The air hummed with a sterile tension as I stepped into the facility, my heels echoing on the polished floor like a heartbeat—steady, relentless. Today marked the beginning of a new chapter, not just for the patients but for me as well. It marked the new birth of something remarkable, something that will get us ahead, and will set us forward. I was here to reshape every patient's world, and I demanded nothing but excellence and perfection in every detail that will impact their improvement, mentally, emotionally, and physically as well. The faint scent of antiseptic mingled with the anxiety of new beginnings, wrapping around me like a cloak.
As CEO, I was no stranger to intimidation. Shit, I was known for that amongst many crowds, which gains me several points whenever I'm in no mood to socialize. But the moment I set foot inside, my presence alone silenced the bustling staff. Their eyes started darting away like startled prey. They knew that today meant business, as well as the rest of the working days, actually. I took my time, surveying the space, and the soft whir of machinery punctuating the silence. But I had made a vow this morning: I would connect with these patients, not just serve them from a distance.
And this morning vow has taken majority of my morning, not that I was complaining as I enjoyed engaging in deep conversations with half of my patients, and seeing the world through their lenses. But, did that stop me from the usual stalking routine I have been setting for myself? Maybe, but my only consolation was the fact that Onika was going to be here, right here with me from now on, throughout the whole day. That still wouldn't be stopping me from watching her at any given time and moment of the day, or night at that matter. Just like right now as well. I pulled my phone out, checking in on her through the cameras of her own house, and I smiled as I saw her putting her nude heels on, as she looked at herself in the mirror, ever so poised and confident as she looked like she was stepping into her power the longer she stared at her reflection. She was mesmerizing.
