「𝑰𝑺𝑨𝑩𝑬𝑳𝑳𝑨」

𝑰 𝑼𝑺𝑼𝑨𝑳𝑳𝒀 𝑾𝑨𝑲𝑬 𝑼𝑷 𝑾𝑯𝑬𝑵 𝑴𝒀 𝑨𝑳𝑨𝑹𝑴 goes off but today I woke up thirty minutes earlier. I was having my tea while looking out of the glass window at the city. The alarm went off and snapped me out of my thoughts. 

I turned it off and walked downstairs. I washed the cup then went back upstairs to have a shower and get ready for work.

After my shower I wrapped my towel around me and brushed my teeth for the second time this morning. I walked out of the bathroom once I was done and found my outfit for today. When I finally found the perfect outfit for the cold weather that had took upon today I got dressed. 

I then dried my hair and brushed them. I decided to let them fall down my shoulders this time since I rarely do anymore. I mean my hair had grown pretty long but I like them this way. I've always liked my hair long.

I did my make up natural then grabbed my bag and walked downstairs. I walked out of my apartment and locked the door then took the elevator. After a few seconds the elevator doors opened again and I stepped out of it then out of the building.

I started walking towards the hospital I worked. It wasn't that far from my apartment and I enjoyed walking. Today was pretty cold though. I hate cold weather. I mean when it's cold I would rather stay home under the blankets not get out of my safe place (my apartment) and go at work.

Don't get me wrong I love my job. As Irene says I'm a workaholic person. I spend a lot of time at the hospital where I work. I call it passion. I'm just too passionate of my work. And kinda obsessed.

I heard a loud gunshot and covered my ears and closed my eyes falling on the ground. My heart started beating faster. I was on the edge of a panic attack. When I opened my eyes and looked up I saw a man falling on the ground the blood dripping. ''NICO!''

The guy next to him rushed to his side and I crossed the street without even checking for any cars and kneeled down. ''Hey hey look at me. Hold on okay? Stay with me.'' I said looking in his eyes. He looked in my eyes then seconds later he closed them. This doesn't look good. At all. 

I looked down at his wounds and noticed that he had two bullets one of them pretty close to his heart. Dangerously close.

''We can't wait for the ambulance we have to rush him at the hospital now.'' I said looking at the guy. ''Who are you?'' He asked looking at me. ''I'm a doctor.'' I said and he nodded. He helped me get the injured guy in the back seats of his car I suppose. I had his head on my lap and pressed with a cloth his wounds trying to somehow stop the blood. ''Nicola hold on bro. Per favore resta in linea.'' Italian. They were Italian. 

I swallowed and looked down at the guy.

When we arrived at the hospital I got out of the car. ''PETER GET A STRETCHER HURRY.'' I called and took my coat off. I grabbed my uniform and rushed in the surgery room.

Two wounds. Two bullets. ''You have to be really careful. The second bullet is way too close to his heart. A wrong move and the bleeding might go out of control.'' The second surgeon, Elijah said and I nodded. ''I know.'' I whispered and bite my lip softly.

One bullet was out. Now it was time for the second bullet. I slowly took the bullet out and sighed in relief. ''He's a fighter.'' Elijah said and I smiled. ''He is.''

After a while I walked out of the surgery room and was surprised by the crowd of people that was there waiting. ''We're Niocola's family. Is he okay?'' A woman that was probably Nicola's mother asked. I was taken back by how many people where here.

''We took the bullets out but the first twenty four hours are really risky. We have to watch him the whole night.'' I said. ''Thank you. If you weren't there..'' The guy that drove us at the hospital that was probably Nicola's brother said causing me to smile softly. ''That's my job. I'm glad we came just in time.'' I said and he nodded.

''When can we see him?'' Someone else asked. ''Unfortunately you are not able to see him yet. We'll see if he wakes up tomorrow you'll be able to see him. Now excuse me.'' I said. ''Thank you.'' The woman said and I nodded. ''I did my job.'' I once again said and walked off.

I walked in the bathroom and took off my uniform to see the guys blood all over my clothes. The door opened and Irene, my best friend of ten years walked in. ''What happened?'' She asked. ''Nothing I just helped a guy that got shoot.'' I said and washed my hands. ''Hmm got shoot? Suspicious.'' She said resting her back against the wall crossing her arms.

I didn't think much about it. We were in Chicago. It was dangerous out there. 

''Do you want me to bring you clean clothes?'' She asked. Irina had the late night shift at her section so she was now leaving. ''Ugh I love you but you should go get some rest hon.'' I said. ''Ugh shut up. I'll get you some clean clothes then go get some sleep.'' She said and I smiled softly. ''Thank you. You're the best.'' I said and she chuckled. ''Please I know. By the way why are they twenty people in the waiting room?'' She asked pointing at the door.

