Duo-Pup!, Tuesday morning, Mocha. OTA and MW!
Isabella sat at a table in the Mocha wearing a black dress and sorting through a stack of mail. The Mocha was unusually subdued and understandably so. She'd taken the day off for a doctor's appointment, but the doctor had cancelled at the last minute due to a family emergency. Not a huge deal, but Isabella was still taking the day off as a break from the non-stop working she'd been doing since Del left. She paused when she came to a package from Daphne and wondered why she just hadn't given it to her at the office. She opened it, and inside was a gender neutral pack of soft baby bibs. One in the shape of a duck head, one white with yellow ducks printed all over it, and the last one featured a duck splashing in the water that said "Cute and messy, just like my daddy."
Isabella couldn't help it - she laughed. Loud.

Drew stood in line still in his blue scrubs, waiting patiently though that was mostly because he felt half dead. He'd gotten maybe six hours of sleep since the disaster on Saturday night, and he felt like shit. It had been a busy week for him anyway, but in addition to his scheduled surgeries he'd volunteered to help tend the injured Manor residents. Now, seventy-two hours, a million cups of coffee and two quick break-room naps later, he was ready to solid pass the hell out for the next eighteen hours until he had to go back to work. Well, after one more cup of coffee, that was.
