My heart is still racing as I head to my car. I’m shaky all over, my hand visibly trembling as I reach for my door, and I know it’s not because of the cold, despite the fact that the temperatures have dropped to below freezing right now. I can’t get the look of his eyes out of my mind. They literally scare me…but they also make me feel something else; something I know I shouldn’t be feeling. Something I don’t think I’ve ever felt before. The way he looked at… 阅读更多

Doctor-Patient Confidentiality: Chapter Seventeen
My body moves before I can stop it, and a mix of shock and fear and something else I’m not really sure I want to admit that I’m feeling force my hands to push myself off his shoulders, hauling me backward in a slight stumble. My abrupt reaction quickly puts some distance between us, but his other hand refuses to budge from its current resting place—my now very rigid waist. His grip on it actually seems firmer, if anything. I’m breathing hard, and the air enters and leaves my suddenly… 阅读更多
Doctor-Patient Confidentiality: Chapter Sixteen
I feel a slight ringing in my ears at the sound of his insanely deep voice. I’m not sure if it’s just me or the general funkiness I feel from being in a surgery center, but his statement sounds an awful lot like a demand. And the way he just said my name? Holy shit. Before I even get a chance to speak, he says, “Or would you prefer to go by ‘Miss Gallo’ or something else?” My toes curl on impulse at the sound of him calling me in… 阅读更多
医患保密:第十五章
He reaches for a frameless pair of glasses and puts them on with a single hand while grabbing my folder with the other. The action is so effortless and yet so meticulous at the same time. I find myself staring at his hands for a moment, noticing their incredible structure and size. His fingers have a certain elegance about them, like they can wield magic or something. Well, he is a surgeon, so I guess that’s technically true on some level. “Ramona Gallo,” he says as he looks at the… 阅读更多
医患保密:第十四章
I feel my eyes growing wide and my neck tilting as far back as it can go without snapping off, all in an effort to keep up with the sheer size of the imposing figure standing before me. “Dexter Frost?” I finally manage to ask, my voice incredibly hoarse. “The oncologist?” “Yes,” he admits with a nod. “I’m temporarily standing in as the assistant chief surgeon here at Greenwood.” “I see,” I say. I suppose he does look way too young to be a chief surgeon, anyway. Still, I can’t… 阅读更多
医患保密:第十三章
I head back to my seat feeling incredibly somber. Just as soon as I sit down, a deep, commanding voice comes through that makes me jump in my chair. “Ramona?” I turn to the side to find the owner of such a demanding voice, and I’m stunned to stillness as I see a man covered in a crisp white lab coat walking toward me. I feel my eyes widen as I take in the sight of him. He’s incredibly good-looking, possibly the most handsome man I’ve ever seen in real… 阅读更多
医患保密:第十二章
当我发现自己坐在手术中心的候诊室里时,我的脚不受控制地敲打着——又是一个阴暗的医疗机构。我发现自己不停地坐立不安,尽量不要起伏,因为我尽我最大的努力准确填写了太多页长的患者表格。今天我第二次来到这样的地方,这只会让我更加疲惫不堪,让握笔这个简单的任务变得更加困难十倍。我从……到这里花了三十分钟。 阅读更多
医患保密:第十一章
A minute later, Trixie comes back with this huge, giddy smile on her face. “Oh my God, you little slut! I totally saw that,” she says to me as she sits down. I raise my eyebrow. “What?” “As if you don’t know,” she waves her hand in a dismissive fashion. “You and Jamie Wrighton ogling each other in the middle of the cafeteria, that’s what.” “I was not. He was just apologizing for bumping into me,” I say nonchalantly. Trixie can be extremely dramatic when it comes to two things… 阅读更多
医患保密:第十章
距离我与 Templin 医生的约会还有大约三个小时的时间,而且由于 Trixie 还有一个小时没有课,我们决定在我们中的任何一个饿死之前吃点早餐。她打电话给比尔,让他在西校区最大的餐馆 Overground 与我们会面。比尔让我们知道,我们到达时他已经到了,并为我们俩预留了座位。不可否认,他做任何事情都很准时,即使是像吃东西这样非正式和琐碎的事情。当我发现… 阅读更多
医患保密:第九章
Nurse Jane pinpoints the area of concern, touching the same area again and parts adjacent to it to confirm that it is, in fact, the source of my ailment. “It could be a number of things,” she says. “Have you eaten or drank anything out of the ordinary since it began?” “No, not that I can think of,” I say, my voice a lot hoarser than I remember it being. “Do you drink heavily?” she asks. This is Wisconsin. And I work at a bar. Define heavily. “Not really…,” I… 阅读更多
