Country Western Ranch Modern Setting

"Boy, today is going to be a long day." Dr. Brenton said as he turned to Jamie the head nurse. He rubbed the back of his neck, "At least two new guest coming in today."
Jamie nodded, "Well it is the start of a new intake season, so we were bound to get someone." Her and Dr. Brenton were stitting in the main foyer of the main building. This is where the new patients, or guest as they we called, would arrive. It was only 9, which is when they first 'opened to the public', so they didn't expect any new people to arrive yet. Jamie pulled out a book and flipped to the dog eared page. "Hopefully they're ready to recover when they get here."
Dr. Brenton grunted. They didn't break horses or people here.

A shambling young girl entered the main building. A younger male currently at her side. He clung to her as if it were to save his life. She knelt down, stroking his cheek shakily. Her voice was shaky as well from crying. "Derek, You'll be fine without me. I promise. I'll be back before you know it, Okay?," She forced a smile for him. "Please, Do your best in taking care of Mama, For me." She kissed his forehead gently before the young boy burst into tears and hugged her neck. She stroked his head, trying to soothe him. She began to hum to him, picking him up and swaying softly as he still held onto her neck...
When he was calm enough, he was escorted out of the building. She spied to adults in front of her. She approached.
"I-Is this the main building for Sharing Hearts Ranch..?" She asked rather timidly.

Jamie looked up at the sound of a young girl entering. She and Dr. Brenton had both observed the exchange between her and the young boy. The young girl approached them. "I-is this the main building for Sharing Hearts Ranch...?" She asked timidly.
Dr. Brenton smiled and stood up, "Yes! What might your name be?" He asked holding out his hand. Jamie stood up next to him, closing her book and setting it on the chair.

Estrella looked down at the mans hand and slowly brought hers to meet it.
"What might your name be?" He asked. "E-Estrella Rune." She stated, a bit less timidly and fearful. She gave a small smile back, trying not to be rude.
She was a pretty young thing and it didn't look like much was wrong with her. But something psychologically was messed up in her head... Something that could only be mended with time and care.
She feared future events. Will I take my next breath?, Will Derek be able to care for mother by himself?, Will they survive without me..?
These thoughts kept running through her mind uncontrollably fro awhile as she sat there and stared at the two adults in front of her. She pushed the thoughts into the back of her mind so she wouldn't have a panic attack right then and there.

Dr. Brenton could tell that this young girl- Estrella, was nervous. He wanted to make her as comfortable as possible. "Well Estrella, I hope you like animals. I'll show you around and maybe we can find a dog. Would that make you more comfortable?" Dr. Brenton turned to Jamie. "Would you stay here and wait to see if we get any more guest?"
Jamie nodded. "That's fine," She turned to Estrella, "If anyone else shows up we'll be having a little get together in the main dining room, which Dr. Brenton will show you." She put her hand on Estrella's shoulder. "You'll be fine."
Once Jamie removed her hand Dr. Brenton picked up Estrella's bag. "Shall I show you around then?"

Estrella smiled widely. She loved animals. They always made her feel better when she wasn't in the best of moods.... "Thank you. So much." She bowed her head lightly to Jamie and began to follow Dr. Brenton. "And thank you as well. I really do appreciate all of the hospitality..." She was still smiling widely in hopes of finding a dog, which was her favorite animal. She had rather a gleeful skip in her step now.
Estrella liked this place. It was comforting. It had a nice Western type feeling to it. She felt as if she were meant to be here, as if she had been here forever...

Dr. Brenton could sense that Estella was feeling more comfortable. He walked down the hall, and into the main kitchen/living area. "The my and Jamie's offices are upstairs, along with the infirmary. But you aren't aloud up there unless accompanied by a staff member. This is where we'll be having our bi-daily meetings. Where we'll here about the plans for today, and then how the day went. In the dining room is where you'll eat your main meals, but if you miss one don't worry. The dorm has kitchens which are stocked with stuff to make sandwiches, cereal, drinks, and your own personal food items. Other than that, this is is. Would you like to see where you'll be staying?"

Estrella nodded softly, pushing her crimson red bangs from her eyes and again, following Dr. Brenton. She wondered if the rooms were as nice as the other places in the building. All of her worries were slowly fading into nothing and she continued to smile.
Estrella began ponder her own thoughts while listening to Dr. Brenton speak. I wonder if any other people like me are here...
She kept this thought. It wasn't a bad thought, more of a curious one.

"Alright then." Dr. Brenton lead Estrella out the front door, and to the right where the female dorm are. "To the left is the male dorms, and over here are the female dorms. We lock the doors at night, but with the help of a nurse you can get back in if you say, need to smoke. We ask that you only smoke on the porch of either the dorm houses or the main house. We can provide nicotine substitutes for trail rides and etc." Dr. Brenton held open the door for Estrella to walk through.
