Chapter 32: Ayla

Emma arrived a couple of hours later. I had only needed her as a nurse for about a week, but we got along so well that we quickly became friends. We didn’t have much planned for the evening, but that was kind of the point. We just wanted to sit around and have some drinks and girl talk.

“Damn, girl,” Emma said excitedly. “You work fast.”

I laughed. “It’s all Kingston’s doing, really.”

“You impress everybody, and you know it,” she teased.

I rolled my eyes. Not everyone, apparently. Not the one person that mattered the most.

I shook my head, not knowing where that thought had come from.

“I hope these are all good things for you, Ayla,” Emma said. “I know you’ve been through a lot. Hopefully, this will be the fresh start you deserve.”
