"What is this guy doing here? He shouldn't ruin this opportunity for me". I got out after being interviewed. I looked at the number of people being interviewed for the same job, on top of that I have been rude to one of the panel members so I just lost hope and went home feeling low.
I got a call a week later congratulating me on being a surgeon in their hospital. I was shocked that the guy didn't let them reject me. After hearing the news, I wanted to share it with Nicolas and use that opportunity to settle our issues.
I went there the next day, the gate was already open so I entered the villa but the place felt really empty. I heard some moaning from upstairs so out of curiosity, I went to see what was happening, and behold there was a woman on my matrimonial bed.
"Nicolas, what is a woman doing on our matrimonial bed?"
"I don't owe you any answer but she is a distant relative. She came to discuss business."
"Business! So why is she in nightwear on our bed?"
"Like I said I don't owe you any explanation. And why are you calling it our marital bed? When we have not consummated the marriage. Let me break the silence, we both know this marriage won't work so let's sign a divorce."
"Are you serious? Your dad will be disappointed in us if that happens."
"My dad is dead and I'm the living one so I don't care what my dad will think. I promise you Jasmine that you are leaving empty-handed from this divorce so don't think you are getting some property or money."
I left the villa disappointed in myself for making the wrong decisions. How was it possible I thought I found my better half some weeks ago and now he has become my worst half? I started work the following week. Knowing myself, I was not good at my first days, so I decided to be scarce and not create any scenes today.
"Doc, I heard a new surgeon is coming in today"
"Is it a guy or a lady?"
"Will you guys behave yourself, don't you know Doctor Owen won't answer your questions"
"We are to assemble in the conference room in a few minutes so get ready and leave Doctor Owen alone so he can relax, He had a long night."
I was told to come to the conference room at 8 AM, I saw doctors looking around waiting for the news. The director of the Hospital introduced me to the doctors and asked me to say a few words to leave a mark in the heart of the residence since I was a senior surgeon.
"Good day to you all, it is a privilege to work alongside you and build a new memory. To be a doctor is one of the greatest things one can boast about so be happy you are selected among the thousand that touch the lives of humans each day. Don't let your mistakes define you but let your achievement empower you. It is a great honor to be a cardiologist, sorry please I mean cardiothoracic surgeon. Thank you"
I saw the expression on everyone's face, I knew they would have laughed out loud had it not been the director. "God, how can I make this mistake on my first day at work? I might have been cursed to have a bad first day anytime I get a new job." The day became really bad when the director introduced me to my colleague doctor in the department.
"Doctor Jasmine, this is Doctor Owen, you will be working in the same department. I hope you guys make me proud."
"So you are called Owen, why are you always around me, because of you I made a mistake on my first day."
"Congratulations on your appointment Jasmine. It will be a pleasure working with you."
"I'm Doctor Jasmine please and this job means a lot to me so don't make things hard. Thank you"
"I wouldn't want to worry the greatest cardiologist who ever lived, enjoy your first day Jasmine."
His laughter got me irritated and my first day was damaged like that. I made these terrible mistakes in front of my juniors and colleagues. It was embarrassing on my first day but got to know the doctors I would be working with and tried to adapt to the environment. The residents expressed themselves and we got along. They saw Doctor Owen approaching, acted scared, and quickly went to their post.
"Hey babe girl, why are you sitting at the bus stop? Do you want a lift home?"
"How many times do I have to tell you to stop calling me that, my driver is on his way and I don't sit in Benz cars so move along?"
My pride didn't allow me to take that stranger's car so I waited for the next bus and hopped on. I got to work the next day and was informed there was a surgery I needed to perform on Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). It was a regular surgery for me since I have done it several times. I completed my first surgery at the hospital successfully and went to my office to relax after 4 long hours.
I felt a kiss from my leg to my thigh, climbing to my stomach and breasts. I couldn't control my emotion soaked in my fantasy, since I hadn't been touched in a long time. The feeling was great, he climbed to my neck with affection and love. I enjoyed every touch but decided to open my eyes to know who was this great at pleasing a woman.
"OWEN!!!!"
