Nobody's pov
~in the morning at hospital~
Zara:" good morning guys".
Leah:" morning zara".
Zara:"is something wrong?"
Leah:" the patient in room -143 is-"
Head nurse karen:"ZARA"
Dissapointed but not surprised zara puffed in some air and turned towards the voice as Leah expresses good luck with her face.
karen:" zara, you are late".
Zara:" ma'am, i m certainly not"
Before karen could lash out on Zara both of them were distracted by the weird noices coming from one of the rooms.
Karen:" whatever,now that you are here take the records of patient in 143 andn get into it .
Leah hands over the records to zara apologetically.
" how bad it could be" zara told herself as she approached room 143 .
She opened the door with her signature warm smile but froze at the sight of a crying intern nurse , scattered equipments all over the floor and finally a patient in her 50s sitting on the bed with an extremely disgusted expression .
The intern nurse runs behind her as zara approached the women with the her record in hand.
Zara:" ma'am, what is the problem?"
Lady:" ask her".
Intern:" she refuses to be injected"
Zara:" ma'am, can you tell me why exactly are you refusing the treatment?"
Lady:" you see this hand, its swollen to double its size and she comes here every few hours and injects in 3-4 vaccines at once. I did not sign up for this".
Zara:" ma'am, i dont think you would want to sign up for immense pain and discomfort and possible fatality for the rest of your life in exchange of few injections."
Zara approaches to grab the lady's wrist while trying to involve her in the talk but the lady yeets away the injection from Z's hand and grabs her wrist furiously and the next thing you know is the door slam open revealing a panting guy at the door with eyes go wide open on witnessing the situation.
Guy:" MOM!"
He stomps towards them and releases Z's arm from his mother's grip.
Guy:" mom.. can you for once not humiliate me and comply with the staff".
Lady:"dont talk to your mother like that "
Guy:" i don't want to but the authorities called me between a meeting saying you were creating a scene beyond control"
Zara:" sir, i ll have to ask you to lower your voice".
Guy:" i m sorry, i m really sorry , for her , i-"
Zara:" its ok, i just need to give her few injections."
Lady:" you are not giving me anything"
Zara:" hmm.. maam just hear me out once and i ll let you decide if you want it or not after that."
Zara leans towards the lady's ears and whispers something which makes the lady go pale and she surprisingly starts complying.
Zara comforts the intern nurse and tells her to proceed with the treatment and takes her leave.
The guy follows her out and gets in front of her.
Zara:"..."
Guy:" hey, i m really sorry-"
Zara:" sir-"
Guy:"liam, you can call me liam"
Zara:" liam, dont stress, its okay. Its my duty".
Liam:" but.."
Liam:"what did you say to her?"
Zara:" oh , i just told her the cons of not getting the treatment."
Zara hardly managed to hold in her laugh and ended up smiling, knowing that's not exactly what she whispered in the lady's ears.
Zara:" now, if you'd excuse me, i need to check on other patients"
With that she curves around liam and makes her way to the nurse's station.
Leah:" woah girl, that was one hell of a damage control.what did you do?"
Zara:" i just told the lady what she needed to hear"
Leah:" and that is"
Zara:" that..she ll possible die without medication and her son would end up marrying a woman of his choice and she would take over her house"
Leah:" but..she wasn't gonna die"
Zara:" she doesn't know that"
Leah:" you sly angel"
Both of them explode into giggles .

Ellla:" is she?"
Ronnie:"dating?"
Ella:" i dunno"
Ronnie:" lets find out"
Ella:" wait ,what are you gonna do?"
Ronnie :" i m gonna text back".
Ella:"No"
Ronnie:" yes"
Ronnie places the phone back as they hear footsteps.
Zara:" have you seen my phone?"
Ella:" umm..yeah its right there"
Zara:" oh, right"
Ronnie:" Z?"
Zara:" yeah?"
Ronnie:" are you dating?"
Zara:" yes, i m dating my job. Totally committed"
Ronnie:" yeah right. Good night bebe"
Zara:" good night"
Ella:" what was that?"
Ronnie:" i dunno i just felt like asking her? She wouldn't lie right?"
Ella:" i guess"
Ronnie:" aah i m sleepy and i gotta do my skincare before i pass out so imma head in"
Ella rolls here eyes and goes to her room as ronnie disappears into her's.

