Contraclockwise

I stare blankly from the things that happened today. I am now sitting inside the office of Director Art while listening to the debates from the doctors who are my senior here.

"Dr. Rackie, should know how to place herself!" Dr. Heart yelled.

The truth is, the Neurological Department rushed to the office of Director Art and now shouting and yelling.

"Dr. Rackie, did the right thing as a doctor." Dr. Red calmly said. “What’s the fuss, doctors?” he asked coolly. “Seriously, where are we when one of our VIP patients is suffering? Come on, let’s just admit it, she even risks her life just to get back here. She abandoned her family’s celebration party for her just to check the VIP patient.” He said with his blank expression. He looked at me and winked. “Dr. Rackie, how’s your leg?” he suddenly asks. “Why so shocked? You ran from the parking lot up to the third floor, isn’t it?”

I nodded. “I-it’s nothing, Doc. I’m alright.” I stuttered replying.

Dr. Red stood up and went right in front of me. He sat and pulled up my pants up until my knees. “Is this what you call alright, Dr. Rackie? Your legs were swelling and full of bruises.” He commented. “Now, doctors, let us be professional. It’s not about being old or new here, it’s about saving lives. What’s wrong for a new doctor in this department to look after the VIP patient? We all know that this rookie is showing off and we all know that she’s one of the best, even just looking at the patient from a far, her diagnostics are always right.” He sermons. He stood up and looked at me again. “I don’t know why you chose to be a neurologist! Orthopedic Department is nicer to you!” he suddenly commented. “Anyway, Director Art, what can you say?”

“You said it all, future CEO.” Director Art seriously said.

I was stunned from what I heard. It was obvious that everyone was also stunned from the news they’ve heard. “Oh, really? The announcement will be held for that CEO thing will be next week.”

Director Art chuckled. “Brother, it’s getting obvious already.” He said. “Doctors, I don’t want this to happen again. Dr. Abstract might not be fully pledged as a Pediatric Neurologist yet but she’s still a doctor here, she’s a resident doctor here. Meeting is done; you can now go except for you, Dr. Abstract.”
