The Past Of Adam And Jessica

A petite woman left the flat the early hours of the next morning. The only light was given by the dimly lit street lamp as she draped her shawl around her shoulders and hurried home.

The man awoke expecting to find the beautiful stranger he had brought home with him last night beside him. Instead there was just him. Adam. He sighed and pulled himself out of bed to get ready for a day at Holby City Hospital where he worked.

"There is a new agency nurse starting today. I would like you all to welcome Jessica Harrison" Tess announced. Adam had strolled in late, missing the speech that Tess had given about the new nurse.

"Who is that?" Adam asked Zoe.

"Oh that? New agency nurse, arrived this morning. I'm showing her around"

Adam looked back at the petite nurse in her purple scrubs, wavy brown hair and brown eyes, who was nevoursly chewing on her lower lip, as she took in her looked a spacious hospital with lament flooring, a large reception desk, and an over weight porter was wheeling a girl out of the lifts, having just come from Darwin.

"Tess? This is Jana Gold, 15, fell down the stairs at school. Waiting on C.T results"

"Thanks Mac. Jessica could you take this?" Tess asked, handing the nurse Janna's notes.

"Yeah sure. Where do you want her?"

"Cubicle 3" Tess replied as Jessica took the teenager in to the cubicle and helped her on the bed.

"Jana what happened?"

"I felt faint after P.E and fell down the stairs, my head teacher found me"

Jessica smiled as she watched the girl push her blonde hair behind her ears and rub her hands together.

"Hello we are looking for Janna Gold, we were told she was brought here" The woman ran her fingers through her blonde hair as she hugged her black sweater tighter around her skinny frame, her blue eyes were spilling with tears.

"What's your name?"

"Nicole Gold"

"Alright take a seat and someone will be over to you soon"

"Dr. Trueman. Here are Janna's C.T results." Tess handed them to him and he walked away to cubicle 3.

"Hello Janna, I'm doctor Trueman, but you can call me Adam"

The nurse turned around, shock on her face. "It's you?..."
