Chapter 87: Not Scared?
"Oh alright sis. Yes I understand." Rizie said with dropped shoulders before the phone call ended. It was Keira, her sister-in-law, who informed her that the military was implementing strict security in the data so her request wouldn’t be accommodated as of now.
Rizie pouted her lips and took it as a sign that she should stop and must not get too attached with the matter.
"Hello Rizie," greeted Shaira with his widest smile at Rizie. "Yes?" Rizie asked, wondering what Shaira needed to pass by their clinic.
Shaira sat in front of her as she mumbled, "Do you know where Dr. Song sleeps? I heard she never sleeps in the on-call room."
Rizie’s eyebrows raised as she simply countered, "Why would you care about where Dr. Song sleeps?" Shaira was taken aback with Rizie’s straightforwardness and she said stuttering, "Well, I..I just g..got curious because all doctors sleep there whenever there’s late operation or emergency operation at night."
"Ohh I see, so may be Dr. Song probably don’t want to sleep there. Anyway, I am going out for lunch now, so if you’ll excuse me..." said Rizie with a poker smile. She knew people of Shaira’s kind, those who did nothing productive but gossip about other people’s lives.
"Wanna join us?" Shaira suddenly offered. Rizie saw Dr. Chen who, she presumed, would eat alone on his own. Shaira followed her eyes and commented, "Ohh that Dr. Chen is handsome right? But he is very creepy because of his third eye, most of us avoid him because of this."
Rizie’s face became sour at that comment and said, "Well, I’m going to have lunch with Dr. Chen actually, so see you around."
That instant Rizie stood up and ran to Dr. Chen.
