"Leah you'll be late for work" called Roberta Leah mother from downstairs.
It had been about a year since Leah and Ethan broke up because of their different lifestyles. Leah had not completely gotten over it but learned to live with it. Shortly after the breakup Leah had decided to go to school to become a nurse she also worked part time as a nurse (not yet an official one) at the local hospital for Dc. Mason.
"Ok mom I'll be down in a second, just give me a minute."
In less than five minutes Leah had on her uniform and was ready to go. Leah drove her beautiful red convertible to the hospital. When she got there Dc. Mason gave her a warm greeting. She liked Dc. Mason he was always a cheerful person. However he always got her straight to work.
"Leah we have got a lot of work to do this morning we have a full house on our hands." said Dc. Mason.
"Alright I'll start right away" replied Leah as Dc. Mason handed out the schedule for that day.
"Oh yes, Leah please come see me in my office when your shift is over there is something very important that I need to talk to you about."
"Sure thing Doc." Replied Leah cheerfully but she secretly wondered if anything was wrong.
Through the whole day Leah was very apprehensive about her upcoming meeting with Dc. Mason. The day flew by quickly and she couldn't even count how many people she had helped that day but she loved being a nurse. Leah walked into Dc. Mason's office and realized that it was very homey with a couch and many pictures of his family.
"Hey Doc what's up?" Leah asked a bit nervously and the Doc must have sensed it because he replied cheerfully.
"Oh it's nothing bad Leah I don't want you to be worried trust me." Said Dc. Mason "the only reason I wanted to speak with you is because I have a proposition for you. I'm going to be transferring to a small town to work. Now I'm already bringing one nurse with us but I need another. Now I know you're not done you schooling but you can do your courses via the internet and I believe that this could give you some good hands on experience as well. So what d' ya say?"
Leah was elated and excited she had longed for a chance to get away form the house, the place that only brought her unhappy memories of Neil dying and of her mother griving afterwords.'
"I would love to go I'm so happy!" replied Leah with excitement.
Withing the next week Leah was on the road to the mistery town. Her mother had let her leave reluctantly but she new it was her life.
