"She is fine!" Mr.Bhat said after he stopped hugging us. "She is fine thanks to you doctor Miller and you doctor Care." He said, closing his palms and bowing to us. Ann's surname is Care? Why does that sounds familiar? I quickly brushed off that for now, I can't be dealing with that too. I smiled politely to Mr.Bhat, bowing to him, as he did to us."You don't have to thank us for that Mr.Bhat, we did our best." I said firmly. I was so proud of myself, so fulfilled, so good about myself! We saved that girl's life! "She is sleeping now." Mr.Bhat said, approaching Ada's bed. He slowly and gently caressed her hair and smiled. He looked peaceful. "You don't need to wake her up, we will just do a little checkup." I said as I grabbed a pen out of my uniform. I checked her temperature, it was 36.6 Celsius which is quite normal. Excellent."She may feel dizzy or groggy as she come around from general anaesthetic." I said to him, caressing her hand. "We will check her blood pressure regularly.
"What the hell is going on?!" I yelled a little bit louder than I expected. Few doctors that was passing by with patients looked at me concerned. I brushed it off. Soon enough, my mom will hear about this, but I can't deal with this now."Dr.Miller." Veronica called my name in so calming voice, my anger vanished in thin air. I slowly turned around. She looked at me, smiling acidly, slightly tilting her head."I'm sorry." I said to her. She didn't say anything, she just shrugged her shoulders and smiled. I felt bad for not knowing how to control. "Let's continue this in my office, shall we?" I asked, faking a smile and politeness so we don't draw any more attention. I felt eyes all over me as patients and hospital staff were suddenly walking slowly, trying to catch a glimpse of our conversation. Miller's daughter causing the drama. Big news. Darla and Delia both started walking behind me as I tried to go into my office as soon as possible. My head was spinning really fast and I felt l
My head was at the verge of blowing up like the ones in cartoons. There was too much information I needed to cope, too deafening sounds, everything was spinning. Me, the room, everything! I felt numb and over-touched, cranky, mad, all feelings you could think of and none of them in the same time. I didn't even knew until now that that's possible.My shift ended vaguely, honestly I'm happy I didn't kill anybody! All I could think is how I will eventually go home and tell Hannah everything what was heavy on my crazy noggin.Darla didn't say anything for the rest of our shift. I could only imagine what's in her head now, poor girl...I got a text from Hannah asking if I'm ready for our date night. I was more then ready but I wanted to do one more thing before I head home."Hi you..." John's head lifted up when he saw me entering his room. "Did I woke you up?" I asked, carefully closing the door. I stood by them as my legs wouldn't let me come closer to him for some reason."I won't bite
"Sleepyhead..." I heard a soft voice near me. Air smelled like our toothpaste and mix of herbs from Hannah's shampoo. Although I smiled lightly, knowing it was her, I still didn't want to wake up."Nooo..." I whined and turned on the other side. Hannah smiled and leaned on me, sighing deeply."When did you even got home last night?" She asked, still on my body. I moaned, not happy with that. "I know what will make you got up." She said, slowly getting up. I moaned again, feeling lighter and relieved that I can just roll over on the other side of my bed, completely ignoring her. Realizing it wasn't the smartest move as she grabbed my legs and started pulling me out, I started laughing."Stoooop, leave me in peace!" I managed to mumble as she continued to pull me up. I tried to budge but I couldn't. How the hell is she so strong?!"I got engaged!" Hannah exclaimed, finally letting me go."What?!" I lifted my head so rapidly, the whole room started spinning! She was screaming and jumping
"What the hell?" Hannah repeated herself because we ignored her the first time."What are you doing here?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes, still ignoring Hannah."Well, since you're not answering me, I came to make sure my girlfriend is still alive." Mike said coldly, clenching his jaw."As you see, I am so..." Filled with anger, I rolled my eyes."Can we talk?" He asked, slowly yet strongly grabbing my arm. I flinched, feeling pain. Hannah was just standing there, confused as she can be."Not a place or time Mike." I said firmly but I was visibly scared and that annoyed me. I shouldn't be afraid of him, I don't have a reason for that. Right?"Something happened?" He asked me, now looking genuinely concerned and confused. Then it hit me. He doesn't have a clue that I overheard his conversation. How could I be so stupid and let my emotions get the best of me?"We will talk later okay?" I said as my face softened. He looked at me, one eyebrow up, still mad. He growled under his voice an
"Stupid anatomy!" I began to fuss over the pages of Human anatomy, as I always do when I study, and I don't want to. Am I really the only person in this world who is so interested in medicine, who really want to learn about human body without actually learning anatomy? I mean, who even came up with all that Latin names for literally every little bone, muscle and blood vessels we have. Big test today my ass.Who even forced me to go to medical school if I knew how much I have to learn every day, and the day after that, and the day after that too! Shaking my head when I think about the reason why, became a regular twitch. And that reason is, neither more nor less, the Head surgeon of Seattle hospital. Of course, my mother. Tending to medicine comes naturally, they say. Like mother, like daughter. Maybe not in our case. I mean, don't get me wrong, the idea of becoming a surgeon is more then appealing and I always dreamed about becoming someone who can save another on
As I entered a hallway of the college, first I noticed the freshmans. Hannah and I were once that. Nobodys. We call them fresh meat for Gorilla now. You know, the scary, gray and strict one? Freshmans are everywhere. Lost and confused. Neither of them know each other, they are all alone in this. Accept the ones who got here with their friend, like me and Hannah. When we first walked in this hallway we were just as confused as they are now. Well, me. Hannah was taking it like a champ! ***"Wow.""I know."We were both super excited when we recieved a letter from the principal of the college that they will be happy to have us on board. Our best acknowledgement of past years as med students and working our asses off. University of Washington is one of the top choices you can go if you want to become the best doctor, surgeon or even just a nurse! Their best students get the chance to win internship in Seattle Hope hospital.
Hannah noticed my pale face, and probably some sweat drops on my forehead. I felt my whole body became numb and my heart was beating so loud I thought everyone in this room can hear it."Are u ok?” She asked me very slowly but I couldn't answer. I tried to, but I just couldn't. “Mrs.Tomlinson? Jessica is not feeling well.” Hannah exclaimed loudly with her voice shaking. Under normal circumstances, I would get all girly about the fact that she is genuinely worried about me. Now, all I could think about is the fact that he will see me and I can't risk that!“No, no, shut up!” I began slapping Hannah under the table, so nobody can see me. She noticed but she didn't even looked at me, she was just shaking her head in disapproval. She was waiting for Gorilla to come over. Students started looking over their shoulders, they whispered something I couldn't understand which was so annoying but whatever. I'm really not in the mood. Will he recognize me?
