CHAPTER ELEVEN

"Zoe has been lying to us the whole time" said noel to Louise and max

"With good reason" said max

"Good reason?" said noel

"She had just been made a widow and lost her daughter in the same week" said max "could you deal with all the gossip"

"I bet you knew" said Louise "it's written all over your face"

"No" said max angrily "cause if I knew I wouldn't have been such a prick to her"

"You two are literally inseparable" pointed out Louise "I'm not buying it"

"We have a fag outside and you call us inseparable?" said Max

"There wasn't a break you two wouldn't spend outside smoking" said Louise

"Just this morning I called her old, stuck up and a slag" said max

"So that's how you got that?" said Louise pointing to max's face

Max slowly ran his hand across where Zoe had slapped him and thought about how much he deserved it.

"Yes" said max "I am so stupid"

"True" said Louise and noel at the same time

"We need to find her" said max

"No, you need to wait until Charlie brings her back" said Louise "or else I will slap you too"

"I bet you, she is sat at their graves" said max

"Even if she is, just leave it" said Louise

Max sighed and put his head in his hands until he saw Connie walk over.

"Zoe's needed in rhesus" said Connie "cam someone page her"

"She's away" said Louise as if it was a normal accordance "out"

"She is in the middle of her shift, tell her to come back in and to be in my office in five" demanded Connie in an angry tone

"Cant" said Louise full of attitude

"Well, where the hell is she? "Said Connie

"Visiting her husband and daughters grave" said Louise "or is that not aloud?"
