The Sequence

Chapter [32] - Deeper Level

1:24

I screeched and hopped up from the bed. I tripped over my feet as I stripped and slid into the shower. I scrubbed my body quickly and dried off before rushing to the closet.

I grabbed my black v neck and black jeans along with a turquoise bra and panty set. I slid into both, the set and jeans, and smiled. It still fit but then again, these were in the next size up as well.

I sighed and slid into my black Jordan Retro 8's. I slid my black leather jacket on and strapped on a silver Rolly. I connected the clasp of a small necklace around my neck, before quickly poking my earrings in my ear.

I rushed to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. I followed up with gargling mouthwash before adding black matte lipstick to my lips. I took my hair out and threw it up into a huge bun before slicking my edges down quickly.

I added lotion to my hands and face, and a little mascara to my eyelashes before rushing to the room. I snatched my phone off the charger and threw it in my CK purse. I sprayed DKNY perfume all over before rushing out the door and down the steps.

Armani was leaving out with me. We hugged briefly before sliding in our cars and going our separate ways.

I rushed down the highway and looked at the clock, 1:52. I sighed, praying I made it in time. Traffic was light so I made it there in under five minutes. I pulled up and rushed out before locking up and heading inside. I clocked in at 1:59 on the dot and signed in before taking over my shift.

I blew out a breath trying to calm my racing heart before saying a quick thank you to God. My boss stepped out from the employee room in his scrubs and eyed me before giving me a small nod.

I smiled briefly and looked down, mentally wiping my brow.

I sat down and logged into the computer, starting my shift.

It was slow today, only about four people needed my help meanwhile Dr. Brown continued to repeatedly ask me for write ups. I handed each in and hoped this meant a damn raise because the way he has me working is becoming too much.

I handed him the write up and he grabbed it before speaking, "Room 294, she needs a physical but I was just called in for an emergent surgery, so I need you to handle this," he dug in the stack of papers in his hand and handed me a file.

I grabbed it and stood up, confused. I knew how to give out a physical due to training but this is the first time anyone's asked for my help other than being inside this booth.

"Yeah I got this," I spoke and he nodded before rushing off to wherever he was supposed to be.

I bit my lip and headed up to Room 294. I looked around at all the doctor's wearing scrubs and shit, but I'm not with it. My attire was never asked to be altered for this job so I didn't feel the need to but I know when I become a nurse it'll be mandatory.

I walked into the room and saw a girl about the age of 13 sitting on the examination table. I walked in and smiled at her before shutting the door behind me. I headed over to the computer and logged on before speaking.

"Hello, my name is Chanel Marie. I'm just filling in for Dr. Brown to give you a...physical right?" I asked. She looked up and nodded. "What do you need this physical for?" I asked, making casual talk so she could ease up and get comfortable.

"Joining the basketball team this year," she said, mouth full of braces. "You can shoot?" I asked, faking shock. "Can I? I run laps around them other teams," she popped her collar and laughed.

I laughed and stood up, "Okay I need you to lay back for me." I instructed. She did as told as I did the basic check up. I filled out the form quickly and typed it out on the computer before signing my name at the bottom.
