I could hear laughing  and loud chatter from the inside ,wich was unusual but then again,it could have been her new roommate.

I walked in to be greeted with a bright smile on Nona's face.

"Victoria I've been expecting you!,I hope you didn't forget about poor o'l me! "she said shaking her head but smiling nonetheless wich caused me smile yet again.

"Why I'd never,I've just been caught up at work,and doctor didn't allow visitors So I had to wait in the waiting room for your results"I smiled placing my bags down on the table next to her bed.

"Oh"she sighed,but maintained her happy mood "by the way this is Merida"she says pointing to the bed beside her,for the first time I noticed We weren't alone.

I looked over and she Was a lady who wore the same plain attire as every other patient.

She had blue eyes and dark short hair,with I suppose was from the chemo.

"Hi,dear"she smiled my way and I kindly returned it.

"Hi Im Victoria but you can call me Tori"Nona was the only one who called me by my full name.

'I don't see the need to call you Tori, when you have a beautiful name Victoria '

Stubborn was one way to describe her in a sense

"Wow,you were right,she is a beautiful young lady "Merida says making me flush.

"Yeah,she'd be a good one to your granson,nice young boy he is " Nona says smirking and my eyes widened,I knew exactly what that face ment.

Nona had been trying to set me up with guys claiming that I needed a man in my  life or I'd be a loner to the grave.

but I wasn't interested,not that I had never had a boyfriend before,I'd had my fair share of four.

"Nona I know what your thinking and the answer is no "I said shaking my head disapprovingly.

"Oh come on Victoria!,you havent been out for three years now,with a guy "she says eyebrows furrowed.

"Three years! "Merida says shocked,"darling how old are you?"

"Twenty-one"I say slightly embarrassed.

"You need to go out more"Merida says ,"a beauty like you,doesn't deserve to be lonely " And Nona nods her head agreeing with  Merida.

"I'm  just not ready"I say.

"You've  been saying that for the past year now"Nona says shaking her head.

"I noticed you arent wearing those damn glasses"she says smiling.

"Well I know how much you despise them"I say"and i'll deside when im ready"referring to Merida's granson

"At least just meet him He's a real looker"I knew she'd never let this go.

"Alright,alright"I sighed,slightly  regretting  it.

They both smiled exitedly,and we continued talking.

I'd learned that his name was James Parks

It was getting late and I  had to leave,we said our goodyes and I greeted clair on my way out.
