“Except for you, of course.”  Neela said her face breaking out into a grin.  She found it amusing that Abby had such a checkered past.  A past that none of them knew about because Abby kept things under wraps just as Robbi did.

            “You keep bringing that up.”  Abby wagged her finger at her and Neela grabbed it twisting lightly.  Abby narrowed her eyes and wrenched her finger free from Neela’s steel like grasp.

            “I find it interesting is all.”  Neela began as she pour the dressing onto her salad, “That you’ve kissed a woman and failed to mention that in all the time we’ve known each other and even lived together.”  Abby rolled her dark eyes and made a face the laugh lines and dimples standing out and making her look older than her real age.

            “It was a dare!”  Abby said with an exaggerated sigh.  She’d never thought about those so called dares during drinking games.  Until now, even in the wake of Kerry and Sandy she’d never thought of it.

            “Oh I’m sure it was.”  Abby pegged a leaf of lettuce at Neela and both women laughed.

ERERERERER

            “That’s not the way I run my shift!”  Robbi was irate she was storming down the hallway and Kerry Weaver was rushing up behind her.  The cane thumped on the tiled floor as she tried to follow her step for step.  Eve side stepped them and stood back to watch the argument.  Sam peeked out from the clear patient board to watch with interest.

            “Well that is the way we run this hospital!”  Kerry shot back at her and Robbi dropped the chart down on the desk and pushed passed Jerry with an angry grunt.  The big man stumbled the petite woman had almost taken him off his feet.

            “You!  That is the way YOU RUN this hospital.”  Robbi Romano blared back turning around and standing toe to toe with Kerry.  “He gave nitro to a patient who had taken three I repeat for the interns listening, THREE doses of Viagra and killed him.  Dead.  He isn’t coming back Dr. Weaver!  And the man’s still got a raging hard on!  How the ***** do I explain that to his wife, with whom he wasn’t sleeping with!  He was sleeping with his secretary!”  Robbi Romano blazed, kicking a chair across the small hallway, and Kerry motioned for her to keep her voice down.
