Kayla: I just can't do this anymore.

Peter: Was it something I said or did.

Kayla: No, no its not you it's me.

Peter: Please don't give me that its not you it's me speech.

Kayla: I'm sorry.

Peter: (hurt look on face) you're breaking up with me and not giving me any good reason why.

Announcement on intercom: Paging Dr. Thornton to the E.R.

Kayla: I've got to go. I'm so sorry Peter it just didn't work out.

She runs down to the E.R. leaving peter feeling hurt and confused.

Lu is walking down the hall and sees her friend peter with a hurt look on his face. So she walks over to him to find out what's wrong.

Lu: hey peter

Peter: (dazed look on his face)

Lu: Peter are you okay I said hi

Lu: I'm serious Peter what's bothering you.

Peter: okay fine. If you must know Kayla just dumped me.

Lu: Are serious

Peter: Yes I'm serious.

Lu: Did she say why.

Peter: She started giving me the it' s not you it's me speech then, But then she was paged to the E.R so she didn't have a chance to finish.

Lu: Wow I can't believe she did that.

Lana spots Lu and Peter talking and she walks over to them.

Lana: Hey guys what's up.

Lu: (turns to Lana) Kayla dumped peter

Lana: Are you serious. After I worked so hard to get you too together look what she does.

Peter: Thanks Lana. But it's okay.

Lana: No it's not okay. I think something is wrong with Kayla. Did she tell you why she dumped you.

Peter: No

Lana: But I still think there is something wrong. She's been late constantly this week and she had a bit of an attitude with me this morning.

Peter: Come to think of it she did have a bit of an attitude. She also looked tired and she said she wasn't feeling too good. May be there is something wrong with her. I should go and try to find her and try to talk to her.

Lana &Lu: NO don't do that.

Lana: If you do that it'll make you seem desperate.

Lu: You what I'll go and try to find her later today during lunch and talk to her and see if everything is okay.
