Analysing His Feelings

Day Sixty-Five…

~~*****~~

Nathan was still in a trance when the door of his office was pushed open. Stephen barged in. "What happened to Jane?" he questioned Nathan.

Stephen's voice snapped him out of his stupor. He glanced at the doctor meaningfully, motioning him to pick up the document and leave. Sensing the heavy tension surrounding the two men, the doctor immediately grabbed the document on the floor and stepped out of Nathan's office.

"You may sit first," Nathan simply said, maintaining his composure. He was contemplating whether to tell Stephen about Jane's illness or just hide it from him. But one thing was for sure, he didn't want Ethan to know about this.

"Nate, just answer me. I'm worried about her. What is her condition?" Stephen asked him again in his desperate tone.

Nathan heaved a deep sigh. He was still shaken by Jane's illness. He didn't want to believe the result. He would like to get a second opinion from other doctors.
