Keeping connections

[Ida Clark]

Ida laughed as she listened to one of her vet school friends recount a disastrous day at the vet clinic with a dog who had taken an objection to being given medication and had thrown up over the vet he had been assisting. "See, I've always said that they need liver flavoured medication, then the dogs wouldn't be so adverse to taking them." And, from the short time she had spent at vet school, she had witnessed how rough a number of vets could be when medicating an animal. She'd also seen it done, in her opinion, properly; where the vet handled the animal with care and empathy and it was all over and done with without any fight and both parties reasonably unstressed.

She smiled and shook her head in amusement as the call ended and she tucked her phone back into her pocket. After the unexpected phone call, she was wanting to enjoy a few more minutes here in the shared lounge on the ground floor of the apartment building before she needed to head back to the barn and do her job out there. She sipped at her bottle of orange juice, marvelling in all the things that had brought her here, and didn't think she'd change them given the chance.

Erich Trevathan

[Erich Trevathan]

Erich was still getting use to this new chapter in his life. Back home, he had his own condo which in the long run was truly cheaper then the rent of San Francisco. The place just went on the market and open house for it happening on next Friday. He was slowly starting to like the place. Waking up with no sounds outside of traffic and such. Even his travel to work not dealing with traffic or the long drive. All he had to do really was walk there which took barely no time at all. He didn't have a class to teach till the next day andw had the teaching plan for that class already worked out.

He entered the lounge room of the Apartment building he was in, he really only saw a quick glance of it and never yet checked it out till today. Today was the dressed in a dark purple dress shirt along with black pants, he made a note to himself try go to town soon get new clothes for here. today he was actually going spend exploring the area finally after spending till the early hours unpacking. His eyes caught a blonde female to be honest she was cute. He smiled as he walked over to where she was "Hello, Erich Trevahan" He spoke " Just moved here, teaching World History" He casually seen few other staff members here, though none yet he took time to get to know.

A smile lit up Ida's face as an unknown man approached her and introduced himself. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Erich." She said. "Welcome to Blue Ridge. I'm Ida. I teach equine reproduction, and I help keep things organised in the Evening Primrose barn." Sounded much better than saying she was a barn hand.
