successful relationship.”
Jasmine laughed, “So you’ve met our beloved Frank huh? We’re not together. We’re just best friends. Trust me he’s been complaining about that for years.”
The nurse gave her a blank stare.
“You two are not together?”
“No, why would you say that? ”
“Um, I don’t know what would make me say that other than the way he seemed to be basically holding his breath until you got here. I mean he was at my station pa cing waiting for you.”
Jasmine blew if off as nothing.
“We have been friends basically since God created us. We’ve seen each other through many things. He just needed to know that I was here, that’s all. Don’t you feel the same way about your best friend?”
Ashley looked at her skeptically and said, “Yeah, maybe, I guess.”
“Besides, his girlfriend is Amber you know the red-head. I thought she was here.”
“ He didn’t greet her like he greeted you. Like I said, he was waiting for you. He told me I would know who you were immediately by your hair and to call him but you got here before he could go back to his dad’s room.”
Jasmine was ready to move on from this conversation, “So can you tell me what I need to do to be tested?”
“Yes. I’ll page the doctor and have him come out to talk to you.”
“ Could you do me a small favor? Don’t let anyone know I’m being tested until we know what the results are.”
“Not a problem.”
Amber was heading toward the nurse’s station but Jasmine’s back was to her. She didn’t see the way Amber rolled her eyes. It didn’t escape Nurse Ashley’s attention though. She smirked to herself. Something was definitely up between ebony and ivory, whether they knew it or not.
Amber tapped Jasmine on the shoulder, “Hey there . I see you finally made it.”
Jasmine turned around, “Yeah. It was crazy trying to get here. You know I’m trying to prolong my entrance. I want to keep the room drama free as long as possible.”
Amber plastered on a fake smile, “I just came out to get some ice.”
Jasmine had tuned Amber out thinking about whether she could really give this man her kidney. Her mom would have a cow.
She saw Amber wave at her, “See you later.”
Jasmine turned back to face the nurse.
The nurse smirked and said, “Mmmm-hmmm.”
Jasmine genuinely was lost and asked, “What?”
Nurse Ashley chose to ignore it and said, “The doctor should be here in about ten minutes.”
Chapter 15: What Lies Beneath
Jasmine met with Frank’s doctor so she could discus s being tested as a possible kidney match. She didn’t know how long it would take but she was told she had to be tested for a blood match, tissue match and cross-matching. She didn’t know what all of it meant but she did know it sounded like too much to go through for satan’s first born.
Dr. Williams was a fifty- something mixed race man that had features more loyal to his Anglo Saxon ancestry but his skin tone told the rest of the story. After he discussed all the medical jargon and the process of being a donor he sat back in his chair with his hands steeped on his chin and got silent. The way he looked at her he was starting to make her feel weird.
She asked , “Is there something wrong?”
He looked like he was unsure of what he was about to say.
“I don’t want to offend you but the curiosity is a bit tempting.”
She knew this old man was not about to hit on her. If he did she was about to go slap off.
He went on, “If I can just step out of the prof essional for one moment and ask, how do you, a beautiful, intelligent and obviously compassionate sista, fit into the family in room 103 that is obviously headed by a patriarch that likely still has ties to the Klan?”
Jasmine let out the breath she was holding with a laugh.
“Oh, is that all?” This she could handle. “Well,
