(Josephine's POV)

I was nervous.

How nervous?

Nervous enough to make Titan uneasy.

"Ms. Waters,"

"That's me." I said standing up.

I followed the lady down the hall and into one of the rooms. She did what she needed before heading out.

Several minutes passed by before the door opened.

"Josephine, It's Dr. Greene. How are you today?"

"Good. How are you?"

"I'm doing just fine. I wanna get you up for some scans to see what we got going on, alright?"

"Don't you already have my scans?"

"Those are ten years old. I want a fresh set that'll show me what's going on. Okay?"

"Okay."

A hour later, I was back in the exam room waiting for Doctor Greene. It took him several minutes before he came back.

"I'll call you when the results come in and I've had time to look at them."

"Alright."

"I will tell you this however, from what I have already seen during the tests, I am very optimistic."

"Really?"

"Yes, but I don't want to get your hopes up to high."

"Don't worry about that. Either way this goes I'll be just fine." I said with a smile

It wasn't a lie. I've become accustomed to living my life the way I have for ten years. Either way this went, I was going to be happy and live my life to the fullest. No complaints.

I got to work at the same time that Jacob and his friends were leaving.

"Where you been?" Jacob asked.

"I had some errands."

"Errands? What kind?"

"The none of your business kind."

I didn't want anyone to know about me seeing Doctor Greene. I didn't want them to know what I was seeing him about. I could control myself with the whole hope thing. Everyone else could not.

My parents, siblings, friends, and family would all be hopeful. They'd try to hype me up and fill me with that same hope. If Doctor Greene gets my results back and sees that it's not possible to help me then they'll be crushed. Them being crushed will hurt me more than the news of nothing being possible. Especially since I know that they'll be overly optimistic thinking that it'll make me feel better.

"Fair enough. Be warned by the way, Lisa is in a mood."

"Noted. Thank you."

"See you tomorrow."

"Bye."

As soon as I walked in Lisa saw me and went off.

"Josephine, I need some advice." She said as I got behind the counter.
