Michelle smiled a knowing smile. "I've been in your shoes before," she said, "it gets easier, just give it a few weeks."<br/>She sat down on the edge of Rachel's bed, putting the tray across her own lap. She did what she could to not draw attention to the girl's new figure.<br/>"I do have some news for you, I can get you a job, just like your old one, at least until you get yourself settled in the rest of the way."<br/>She took a breath, "I know it isn't what you really want, but the fact is, settling in to life here as fast as possible is the best thing for you. And you'll have a much easier time of it than I did, believe me."<br/><br/>She looked at Rachel, her eyes pleading with her as the girl nibbled away on the first food she'd had in a long time.
