DOCTOR STRANGE

70

Ezekiel,

“just because you are now the director of this place, you think I don’t know how weak you are and you have always been? You think you are better than everyone else. You are using my weaknesses against me? huh!! What a joke. You think I will be threatened by it, that mere video? never!! I will never sign those documents. You can no longer use them against me. I will never be with you, like you wanted.” I spoke. “my decision to never be with you will always be as stiffened as it has always been.”

“do you think I am that stupid. I know you won’t be threatened by it. You are as impatience as you have always been.” He said looking calm now. “I don’t give threats!! It’s an offer. You know Gabriel logan, the one you killed in that operation, his son is a renowned news reporter. If you don’t accept my offer, you will lose everything that you had worked so hard for all your life. This will rip your reputation to the smallest shreds possible. You will be nothing”

Yet, I didn’t care to move a slight inch.

“I have many witnesses; all the nurses and doctors. I'll drag you to the court if I have to.”

“do you think they will risk their jobs and career for some thing as stupid as justice. If I want, I can destroy you career through this. but all I am asking you to do is beg me to be with you. And I'll do as you ask. What’s the big deal if a man died, media and public will believe whatever statement I will give? If I can blame it on you, I can blame it on others too. just beg me and for that I'm offering a better position maybe I'll make you my assistant, or you can be the head surgeon of this hospital, you won’t even have to work so much. And you'll be paid more.” He spoke. “it’s not a bad offer….” He added smirking.

“huh!! You think you can make me do anything. You don’t know me well. I'll resign myself. You can't use me.” I punched him in the face making him hit the floor.

He stood back up, wiping the blood off of his lips he said in anger, “I'll make you regret what you did.”

I threw my ID on his face and stride out of his office.

My head was hurting and my heart was pounding. I was trying to not show him who affected my being is but I could no longer keep up with the pretence.

“I'll make you regret this.” he yelled behind my back.

“you career is destroyed, no one in this entire nation will accept you anymore. You will see what power I had. You are destroyed!!! Destroyed.”

All his words were falling on my ears, I was crying, the warm tears were no longer in my control. They were just flowing from my eyes dripping on my t-shirt.

I slammed the door behind and leaned against the wall, resting my head on it I closed my watery eyes.
