SCARLETT ROSE
Entering the luxurious gynecological clinic, I inhale the faint scent of lavender in the air.
The cream-colored walls attempt to convey calmness, but they have no effect on me.
Sitting in the reception area, I drum my fingers on my phone, trying to distract myself by scrolling through text messages.
Kieran really wanted to come with me, but I know he’s always tied up in meetings, and I didn’t want to disrupt his work because I know how much he loves it.
I hear my name called and take a deep breath before standing up.
“It’s okay, it’s just a routine check-up.", I murmur to myself as I walk toward the consultation room.
The doctor greets me with her usual warm smile.
She’s a woman with gray hair and a calm voice, and I usually feel at ease with her.
