“What on earth?! Have you seen her?”
Molly looked up from her coffee. The swirl of mocha infiltration on the milk froth in her cup was fascinating. She licked her upper lip, tasting calm and morning.”Seen who?”
“Her!” Abby flicked her head urgently in the direction of the kitchen window.
“Do I have to?” Molly pouted. Her sister was altogether too excitable. Surely there was naught wrong with sitting idly with one’s breakfast. However, she could not recall the last time Abby did anything but gobble down her toast, gulp her tea, and pop right up in search of dishes to wash, counters to wipe, cabinets to put to order, or lists to make.
Abby’s chest rose in what was certain to turn lecture.
Molly sighed, stood, and craned her neck to see. White uniform. Red crosses. Pink rubber gloves. “Oh, her? Sheri. Our new neighbor. A nurse or such.”

I’m with Molly. Being able to treat your breakfast as sacred time should be disturbed by excitable Abbys 🙂

And what is wrong with the nurse? If she is a nurse 🙂 Clearly one sister didn’t think so. Great take on it.

LOL, I think one sister is distracted by the pink rubber gloves and tall rain boots … 😉 What IS that nurse going to be doing today, eh? … 😉

Don’t know. I think it’s not a standard nursing procedure
