Physiotherapist

1. Professional Practice

As every other Friday I have professional practice in Royal Brompton Hospital that is 20 minutes by walk away of my and Sophia's apartment.

Sophia's my best friend that I met 4 years ago when we accidentally met on the street. We started hanging out and then one day she asked me if I want to move in with her in apartment that she bought in Montrose House Princes Gate. It was amazing opportunity for me since I didn't know anyone here and I didn't had place to be in. It was a month until college and I was looking for apartment for already few months but everything was sold and I didn't known where I will live when college start. Since then we live together and I can't be happier. I got place to live in and best friend in one shot.

"hey Grace" I said as I entered place in hospital that is for physiotherapist professional practice and Grace was my mentor and of three more girls.

"hey Ela" she said looking down at her computer, she looked kind bored this morning

"everything's okay?" I asked raising my eyebrow as I was putting my things on hanger

"yes, just few things came about your practice and I need to check it, some are kind of surprise for me" she said and smiled

Grace and Luke, the mentor of another group of students on practice, were sending some requests on our names to some big places to go there on practice since here in hospital we are mostly learning the theory so there we will mostly apply theory in practice. We only knows that 8 of us is going to be on five different places and that of those five places three of them are football clubs.

"and that's?" I asked putting work shirt on

"some of you are going to be really happy about this" she said

"when we gonna find out?" I asked sitting across her

"on the break" she said

"okay" I said and smiled

......

It's the break time, Carla, Mia, Ella and I were already in our place for lunch along with Grace waiting for Luke and boys to come.

"my ladies, I hope you didn't wait too long" Luke said sitting next to Grace as boys sat across us girls

"you excited to hear news?" Luke asked putting papers on the desk

"so excited" Mia said and everyone smiled

"okay, let's do this and then you can eat your lunch" Luke said smiling

"so, Jack and Mia, you two were lucky enough that your grades are one of the best here and you're going to Manchester tomorrow morning, you gonna be on practice with one of the best club in England, Manchester City is yours" Luke said and Jack and Mia looked at each other surprised, I can tell Mia would like to scream right now of happiness

......

"and Ela, as the one with the best grades of you eight, you're not going too far" Luke said and girls looked at me confused

"I know you won't disappoint us and that's why you got the opportunity to work with Chelsea" I couldn't believe what he is saying, I am going to Chelsea, I'm going to work with my favourite football club and my favourite players

"seriously?" I asked still not believing

"seriously Ela, you were doing amazing job here, we believe in you, we believe in all of you and we know you're gonna do this amazing and finish this final year without problem" Grace said

"you're all amazing students and we are so grateful to have opportunity to work with students like you, we know you're going to make your dreams come true no matter where you see yourself" Luke said and we all stand up hugging him and Grace

They gave us everything, they gave us opportunity to work with them, to learn from them and at the end they gave us opportunity to finish our professional practice in one of the best places in UK.

"thank you for everything" I whispered hugging Grace, as and Luke she learnt us a lot but she was just like another mother for me

"you better let me know how it will go with all those cute guys there" she joked smiling

.....

Here I am, in my apartment packing my bag for tomorrow's morning little trip to Chelsea's training ground.

"Els, that's so good, I'm so happy and proud of you" Sophia said sitting on my bed as I was packing my bag

"thanks Soph" I said smiling at her

"how long you will stay there?" she asked

"I'm two weeks home and two weeks there till the end of school year" I said

"so next six months you're a bit there and a bit here?" she asked

"yes" I said closing my bag

It's middle of February what means it's six months left to me to finish college. Physio London at Imperial College is definitely the college which gave me everything I needed and I'm happy I got the opportunity to sign up this college and finishing it well.

As Chelsea have a match at Monday I think it's gonna be fun today and tomorrow.

....

"have fun" Sophia said hugging me

"thanks, see you for two weeks" I said smiling

"watch out to not do nonsenses" she said as I sat into my car

"you too" I said and drove to Cobham
