“Dude, let go,” I snapped once Gio and I were far enough from the others, yanking my wrist free from his grip. I had to make him let go, just in case I got the wrong idea and started thinking he was pulling me away for a date or something.Shut up, Alli. You’re a guy right now, I scolded myself in my head.“Can you shut your fucking mouth in front of them about what happened in your house and that damn hospital?” he finally barked.I rolled my eyes, not even hiding the irritation. Oh, now he talks? A few minutes ago, he was basically mute, and now here he is, back with his sharp tongue and attitude like nothing happened.I stared at him for a second, narrowing my eyes. I tried to calm myself down because God knows what might come out of my mouth if I let loose. I had to remind myself, I’m in his territory now, and that’s dangerous.“What exactly do you need from me, huh? Why can’t you just say it straight to my face instead of making other people speak for you?” I started, already fee

"Are we there yet?" I asked, clearly annoyed. We'd been walking for what felt like forever, and if I had known we’d be walking this far, I would’ve finished my food first before agreeing to come with Jett.“We’re almost there, don’t worry,” he said casually.My steps were getting heavier with every move. I didn’t sign up for this. I went out to clear my head and escape all the stress, not to go on some boring, endless walk through who-knows-where.“You sure we’re close? I still need to get ready, and I’ve got work later,” I grumbled, already regretting not staying in bed.I stopped in my tracks the moment I realized there were no more footsteps behind me, Jett was no longer beside me.I was just about to turn around to check when suddenly, a cloth reeking of chemicals was pressed against my mouth.Jett.I struggled hard against his grip, trying to twist out of his hold, but no matter how much I fought, he was simply stronger.Freaking hell, that stinks, I cursed internally.Am I being

The scorching rays of the sun were what finally woke me up. I was about to shift positions to ease the stiffness in my neck when it hit me, I wasn’t even lying down. I’d dozed off sitting upright by the bed because of one demanding patient who’d claimed my bed for himself last night.Speaking of that patient...I quickly lifted my head and nearly had a heart attack when I saw the bed empty.Panic surged through me as I searched every corner of my house, even the toilet, just in case he squeezed himself in there somehow. But nope, nothing. The bastard was gone. Vanished. He really ran off.And not even a single goodbye?Not a thank you?Not even a number?Unbelievable.“God, life is tough! It’s hard being a good citizen in this country when you have to help people like that,” I grumbled loudly to myself, trying to shake off the irritation buzzing in my head.Since it was still early, I decided to head back to bed and catch up on the good sleep I missed. I didn’t even enjoy my nap earli

Even though I wasn’t entirely sure if the man lying unconscious in front of me was really my patient from room 304, I rushed over to him without a second thought, driven purely by my instincts as a nurse.I closed the distance between us in a heartbeat, not caring that I had to toss my umbrella aside just so it wouldn’t slow me down.“Sir? Sir, are you awake?” I called repeatedly while gently tapping his cheek.He must be running a fever, I thought as a wave of heat met my hand.“Sir, please stay awake,” I urged when I saw his eyes flutter open, struggling to focus.Carefully, I lifted him from the floor and laid him across my lap. “Sir, I’m taking you to the hospital.”“Sir?” I asked, confused, as I noticed him whispering again. Wanting to hear better, I leaned my ear closer to his lips. “What is that, sir?”“D-don’t take me… to the hospital. Anywhere b-but not there,” he struggled to say, his voice weak and trembling. When I finally caught his gaze, he completely lost consciousness.

"In breaking news, the child of prominent CEO Connie Vitale is now confirmed to be residing in Canada."As I arrived at the nurse’s station, I saw Evelyn, my workmate, completely engrossed in what she was watching. “Hey! You’re so focused!” I said, trying to startle her. I couldn’t help but chuckle when she actually jumped in surprise.“Nothing, I just find it strange,” she said, pouting slightly. “Connie Vitale is super well-known, but not even a single photo of her child has ever surfaced.”Evelyn’s expression immediately changed, like she suddenly remembered something.“By the way, where have you been? You’ve been gone for so long.”“Period leak,” I blurted out before I could stop myself. My heart skipped a beat at how quickly the words escaped my mouth.Evelyn laughed and lightly slapped my arm. “You’re crazy! You know what? If you weren’t so good-looking, I’d seriously mistake you for a woman with how soft you talk.”I sighed in relief, realizing she still didn’t fully suspect m
