"I don't understand why they need me to come by the hospital, on my day off might I add, to fill out some paper work." I said through the phone while I drove to Atlanta Midtown Hospital.

I heard Katie laugh, "Don't worry about it. The paperwork might just be you filling out your signature."

"I doubt that. But, I might see you and the kids at the hospital. That's a plus at least."

"Maybe you could give us the tour then. The kids would love to see a friendly face." I know Katie was giving me her puppy dog look on the other line.

"As much as I would love to, I can't. I was suppose to visit my brother before he leaves for college tomorrow. And the kids will love Sanders, she maybe serious most of the time but she's a real jokster once they get to know her."

"How is Toby?" Katie asked.

"He's doing great. He got the scholarship, now he can start fulfilling his dream of becoming an astrophysicist. His girlfriend, Jamie, is doing well. He's planning to propose to her tonight."

"Good for them. They've been together since middle school, it's time they tied the knot. And someone should start looking for a relationship."

I rolled my eyes, "Katie, I don't want a relationship. You know how lucky I am when it comes to men." I said sarcastically.

I heard her sigh, "Yeah, I know. But, what was that old saying...you're one heartbreak closer to your happy ending." I laughed. "Hey, I'll talk to you later. The bus just pulled up at the hospital."

"Sounds like a plan, I'll see you in 20. Maybe." I hung up.

I hate traffic. I made it to the hospital in 40 minutes. I went inside and Bobby was already making his way towards me.

"Hey, Amelia. I thought it was your day off?" He asked.

"It is, but I was suppose to fill out some paperwork about one of the patients."

He crossed his arms, "On your day off. They do realize it could have waited till tomorrow?"

"Apparently, they wanted it done today."

"Ok, come on. I'll go get you the papers then."

I smiled, "Thanks, Bobby."

We went though the hallways and stopped when we saw Katie's class singing for some of the patients in the waiting area.

Lean on me when you're not strong.
And I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on. For it won't be long.
'Til I'm gonna need somebody to lean on.

I smiled at my best friend, "Katie!" She smiled and pulled me in for a hug. "Where's little Quentin?"

She pointed at my godson. He was wearing his green sweatshirt. He had the biggest on his face and was clapping.

"Cute kids." Bobby said.

"They're kids, but their monsters." Katie joked.

I roller my eyes. I excused myself before the flirting could continue. I went to the front desk, seeing Bobby wasn't going to get me the papers. Now, what's my position at the office you ask? I'm a nurse.

"Hey, Jason. Can you hand me Steve Michigan's file? I need to fill in some of his paperwork."

"Sure thing, Amelia."
