Dimitri looked at her vitals. Almost everything was low. Extremely low.
“What happened? I heard she fainted during the surgery?” Dr. Manor asked him. He just nodded clenching his jaw harshly.
“I asked her to do the suturing and the next thing I know, all of the instruments on the ground and a loud thud, with all the nurses, screaming.” He closed Ayra’s file and looked at Dr. Manor.
“What is it?” She asked him.
“Hypotension,” he said grinding his teeth together.
(Hypotension- Low blood pressure, which can cause fainting or dizziness because the brain doesn’t receive enough blood.)
“We have started with Fludrocortisone, hopefully, that will be enough and she’ll be up soon,” he said glaring at Ayra’s frail body which was laying on the hospital bed, motionless.
“She’ll be fine,” Dr. Manor assured him
Her eyes fluttered open only to welcome a white ceiling. Groaning, she got up to a sitting position. She hissed in slight pain when she moved her right hand. She looked down to see a needle attached to the back of her palm. She snapped her eyes instantly to what they were giving her.She got off the bed and took the bottle of liquid attached to the tube that connected with her hand and read it.“Fludrocortisone,” she furrowed her brows.“First-line treatment for…”“Hypotension,” someone cut her and completed her sentence. She slowly turned around to see Dimitri standing by the door with his arms crossed against his chest.Surprisingly, she didn’t cower away nor did she avert her gaze from him. He moved to her, sliding his hands into his pockets gracefully.“You lost your consciousness due to hypotension,” he breathed out.“oh…” was the only thing Ayra mana
“Are you sure?” He asked her once again and she nodded her head vigorously, so he’d just leave her alone.“Just call me if you need anything, okay?” He told her softly while stroking her cheeks with the back of his hand.“Yes,” she said softly but she was a bit annoyed. He got up from the bed and walked towards the door and stopped. He turned to her one last time and muttered, “Good night.”“Night,” she said with a soft smile gracing her lips looking at his deep blue eyes filled with concern for her. He nodded and walked out closing the door behind him softly.She sighed and rested her head on the pillow. She made herself comfortable on the soft and comfy mattress and bought the duvet closer to her chin and rested in its warmth. She closed her eyes only for sleep to invade her.A couple of hours ago,Ayra took her bag and put all of her medicines ins
She was sitting in the living room waiting for Dimitri. Joanna told her that he’d usually be home by nine. She was growing impatient each and every second. She looked up at the clock it was 09:30 PM. She just thought that he might have been caught up with a patient.Joanna left for her nephew’s wedding the following morning after breakfast and was on leave for at least a week. Ayra was all alone in the big mansion and she didn’t like it one bit. Sure there was security but they were outside. Joanna had already prepared much for Ayra so she didn’t have a problem with that.She was freaking out with all the thunder echoing through the house. She was constantly biting her nails to relieve her anxiety. It was raining heavily. She wasn’t scared of thunder or dark but the thought she was alone scared her.She took out her phone and decide to listen to some music to calm herself. She plugged in her headphones and clicked on “Can&rsqu
“Why did you freak out the last time I stopped you from jumping out of the car?” Dimitri asked the one question that was bothering him the most as they drove back home.She snapped her head towards him. She was taken aback by his sudden question. She looked out the window and bit her lip.“Why?” She questioned him back. She didn’t know where all of this was going but she didn’t want to share anything with him. She didn’t feel safe and she wasn’t sure if she could trust him just yet.He didn’t reply but just kept driving at a constant speed. He didn’t know why asked the question in the first place, well aware of the fact that she wouldn’t reply to it.“My mother…” she trailed and closed her eyes.“My mother was driving me to my friend's place for a play date when I was four and I was getting restless. She tried and told me that I should stay still but I didn&r
After the surgery, she walked back to the ER to look at the patients she hadn’t attended in two days.The surgery was a long and successful procedure. She was a little tired due to standing there for 6 hours but it was fine. She decided to check on the patients and call it a day.Dimitri was right when he included her in the surgery, as it did give her a boost to her confidence. She was glad that he chose her over so many other people which naturally made her want to work betterShe looked at her phone for the time and walked to the front desk.“Can I get a list of all of the patients, Sheila?” Ayra asked her. Sheila just nodded and looked between some memo pads before handing her one.Ayra took it from her and thanked and looked through the patient’s list. She was surprised to come across one particular name.“Hey, how is Thomas still here?” Ayra asked Sheila looking up.“Dr. Manor let
“Hey, are you okay?” Rhea asked Arya, placing her hand on her shoulder.Ayra paused for a second before continuing to sob. She didn’t want people around her. She repulsed them.“Ayra,” she called out in her soft voice. Ayra sniffled and wiped her tears off before looking up at Rhea.But she only hugged Rhea and began sobbing. Rhea wrapped her arms around her and whispered some comforting words but Ayra was beyond shattered for those words to affect her.“What happened Ayra?” She asked her.“Is it fine if I don’t want to share?” Ayra asked her in her small voice.“Of course it is. Why wouldn’t it be?” Rhea comforted her.“I want to go back to my aunt. I miss her so much,” Ayra’s voice was small.“I don’t know what Harry might have done to her. She may be in trouble or worse, he might have tried to kill her,” sh
He marched towards her hurriedly and roughly yanked her arm. Ayra gasped in shock but her emotions soon changed into horror when she noted how angry and scary Dimitri looked.He pulled her inside with him not bothering to care if he was hurting her or not.His hold on her was extremely harsh and his fingernails dug into her milky white skin.“Dr. Vittori, please. You are hurting me,” she said as she dropped her bag and held his arm, and tried to remove his fingers one by one.Without listening to her, he pulled her up the stairs and to her room and pushed her inside, roughly, making her stumble.She balanced herself holding the edge of the bed and turned around to look at Dimitri, who was seething. He reached her in two long strides and held both of her wrists behind her back and backed her to the wall behind her.It all happened so fast, that the next thing Ayra knows is that she is pinned to a wall with both of her
Itching her scalp, she wondered if wearing this dress would be right. She hesitantly took off the lid of the box the dress was in.She still remembered the way he apologized to her and handed her the dress but more than that, she was afraid of eye contact. She vividly remembers how he punished her by spanking her.A slight blush crept up her cheek reminiscing yesterday’s events. For some stupid reason, she liked it.She saw the beautiful dress was folded and neatly placed in the box.Pinching the corners of the sleeves, she pulled it out of the box. Her eyes widened at how beautiful the dress was.She was awe-struck."So beautiful," She couldn’t help herself as the words escaped her lips.She ran her hand over the embroidery. Tiny crystals ran all over the dress. A small smile played on her lips wondering why Dimitri chose this specific dress for her.She wasted no time and changed herself in the d
