'Visit your patients at night just to talk to them?'
'Don't worry Kassy, I just want to talk to you. It doesn't matter if I've spoken to people before or not, okay?'
I went back to the bed and sat. I looked at Pete and picked out his features one after the other.
He had good hair and his face looked fresh, like he had just had his bath. His lips were very small but I liked the way they moved as he spoke. I was so tempted to walk to him and kiss him. I had to keep reminding myself that he was my doctor.
'So about that family issue, do you want to share it or would you rather hear about my sister?'
He had made the choices very easy for me. There was no way I could choose talking about my drug trafficking family over hearing how his sister got knocked up.
'Let's hear your sister's story.' I laughed.
'Good choice.'
