She just needed a minute. A moment to sit and breathe was all Jo had been searching for since her shift began. She’d been covering the pit when a particularly rough DV case come through. Jo had kept it together; she knew that she had to. But from the moment the patient was wheeled through the door, she’d felt a tightness in her chest. This feeling that wouldn’t escape her. Even when she was finally able to leave the confines of the ER, she kept finding every room filled with people she’d rather not be around. The lounge, on-call rooms. That’s when it occurred to her that her new, friend-ish, psychiatrist had a couch. And at this point, even a shrink’s office would do. Jo took a deep breath, steadying herself before stepping off the elevator. The resident checked in with the receptionist before knocking on Emmett’s door. “Hey!” She said as she poked her head inside. “How’s it going? I was thinking today would be a great day to test out that furniture of yours?”
