Chapter 14
I just arrived home to our dorm, just when I open the door. Jenn’s face already welcome me, brows crunched and lips protruding “What happened to you?”
She didn’t bother to look at me and stays scanning her phone.
I put my things on my side table as I removed my uniform to get things.
“Why does he look thinner?” Jenn murmured.
“Huh?” I asked looking over her.
She immediately showed me her phone, picture of Theodore wearing a guitar on his body. He is walking maybe it was from the backstage because of the dark sorrounding. He looks worn out, sweats evident in the picture while his mouth is slightly agape maybe from gasping.
“He looks thinner right?” Jenn asked.
I creased my brows “I don’t know? Doesn’t he look like that all the time?”
Jenn checked the picture again, brows the same since I came “Noooo. He looks thinner and his skin looks paler”
I just shrugged “Maybe because he’s tired. Or on a diet”
Jen straightened her back from leaning on her bed “I don’t think so”
I just continued changing because I still have to go to the library after.

"You don't look stress out" Caren side commented.
I looked at her brows creasing "I just started my training Caren. It's not like I'm already operating someone."
"Well, I already see in the movies. All those medical people, they can't even sleep."
"Some parts of the movies are the same in reality, some parts are not." I uttered.
Her lips went downright while nodding her head as she stacks all the papers in her hand. 
"But I know someone who look stress out" I stated as I see him walking towards us. All covered up except for his eyes but that's didn't hide his tired pair of eyes. 
Caren looked at him surprised "Theo, what happened?" 
"Excuse me" I walked out, not wanting to get even the same space as him. I don't want to be called a fangirl again. 
"Nothing serious Caren. I just want some escape" I heard as I go over some of the cabinets to arrange some vinyls.

Days passed like hurricane. I'm doing good on my training days, some days it's fun because I'm learning through experiences and some days it's tiring but it's part of the learning.
I often see Theo visiting the hospital but I always make sure we don't meet or even glance to each other. Like today, he's here in the hospital but unlike his usual day that he wears his casual clothes. He's wearing a hospital gown. And as days comes by, he's getting thinner and slimmer. But I didn't really mind it at all. 
It was the next day when I was still on duty, I was on my way to go home. Still wearing the uniform on the way to our locker when I passed by the same room Theo checked in. 
I checked the door and it's still his name printed on it. 
"Yes what do you need? Are you on rounds?" I hopped on my place as a lady's voice echoed at my side.
It is a doctor. She smiled at me, ghost of confusion on her face. I looked at her name plate to see her name and below it is written Psychiatrist.
What the fudge! What's the meaning of this? So theo is facing a mental problem? I thought he's here for just only check up? He's along lying and he's along a patient?

"Why is he lie-lowing?" Jenn murmured.
I glanced at her, seeing her reaction I already pictured and assumed something. She's checking Theo again. 
"He's sick? Is it something serious?" Jenn looked at me and I just ignore it. 
So he didn't hide the fact that he's sick but didn't said the main reason. So it's serious. 
"Jenn" I uttered, confuse if I should tell her or not. 
Jenn hummed as she responded to me, "Yes?"
I heaved a sighed and shook my head "No nothing"
Jenn's brows creased but still didn't mind it. 
I know I'm still on training but still, sharing patient's information is forbidden. I should just don't mind it at all as if I don't know him. 
That's it! That's what I should do. I don't care. I don't know him and I should forget about it.

"You are assigned and under Miss Gomez for now" The attending told me. 
"Sorry ma'am? May I ask why am I assigned to Miss Gomez?" I asked. 
She just gave me a side eye glance and I was immediately shut up. Do I really have a choice here? I'm just a trainee. They are my bosses at the moment. 
"Proceed to Miss Gomez right now. Just only for a week. After that you can go back training behind me" 
That was a relief for me, atleast only for a week. 
***
"I will assign you one by one, each of you have to check and do rounds with my patient." Miss Gomez uttered as three of us trainees are behind her tailing. 
"Mr. Thomas, please do some rounds on Mrs. Garcia. She has dementia, here's here paper. It's your duty today, assist her and do the regular check up" Ms. Gomez handed the paper as she looks at Ms. Kang beside me, "Mr. Dominguez, PSTD. Just the usual check up and after you finish, proceed to the office and give me a hand."
After Ms. Gomez gave them the papers containing the background health information of the patients, she stopped walking and look over me. 
I stopped and waited for her to hand me over my assignment for the day. 
"Ms. Collins, you are going with me. This is a very important patient, Once we go inside and face the patient, no information should be scattered outside that room. It's very confidential, hope I'm right on choosing you as my right hand today."
I gulped at the information. Crap! I guess this is it. The actual is here.
