating this guy who had fallen off of his bicycle when she sought to find refuge in the suture room.
"What's the matter Abby?" Deb had asked. Abby had said it was nothing and that she was just looking for a patient's chart she had misplaced. But I knew that it was a lie.
How do I know you ask?
Because just this morning she jetted into Exam room 1 when she saw Luka coming down the hallway. I happened to be in there with Chunni and Lucy and I remember when Chunni asked her what the matter was she gave her the same excuse.
So either Abby left the part of her brain that assists her in remembering where she placed things at home today or my theory is right on. I worry about that girl sometimes. She seems like she is carrying a whole heck of a lot on her shoulders. More then she should be.
Other then the weird problems with Abby, Liz and I had to attend to a patient today who claimed he was Spiderman. Dr. Weaver about punched me in the mouth when I asked him if he could spin me a web.
I guess Carter got some sort of daring bug in him today because he asked me if I would ask Lucy out for him. I guess that's as daring (and as close to asking Lucy out) as he's going to get. I, being the gallant gentleman that I am, did.
It was sort of awkward. I think only because when Lucy first came to County as a med student I was kind of crushing. On her that is. Hey it's not like it couldn't have worked between us. We're pretty close in age but other then that I think that's all we have in common.
She's more of a shy, keeps to herself kind of person where I still want to be able to party and live the night life. So anyway Lucy said yes and their on for Friday night. I kind of like the title of 'The Malucci Matchmaker'. But in this case I guess the match was already made and I just helped it along a little. So between Carter and Lucy's sudden romance and Abby's recent avoidance of Luka I have my own little soap opera going on.
Who needs 'All My Children' when you got 'County General'?
