The patient was the last one of the day, "Thank god," I thought to myself. It was Friday and it had been a long day and an even longer week. My life seemed to be an endless parade of patient's, visits at the office and rounds at the hospital. I couldn't remember my last day off.

His almond eyes flickered with power, the power he has over me. "What of my story Joss? Don't you like it?" I asked.
