The Man of few Words?

He is the man of few words

Terry Point Of View.

The Beat of a heart- the heart rate monitor is what we can hear inside of the room, the echo of the stainless materials and the Heavily breathing of the persons inside the OR.

I was seriously performing the second part of the surgery and still, The patient's in critical condition.

" We'll perform the Anastomotic technique." I suddenly said When I've done the second way of Removing the tissue, the Conduit.

"Are you sure Doc? Terry? It'll be risky." One of the juniors said.

I'm sweating real hard and we're already performing three and half hours It's progressing but we need to perform the – End-to-end, end-to-side, side-to-side– Hand-sewn, stapled technique.

"Trust me We can do this. Hand me the Doyen intestinal clamp," the lady nurse obliged.

I can feel their pressures and nervousness, all over the room so as the senior doctors outside the room. I keep concentrated as I did use it on the intestines

" The DeBakey forceps." I focused my eyes on the organs that I'm holding right now, afterward look at the heart rate monitor, I made extra effort to be fast because it's becoming 30/70

"The scissors." I cut the edge and put it on a stainless bowl

" The needle holder?" they quickly passed it to me and I did tie all the colons and the hole I made. I perfectly tied it and looked at the heart monitor, it is 40/60

'Heck It's getting late.'

" Put the oxygen. Wait for my signal." As I quickly tied all of it I shook my head. We can hear the sound of the Heart rate monitor's beeps.

"Pump it." The guy nurse plumps three times until the heart rate becomes normal.

"It's ten o'clock in the morning, The tissues have been successfully out. and It's a 100 percent operation successful." I said while looking directly at the president---Nathaniel with his little smile on his face.

"Congrats team. Give me all your graded sheets and I'll be the one to Rate your performances. I added making them nod their head.

They help me remove the surgical uniform and so the patient moved into The ICU room.

Even if it's a successful operation there is still the possibility of infection if it wouldn't check correctly.

The senior doctors nod at me and smiled genuinely while the other, have a stoic expression.

I step outside the room and saw veronica's smiling face and the mocking face of some of the seniors.

I rolled my eyes. Tsk, they can't just accept the fact that I can overdo them.

I wash my hands While veronica keeps on trailing me.

"Oh, my god! is the operation went successful? Yee Terry! Terry!, come on tell me already." I didn't look at her, ignoring her rants, and wash my hands thoroughly so as my face that has a little stain of blood.

"Hey! Tell it to me already I know that It went successful!" I shook my head and ignored her.

Heading to my office. "Yah! Terry doesn't Ignore me! I'm hurt!"

I assume she pouted. I rolled my eyes " What do you want to hear from me?" I said looking at her broadly.

" Of course about the operation and the president and oh! I remember you butler/ bodyguard?" I sighed heavily, Veronica, being veronica. Gossip is her, energizer.

" Let's talk it about in my office. wait for me there I'll be heading to one of my patients." I said, wearing my doctor's coat.

" Understand?" I added.

"Patient who?" She asked.

"It's Wayler." She raised her eyebrow and look at me straight in the eye.

" The little boy with brain problem? The craniectomy?" I nodded.

" Oh, alright I'll wait here." I nodded and head to Waylar's room.

. . . .

"HEY little boy, How are you feeling?" His eyes grew big and smiled widely.

I'm Happy That I can see him now smiling, While last month in his surgery, He Lost his hope and even made his life critical, and even made my surgery in the dip of failure, but he fought and survived, Tho I still have to monitor his condition for it Is A rare type of disease there might have some complication if not treated properly.

"Hi, Doc. Terry!"

I smiled, " I said How are you feeling?"

"I can still feel pain at the back of my head But I can say that I'm okay," he inhaled and then breathe out. "Mom is in the cafeteria anyway." He added.

I nodded and started to check his vital status.

"Preoperative and postoperative medications including Steroids (dexamethasone): For brain edema and inflammation. Antiepileptics (phenytoin, levetiracetam): Seizure prophylaxis or treatment. Osmotic diuretics (mannitol): Given intraoperatively to reduce brain bulk. Did You all give him this medication?" I asked the nurse beside me she nodded and ready the medicines.

While Wyler's Looking at us innocently.

"Inject it to his IV," I said.

The nurse started to take the medicines into Waylar's IV, that is when His mother get inside the room.

I looked at her and nodded.

"Hi Ma'am Illie," she smiled and nodded at me.

" It's nice seeing you doc Terry," She smiled making me nod.

After we took meds to Waylar, I let the nurse maneuver, and I bid my goodbye to go back to my office.

"That's a nice surgery, Miss Terry," I smiled at the Owner of the Hospital-Nathaniel.

