Chapter 1 - Late.
*Dr. Raphael *
I'm late. Seriously late.
As I sped thru the highway, my thoughts turned to was my last surgery. The patient was a young man who had been suffering with pain for more than a year, refusing to get treatment even when he needed it. Now that the pain was completely unbearable, he came to me seeking help.
I sighed. I just don't get it why many wait until the very last moment to get help. I'm good at my job, but i'm no miracle worker...
I filtered to the fastest lane, cursing the heavy traffic, making me later than i already was. We were already late by an hour and my phone has been ringing every 5 mins with my sister asking me where i was. I'm rushing aren't i?
My mind now focused on this crazy situation. Wondering, why did i even agree to this?
Because i saw her picture and knew i had to meet her.
Even with just the picture, I was captivated by her intelligent blue-grey eyes and her smile that was captured perfectly. It was as if she had her private little joke. Somehow I felt like I have known her for years. My mind refusing to understand why there is a desperate need for me to meet her. My heart had only one word as an answer.
Mine
