Becky joins the others at the table and takes a bite of her apple. “I’m working with three hot doctors and I’m in love with one of them.”

“Should we play kiss-marry-kill?” Irin asks.

“I would use all three on Freen.” Becky says.

“Oh so we’re back on Chankimha now?” William asks.

“When was she ever not on Chankimha?” Irin asks.

“I feel like everything Irin says has a double meaning.” Mind says frowning.

Both William and Becky chuckle in response.

“One of them is the new attending. She already tried to flirt with me and Freen gave her a piece of her mind.” Becky says abandoning her head on the table.

“Another one? We only just got rid of Jane. We’re screwed.” Irin says. “What happened?”

"She's not just a new attending, she is the villain in Freen's story."

Flashback

Becky walks to the nurses desk and starts typing her patient’s information. Just then, a woman in a leather jacket comes up to her and peers over her shoulder.

“Invasive non-cell. With a history of COPD.” She shrugs. “That guy's pretty much a goner, huh?”

Becky turns around to glance at her and raises her eyebrows. “Sensitivity. Something people are rather unfamiliar with.” She forces a fake smile, “Are you new here?”

The girl keeps smiling charmingly. “Kind of. I’m looking for the best doctor in here.”

“Then you’re looking for the Nazi?”

She frowns. “You have a Nazi working here?”

“Oh.” Becky chuckles, “Oh no, it’s just a name we use for our chief Nita. Don’t tell her you know.”

“It’ll be our secret then. Something else you wanna share? Maybe your name?” She asks with a wide smile.

Becky smiles and narrows her eyes, looking suspiciously at her. “You have your charm, leather jacket girl.”

She offers her hand. “I’m Friend.”

Becky takes her hand and shakes it. “Becky.”

“Does this mean you’re willing to go out with me?”

“Well...do you work here? Because I have bad history with co-workers. So I made this rule, you know...”

“Oh well,” She looks at her watch. “I actually start in twenty minutes. Maybe we should have a speed date or something like that.”

Becky bursts into laughter. “What don’t you do to get a girl to go out with you?”

“What the hell are you doing here?”

When Becky hears a voice filled with anger, her heart suddenly misses a beat.

Freen.

She wasn’t expecting to see her right in that moment, let alone upset.

She notices that Faye is with her too, and wonders why they’re together if they ended things and if Faye even knows what happened between them that night.

“Freen. Faye.” Friend smiles at the two girls.

Faye seems rather uncomfortable, while Freen looks like she wants to reap Friend to shreds.