"It's an honor to be Complimented by you, sir." He smiled. "What with a sir? Just call me Nathan," I shook my head.

"It'll be disrespectful sir," he chuckled and then shake his head.

"It's not to me so please, call me by my name I don't mind." I nodded slowly.

"Okay then, I'll be going Nathan see you around." he nodded, and wave his hand slowly.

" See You When I see you, Terry." I waved at him while walking.

.. . . . .

"The president gives you a riddle? and if you can answer it you'll be his doctor?" I rolled my eyes as Veronica being her-a gossiper.

"Yeah." She put her fingers below her chin and she looks like-a freak's-thinking deep-style.

"Oh? That must be related to his health," I sighed.

"Yeah, maybe. Because he asked me if what will happen to the heart if it'll stop beating, maybe he has heart disease." She nodded and snapped her fingers.

"Right! That's it, maybe that is the riddle." I just rolled my eyes at how she thinks so complicated.

"Don't mind it." She nodded and afterward grinning ear to ear.

I raised my eyebrow. " What's with the grin?" I asked.

" How about the butler?" she excitedly sits straight and looks at me attentively.

'This girl.'

"He's stoic," I said

she raised her eyebrows. "Is he old?" I shake my head for disapproval.

"He's around our age." She blinked twice and smiled triumphantly.

"I told you so!, Omg! is he handsome? A hunk? what? tell me!"

"He's stiff," she pouted,

"Oh C'mon Terry! Stiff?"

"He rarely talks, he doesn't smile, he's emotionless, and he is like a freaking human robot."

"You mean a man of Few words?" I looked at her and Nodded.

"Well, sort of Like that."

" Ah so sad, Where is he anyway? I wanna see him," She giggled.

I rolled my eyes, This girl.

"He's outside may be waiting for me." She yelled like a teenage girl.

"Let Me see let me see c'mon! I'll be riding with you let's go home,2" I frowned and raised my eyebrows, Like seriously?

" I still have rounds later afternoon," Frowning I said.

"Then We'll just go to the mall to eat lunch."

" The hospital has A cafeteria." She pouted again.

" Oh C'mon Terry! I just wanna see your bodyguard, Don't you want me to meet him? I'll just see how he looks and nothing more he's all yours." I frowned.

'What the heck is she talking about.' I shoot daggers while looking at her.

"What the heck are you saying?" She smirked and then stand up on the couch where she was sitting.

"Nevermind, Just let me see him c'mon!" I rolled my eyes and followed her.

D-mn this!.

. . . .

" He's So Handsome terry!" She whispered

Where currently in the backseat and Raverous the Bodyguard I driving, and after Veronica saw Raverous She become more annoying Than usual.

" Stop it, Veronica." I saw her pout in my peripheral View.

I rolled my eyes.

. . . .. . . .

"Hey, Mr. Butler aren't you going to eat?" Asked Veronica that Raverous didn't even care to look at, He's in my side anyways Guarding me as if anytime, someone might get me.

" You Can sit here Just Ravenous," I tap the chair beside me. He looks at the chair and nodded.

He sat at it.

"Don't you even wanna talk?" Asked again by veronica.

I was busy eating my meal but Veronica seems not interested in the food but in my bodyguard. This girl.

But Raverous is not the type of guy who speaks easily. He did not even respond in any of Veronica's Questions.

"Yah! Stop asking Him, and eat your food!" She pouted and eat her meal.

"Your a meanie, Terry. Killjoy." She murmured while eating.

After we ate our meal, I told them That we will be heading to the hospital, for I still have three patient's for the afternoon.

" Why is he not talking?" asked suddenly by Veronica when we get in the car.

" I told you so," She sighed and pouted.

" So sad, It seems that he really is capable in his job. But can't communicate."

I shake my head. " Stop ranting, How many patients you still have this afternoon?" I asked her.

" I still have Two patients this afternoon and one patient later night." I nodded.

"Oh? Okay then, anyways," I looked at Raverous

" I still have two patients a later night, can you still wait for me until nine o'clock in the evening?" I saw him nod.

" Yeah, I'll be waiting." I feel veronica flinch.

"What the hell is that terry, why did he talk? Do you have special powers? he freaking talk, while I asked so many questions, awhile ago and he didn't even respond in any of it!" She whispered half yelling at me.

I rolled my eyes " What's the big deal I told you He's Not a man of words, But a man of few words. And Oh? He only answers the question with sense, as for you? Your questions don't make sense." She Groaned and facepalmed.

" He's indeed a man of few word's freak, but Hey! My questions have a sense!"

" Enlighten me with the sense you were talking then."
