The sound of my alarm going woke me up from my sleep, I groan and rolled out of bed. I started my morning routine to get ready for work. Since I graduated from NYU I moved to Baltimore to work at "The Johns Hopkins Hospital" when i applied there i didn't think I would get the job. When I told my parents about the position I was offered, they both weren't to happy about it but I asked both of them to come check out the hospital with me and somehow I got them on board. Mama helped me pack up my condo and find a new place in Baltimore, daddy convinced me to not sale the condo in New York and just rent it out and I have to say that was a great idea I just put that extra income in my saving account. My new place was a nice size apartment for me and Prince it was a three bedroom, two bath and I had my own private balcony. It was nice and I really loved how i could walk to and from work everyday. It was December and today was my last day before my two week Christmas vacation I was so excited to see my family. I missed them so much it gets lonely being out here by myself, I really hadn't time to make friends like that since I work almost everyday and on my days off I usually wash clothes, clean my apartment and get caught up on my sleep. I made sure I had everything i needed for work today, told prince bye and headed out the door for work. As I walked it started to snow and I loved when that happenes. When I reached the hospital i took the elevator to my floor and Ellie was sitting at her desk smiling at me. Ellie and I had became friends over the two years I've worked here and to be honest she is my only friend.
"Morning Kay." she said smiling
"Morning Ell." I said walking behind the desk
I walked into the break room to put my things away and prep myself for my rounds. I grabbed my iPad and login into the system so i was ready to go. I worked on the pediatric floor so i got to wear bright colorful scrubs, I hated to see kids sick but it made me feel better knowing that I was apart of making them feel better and smile again. The patient I checked on was Marissa, she was 12 years old and loved ballet. I think I had grown to love her the most out of all my patients because she had a fiery attitude just like me.
"Morning my little ballerina."
"Morning Ms. Thomas."
"How you feeling today?"
"I'm good. I think today is going to be a good day." she said smiling
"Good."
I checked her vitals, made sure her port was clean and she talked to me about the 'Dolan Twins'. I learned Ethan was her favorite, they have a YouTube channel with 10 million subscriber and I should watch there videos. After I finished my rounds with my other patients I went to the playroom and played some games with the kids, i loved seeing smiles on their faces. The rest of my shift was uneventful and I was glad that meant all my patients had a great day. Once i got home i cranked the heat in my apartment and called Erica on face-time.
"Hey girl." she said as she popped up on the screen
"Hey, what you doing?" I asked sitting at my table
"Girl, making sure i have everything together. What about you?"
"Just got off work. I haven't even started packing yet and my flight is in the morning."
"What the hell you waiting for? You better get up."
"I am, i have time. I just wanted to relax a bit."
"Okay. So have you decided if you're moving back to LA?"
"No. I wanted to talk to my parents first and see what they think and i wanted to do that in person."
"I understand that now what about Jacob?"
"Again something I wanna do in person. I really do miss him and you know i never fell out of love with him." I said sighing
"Do you think he would want to get back together?"
"God. I dont know. What if he moved on? Erica I dont think I could handle that heartbreak." I said
My chest was getting tight and I couldn't breath just thinking about Jacob rejecting me
"It's going to be okay. I got your back no matter what." Erica said
"Yeah. I love you. Thank you for always being here for me."
"I love you too. Don't over think anything, you never know what's going to happen. Now go pack so you dont miss your flight because if you do im going to be upset i wont get to see you tomorrow."
"Alright bye."
"Bye boo."
After I hung up with I made way to my room, turned my music on and begun the packing process. It took me most of the night to find, wash and pack all the clothes I wanted to bring with me. As i closed my last suite case i looked at the clock and it was 1:30 in the morning. My flight was for 5:15 am, I had a two hour layover in Philadelphia and I had planned on get a cheese-steak sandwich and going to the Rocky statue. So I just crawled in my bed to get as much sleep as I could without missing my flight.
~Two and half hours later~
I quickly got washed up, dressed, took prince out to use the bathroom and double checked to make sure i had everything. It seemed like i was holding my breathe all the way to the airport but once i got there I relaxed a little bit. When i got to Philadelphia I left the airport to explore and my first stop was the Rocky statue then the stairs and final to get a real Philly cheese steak sandwich. I took as many pictures for Snapchat and Instagram. I face time my brother Donovan once i got my sandwich
"Bro. Look at this!" i said flipping the camera
"That looks so good."
"I wish you was here with me so we could try it together."
"Yeah me too but you go ahead and enjoy it. And i'll see you in a couple hours."
"Alright love you."
"Love you too, big baby." he said before ending the call
I ate my sandwich, ordered two more for both my brothers and headed back to the airport.
