MHA #5, Saturday afternoon
Aug. 18th, 2018 03:27 pmWell, it had happened. Cristina had finally given up on leaving the island any time soon and signed a lease on an apartment. She'd skipped her clinic shift to do it, even.
She'd had to, since she'd managed to buy several rooms' worth of furniture on the Isle of Ikea this week.
As far as coping mechanisms went, skipping work and furnishing an apartment via impulse shopping was fairly low-key for her. She wasn't lying on the floor of an OR shaking or catatonic, and she'd stopped just being drunk 24/7, so she thought she was doing pretty well.
And ordering around the Ikea delivery people was soothing in its own way, too.
[open! MHA folks, come say hi to your new neighbor]
