CHAPTER FIVE

DOCTOR ABBIGAIL'S POV

Eos Hezekiah's attitude is becoming annoying each passing day.

Though I like the fact that he is not here and I'll be in charge of this surgery.

Ever since he started working in this hospital, no one have ever recognize who I am.

I wonder why he is working in this hospital while he can possibly build a bigger one for himself.

Kids from a rich home behaving like brats.

I don't blame him though.

All thanks to him, I'll be handling this surgery.

"Will you come over the Operation theater or you want someone to die?" Doctor Khia yelled joting me out of my thoughts.

I hurriedly change to the theater dress code and dash out of my office.

I enter the theater and saw the laying figure.

I wish to save you beauty, I hope I can.

"I trust you Abbigail, even if Eos is not here you will do a good job, fighting!" She said boasting up my courage.

I breathed in and collect the scalpel from the tray the nurse was holding.

I open up the girl's stomach and started cleaning the wounded area.

I cut the affected part of her stomach, after much doing and undoing I stitch her up.

I was pleased with myself that I succeeded in the surgery.

Now my name will be recognized by folks out there who thought that there is no other good surgeon in this hospital except from Eos Hezekiah.

I was still engrossed in my thought when the noise call for my attention.

"What's going on?" I asked the panicked Nurse Khia.

"She is not breathing." She retorted

"What? Check the blood if it's still in fusing!" I ordered in panic.

I don't wanna have anybody die in my hands.

"Its not." She replied.

"Connect the oxygen immediately!" I ordered.

EOS HEZEKIAH'S POV

A knock woke me up.

"Come in." I ordered and a maid came inside my room.

"Someone is asking of you Master Javiña." She said.

Who could that be?

"Okay, I will be out in a second." I said. She bowed and went out.

After sleeping for some time, the tipsy I felt earlier clear from my eyes.

I decided to take a bath but decide against it.

I need to see the intruder who came here by this time if the night.

I wear my flip flop and stroll out of my room.

I climbed downstairs and was surprised to see Khia in my mansion.

"Khia?" I called since she was backing me.

She turned swiftly and face me.

"Thank goodness you're here Prof, there was an emergency at the hospital and since you said you were tired we allowed Abbigail to carry out the surgery.

After the surgery, it turns bad as the patient stopped breathing." She stated.

"What? Let me get my car key." I said and rushed upstairs to my room.

I came back again in my casual night dress.

I enter my car and drove off while Khia did the same.

After what took like fifteen minutes drive we arrived at the hospital.

I came down from my car and rushed inside the hospital.

I can't let another person to die in this hospital due to a common carelessness.

A nurse quickly hand over the theater dress to me and I wore it immediately.

"Where is the surgery taking place?" I asked Khia who was still trying to catch her breath.

"Upstairs, Opt number 27." She said and I run up.

I entered the Opt and the nurses breath in relieve.

Abbigail was already sweating profusely.

"Let me." I said and he pave way for me.

I used my stethoscope and check the girl but just like it was said she wasn't breathing.

I immediately noticed that something went wrong during the surgery.

"Scalpel." I ordered and the nurse brought in a new sterilized equipment.

I open her up again and started searching for the mistake, then it occur to me that she stitched up the skin with her bone making it impossible for her to live after that.

I cut out the stitches and clean up the mess before reattaching it again.

I stitched up her stomach and check the blood transfusion that was going on.

"Nurse Abbigail, call me when the patient wakes up maybe five to six hours from now." I said and she nodded.

I walk out of the Opt with Abbigail and Khia trailing behind me.

I get to my office and let loose.

"What the hell were you thinking when you were operating on her huh? Do you want to kill someone?" I yelled at her.

"No, if she had died you will be blame for it, cause you didn't take up your responsibility as the professor of this hospital." She fired back at me.

"Wow! You have grown wings a lot, anyways that's past." I said as I remove the theater wear and remove the glove before heading out.

"Doc Javiña, are you going back to your house?" Khia asked.

"Yes." I replied

"Okay, I am on night duty. Take care." She said before going back.

Khia is a good lady, she's respectful and intelligent, I have taste for ladies like her.

Intelligent and smart ladies, but too bad I see her as my junior sister.

No feelings attached.

I entered my car and drove off to my house.

LEXA'S POV

Thank God that Eos came early, else what would have be of my poor friend?

She was transfer from the Opt to a ward.

I looked at her and a tear escape from my eyes when I remember what Olympia said when I told her about the accident.

"She should die for all I care, I don't mind a dime." She said.

Okay that was just too much for my poor Ellie.

Where am I gonna get the money for her hospital bills?

I am just an orphan girl living, striving all alone to make end meets.

Where do I find money for my friend's bills?

Where should I start begging from?

Asian Hospital is a hospital known for rich people but I brought her here without thinking, maybe it is because I was confidence that she will be treated better here.

As far as she's save, the money is a little riddle to solve.

I keep looking after her till I fell asleep.

KHIA'S POV

Why was he looking at the patient like that?

Eos and I studied at the same university, we were course mate and we did our convocation the same time.

I have been crushing on him all this while.

Since he is not the type that talk too much, I kept my feelings secluded.

He respect me unlike how he behaves to others.

I wish that respect can turn to love because I am in love with him so much.

Two years ain't two minutes.

I went back to my office and took my record and went to attend to my patients.

At least I have to keep doing a good job in other not to end up like Marize.

I pity that Marize of a girl, she was never serious ever since she got employed to Asian Hospital so it was not surprising when I heard what she did.

I just hope that she come out soon.

Olympia wanted to call Lexa and ask her the hospital they're in but her ego couldn't let her.

Abbigail on the other hand keep regretting why he talked back at Eos Hezekiah, now his stay in the hospital is under probation.

Eos couldn't just get the patient face off his mind.

The sleeping face keep appearing to him.

"Who is this young girl?" He keep asking himself for over a hundred times.

He slept off with the thought of the young girl on his mind.