No sound of Ronnie, maybe she slept in. Hah my chance for revenge . She hates insects .muahahah lemme just grab my plastic spiders.
Ella:"Ronnie, you in there?"
No sound, good.
Turning the knob as quietly as possible i aimed and threw my fist full of the surprise towards the bed but there was no reaction. I opened the door completely but she wasnt in her bed .
Ronnie:" good morning bae"
Ella:" what the fuck? Why are you bending like that.. oh my god just looking at you hurts my back"
Ronnie:" its yoga honey"
Ella:" whatever, come out i m re-heating the leftovers".
Ronnie:" in a minute".

Ella:"i ll kiss anyone who announces lunch break".
??:"its lunch break".
Ella:"hn?"
Ella:" oh my gawd ,dude!? What the hell are you doing standing so close to my face. Move."
??:" i m waiting"
Ella:" for?"
??:" The kiss"
Ella:"in your dreams asshole".
??:"hey, thats rude."
I pictured myself slapping some sense into this jerk but before i could implement it he was already falling face first on the tiled floor. As much as i was delighted i was trying to process what just happened.
??:" ouch..Who the fuck tripped me?"
"Really, i thought you were already tripping ." Damon said sipping on his coffee while putting a hand out to mark who was now flat on the floor.
Mark slaps his hand away and damon puts it back in his pocket and gives mark a suit yourself shrug.
Damon:" you okay?"
Ella:" i had this under control".
Damon:" i m sure you did".
Ella:" what do you want?"
Damon:" you".
Ella:"not happenin-"
Damon:" you... Looked like you might need some help".
Ella:" i dont need your help".
I might have said it a little louder earning some unwanted attention from the other employees.
Ella:" ugh.. follow me".
Damon :"sure".
Ella:"listen, you dont have to interfere in my business"
Damon:" so.. you want me to be a Spectator of your abuse?"
Ella:" no... I dont want you to do anything".
Damon:" i cant.. i want to be your business".
Ella:"WHY?"
Damon:" you , me and every knows why".
Ella:" i have noting to do with you".
Damon :"Not yet"
Ella:" not ever"
Damon:" why?".
Ella:" because you-you are... You. .are..um.."
Damon pinned me against the wall, he is not too close nor too far and it is making me anxious as hell. But he is close enough , i can smell the coffee in his breathe and his cologne too . *Gulp* . That fucking smirk. No wait..wtf ella, you are supposed to stay away from him.
Damon:" i am?"
Ella:"you_are_not_what_i_want".
Damon:"i can be everything you want ..but for now ,i ll behave".
He stepped back and kept walking backwards and then disappeared into his cabin.
Oh my god, this is so frustrating.

Ronnie's pov
Do i need a reason to see my best friend? She is probably summoning coffee from the heaven. Let Me, the goodest bestie surprise her with some coffee. I ordered her favourite coffee and sneakily made my way to her .
But wait, where is she if not in her cabin? I looked around and holy shit , bless my eyes for what i was witnessing. Steamy Damonella moment. I had to put a hand over my mouth from screaming and hid myself behind the closest glass door hoping to get a better information of the sexual-tension live drama.
"Excuse me? Do you need something"
I turned around towards the voice and i m pretty sure i mouthed 'fuck'
Ronnie:" Mr.young !.. um i just wanted to ..welcome you to our organisation on behalf of the management department."
Jackson:" Thank you miss ronnie".
Ronnie:" hm? You know my name?"
Jackson:" yes"
Ronnie:" may i ask how?"
Jackson:"No"
Ronnie:" what?"
Jackson:" i repeat do you want something?"
Ronnie:" dont you think you being too rude?"
Jackson:" And dont you think you press more authority on people than you have?".
Ronnie:" EXCUSE ME, are you accusing me?"
Jackson:" i did witness you using your power on interns"
Ronnie:" huh.. you know what that cold demeanour of yours wont work on me. I get rewarded for my work and not for kissing upto people."
Jackson:"Thank you for the welcome but i dont like associating with people with extreme attitudes who puts their mistakes on others".
Ronnie:" pfft..as if i want to talk to a huge block of ice who acts like a know it all"
I turned on my heels furious regretting how i defended him yesterday night and 'crash' , there goes the bloody vase crumbling on the floor.fuck.
Ronnie:" i m sorry, i didnt meant to.."
With a straight face he grabs his phone and push some buttons not even bothering to look at me. That mean iceberg i swear.
And as if on cue a cleaning guy enters and starts picking up the scattered Ceramic . I couldnt help but help him pickup the pieces . I really hope jackson never bumps into me for his own sake.*curls fist*.
Cleaning guy:" Ma'am, you don't need to do it. Its my job"
Ronnie:" i m sorry dude. Its my fault in the first place let me help you. That way we can get out of this cold storage like cabin faster."
We exchanged muffled laughs and cleaned up the mess in few minutes and were finally out of that cave.
Well , ella was back in her cabin . I was headed towards her when a message from Z popped on our group chat.
~~^^~~
Zara:" i am at the nearby cafe, have lunch with me".
Ella:" on my way".
Ronnie: "me too".

