Thank you @Angelwithscars96 for helping me make this chapter!

I cringed as we entered the building, I hate hospitals. We walked up to the receptionist desk the woman who was sitting there had her headphones on so she couldn't hear dad calling her. I sighed getting fed up with this lady.

Standing on my tiptoes I grabbed the bell and started ringing it obnoxiously. The lady pulled off her headphones but I kept on ringing it finding it amusing.

"Would you stop that", Charlie exclaimed grabbing the bell from my hands. I pouted.

How rude

Just steal it back it's not even that hard

Look there's another one on that ladies desk

SHUT UP, I thought

Rude

We're just trying to help - _-

I sighed and looked around to find something else to cure my boredom while Charlie signed some papers. 

Then something shiny caught my eye, I turned around facing the object that was poking out slightly from behind a plant. I glanced up at dad who was still signing the papers for the doctor. I made my way over to the plant quietly so that dad doesn't see.

Move like a snake, move like a snake put your hand on your waist

What!

I feel like I've heard that song before, but at the same time, I've never heard it before. This is so confusing!

I quickly moved the pot to the side, gasping softly when I saw a silver ring in the shape of a dolphin. It looked weird, the dolphin was stretched so that the tail wrapped around your finger and almost touched the head.

I picked up the ring from the floor and inspected it. It was shiny and could see my reflection a little bit.

I should probably ask if this is someone's ring.

"Zadie", I heard dad call out. I peeked my head out from behind the plant and saw him standing above me with his eyebrow raised. 

"What are you doing on the floor", He asked. I just smiled and got up, that's a stupid question everyone knows that the floor is so much better than chairs. It's a proven fact made by me.

"Let's go the doctor called you", He sighed.

"Wait, I have to give this to the lady I found it on the floor", I told him. I ran up to the receptionist's desk and placed the ring down on the counter. It took quite a while as I wasn't able to reach so I had to use a chair.

"Excuse me, I found this on the floor", I said. She looked up at me with annoyance and plucked the ring from the table. I looked at her as she stared at it, finally she looked back up to me.
