Chapter 120 Esme

• I had found University such a drain on my brain today, but one I was eternally grateful for. Anything was better than being back at our pack. Five years into my medical degree now, and two years left before I was fully fledged Dr, then all the pain and suffering and long days would finally be worth it.
• The fact that after my training shift at the hospital I was collecting my cousin was just a stark reminder of the realities of the hells that remained at our pack on a daily basis. But I was not going to complain about seeing my little Lola. My best friend since we were pups, her visits were one of the highlights of my months when her Mum and Dad managed to sneak them in. It was a true shame she did not live closer. I don't know why I called her my little Lola, she was only a few years younger than me, and we weren't exactly kids any more. Though we were considered tiny in height so perhaps that was something.
• I just needed to focus my brain for the last few hours of my shift and I should be ok, I tell myself. I have a few days off for Lola's visit, and we have lots planned.... pampering... nights out... lots of catching up as always........ shopping.........plans of escape.......
