“Sure, just fill this out. Who is you doctor?” The lady asks.

“I had several when I was in here. Don’t know which was the main one. Sorry.” Tina says. Tina fills in the few lines on the paper and hand it back to the lady.

“That’s okay. I’ll find you one.” The lady says and looks up Tina’s  chart on her computer.

“Thank you.” Tina says and walks over and takes a seat.

“You’ll get in?” Josh asks.

“Yeah. She’s finding me a doctor.” Tina says and smiles. “Thanks for driving me Josh. You don’t have to stay. I’m gonna call Bette and tell her where I am.” Tina says.

“Okay, but if you need a ride then call me. Or need a ride tomorrow for school, call me, okay?” He says seriously.

“I will, thank you.” Tina says and gives him a hug. He leaves and she takes out her cell phone and calls Bette at work. She picks up at the the fourth ring.

“Hello?” Bette says.

“Babe, hi it’s me.” Tina says.

“Aww, I was just thinking about you.” Bette says.

“You were?” Tina asks.

“I’m always thinking about you.” Bette replies. “So, you’re on your way home?” She asks.

“I was, but took a detour. I need you not to panic. But I am at the hospital.” Tina says.

“What? What’s wrong?” Bette asks concerned.

“It’s my leg. It suddenly started to get worse in the last class. I had Josh take me to the hospital. I’m waiting for the doctor now.” Tina says.

“Oh baby, is it bad?” Bette asks.

“I can take it.” Tina says and smiles.

“I’m gonna leave work now, I’ll be there in a short while.” Bette says.

“You don’t have to, I can take the bus home, no problem.” Tina says.

“No, I’m coming to get you. Please don’t argue with me when it comes to your health. Please.” Bette pleads.

“I’m sorry… I’m in the waiting room in the ER. But by the time you arrive, I’m probably in with the doctor.” Tina says.

“Okay. I’ll be there soon. I love you.” Bette says.

“I love you too. Drive carefully.” Tina says just before she hangs up.

Moments later a doctor arrives and calls her name.
