After spending about an hour with Axel chatting and munching on candy bars, Bell had to get to the hospital. She had expected Galen to show up, he asked to walk her to work, and he knew where she was. But he never came.
‘I wonder what happened?’ she thought to herself.
Galen wasn’t the type to break his word for no reason. She sent him a message but hadn’t received a reply. Walking between patient rooms, she continued to wonder about him.
“Seriously?!” someone shouted from the nurse’s station ahead.
Curiosity led Bell to go investigate.
“What’s up?” Bell asked, setting a chart down on the counter.
The nurse at the desk turned and looked at her, then turned back to the other nurse she had been chatting with. They exchanged glances that told Bell they weren’t sure if they should tell her something. She knew immediately it must be some juicy gossip.
“Spill it. I will find out whatever it is eventually anyway,” Bell laughed.
