Attracting attention

"I've been calling you, didn't you hear me?"

Amy felt whoozy when she finally took in the person. It was Susan calling her. Truth be told, she had built a defense mechanism to make a run for it once she hears someone address her by her real name. She had actually forgotten about the fact that she registered with her real name at the hospital.

"Sorry about that. I.... I was so caught up in.... reading these", Amy showed her the medicine in her hand.

"It's okay. Here, you forgot your scarf in my office", Susan handed her the pink woolen item.

Amy's eyes lit up in realization. "How careless of me. Thank you Susan, and you can use my first name."

"Jennifer", Susan tasted it on her lips. "How about Jen?"

"Sounds good. Then I'll call you Suzy."

Susan hummed in approval. The two women smiled at each other.

"Mom" A boy shouted and waved his hand gaining the attention of the two women.
