As per instructions, the doctors were gathered inside the conference hall, the room was filled with chitchats, everyone was doing their thing. Moments later, an intimidating woman with gray hair entered the hall, she caught everyone's attention and in a hush, the doctors immediately settled themselves to their preferred seats followed by great silence,
"Kahit tignan mo lang maiinis ka talaga eh", Riza whispered to Michael,
The two of them were seated at the back of the hall near the exit door,
"Oo nga feeling main character always", Miko replied frowning,
The woman looked around the room for a moment, and then proceeded to the stage,
"Good morning", she said coldly with an accent, her eyeglasses were barely hanging on the tip of her nose, "We're going to make this quick, 'cause I am aware na marami kayong trabaho", the woman added.
"Nyetang yan ayan na naman yung British accent na pinipilit", Michael annoyingly said and proceeded to close his eyes covered his ears,
The intimidating lady started speaking, Riza and Miko, being rebellious, didn't cared to listen. Instead, they entertained themselves by sending each other memes through airdrop .Their silent chuckling and whistled laughters were interrupted when the exit door opened, revealing Leni who was clearly running late. She entered the hall slightly ducking, hoping not to be noticed and sat beside her friends.
"Nag eenglish na naman idol mo", Riza muttered to her while closing her phone and putting it in her pocket,
"Gaga baka idol mo", Leonor countered.
The woman continued speaking, discussing different things. She walked back and fourth on the stage before takin a pause and smiled,
"Alright as many of you are already aware", she said while looking at the far back of the room,
"The recent passing of our president left the position vacant, last week the board appointed a new one, a younger one, and obviously also capable"
The doctors started to whisper at each other, guessing and making bets of who this person might be, a lot were guessing that it would be Dr. Joseph Villafuerte, their current Vice director, but their guesses were all wrong.
"Can you come forward sir?", the woman requested, looking at a man seated on the far corner of the room.
The appointed president stood up and buttoned his coat, everyone looked at him, he just smiled and proudly walked forward. Leni's reaction was shocked yet composed, Michael and Riza's eyes were visibly wide.
"Plot twist", Michael said in awe while his eyes followed the man approaching the stage.
"Thank you Director Lao", the man spoke through the mic, "Hi" he addressed the doctors, "Pleasure to finally meet you all" he said, scanning the small crowd, "I am Dr. Ferdinand Rodriguez."
The rest of the room exchanged whispers after hearing the Rodriguez name.
"I know many of you thinks that I am here because I'm the chairman's grandson". He smiled through the mic. "But, please give me some time to prove myself. Bigyan n'yo po ako nang sapat na oras para maipakita kung bakit talaga ako narito".

"Big time pala Dr. Ferdie mo sis", said Riza while they were exiting the conference hall.
"Dapat pala naging mabait ako sa kanya", Michael threw a sarcasm.
"Doc cookies po", a nurse handed Leni a box.
"Ha? Kanino galing?", she accepted and asked confused,
"Kay Doc Rodriguez po", the nurse replied and then handed her another box but, this time its a bunch of Ferrero Rocher, "Eto naman po galing kay Atty. George", she added.
Leonor smiled upon accepting George's gift,
"Ferrero talaga", she said while looking at the chocolates. It became George's hobby to randomly give her Ferrero Rochers, he said its his way to remind her of him with Ferrero being his surname.
