Kids from One Alpha

Chapter 58

Chapter 58: Bloodwork

“Serena, I got the lab results back for the annual physicals,” Adriana said, dropping a pile of folder in front of Serena at the Nurse’s station. “Thanks?” Serena asked, looking up at her boss and raising an eyebrow. Adriana chuckled. “Can you go through them and make sure everything is normal?” she asked. “Sure,” Serena said. “You can use my office is you want some privacy,” Adriana offered. Serena left the nurse’s station, a large stack of files in her arms. Going over the bloodwork numbers was necessary work, but it was monotonous all the same. “I’ll bring the next batch in when the lab finishes them,” Adriana called after her. Serena waved a hand over her shoulder in acknowledgement.

Annual blood panels would test for any potential diseases or health concerns that pack members had to be aware of. It also covered pregnancy in females. Serena took a seat at Adriana’s new desk. She had gotten an entirely remodeled office with the rest of the hospital renovations. She got right to work going over the blood panels. Pen in hand, Serena made small marks next to any of the results that had come back with levels that warranted further investigation. Most were small, just little deficiencies here and there, or low or high blood pressure, cholesterol, and sodium levels.

If there was anything more concerning, Serena would circle it and put a sticky note on the page with her notes on the test. Of course, she had to go back and compare each result with the medical history of each pack member to make sure the results aligned with any pre-existing conditions they might have.

After a while, Serena had her legs up on Adriana’s desk. She was leaning back in her chair, chewing on her pen cap as she went over another file of medical history and new lab results.

Her eyes were starting to blur a little, all the results bleeding together.

I mean, I think that is what he wants, but things are..complicated.” “Complicated how?” Adriana pressed. Serena sighed, finishing off her chips. “With the kids and everything,” she said vaguely. “Carson doesn’t like them?” she asked. “No, he likes them a lot,” she said. “They think he is a little boring. Besides, I didn’t come here to date. Sure, I’d like to settle down, eventually, but my focus right now is my career and my kids.” Adriana laughed, shuffling some files around. “Well, at least you are making connections within the pack,” Adriana said. “Beta Carson is a good man.” “Yes, he is,” Serena agreed, picking up another folder to get working on.
