Synopsis
I grabbed my surgeon’s wrist right before the anesthesia put me under, and told him everything my ex did to me. I don’t even remember what I said, the room was already going dark. When I woke up, the curtain was half pulled back and I could hear two men arguing through the door. One of them was my ex, shouting that he’s here to take me home. The other was my surgeon, telling my ex that if he takes one more step toward my room he’ll have security drag him out of the building. My ex crossed his arms and stomped his foot, pouting, “She’s my girlfriend, you can’t keep her from me.” My surgeon stepped closer to him, and growled, “She told me everything, you’re done here. I’m taking her home.”
