Chapter 1 Second Chance

Just as I was trying to figure out whether this was reality or some impossible fantasy, a rough shove from behind snapped me back to myself and sent me staggering several feet forward."Next! Don't get in the way! We're all here for Dr. Melson! It took me three hours in line, and you're not cutting it!"Claire, one of the nurses, caught me before I could fall. "Hey! She's a doctor here. Don't push her!" She looked at me. "Are you alright, Dr. Greenwood?"This place was familiar. Yes, I'd been reborn. In my previous life, my boyfriend asked me to teach his junior the ropes. She was a self-proclaimed miracle worker. Our first patient was a car crash victim who had to have his right leg amputated. Yvonne Melson, however, stopped me before I could perform the surgery."That's irresponsible, Dr. Greenwood. We must do our best for every patient."I stared at the medical report that stated otherwise and sighed. But to my astonishment, after a week of completely unrelated massages fro

Chapter 2 Race Against Time

Donald acted as though he had only just noticed me. Impatience flashed in his eyes as he yanked my arm and dragged me away from the office. "Don't get in Yvonne's way. You don't even have patients to tend to, so go home and get some rest."I nodded, but my silence only made Donald more brazen. "I told you she was talented. Everyone used to call you the best healer in town, but she surpassed you easily. I have surgery later. You can go home by yourself."He shoved the thermos into my arms, turned, and left without another word.I saw him off and called the donation department. "I'm donating my whole body. Get the process done ASAP. And I'm starting from the kidneys."The donation department's doctors were surprised to see me. "It's just one wrong diagnosis, Dr. Greenwood. Suicide is overkill.""Yeah, this is beyond throwing a tantrum. I can see why they call you arrogant. Killing yourself just because the intern one-upped you is extreme."Everyone wanted to talk me down and have

Chapter 3 Press On

Despite the pain, I crawled into the elevator. The group chasing me nearly caught up, but the doors slid shut just before their hands could reach me.Sweat soaked through my shirt as pain surged through my body, clinging tightly to my skin. Watching the floor numbers climb, I finally let out a breath of relief. The pain in my legs was giving way to a sense of numbness, and I knew time was running out.The disembodied voice announced, "11th Floor, Donation Department."The scream for help died in my throat as the doors slid away to reveal the trio standing outside. "Where do you think you're going, Dr. Greenwood?"They were all breathing hard, but I felt as if my very soul had frozen with fear."God, you can run. Good thing we caught up to you, Dr. Greenwood.""Stop messing around, Cynthia. Donation isn't a game. I can't let you kill yourself!""What's wrong with your legs, Dr. Greenwood?" Yvonne asked gently, though there was nothing gentle in her eyes. "Maybe we should take y

Chapter 4 Hope

My heart nearly stopped beating. Slowly, stiffly, I turned my head. It was Adam Keelman, from the donation department. The sight of him brought me relief, and I sucked in air greedily. "Let's begin the surgery, Dr. Keelman."That surprised him. "I thought you'd opted out. Did Dr. Flemont not talk to you? You shouldn't make any rash…"I put a finger against his lips. There was no time, so I went straight to my final plea.I dropped to my knees and begged him. "Please, you must help me. This is the only way I can survive. Please, you have to trust me."Adam stared at me, wide-eyed with disbelief. I was rumpled and disheveled, and he heaved a sigh but eventually gave a nod.I was already in the operating room when the trio came. The surgery was underway, and Yvonne punched the wall. "Damn it! We're too late!"Zoey helped her up, cruel delight flashing in her eyes. "Let's go, Yvonne. You can't save her if she doesn't want to be saved. We've done what we could. No one can blame us."

Chapter 5 Is It True

The video showed Yvonne surrounded by the patient's family, with Donald standing in front of her like a shield. The crowd's fury was aimed straight at Yvonne, but all she could do was murmur in a daze."Impossible. The surgery was per…" Then, Yvonne jerked her head up. She glared at the cameras darkly like she could see me through the lens.It did not take long for me to be praised as the best healer once again.…Soon, the hospital called and asked me to return to my position.The scandal was already on the verge of getting shut down on the day of my return. I was given back my spot, while Donald and Yvonne were standing."Maybe you should let Yvonne have this. She's already used to the spot, and she needs it more than you do after what's happened. You won't die even if you move to another office."Donald never took my side when I was forced to change. He never took my side when it came down to it. "Why should I? This is my spot to begin with."My defiance didn't sit right wit

Chapter 6 She Comes Back

That was impossible. I had cut off my connection with Yvonne, so why had everything returned to the same tragic path?AIDS was something that couldn't be completely cured even now. It would slowly chip away at my immune system. Death would still come for me, only slower this time.I stumbled back home, shoved PEP into my mouth, and swallowed the pills dry.Then, I locked myself in my room and combed through all the details in hopes to find anything that I'd missed. A month ago, Yvonne had been the one who took my checkup report. That was when she stole my blood sample.Every time she consulted her patients, she'd ask for their dates of birth. Anyone who didn't share my birth date, month, or year didn't make the list. If I were to die bearing the diseases she'd transferred to me, the patients would all live.That was why I signed that consent letter after I came back from death. I thought salvation was through cutting off all the organs that weren't mine, and I apparently died in

Chapter 7 A Bright Future

Zoey guffawed. "The report. We saw it, Cynthia! We're not stupid!"My eyes were on Yvonne. Coolly, I said, "Even Dr. Melson has misdiagnosed her patients. The same thing could've happened for my case. Even if I have AIDS, Dr. Melson is the famous miracle worker. She should be able to save me easily."Yvonne bit her lower lip so hard it turned white. My challenge was something she didn't see coming, and she wanted to refuse, but Donald pulled her into his arms."I know you're kind, Yvonne, but sometimes you should be tougher. Don't offer your kindness to parasites. It's only going to hurt you."I saw the disgust in Donald's eyes, and I'd also noticed the hatred. Perhaps he thought I nearly infected him with AIDS, but he had no idea the real witch was the very same woman he was holding in his arms.I refused to waste my time with them, so I made an appointment at hematology to have another checkup.Donald still wanted to vent. In his mind, the girlfriend he had believed was pure