''It's the guys family.'' I said and she nodded. ''Crowded as fuck. Even more suspicious.'' She chuckled.

Irina did as she said. She brought me clean clothes then left. I went and checked on Nicola and most of his family were gone. I looked at the guy and for some reason I wanted to make sure he was going to be okay. I pushed that feeling away. 

I might have stayed all night by his side to make sure nothing happened over the night. And kind of accidentally fell asleep on the chair.

What a great fucking doctor.

The heart machine was making a noise and I rubbed my eyes and opened them. I stood up and checked the machine. His heart was beating a little faster than it should. I was about to walk off when someone grabbed my wrist.

I turned and saw Nicola awake. I looked down at his hand and he slowly let my wrist go.

''Thank you... for saving my life.'' He said softly. I smiled softly looking at him. ''You're welcome it's my job.'' I said. ''Is it? Must have been my lucky day.'' he snorted and I shook my head. ''Well I do think it was your lucky day. If you call it lucky getting shoot and almost dying.'' I said and all he did was chuckle softly. 

''I'll go inform your family that you're awake.'' I said and walked out of the room. Zain was the first that rushed my way and the rest followed.

''Nicola is awake. You will be able to see him in couple minutes, after we transport him in a room.'' I said. ''Oh thank God.'' The mother said and sighed in relief smiling softly. They all looked revealed.

I made my way towards my office and sighed softly rubbing my forehead. I took a seat and just then my phone rang. I grabbed it and answered since it was my mother.

''Hey mum.'' I said resting my chin on my palm. ''Hey. I saw you had called yesterday. Sorry I was busy and couldn't answer.'' She said and I was sure she was at her office working on a case once again.

Busy... like always.

She has been busy her whole life. Busy when it was time for parents conference. Busy when I had my recitals. Busy when my birthday came. 

''Ohh okay sorry for bothering you. I just called to tell you-''

''Bella I'm sorry I have to go my client is here. We'll talk later okay?'' She said and I sighed. ''Okay. Bye...'' I said. ''Bye.'' And with that she ended the call.

I looked down at her contact then locked my phone. A knock on the door snapped me out of my thoughts. ''Come in.'' I said and grabbed a patients file. ''Hey doctor Ricci. I thought you would have left by now. Your shift is over.'' Ema, one of the nurses said while walking in closing the door behind. ''I'm staying till late again.'' I said and smiled softly. ''You're doing too much. You should rest at times you know. You overwork.'' She said and I sighed.

''I'm good Em thank you for your concern.'' I said in all honesty. ''Okay okay looks like you're not in mood for that talk but that conversation is not over. Anyways Elijah sent me here to grab Jones file.'' She said with a smile. ''Hmm Elijah.'' I smirked. ''Do not start miss Bella. Don't make me start too.'' She smirked and I laughed. ''I'm not dating anyone. Here you go Jones file.'' I said handing it to her.

''How was the date?'' I asked causing her to bite her lip. ''Extremely romantic.'' She said making her way towards the door. ''Have fun.'' I sing sang and she laughed thanking me before leaving my office.

I had decided to stay at the hospital and not go home and here I am now having lunch with Irina at the hospital cafeteria. ''Bella you are overworking yourself. Your shift was over hours ago. Why not go home and rest?'' She said for like the millionth time. ''Can we change the subject? Like come on now Iri.'' I groaned.

''Ugh you are such a child I swear.'' She frowned. ''You love me anyways.'' I smirked. ''I do. And that's what you always use against me. My love for you.. bitch.'' She said causing me to laugh. ''How's the patient you brought?'' She asked before taking a bite of her sandwich. ''He's good. He's recovering pretty well.'' I said and took a sip of my water.

''That's nice. Is he hot?'' She asked causing me to roll my eyes. ''Oh My God Iri.'' I said causing her to shrug. ''What? I saw a hot guy at the waiting room.'' She said. ''Hmm that's good for you.'' I muttered. ''It's him.'' She said pointing towards a table where Nicola's brother was sitting with two other guys.

''You find hot every guy come on.'' I said standing up. ''That is a lie. I find hot humans that look like art. And he does look like art damn.'' She said biting her lip.

''You're a weirdo.'' I said walking off. ''I am and I am very proud of it thank you very much.'' She said following.

''I'll see you later at dinner.'' I said and she smiled and nodded. ''Gotta go.'' She said and walked towards the elevator.

''Bella we need you at the emergency section.'' Ema said and I rushed with her at the emergency section.

Now this is how my days go by.
