You go downstairs and find Debbie preparing to leave for work. "You are so late for school!" she admonishes you.
"Yeah, hey, where do you work again?" you ask.
"I'm a physiotherapist at University Hospital, I help people recover from injuries," Debbie explains as she searches for her house keys.
"And Kim... Kimberly works there too?"
"Yes, my daughter works at the same place I do!" she smiles at you with maternal pride. "Kimmie is working at the hospital as a nursing student. As a matter of fact, I think she's working today! Say, why don't you come to work with me today?"
"You think I could?" you ask.
"Sure, I think that would be fun!" she answers. "You can see where I work... you can meet Ingrid, our massage therapist--she's new to town too, but she's from Sweden--and maybe Kimmie can show you around the campus. Ask her to bring you to the sorority house, too!"
"Sorority house?"
"Yeah, she's a proud member of Delta Delta, like her mom before her. She lives there now, too. She has so many good friends there, like that nice weather girl Jenny Baird from Channel 6. I bet she'd love to meet such a handsome young man!" she says. "But be careful... Jenny's engaged now!"
So you accompany Debbie to the hospital. She parks in the staff parking lot and accompanies you in. Inside, she checks the schedule. "Darn it... sorry, , looks like Kim switched shifts with Kelly today," Debbie sighs. "Well, do you want to come see where I work? Or if you like, you can go to Delta Delta house: I bet Kimmie will be there..."
