Decisions

—You have to decide until twelve. She took one last look at his before trotting out of the room and running toward her tutor's office. He was going to listen to her, who did he think he was? he had no right to speak for her. She opened the door without warning. —What is that about going to a patient's house?! Why haven't you talked to me first? —Melek.. They are going to pay a large sum of money, both to you and to the hospital. —With what is that.. Money. And why me? —I have been expressly asked to be you —answered her tutor—. Look Melek, I know that next month you start to go into the operating room and calm down, you are going to do it. You just have to stay with them until Mr. Kast is fully recovered. —I should keep with them? —she asked confused. —You will live with them. They will pay you for your work and of course you will have the salary of the hospital as all these months ago, as soon as you return you will enter the operating room regardless of when you return. —So if I come back in a week.. —Yes. The sooner you finish your work there, the sooner you will be in the operating rooms —she smiled. The bastard knew that starting the rotation in the operating room was something she had been waiting for a long time and it was one of her dreams. It was going to be impossible to refuse, she knew it very well so without giving it much more thought, she accepted. —It's okay, it's okay... —suddenly an idea crossed her head—. I will accept with the condition of having guard on Friday instead of Wednesday. —Melek.. —he touched the bridge of his nose, annoyed—. It's okay. When you finish your shift, you have to stop by to sign some documents, okay? —she nodded—. Let's go to work! She went mad all morning and was grateful with her soul that she had few reports to fill out. At eleven in the morning she was able to stop for breakfast. She sat at the table closest to the glass window, the rain had stopped and the sun's rays were coming out shyly from the clouds, warming her face slightly. She closed her eyes and allowed herself the luxury of taking five more minutes. She began to think with a colder mind, it would be good for her to be out of the hospital for a few days and it would be even better to be close to that family. She had longed for David Kast's death for five years, especially on the nights when she woke up sweating and crying over the memories of her brother's death. After that she had to change her identity along with her parents' so that they couldn't find them, and from what she had ascertained, he didn't remember her face either. But she did remember him, knew all of them except Derek Kast. After breakfast she gathered her courage and went to see him. She omitted knocking on the door. —Don't worry, I'm fine. Derek spoke through the screen of the cell phone from which voices came without rhyme or reason. He just smiled at the screen and frowned every now and then trying to listen to everyone who was speaking. A woman on the other end of the line ended the call. —Well guys, you already tired Derek too much! Come on come on, goodbye —the boys began with their goodbyes—. Bye Derek, see you soon. Get well! —Bye guys, thanks for the call! See you soon, I love you all! —when the call was cut, that's when he saw her—. Hello Nurse! —he greeted her happily. —Hi. How do you feel? you have a pain? —he shook his head, still smiling—. Well, that's a good sign. Since I have accepted the proposal.. —Have you accepted? —he asked, surprised. —Yes, so I should introduce myself before going to your house. My name is Melek Tassone. —Derek Kast, nice to meet you. They shook hands, generating a current of electricity between them. She looked at him seriously while he smiled unabashedly. Melek noticed her teeth; They were nuclear target and were absolutely perfect except for the fangs that protruded slightly, making it look dangerous. She withdrew her hand quickly, wanting to gain his trust but it was making her nervous. She stepped back to keep her distance and looked at the stuffed animals that were still around the room. —My children have sent them to me —he explained. Melek began to cough loudly, on the verge of drowning. He tried to stand up in alarm but she stopped him with her hand. —Your children? —she managed to ask. —I work in an orphanage and each one of them are my children —Derek clarified with a shrug. Melek looked at him in amazement. How could a person like him work in a place like that? Could it be a good person surrounded by so much evil? She shook her head and after hitting the wheel of the dropper to make the medication go down faster, she made a move to leave. —When will I be discharged? —As soon as the medicine is finished you can leave, they will remove the line —she clarified as she walked out the door. At last her workday was over and after changing her clothes, washing up and checking in, she went to his tutor's office. It was empty. She snorted in frustration and waited after sending a pager. She inspected the heart surgeon's office; On one wall he had small pictures with spectacular drawings of hearts, behind his chair hung the numerous medical diplomas that he had garnered during all the years of his career as a surgeon and on each side two large mahogany wood shelves were filled with books. She smiled hopefully, one day she would have an office like that. His guardian ran in with his surgical gown and mask hanging around his neck. —I was in an emergency room —he explained apologetically—. You have to sign a small confidentiality agreement —Melek scowled at him and he continued—. The Kast family.. It's a powerful family. No one can know where they live or what happens within their walls. You have to take this very seriously Melek, they can be dangerous.. —Dangerous? —asked. —When you are there you will understand. If you need help, call this phone —he handed her a piece of paper and at that moment she knew that her tutor knew more than he was saying—. Here is the contract, you have to sign it. I'll keep a copy and they'll keep the original. —Okay but.. How do you know so much about that family? —I was part of them for a while. Melek waited for more information but her tutor had remained speechless. His gaze seemed to be thousands of kilometers away and she took the opportunity to skim over the detailed contract she had to sign. After a few minutes, she signed. —Well, here you go —she said, handing him the contract and pulling him out of her memories. Her tutor took the contract and when he didn't add anything else, she got up from the chair, took her bag and left. On the way, she said goodbye to his colleagues who started the afternoon shift and smiled as she went outside and realized that, although the air was still, the black clouds had completely disappeared. She sat in the car exhausted and considered calling her parents and telling them where she would be spending the next few days. She shook her head. It would be better not to inform them yet. She lived in a fairly humble neighborhood located between the coast and the hospital so she was surprised to see a black range rover outside her door. She got out of her car and without wanting to look like a gossipy person, she briskly walked to her door. She walked in and slipped off his white hospital slippers to put on her home shoes, hurried up the marble stairs, and headed for her room to collect extra clothes. While she was packing the small suitcase, there was a loud knock on the door. _________ Hi! How are you all? I hope it's ok. What do you think of the chapter? Who will be at Melek's house? See u in the next ep! xxx.
