"No one does," I replied. "Do you want to see the team now?"
"I'll be honored to," she said as she got up, put Chloe down, and followed behind me.

"This is Dr. David Solomon, head of ER and practically in charge, if I'm not around," I introduced him.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Olivia Collins," she introduced herself.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I hope you'll enjoy your time working here," he said with a warm smile and looked down. "I see Chloe is attached to you now."
"Hi David," Chloe greeted but she hid behind Olivia, wrapping her tiny arms around Olivia's leg.
"I don't mind the company," Olivia said as she caressed Chloe's hair.
"If you're less busy you'll help Dr. Solomon watch over patients who just finished operations," I said. "There are other nurses, so you don't have to do it alone. And to make it effective, ask him first so he can easily assign you to a patient."
"I understand," she said.
"I heard you're good with children. We don't have a lot of kids doing surgeries or in the ER, thank God, but I'd love to have your help," he said to her.
"Understood, sir," she affirmed.

"That went well," I said to her has we made our way to children's ward.
"He reminds me of Helen, but calmer and wiser," she explained.
She was carrying Chloe in her arms.
"Isn't she too heavy?" I asked.
"Nah," she shook her head.
"Daddy, carry me!" Chloe stretched her arms to me.
I took her and Olivia let out a sigh of relief.
"I thought you said she wasn't heavy," I smirked.
"Oh shut it hulk." She punched my arm playfully, but didn't pull her hand away. She opened her first and touched my biceps.
She swallowed and looked up at me. I didn't say anything.
"Ben, I…"
"Good afternoon, sir," a voice greeted causing Olivia to pull her hand away.
I turned and another doctor was standing behind us.
"Olivia, this is Martha. She's a nurse in charge of the children's ward," I introduced her. "Martha, Olivia is going to be working closely with you."
"Hi, Martha!" Chloe waved at her.
"Hello, Chloe," Martha waved back with a smile. "Nice to meet you, Olivia."
"Nice to meet you, Martha," Olivia shook her hand. "I can't wait to meet the angels."
