POV: Ciize
"So, here you are again. Has your bruised ego healed already?" I try to behave, but honestly, I'm having fun pushing her buttons.
"Come on, girl. I just want to get through this dilemma once and for all. You could make someone go deaf with all that talking."
"I'm tired of throwing philosophical nonsense at you too, Ms. Pattranite. Let's try a different approach this time."
I lead her, willingly, to Milk's private room at Kapook's hospital. Then, I gave her a briefing on the plan.
"Here's the deal: I'm going to let you observe Milk's private nurses and the intern doctors taking care of her for the whole day. Watch everything—Milk's reactions, her condition, even her behavior. If anything catches your eye, write it down. You can even take a video if that makes your monitoring easier," I explain to her.
"But on the second day, it'll just be me and Milk. Pay close attention to how I interact with her. Note everything down—positive or negative, I don't care, whatever makes you happy. After that, if you can prove I'm not worthy of performing her treatment, I'll gladly turn myself in to the authorities and never bother you again. Just give me a chance to prove I'm worthy."
I can feel it—she's about to laugh at my proposition, or maybe tell me she's too busy to waste time on this nonsense. But guess what? Miracles do happen. She agreed, willingly. Maybe she's hoping to see me imprisoned after all. But that will never happen—Ciize is the boss here in Bangkok, Thailand.

POV: Love
"I just want to give you a heads-up before we begin. Once you enter her room, you'll notice we've already installed several surveillance cameras. You'll be sitting in the corner, and you can observe through the computer monitor, tablet, or laptop we've provided. This will make it easier for you to zoom in, zoom out, or review footage if you happen to miss anything. You can also choose to observe everything with your own eyes—it's up to you. Just don't forget to take notes. One crucial thing to remember: no matter what, do not go near the patient. Don't interfere with the physicians or nurses, and don't disturb anything. If she realizes you're in the room, it will distress her. Got it?"
"Yeah, copy that." This tiny woman is getting on my nerves again, acting all bossy early in the morning. Good thing she'll be gone the whole day. The nurses and some intern doctors are on shift today, so I can finally breathe and be at peace.
I'm not backing out of this challenge. In fact, I think it might work out in my favor. Maybe this will be my chance to get rid of that fake doctor once and for all, and finally get Milk the right one—someone who can properly handle her treatment.
Day 1. The observation begins.
Nothing unusual, really—just the typical hospital routine you'd expect. Nurses come in every now and then to check her vitals, feed her through an IV, or sometimes via a feeding tube. I even saw two tall nurses struggling to change her gown and clean her bed. They had to call for extra help to manage it.
