this chair for hours with no escape. With a crooked smile, I take a seat and let her do what she needs to do, not at all embarrassed this time. Obviously he came back, so it didn’t scare him off. If he wants to spend a few hours keeping me company I’m sure not going to complain. The nurse finishes up and leaves.
    “Thank you for the flowers , by the way. They were beautiful. I would have liked to have said thank you right away, but there was no contact information. Better late than never.”
    “You’re welcome . It was a little cowardly of me, wasn’t it? I’m a little new at this.”
    “A little new at what?” I ask confused.
    “The whole flower sending thing . I wasn’t even sure if it was the right thing to do?”
    “How could you be new at sending flowers? And trust me, sending flowers is never a bad thing to do.”
    “It’ s just been a while since I have spent time with a woman other than my Mom and my sisters.”
    “Sisters, do you have a big family?” Let’s just steer clear of the whole it’s been a while since he’s been with a woman part.
    “Yes, I have two brothers and two sisters and both my parents, what about you?”
    “It’s just me. I don’t have any family to speak of. I just moved here after graduating.”
    “You just graduated? How old are y ou, if you don’t mind me asking?”
    “I don’t mind . I’m thirty, I didn’t start college until I was twenty-five. It just took me awhile to realize I needed to make something out of my life. I graduated with a degree in business. I’m an executive assistant right now, actually not too far from here. What about you?”

    “I’m thirty-one, I too have a degree i n business and I’m the CEO of a company not too far from here either.”
    “ A CEO, good for you. Tell me about your family.”
    “ I have two older brothers and two younger sisters, we have lived here all our lives. My parents are retired. We actually don’t live that far apart from each other, now that I think about it. We’re a pretty close family.”
    “You’re lucky, I don’t have any family. Well I have a mom, but I haven’t talked to her since I was eighteen when I moved out. We never really got along. The second I graduated from high school, I moved out west, and I have been on my own since then. I put myself through college, working two jobs. Seemed things were moving in the right direction until, well, this.” She points to her chest and turns red having drawn my attention to herself.
    “I know what you mean . You think you have everything together, and then one day, it all falls apart.” I need to take this conversation away from that subject before I pour out my soul to her. She is just so easy to talk to, and I can see myself telling her everything. We just met, I’m going to scare her away.
    Zoey comes in to unhook her, and I try not to look at her chest. I can tell she is a little self-conscious about it, but I can’t look away. How can someone so young go through this by herself? She has no family or friends here. I know our time is almost up. It’s now or never time.
    “Willow, can I see your phone?”
    “Sure, here.” She hands me her phone and I step out into the hallway. From her phone, I call my phone so I can have her number. From my phone, I call Charlotte to check in, she tells me about an issue that needs my immediate attention. Zoey steps out into the hallway with me and hands me another appointment card with a knowing smirk on her face.
    “She’s all done . You can pull the car around front for her.”
    “I’ll call my driver, ” I tell her.
    Stepping back into the room with Willow, I hand her back her phone, “My driver will be out front in a few minutes to take you home. I’m sorry I can’t take you myself. There are issues I need to take care of at work.”
