A New Life for the Broken Bird

[Doc Holliday]

Rikkert had fulfilled his duties. Out of respect, he left her to her peace and headed off to do his own thing. It was approaching evening meal time and he headed for that. Nurse Kelly stayed with Isabella.
"Now all I have is a hospital robe but I can escort you to your quarters where you can get some regular clothes," she said to her.
"Besides, the walk will help you get used to that new skin."

They made some girl talk along the way. "John has no clue who you are right now. This might be fun." At the moment, she had no clue where he was as his schedule was as unpredictable as it was full. It varies on the surgery he was doing or what admin functions he had and it was common for him to have plenty of both on a given day.
"He works too hard," said Kelly. "He takes so much upon himself."
She then sighed, "He has been like that since his wife died years ago. I think he masks his depression with a lot of work."

They arrived at her quarters. "Listen, I'm off duty if you want to get something to eat. Med Force One isn't in the area often so I'm going over there. I know of a good lounge and cafe if you're interested. I will wait out here while you get dressed."
