I had just woken up from a pretty hectic night, nightmares and waking up in the middle of the night but normal to hold on to, I had drunk coffee yesterday. I consulted my phone and my brother reminded me of our appointment tonight at 6pm at the Garden to introduce me to his girlfriend. He's a trickster, he's my little brother but he's already settled. I shower and get dressed, and decide to go for lunch at Isis, my favourite café restaurant! I take my keys and my bag and go downstairs. I walk down the pavement, the air is crisp outside, it feels so good. I keep walking when I get pushed by a man on an overboardd, he flips me over and I end up on the ground. My ankle hurts like hell, I can't move it and my arm is bleeding, why does this only happen to me! I hurriedly picked up my phone and called Irina "Hello Irina?" "Yes Luce darling what's wrong?" "Come and get me, I need you to take me to the hospital, I fell in the street and I can't move my leg and my arm is bleeding, please come and help me! "I'll be right there, where are you? In which street? "You know the street to the left of my flat, the one that leads to Isis' café! "I'll be right there. I hang up and wait for him, I manage to get up and sit on a bench a few meters away. My ankle hurts a lot, I hope it's not broken, I look at my arm and it's bleeding all over. I decide to mop up all the blood with my shirt, there's a lot of it. I see my best friend arrive with her Mercedess S55, she helps me into her car and takes me to the emergency room, she helps me down and accompanies me to the hall, the lady registers me and Irina tells me to sit on a chair, she stays with me for 1 hour and then 2 hours, still no doctor and the waiting room is crowded. I am still in a lot of pain, I look at my arm and it is not bleeding anymore but the wound is not pretty. After half an hour, Irina tells me that she is really sorry but she has to go to her marketing agency appointment. I tell her to go and that I'll manage. Irina leaves and 15 minutes later I am called by a nurse who puts me in an examination room, she helps me onto the examination table and tells me to wait, and that the doctor will arrive. I waited for another 10 minutes, my thoughts wandering to that evening and that accident that had landed me in hospital, I continued to lose myself in my thoughts when I heard the door handle turn, I saw the doctor enter with amazement. But it's DOCTOR NAMOUR! It can't be! It's him, but why the hell does this only happen to me, I've got the bitch on my tail! The doctor enters but hasn't seen me yet because he hasn't looked up from the file. "So Miss Clayton! Is that it? Luce Clayton?" he said as he looked up, his expression froze when he saw me, he was speechless and I was embarrassed. "So you're the girl with the misplaced keys," he said, smiling. I laughed at his joke, he continued, "I'm Doctor Parvat, so what happened to you? I was still stunned by him, he took the stool next to the examination table and sat down. I pulled myself together and said, "I got hit by an overboard on the pavement, I can't move my ankle and my arm is very sore from a wound on my forearm, well you can tell by the blood," I said in a humorous tone to lighten the mood. The doc got up and asked me to lie down, he methodically began to examine me, every time he touched me I felt that same shiver that had run down my spine when he gave me back my keys. He took his stethoscope and listened to my breathing, stitched my arm and finally examined my ankle. He diagnosed me with a sprain! He helped me up and said "Well, that's it, come back to the emergency room in a week so I can see how your ankle is doing and we'll see about the wires later! Do you have someone to take you back?" he said, "No, but I'll take the bus. "No way, you call someone or I'll take you back! "Well you win doctor, I'll call my friend! "The doctor gave me crutches and I sat down in the waiting room, I called my friend but no answer, so I called my brother. I called my brother in dismay. "Hello little brother? Are you alright?
? I got hit by an overboard, I have a sprain and stitches, but I can't take public transport. I have to be picked up! Are you available, please! I'm really sorry, just on the day you have to introduce me to your girlfriend. "I'll be right there, and we'll go straight to the Garden, stopping off at your place to change, see you soon! So I waited for my brother and told the secretary to tell Dr Parvat that someone could come and get me.
