When ivory went on her monthly hike also known as her "date with nature" did she ever imagine stumbling upon a body of a man, in a suit lying face down, at the start of her hike to her favourite spot...

Chapter 1 The Emergency department

NURSE KIM......NURSE KIM...

*silence*

all that Abby heard after she called out was the sound of her own breathing.

Abby scanned the whole area and no sign of Kim the head nurse, she thought to herself

'How is it that she is always missing when things get busy'

she took a deep breath and slowly released it with her eyes closed trying to calm herself

as soon as she opened her eyes her phone started ringing, she rolled her eyes, cleared her throat 'ahem'...

and in her most calm voice, she said 'hello nurse Abby speaking'......' WHY ARE YOU STILL

NOT BACK'...Abby moved the phone away from her ear and Phoebe was still yelling...'HOW IS IT THAT YOU CAN NEVER

GET ANYTHING I ASK OF YOU DONE, MY 80-YEAR-OLD GRANDMA MOVES FASTER THAN YOU, GET...BACK...HERE NOW!!'

*silence*

'ABBY......remember why you took these extra shifts' she said to herself as she fought the urge to lose it for the gazillion times this week.

Although Abby had worked previously in the ED she hated the department, it was the only place she thought she would never voluntarily work at, yet

here she was, developing anger issues and constantly being yelled at by nurses, patients and doctors. She usually works as a scrub nurse in general surgery 4 days a week

in the mornings and in afternoons she was at her second job, but due to financial issues, she has had to pick up extra shifts in the ED as two nurses are on maternity leave and she needs the money.

*at the nursing station*

Phoebe was on the phone with Dr Park, giving him a handover from nurse Kim who left early due to a family emergency, while documenting patient admissions,

soon enough she got off the phone and started scanning for Nurse Abby who had yet to return. She spotted Nurse John: ''nurse John before you leave, can you please complete a set of observations for the male patient in the yellow seat!'

'sure' John replied.

As John was preparing the treatment room, Phoebe added 'the department snail has yet to return, who knows which country she is taking a detour in' *eye roll*

John understood who she was referring to and he just nodded and proceeded to call the patient in.

John was aware of phoebe's snide comments, in fact, he was maybe even immune to them.

Abby and Phoebe were actually childhood friends. They grew up in the same town, went to the same schools and even studied nursing together at the same university. They were close most of their lives even though they had completely different upbringings and circumstances. Although Phoebe was not rich, she came from a middle-class well off family where she was the only child, so she was a little more carefree and sometimes a little entitled, whereas Abby lived with her grandparents and her little brother after the disappearance of their mother, her father passed away when she was 10yrs old. This meant she also had a lot of responsibilities.

They started drifting at the end of high school and even more so in their first year of university, while phoebe was busy partying and making friends, Abby was busy working different part-time jobs

*babysitting

*tutoring

*waitressing

*kitchen hand

*cleaner

you name it she has done it all. She not only had to put herself through school she had to look after her brother to help her aging grandparents all the while keeping her grades up
