"Doctor angel, I did not have any stomach
bug last night. Thank you," Little patient
Mia said to Dr. Bianca as she was in the
children's ward during her round.
"You are a very good girl Mia, that's why
fairy granted you with a strong stomach.
Now you are all ready to go home and watch
Disney," Bianca replied with the same smile
she held for everyone.
As she finished her round it was already
eleven in the morning and she had missed
her breakfast. Even if she never had proper
breakfast, she wished she could arrange
some time to have her breakfast as her
weight was dropping drastically from the
day she joined the hospital.
It was the number one hospital in Italy and
she was grateful she could pack a job here.
It had been two months since she joined the
hospital and started living independently in
a small 1BK room near her hospital leaving
behind the orphanage that sheltered her till
twenty-three years of age.
Even though she was an orphan and raised
in an orphanage, she was a bright girl. She
found her way to the medical field and
inspiration to treat the children. With the
hope of healthier life for the kids of her
orphanage she joined medicines and not later than two years of her enrollment, three
years old Zina from the same orphanage she
lived had an atrial septal defect (ASD).
With that she was motivated more to
become a doctor. One day she would cure
little Zina but this dream was still to be
fulfilled even after three years.
She had been saving almost all of her
savings for Zina yet she was far away from
collecting five percent of the operating
charges.
She sighed and opened her cup noodle and poured hot water to take her brunch, until the night it was her food.
Just when she turned with the cup noodle in
her hand, she bumped with something hard
and spilled all of her cup noodles burning
her hand.
"Watch where you are going." The voice
came with authority and irritation.
"I am sorry." She apologized lowering her
head.
"Does your sorry undo the mess you have
created?" The man held her burnt hand and
she hissed.
"What happened? Are you mute or deaf?
You low life people don't even have eyes of
their own. Do you even know this suit costs
millions and you can't even pay if you sell
yourself."
That was the final string for Bianca. She rose
her head and slapped the notorious man
with all her force.
Never in a lifetime had she seen someone
ruthless like him. Her eyes widen when she
saw the man with a fire ignited in his eyes
like he was ready to murder her with his
bare hand.
"Leave her Sandro, we don't want to
fight anymore." The other man with him
suggested.
"I want this little tramp out of this hospital
immediately," Alessandro barked and Bianca
had her mouth open and throat dry. What just happened? Who is he and how
could he dismiss her from this hospital. She
works here.
"Alessandro, calm down." The man tried to
calm the fire down but it did nothing to him.
"I am not in the mood Darren, I have already
lost my mind in the meeting and this ugly
girl here just dropped her low-class food on
my branded suit. Imagine the humiliation."
Alessandro huffed.
"The low-life food you were talking about
was my breakfast and lunch which you
ruined. I don't have eyes on my back to look
where you came from and whom I stumble
with. How dare you insult me when you are
speaking nothing but shit." Bianca spit.
"Take her out of the hospital and make sure she does not step a foot in this hospital again," Alessandro ordered and that was final.
Not less than half an hour later Bianca was
out of the hospital, jobless and soon to be
homeless with no job to support it.
With such tragedy she went to her real
home, orphanage to cry in front of her
mother, Roma. She was the one who raised
Bianca. She was the one that supported all
her and made the lady she was today.
But Bianca was devastated today and only Roma could collect her.
"What do I do mother? I have lost the final
string to save Zina. I have lost my job, I have lost my hope." Bianca cried on Roma's lap. "Be strong honey, when god closes one door
he opens the other. We will find some way to
get her treated." Roma caressed the fragile
girl on her lap.
"Zina must be disappointed with me right?
I told her she could play again in a few months but I could not be trustworthy enough." Bianca sobbed remembering her
promise to little Zina.
"Nobody is disappointed dear, the phase will
go as God is always with us, watching us and
helping us." Bianca nodded to Roma's advice.
She had the worst day of her life where her
dreams were shattered and stepped on it like
dirt. She was sad and helpless. She thought
she should have been careful and watched
her move. Only if she had not bumped with
Alessandro guy she would have her job and
hope back.
Only if...
