Victoria's pov

*Earlier that same day as the previous chapter*

"Can I get that donut now please!" I shouted in frustration at my co-workers in the kitchen.

This poor boy has been here for over five minutes and all he wanted was a stupid donut that Kera was taking too long to give me. I decided to go get it myself, since waiting on her was too much for my impatience.

"Give me one minute sweetheart, I'll be right back" I told him softly, stunned at his immense patience. Smiling, he gave me a simple nod while I made my way to the kitchen to get the donut for the little cutie.

"Here's that donut" I heard someone say the minute I turned around, taking me a little off guard.

Unexpectedly, I collided with something mushy, and all the contents of the donut were splattered across my chest. Great. Just great.

I groaned as Kera gave me a sheepish smile with a hint of amusement in her eyes. Gosh I hated her sometimes.

"Go clean up Vic. I'll get this little guy another donut" She said while stifling a laugh. I rolled my eyes at her as I made my way to the back room in hopes to get my shirt cleansed.

Life every Friday with these people can really take a toll on your mentality, but I smiled nonetheless as I thought about how much I actually love their annoying asses. They were practically my only family, and so even after I got the job at the hospital as a nurse, I stayed working with them.

I started working here when I was just 16, right after I graduated high school and was left on my own. I always wanted to go to college, so I applied for a job here at the local diner to help pay for my necessities, since most of my tuition was covered by the money my aunt left me.

Here, I met my boss and non-blood mother, Charlette, and her two children that help her out, Kera and Nick. They were always there for me and treated me like family. I spent all my Christmases with them and they never shunned me, even in the hardest times.

So when I got the job at the hospital a year ago, I made sure to reserve a day to still work here. I'm too drawn to them to just ditch them.

I made my way to the washroom where I saw Nick fiddling with something in his hands.

"Hey, what do you got there bud?" I asked in a suspicious tone as he quickly shoved it behind his back. They were all acting weird today. When I thought about it, they were actually acting weirder than usual. Realization dawned at me as I understood too well what was really happening.
