"Woman! I told you to wait for me, didn't I", he demandingly asked while pinning Winona against the wall.
"I.. I don't know what your are talking about", she struggled with good hope of breaking away from this strange however familiar man's embrace.
"Hmm", he sneered. Then continued, "since you can't recall those erased marks why not add new ones. This will help you remember faster".
And all of the sudden his dark eyes flickered to bloodshot red as if an hunter ready to anchor it's prey. His hands were not an exception, rather than the wall they had previously been they now diverted to Winona's waist.
This small gesture seemed to bring back memories of that terrifying, however eventfull night.
...
Opening her still heavy eyes, Winona scanned her messy bedroom with clothes scattered nearly the entire floor. Off course, the sun had already risen from the east.
The usual, the first thing to do following her day to day routine is to check the number of views on her novel after updating last night's chapter.
After having a cold water bath and a complete dress up. She prepared herself breakfast with the only food she could easily cook, which is mainly toasted bread with bacon and scrambled eggs.
When Winona checked her wrist watch she realized that she only had a few minutes to report to work. Unless otherwise, another scolding from the manager, Ms Cole addressed with a title of principal.
But once you inherit a Red flag of 'always late' it is hard to break away from it no matter how hard one tries.
No sooner had Winona finished her breakfast, than she held a taxi heading straight to the Hutton City Hospital. Just as she entered the main entrance, a familiar voice sounded not from afar.
Who else could it be if not for the principal herself...
"Winona Winston! you are late, again? Do you think that this is a voluntary Hospital and you can come to work at any time you like? or maybe your father's play grounds and you are the little princess, heh?", Ms Cole yelled, drawing the passer-by's attention.
Having gotten used to this, Winona could only Keep her head hanging low as she inwardly sneered, ' geez! so noisy, the principal title suits you well indeed '.
After minutes of what seemed like tutoring, Ms cole eventually let go of the latter as she also ascended straight to her office.
At first she had been occupied on the the first floor but after continuously reporting late for work, the she was relocated to the top floor for proper inspection by Ms Cole.
" No principal today? ", Enoch, Winona's coworker asked as he handed her a cup of coffee.
" As if. I don't know what odd terms I've come across that old woman, she always finds faults with me. I am not the only one who comes late here you know? ", Winona complained while putting on her oversized Lab coat.
" Maybe you should try reporting early sometimes, if this were to reach the higher ups it might affect your future position. Don't tell me you spent the entire night updating your scripts? ", Enoch outlined with interrogation on the last sentence.
" I did no-"
" But I can tell from those dark circles around your eyes. staring at the screen for a long period of time is not good for your health, it may result in eye strain and back injuries if you sit in the same position for a long period of time".
This time, he stood in line with Winona staring a'top of her head.
Seeing that there is no point in retorting back, Winona could only accept defeat," I get it Dr Anderson, let's get to work before the principal comes back and you also become implicated".
After saying so, they both departed to their respective medical departments.
Upon arriving at the emergency room, Winona was transferred to go and operate on a patient in another ward...
As it is an emergency, the she had to rush to the operating area. Just as she reached the main hallway, she bumped into something let alone say someone.
" Ouch!", She flinched. How can a normal person be this rigid...
Raising her head she wanted to say ,"watch where you are going! are you blind?".
However, those words never came out of her mouth as they embarrassingly halted on her throat.
When she raised her head to look at the person standing in front of her, a compliment word couldn't be found in the dictionary let alone on Google search.
The tall figure standing a'front of Winona was indeed handsome with an height of about 6'5m with perfectly shaped chisel facial features that complimented his body.
Meanwhile, the other party stood motionless coldly staring at the woman who bumped herself a'aim at him.
This usually happens wherever he went, but looking at this young doctor who has little or no makeup exposing her dark circles, her deep blue eyes seemed pure devoid of seductress schemes.
Yet, the most interesting part is her bewildered expression with those big round eyes that seems as if they would pop out of their bulb socket at any moment.
Winona wanted to scrutinize more but his voice echoed into her ear, promptly pulling her away from her sudden shocked trance.
As he asked, "not yet done?".
Waking up from her slumber, Winona coldly replied acting as the main victim, " Sir, next time you pay attention to where you are going. This is a private hospital not a public park".
After saying so, she rushed to her site of action.
To begin with, that was an embarrassing encounter but she did save her sorry butt right...
The person who was left on the crime scene couldn't help but have a smirk plastered at the corner of his lips which are neither thick nor thin.
Both amused and intrigued, ' isn't that supposed to be the other way round?'.
He stared at the former not until she was out of sight. Simon who had been standing in behind the entire time, finally spoke, " sir, should I go after her?", he asked.
" I'm not interested in a mare doctor let her be", the called Boss replied.
Simon seemed a bit surprised after that reply, the Mr Hutton that he knew was acting a bit strange from the usual. But since the person standing in front of him calls the shots, he chose to remain silent in the end.
After casting a last glance in the direction of the short tempered woman, Henry as well departed to his destination.
But, his mind kept lingering with an image of that woman with a brazen temperament.
Even though the time he had scanned her face was short lived, it could be Sayed that she was different from those good looking however pretentious women.
A uneasy feeling suddenly flattered in his chest...
She somewhat seemed a bit familiar like he had seen her somewhere before but couldn't place in the right destination.
