cara- the new girl

the hospital

the sun was shining of caras car as she drove into the car park of holby city's hospital, it was a hot summers day in the middle of july. cara pulled up into her parking space and let out a deep sigh and muttered to herself "come on cara, dad always talks about this place, it must be good..."(her dad, elliot hope used to be the consultant of darwin, the cardiothoracic ward, but then decided to go to word in pakistan with tb, as he is getting older he came back to home and now occasionally comes in to the hospital to do a shift). cara got out her car and made her way to aau, cara used to always come here when she was a little kid, she loved spending time here seeing what her dads work was like, this place used to be like her second home. cara, nervous but excitedly knocked on the consultants office door and anticipated for a reply.
"come in!" a females voice called.
cara opened the door carefully and walked in, "hi i'm cara, cara martinez, the new staff nurse"
cara didn't have her dads last name (hope) because her past abusive husband, who's last name was martinez, allowed cara to divorce him but only if she kept his last name so he would always be with her in some way and cara of course had to accept the agreement.

"ah cara! my names serena campbell as you can guess by the office i'm the consultant here on aau. i do have to say you look strangely familiar, do i know you?" serena chuckled.
"i don't think so, maybe in a past life, if you believe in that type of thing" cara smiles trying not to look like she was lying.
"well anyway, i'll get dr raf di lucca to show you around, i'm sure you'll get along!" serena says paging raf.
cara smiles politely and waits for raf to come.
