"Mommy wake up"

I feel someone sitting over me and I know exactly who it is. It's Joe, my dear baby boy, actually he's not a baby anymore he's almost 6 years old and he's really big for his age, but for me he'll always be a baby, my baby. I never once in my life thought that I would become such a good mother but I guess I was really wrong about myself. Right now my life is great I'm now the Chief of the ER and I have a wonderful kid the only thing that is missing in my life is a love, but I think I can deal with that and I'm so thankful for all the other things in my life that I don't really worry about that, of course it would be good to have someone to share a bed in a cold night or to kiss or even just o talk I haven't been in a serious relationship since Luka and I broke up 4 years ago it was not that we had a huge fight or something like that, actually the end of our relationship was really friendly we just realized that we were together more because of the friendship than anything else of course there was also the great sex, but he was and still is more like an older brother to me and I was a younger sister to him, so we decided that we should go in separate ways and that's what we did. He got back with Sam what I think it's great for both of them, and I had a feel dates but nothing really serious.

"Mommy daddy and Aunt Sam are going to be here soon and I don't want to be late"

"Why are you so rushed?"

"Daddy promised that he would take me to the hospital today."

"Aren't you going to disturb you father?"

"No he said that today will be a slow day, because he has just one meeting with a doctor who is looking for a job there and then he's going to help the ER so I'm going to stay there until I have to go to the school"

"A new doctor Luka didn't said anything to me about it"

"Yeah he told me it last night when we were playing videogame, daddy also said that the guy is coming from France and just scheduled the interview yesterday afternoon so I think dad just forgot to tell you"

"Ok"

"Now you now why I'm rushed please get up mommy"

He look at me with pleading eyes I don't know where that look came from neither Luka or I can make this look and it reminds me of Carter I never heard anything about him after Pratt came back I hope that he's ok I miss him some times I miss our friendship and his kindness but he's where he wants to be, so I believe that he must be happy. Joe start to tickle me I look at him and start to tickling him too, he suddenly get up and run away from me I get up too and run after him. The day officially started.

We're having breakfast when I hear a knock at the door I get up from my chair and open the door there I see Sam with a huge smile. We're great friends and she loves Joe what it's awesome, she also helps me a lot and she's always there when I need her. She gives me a hug and I ask her to come in for a while of course she does even knowing that Luka is waiting in the car. I go upstairs to get my purse and she stays with Joe while he's finishing his breakfast.

I pick up my stuffs and we go to the car.

"Hey how are you buddy?" Luka asks Joe

"I'm great dad you're are going to let me help you today right daddy?"

"I told you I have to interview that French doctor didn't I?

"Yeah I mean after that of course"

"ok then"

"Who is this guy anyway?" I interrupt their conversation so I could know more about this new doctor

"I don't really know he set an appointment with Marie, the new secretary, and she forgot to ask his name the only thing that he said is that he was coming from Paris and hoped to get a position at County"

"Do you know where he would like to work?"

"At the ER with you"

"Really?" It would be good have one more doctor to help, after all we are talking about County and we are always in short hands so.

"What time is this meeting? Maybe I should go up there and see if he fits for the job."

"That would be nice. It's at 10 o'clock"

"If we don't get swamped I'll be there ok"

We finally make it to the hospital and I'll go clock in and put my stuffs in the lounge, but before that I take a look at the board "Oh God it's going to be a long long day".
