Free Happily Ever Now (Boundless Love Book 2) by Iris Deorre

Even though they hadn’t spoken because the automated system had done its job, she could tell that those beautiful yellow sunflowers brightened up the woman’s day. Sahara smiled slightly as she remembered what joy flowers gave her. Their beautiful colours made her relax somewhat and took her attention from the pending dread.
    Sahara walked into Doctor Cross’s office twenty minutes later. She smiled at him nervously.
    ‘It’s good to see you again Sahara.’ He was kind and gentle and had the ability to make her feel at ease, even when her nerves were running rampage in her body.
    ‘What can I do for you? Looking at your chart you aren’t due for a check up for a couple of months.’
    ‘Yes, but I’m having some dizzy spells as I mentioned the last time. I’ve taken the multivitamin, but things are still the same. I feel as though it’s getting worse.’
    ‘Your panic can also contribute to this,’ he said.
    ‘Yes, maybe, but I’m just so nervous, you know with everything.’
    ‘I understand, and to be honest, since your last clear, cancer wouldn’t show up that quickly again.’
    ‘Are you certain about that?’
    He wasn’t, but he wasn’t going to tell her that. Doctor Cross was confident that it was something else, other than what she felt. But he could tell by the look on her face that she wouldn’t settle until he took a closer look at things.
    ‘Okay, I tell you what. I’m going to send you for some tests. We’ll start with some blood tests. If anything’s wrong we’ll definitely find out.’
    She nodded.
    ‘We’ll take it from there.’ He started to write on a piece of paper. ‘Give this to the receptionist and she’ll direct you where to go for tests. It shouldn’t be long. You’ll probably get your results within the next twenty four hours.’
    She nodded.
    ‘Don’t worry yet. I’m almost certain that it isn’t anything serious. It still might be your body is deficient. Keep taking the multivitamin.’
    ‘Thanks Doctor Cross.’ She stood up.
    ‘You’re welcome.’
    Sahara left the room and headed straight for the reception desk. There were a few things that needed filling out, but she was soon on her way to the Phlebotomist. It was a quick procedure; the woman took blood so quickly it was over before Sahara could even blink.
    ‘Wow that was fast.’ Sahara patted the plaster on her arm.
    ‘It’s my job love, do this every minute of the day, you’ll become an expert.’ She smiled.
    Sahara laughed lightly. Thanked the woman and made her way out to the waiting car.
    ‘Could you take me to work, please?’ She told the driver.
    ‘Certainly.’
    By the time Sahara got to the shop, all her nerves had calmed down. The thought of Eugene coming home in a couple of days made it even more so.
    ‘Hey, how did it go?’ asked Alice. ‘Or shouldn’t I ask.’
    ‘Ask away, it was okay. Doc sent me for some bloods. He’s certain it’s not cancer, but also not a hundred percent certain.’
    ‘Well that’s good news. Isn’t it?’
    ‘It calmed my nerves, but I still get the feeling that something’s wrong.’
    ‘Don’t you think you’re just paranoid? You’ve been under a lot of pressure lately. It could be the reason you feel the way you do.’
    ‘True, the Doc suggested the same thing. I think things were moving too fast for me.’
    ‘Maybe you should join me in one of my meditation sessions.’
    ‘Thanks for the offer, but that really isn’t me. I’m not into that sort of thing.’
    ‘Okay, that’s fine. Just thought it would help. Perhaps a massage would do.’
    ‘Yeah that could help.’ She scanned through the diary. ‘Where are you up to on orders?’
    Alice had done the first two orders of the day, there were still a few she had to do before two o’clock that had come through.
    ‘I guess I’ll start from the third order.’
    ‘Yes, that would be great. It’s been a busy week.’
    ‘I’m just grateful we have something to do. I’m glad people still
