"Yeah, yeah, sending them in the middle of the night, all sneaky like this..." Lana Fisher chimed in from the side.
Gavin Wilson bowed his head even lower, his face alternating between shades of green and white with embarrassment and not knowing what to do.
Tara Summer glanced at the two young nurses, shook her head at them, and signaled them to stop talking.
"Old Wilson, were the roses on my desk a year ago from you?" she asked in a low voice, stepping back to ease the pressure on him.
"...Yes." At this point, Gavin Wilson could only confess honestly.
He admitted that he had feelings for Tara Summer, even love at first sight; he had been smitten with her from the moment he saw her.
At that time, everyone thought Tara was single, and many doctors began pursuing her; he was no exception.
Yet, Gavin Wilson lacked confidence. Faced with the beautiful and academically accomplished Tara, he felt he didn't measure up and was sure he would fail if he professed his love.
