My savior

Chapter 13

"Ok, Eva. I need you to lie on the couch since you are already on it. Lie on your back "

I did as I was told and lied on my back. Then, I saw Jane coming, crouching on her knees next to me, holding my hand.

"Don't worry, Eva. I'm here with you, okay? "

I nodded my head. Then, Dr. Miller came towards me and sat on his knees, since he was so tall and the couch was shorter than him.

"Ok, Eva. I'll lift a bit of your shirt so I can examine your stomach, okay? If something is wrong or you are in pain, please squeeze Jane's hand, okay? "

I nodded my head and held Jane's hand tightly. Dr. Miller lifted my shirt so my stomach was the only thing visible. He pressed down on the upper right, upper left, lower right, and lower left 3 times. When he pressed in the middle, I squeezed Jane's hand and squirmed away from him. Dr. Miller saw his sister's hand squeezed and looked at me and said

" Eva, calm down. I'm not going to press any more. "

He lowered my shirt and I got up from my position. My hands pressed against my stomach.

"Eva, I think it hurts because your stomach is bruised. I'll get you some ice and you put it on your stomach, ok? "

He said as he got up to get me ice. He got ice from the refrigerator and gave it to me. I carefully put it on my stomach.

"Now what?"

"Well, your stomach is good. I need to put a sling on your chest because of your ribs so they can heal, and I need to put a cast on your leg too. So we can do that, then we will see what we will do afterward, ok? "

"Are you going to see my chest?"

I asked him and he saw fear and worry in my eyes.

"Well, I can get a female doctor to put it in. But I'm doing your leg, though, unless you want a female doctor to do it."

"I want a female doctor in both, please. And I want Jane to be with me."

Dr. Miller looked at his sister, and they had a silent conversation, and then he looked at me and said

"Jane will be with you, and I'm going to go get the doctor and meet you in another room, ok? Jane, take her to the ortho side of the hospital and in an empty room and tell them Dr. Miller needs the room and they'll understand, OK? "

He looked at me and then looked at his sister when he gave the instructions. She nodded her head, and we all left the office. We parted ways when we all reached the ortho part. He went to get the doctor while me and Jane went to an empty room, and she told the nurse that Dr. Miller needed the room.

Suddenly, the door opened and Dr. Miller came in with a female doctor.

"Eva, this is doctor Emily. She will put your casts on your chest and legs. I'll wait outside till you guys are done, OK? "

I nodded my head. Dr. Miller left the room, and Dr. Emily got the things for the cast and sling. She then came to my right side and said,

"Well, which one do you want to start first? Leg or chest? "

"Umm... leg."

"Alright, please remove your pants on your right leg."

I nervously took off my pants on the right leg, and I felt exposed. I had my underwear half way clear. Jane sensed my nervousness and held my hand.

"Don't be embarrassed, Eva. We are all girls. It's OK."

I felt a little more comfortable hearing her words. Doctor Emily quickly finished my leg. It didn't take time. I wore my pants again when she was done. Now comes the part I didn't like at all.

"Please take off your top. You can keep your bra. "

Jane squeezed my hand for comfort and smiled at me.

"It's OK, we won't judge you."

I took my top off and she showed me how to put it on and get it off when I am showering and gave me some instructions. Then I put my top on when she was done. She put everything back in its place and cleaned the room. She gave me crutches to walk with.

We got out and saw Dr. Miller sitting on a chair outside, giving us his back. Jane smirked at me, and I understood what she wanted to do. I laughed quietly. She went behind his back and scared him. He jumped into his place and looked behind him and saw his sister laughing at him. He smiled at her and I was laughing beside them.

"That was fun."

"Yes, it was."

We walked back to the office. I sat down on the couch, tired from walking. I checked the clock on the wall and saw that it was 5 p.m. It took us five hours to get most of the things done.

"5 hours"

I whispered

"What did you say, Eva?"

"It's been 5 hours since I was awake, It took us five hours to get most of the things done."

Dr. Miller looked at me and then at the clock. Then he looked at me, laughing.

"The clock isn't correct, Eva. I made it wrong so I could feel bad and go to my patient fast. It's 4 o'clock, Eva. "

"Oh, well, what are we going to do now?"

"Well, we left the hardest thing till the end. We need to go to an OBGYN to get you checked out. Then you'll be done and you will go back to miss Dursilla. "

"Why do I have to go to an OBGYN?"

"Umm... Jane, would you like to explain?"

Jane looked at me and said

"Well, Eva, do you remember when you told me what happened?"

I nodded my head, not wanting to think about it.

"Well, I just want to be sure that nothing happened or anything. just to be on the safe side."

"oh"

I looked at the ground, thinking, and then I looked at Dr. Miller.

"Can we do it another day? I'm tired and exhausted and it's been a very long day for me. "

He looked at me unsurely and then looked at Jane. Then she looked at me again.

"Well, I can come get you tomorrow from the orphanage."

"Ok"

"Jane, can you drive her there? I need to check my patients. "

"Ya sure, let's go Eva."

"Bye Dr. Miller, see you tomorrow."

"Bye Eva, and please call me Brian. Dr. Miller makes me look older."

"sure"

And with that, I left the hospital with Jane. She drove me to the orphanage and told me she'd see me tomorrow. We said goodbye to each other, and then I knocked on the door of the orphanage. Miss Dursilla opened the door and looked sympathetically at me.

"Welcome back, Eva."
