As they slid the stretcher into the mri machine, five doctors stood behind the glass looking at multiole screens in front of them. They all had different opinions as they looked at Jihn's brain at different angles. The swelling was making it almost impossible to see the bullet but the still squinted almost guessing the exact location.
They were arguing amongst themselves when the door opened ,bringing them to sudden silence.
Doctor Sanders walked in, his shiny shoes clicking on the floor as he walked passed them and looked at the screen. Absorbing the information and the different angles , he already knew what needed to be done.
''Dr Chow, What is your take on this?'', Dr Sanders asked.
''Well, I assume the bullet is here'', He sed pointing to the left side of Johns head. ''It entered here and should be here. So we need to go in from here and extract!!!''.
''Doctors, do you all agree?'', Doctor Sanders asked curiously.
They all looked at eac
The nurse that had prepared John for his procedure called for a hospital porter. Together the two wheeled him into the elevator taking him up to the 3rd floor operating theatre.The nurse looked at his pale face and couldn't help but feel sorry for him. He had all these tubes attached keeping him alive. She hoped that he would survive the operation. As a nurse you always feel the pain of your patient, you care for them and wish the best for them, she was one of them that always prayed for others.They reached the theatre waiting room. A theatre nurse entered gowned up in full scrubs to take over from the ward nurse." Mr John Smith, aged eighteen. Could not weigh hi
It was the early hours of the morning and Alex was in a deep sleep. His phone on his bedside table started to ring. Alex thought it was part of his dream but after the third ring he woke up in a shock. Looking at his screen blinking brightlyin the dark,he now realised that it was the hospital number. He answered the call without hesitation.''Hello'', the nervousness in his voice was evident.''Hello, is this Alex?'', the sweet voice on the line spoke.''Y..Y...Yes'', Alex stuttered . He was now wide awake.''My name is Sister Vanessa Francis from the Midlands private hospital. I am calling about John. John Smith'', She said calmly.Alex stayed silent waiting.''Well, Mr Alex. The operation is completed. We have brought John to the Intensive care unit.He is currently stable but we will only know the results when he wakes up.The next twenty four hours are critical.We have him isolated to avoid any sort of infection. We won't allow any v
The morning came quicker than he expected. Alex felt as if he had never slept. He rubbed his eyes and yawned as he stepped out of his bed. Feeling around for his slippers, he looked at the empty bed across him and remembered John.He slipped on his slippers and walked into the bathroom. Taking a cold shower and dressing casually, he went down for breakfast. He ate half heartedly before rushing out. He needed to go to the car wash. He knew he would be picking up Adrianna today and he needed to get the blood stains out of his car., He knew that it will bring back memories and emotionally break her. Around the corner he stopped at the Easy bay car wash. He parked his car and gave them the keyes while he grabbed a cup of coffee and a bagel. The sky was clear blue. The sun was bright orange . It was a hot day and Alex sat under the umbrella attached to his table and chairs. As he watched his car being washed he dialled Adrianna making sure she would be ready.
Alex led Adrianna to the lift, where they now took the elevator to the 5th floor. Walking down the long corridor they finally reached the luxurious five star private suites. It was like a hotel on this wing of the hospital. The nurses were all so polite as if they were air hostesses.Alex walked to a door on the far end and knocked gently." Come in", a sweet voice answered.Alex walked in with Adrianna behind him,"what a surprise, and who have you brought with you? Your wife?"Alex grinned from ear to ear," this is Mrs Adrianna Smith".
After meeting her in-laws, Adrianna had now learned the truth about her husband. He was indeed a multibillionare but due to a family fued he had to be sent away for his own safety. She knew she had to be strong for John. He had sacrificed his life for hers.She woke up early the next morning and dressed in the most elegant pin striped business suit. It highlighted her curves and made her look like a sexy devil. She was the new CEO and she was going to own it. No more hiding.'' When John gets back ,he is going to own this plush,confident look as well!!!!'', Adrianna thought as she entered the kitchen.''Ooooh lala,Where are you off to?'', Martha asked as she handed her as mug of coffee.''Work,mom. Since John isn't able to, I will be taking his place!!!'', Adrianna answered.''You are a Walters, you don't need to work!!!, If ypu want to work,come with me to Walters industries!!!'', Peter said commandingly.''No. I will be taking my husbands place'',
Adrianna stood silently in the elevator beside Alex. "I will request Harry, our Human resources manager to send up these files", Alex said respectfully," you do know you can always ask me who are the bad ones". "I have other work for you to do" Adrianna replied, " John was a busy man and you knew what his plans were. Let us execute it cleanly like he would. I MEAN I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HE WAS THE CEO UNTIL YESTERDAY".
Adrianna picked up a stack of files, she opened the first one. "We will go through this together".Adrianna read out the details of the file"ADAM SEELANDBeen in the company for two years. No disciplinary action, no warnings".
Alex went out and returned with the old and vulnerable group, or so to say. They were the staff who were there in the company when it had just started and stayed. But they were not loyal. They were not loyal to the Smiths. But Adrianna knew that they had changed sides to keep their jobs. It was more like a forced decision. She knew these people had not much of a choice but she wanted to hear it from their mouths.
