10. Clearing Doubts "I'm leaving," Wynter said from the dining room."Sure, don't be long today, and please return soon," Sabrina said. She, too, was preparing to go to work."Bye, Daddy," she said as she kissed Travis on the cheek and exited.She had been ecstatic from the moment she awoke. She assumed her hormones were causing her problems. again."Hush, Wynter, it's not like he's going to eat you alive or something, and stop being dumb," she chided herself before exiting the vehicle."Let's go, don't appear strange," she said to herself as she stepped out of her car."Good morning, Tessa," she said as soon as she walked into her room, where Tessa was setting up her table.There was still one hour before the hospital opened to visitors and patients, and Wynter had a practice of doing rounds on all the dogs kept under surveillance."Good morning, Wynter," she said, smiling."Are there any casualties?" Wynter queried whether it was Ethan's department to investigate, but since he was o

12. We Meet again“Get up, sleepyhead,” Harris said to Wynter.Wynter sighed and opened her eyes, but she hesitated to get up. She blinked a few times, still nestled in her bed.“Please leave me alone, Harris. I need more sleep, and I’m not in the mood for an argument,” Wynter moaned.“How about your work?” Harris asked, lying down beside her.“It’s my hospital, and I can take a day off whenever I want,” Wynter replied, turning away and covering her face from him. Just then, Sabrina walked in and overheard their entire exchange.“Wynter, you never take a day off. What’s going on?” Harris asked concern etched on his face as he noticed his sister didn’t seem well.Sabrina gave him a stern look. “Leave her alone,” she urged, waving for Harris to step away, cutting him off once again.“All right,” Harris relented as he got out of bed.Sabrina sat down next to Wynter, tenderly caressing her hair. “Do you have anything you’d like to discuss?” she asked gently.“No, Mama Iris, I just don’t fe

14. A Start Of New FriendshipWynter tried to get into the swing of things quickly, but the excitement of meeting Shadrach seemed to slow time down. No matter how many patients she saw, it felt as if time stood still.Despite this, she persisted in her efforts and eventually completed her work. "I see someone is excited to leave," Wynter remarked as she passed Ethan on her way out. He had just exited the operating room, removing his blood-splattered gloves and tossing them into the trash."I just feel like leaving soon," he replied. Wynter attempted to brush it off, but his hurried expression was a dead giveaway."Hmm..." Ethan stepped closer, scrutinizing her. "Why do I smell lies here?" Wynter hurriedly tried to correct her stuttering speech. "N-No! Why would I lie to you?""Maybe you're going somewhere and don’t want me to know. A date, perhaps?" Ethan raised an eyebrow, a teasing smirk on his face.Wynter was at a loss for words, and Ethan’s chuckle left her friend dumbfounded."

16. Shadrach's Past When Wynter asked Shadrach about how he lost his sight and if he wanted to discuss it, he could have easily shrugged it off. However, for the very first time, he felt tired of holding everything within him. He wanted to let go of the burden that was weighing on his shoulders. Though he was certain that he couldn't tell Wynter everything, he could at least share a part of it with her. This way, he could start opening up to others, just as his doctors had advised.Seeing Shadrach lost in his thoughts, Wynter began to regret bringing up the topic. Perhaps it had triggered something he didn't want to mention, or maybe he was struggling to find the right words to express his emotions, fearing that it might scare her away.She took a deep breath and glanced at their hands, resting on the bench by their sides. Approaching gently, Wynter reached out for his hands. Shadrach flinched initially but soon relaxed upon realizing it was Wynter.Wynter started, "Shadrach, if you d

18. Bonds and ResponsibilitiesThe next day, Wynter was preparing to go to her clinic when, once again, her little brother interrupted her."Wyn Wyn, are you going to the clinic today?" Hunter pouted at Wynter. It was the start of his vacation, and the King family had yet to decide on their annual family vacation. Normally, they would plan it according to everyone's schedules and go somewhere secluded to spend quality time together. However, it had only been a week since Hunter's vacation began, and he was already bored staying home alone."Yes, sweetie," Wynter replied, sitting down to be at eye level with him. "Why do you look sad, munchkin?"Hunter puckered his lips, his eyes glistening with unshed tears. "Wyn Wyn, I'm bored. Nobody is home, everyone is busy. Nobody cares about me. Nobody loves me," he explained, his voice breaking. Hunter tended to stumble over his words when he was emotional, although his speech was usually very clear.Wynter reassured him, "Not at all, baby.
