Big Aint Bad

Chapter 4.

Armani

Yes! Last patient of the day before i can go home.

I grabbed the chart & reviewed it.

"Mrs. Jones how are you?" I asked.

I was so busy looking at my chart that I didn't notice she wasn't alone. Oh shit. Its the guy from the accident. Here we go again.

"I'm sorry Dr. Stevens where are my manners. This is my big brother Kemani Harrison."

"Kemani this is my Dr. Armani Stevens. She's the best at what she does." She said.

"We know each other." He said.

"Wait, You two know each other?" she asked.

"Unfortunately we do. This is the psycho that backed into me the other day." he said.

I cant believe he's doing this here right now. I ignored him .

"Hi Mrs. Jones. How are you feeling today?" I asked.

"Great. Just a little swelling in my ankles." she said.

"Well thats expected in the third trimester of pregnancy."

"Just stay away from salt & try to keep your feet elevated at least 30 minutes to an hour about 4-5 times a day."

"Your vital signs are good."

"Blood pressure is good."

"Now let's take a look at your baby boy to see how he's doing." I said.

She layed back & raised up her shirt.

I grabbed the gel.

"This is gonna be a little cold." I said.

She nodded.

I squirted some on her lower abdomen & started observing the screen.

"Looks like the baby has correctly positioned himself for delivery."

I'm gonna schedule you to get induced in 2 Wednesdays."

"We're getting close." I said.

She beamed.

"Any questions?"

She shook her head no.

"Well here's a napkin to wipe your belly clean." I said.

"You can pick up your appointment card from the nurse's station."

Have a good evening." I said.

"You too." she said.

I changed the bed paper in each of my 6 patient rooms & swept them clean.

"You can go ahead & go home Sarah." I said.

"You sure you'll be alright?" She asked.

"Yeah. See you tommrow morning." I said.

Finally I was done with work. I grabbed my keys & was on my out of the door when Mr. Psycho came running in.

"Look if you're coming in here to argue I have had a long day at work & I just wanna go home." I said.

"Actually I left my keys in the room." He said.

"Oh. Wait here in my office."

I grabbed his keys & when i walked back into my office he was looking at my pictures on my desk.

"Here you go Mr. Harrison. I said.

"Call me Kemani." He said.

"Oh-kaay. Now that we're on a first name basis I think we should be going." I said.

"Oh yeah. I'm sorry." He said.

"You look different on these pictures." He said.

"Yeah I know." I said.

Were these pictures of you from when you were younger?" he asked .

"Uh Yeah. My aunt took a lot of pictures of me then. Uhh before she died." I said softly.

"I'm sorry. Are you alright miss?" He asked quietly

"I'm sorry. I'm sure you don't want to here my life story or my struggles." I said holding back tears.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah. I'm fine. Let's just go. I'm sure your sister is waiting." I said.

He nodded his head in agreement.

We walked out. "I'll wait until you lock the door & pull off".

"Wouldn't want anyone to snatch you haha." He joked.

I knew he was only doing this to make me feel better. So I faked a laugh but he saw right through it.

"Well goodn......"

*BAM*

We bumped foreheads & all of my files scattered. We both bent down to grab them.

"I'm sooo sor...." our eyes met. I quickly pulled away & said goodnight to him.

He offered to walk me to my car but I declined.

It was something about those eyes.
