    Summary

    On any normal day, Robby would be looking forward to handoff, to zipping up and walking home and turning off his brain for the evening.

    But handoff, in this case, was the reason Robby was absolutely dreading the end of this shift. Handoff meant bringing the night shift attending up to speed on anything that had transpired over the course of his shift that would carry over into the next one. And this evening, just an hour and a half before he was due to get out of there, an intoxicated patient had assaulted a member of his staff.

    Summary

    He'd gotten a text an hour into his shift from an EMS buddy. Your girl is at the scene of a 6 car pile up. She pulled over on the shoulder and crossed the freeway to help. Thought you'd want to know.

    Jack couldn't blame the guy for not answering his panicked follow-up questions, clearly getting pulled into the trauma and chaos of a major wreck in the midst of a springtime downpour.

    But it had been four hours, and all of his calls and texts to Samira had gone completely unanswered. He didn't know what hospital, if any she'd followed the EMS to, didn't know if she was okay. He'd gone out of his mind with panic—been in no state to treat anyone—so he called in a favor from Shen and asked to be relieved, racing home, in the hopes that Samira would be waiting for him there. He'd had no such luck.
