Chapter 118 The Nurse

• Angel woke before dawn, her nerves already twisting her stomach into knots. Today was the big day—her nursing school interview. She had spent the last two nights buried in her notes, barely sleeping, and now her head buzzed with a mixture of exhaustion and determination.
• Amanda had packed her a small breakfast and pressed her neatly ironed white dress into her hands before giving her a pep talk. “You’re going to be amazing,” Amanda had said, her eyes filled with pride. “Just remember to breathe, take your time, and show them the Angel I know.”
• Angel hugged her tightly before stepping out into the crisp morning air. The streets were quiet, the only sound coming from the distant hum of traffic as the city began to wake. She checked her watch nervously, picking up her pace as she headed toward the bus stop.