Zara:" guys, over here"
Z waved at us from where she saved us spots.
Ella:"finally, the air was suffocating in the office"
Ronnie:" it sure was"
Ella:" yeah".
Ronnie:" z, you know what?"
Zara:" what?"
Ronnie:" i_witnessed_hot_damonella_moment"
Zara:" oooh spill".
Ella chokes on her drink and looks at me with those killer eyes while coughing.
Ronnie:" well... i couldn't really see the steamy parts "
Ella:"THERE WAS NO..steamy parts. We were just talking"
Ronnie:" sure you were"
Zara:" awww.. i wish i could witness some damonella moments too"
Ronnie:" i ll record it next time for you"
Ella:" what the fuck is going on here,i m right here n there's a knife i ll kill you both"
Ronnie:" that's a butter knife and she is literally a nurse ..theres no chance we ll die so fast"
Ella plops her head on the table with arms crossed over her head in frustration.
Ronnie:" hey, if it bothers you..we wont ...stop talking about it... bitch its fun seeing you like this...muahahah".
Ella:" i ll burn your skincare and put water in your makeup"
Ronnie:" Nooooo.."
Zara:" guys stop, and ella no ruining stuffs..no physical damage."
Ella:" but she is giving me mental damage what about it?"
Zara:" ella... Ronnie is like a 15yr old baby in that 26yr old body why do you mind what she blurts".
Ronnie:" ouch.. it hurts".
Ella :"serves you right".
Ronnie :" today is a bad day for me i guess".
Zara:" hey i didnt mean it like that-".
Ronnie :" its not you its Jackson.."
Ella & zara:" SPILL"
[Gives detailed explanation of the jackson situation]
Ronnie:" i might crush that mean ice popsicle "
Ella:" you mean ..eat the popsicle".
Ronnie:" God . No ..did you not feel my hate for him while i was narrating the whole situation?".
Ella:" bitch i know you.. you always end up liking the things you hate initially"
Ronnie:" this is a different case".
Ella:" we ll see".
??:" Zara?"
We all look up towards the voice. Its raining handsome men I guess.
Zara:" umm??"
??:" Its Liam, from room 143".
Zara : oh. Yes. I remember.do you need anything?".
Liam:" can i talk to you"
Z looked at us while we were just admiring that beautiful and hot human in front of us so she kicked us under the table to bring us back to reality. The protective friend in me woke up and blurted out .
Ronnie:" you can say whatever you want to her right here in front of us."
Ella:" even if you say it to her in person , we are gonna know about it later."
Ronnie:" if you are not a shady person, please sit down and continue."
He smiled and sat down next to z
I felt my heart clutch, ugh he is too cute.
Liam:" Zara, i like you"
It was now both me and ella choking on our drinks. I think muy drink might have literally flowed down my nose.
Liam:" i m sorry for the sudden confessions but i had to say it or i ll die of anxiety."
We can be best friends .
Ronnie:" yes, you can date her".
Zara:" what?...no . I don't even know him".
Ronnie:" you just said you know him"
Zara:" i just know his name".
Ronnie:" well thats how you begin".
Zara:" Ronnie, shut up. Let me handle this".
Ella:" Ron, she is right . Its her choice. Our lunch is over. We ll head in. Zara text us when you get home".
Ronnie:" is she gonna be okay?"
Ella:" she is way more rational than us okay. You mind your popsicle and let her be".
Ronnie:" oh hell nah".
Ella:" yes"
Ronnie:"nooo".
Ella:"yes"
Ronnie:"yes".
Ella:"haha gotcha"
Ronnie :" wait..no."
We matched our steps into the office bickering with each other. Pulling and pushing but still arms interlocker with each other.
