Chapter One
Richmond's POV“What's your problem Richmond?” Mr Sullivan or rather my dad's voice thundered into my living room immediately I opened the front door of my apartment. He slammed the door behind him, the heels of his oxford following right behind meIt was a norm for him to come banging at my door once there's a complaint from school, but not on a Monday morning, not when I have been at my best, in school though“What have I not done this time?” I stopped to answer him, already tired of his unending demands on being a better son, and pissed at his presence. “I'm tired Dad, I am really not ready for all these naggings. My word, it's an early Monday morning, don't you have a briefing at work?” my eyes met his rage filled eyes.“I wouldn't be here if you learnt to behave properly. You can't just live as you want Richmond, you can't rub all this shame on me.”‘Shame?’ what the fuck was he talking about?’ I ran my head through everything, every activity, every corner that I would have messe

I crossed my arms on my chest and leaned closer to Brad whose lips extended in a smile. He increasingly became reluctant to tell me the secret he's been keeping. If he's scared I'll be upset, then I'll really be upset and I couldn't make promises I couldn't keep.“Tell me what it is Brad,” I screamed in his ears. “Talk man, I'm curious here.” My brows narrowed in, as I held his shoulders.His eyes were firm on my face, and the effect of the alcohol was distorting his balance. “You'll really be upset Richmond, I know. I'm sorry I went that far.” “What are you talking about?” A smirk had plastered on my face, I left him, walked a few steps away and returned to him, but I didn't hold him again. The frown on my face got deeper. “C'mon Richmond, I just needed a chance with Lauren.” The smile on his face was replaced by a faint face, his countenance was like one who wants to cry.“Lauren? What's all these about?” I paced about again and returned, my heart beat had increased, my lips clut

I reluctantly dressed up in a pair of grey shorts with a vintage shirt after washing my face in the bathroom sink. The breeze would be heavy when it gets dark so I carried my jacket.I hadn't had that long hour of rest in a while. Brad had called twice, Lauren too. I didn't feel any interest in attending this party. It was optional but I had to be there for Brad, the same Brad who's betraying me.The last school party I attended only came alive when I stepped in, that was two years ago, probably that was the reason Brad wanted me to come. He wanted to enjoy the party with Lauren and he wanted me to add live to it.The drive down to the beach was slow, quiet. Only honks of impatient drivers blared on every corner and police siren chorusing about some few blocks away.Dr. Starr's lips had made an impression on mine, my brain had made a snapshot of her smell, I could still scent her on my skin. Our kiss didn't live long, though not in my head even though it didn't get past that. Her wor

I sat on the chair beside Anna when I entered the office. Dr. Starr sat across us at the other side of the table, leaning her back on the executive office chair, with a script in her hand.My face furrowed in a frown, I placed clenched fists on my thighs while my foot quietly tapped the floor like a music beat.“Mr. Sullivan, Anna was telling me how you contributed to the ER simulation I tasked you both to carry out. Did you do this work?” Her voice was soft, calm; but it came at me like a bullet shot from a pistol.I stayed quiet, took my gaze away from Dr. Starr's face which had lost all the intensity in her enticing grey eyes to the window pane behind her.“Richmond, I'm asking you a question and you dare not answer.” Her tone rose, I could feel her anger, but mine was higher.“Dr. Starr, I and Rich…” Anna confidently began a lie but I interrupted her.“Shut the fuck up you idiot.” I yelled, “all of this wouldn't happen if there was no scholarship, how would else would you afford t

The hallway was a lot busier than usual. I maintained my focus ahead like I always, not concerned about who was passing-by.The last person I had wanted to talk to met me just at the entrance of the lecture theatre allocated to my class.“Hey Richmond. I've been trying to reach you for about two days now.” Anna stood in front of me, obstructing my passage. Her hair was packed into a ponytail revealing her green eyes.“What for?” I replied, a smirk masked on my face.“Dr. Starr's assignment.”Memory of the evening with Dr. Starr filled up my thoughts. I shoved it off as I shoved Anna out of my way. “Excuse me.” I mumbled.I went straight to my seat at the left back corner of the lecture theatre, not replying to anyone's greetings. I was popular on social media a few days ago, probably why they want to fraternize with me. This feeling made me proud of myself, and I was determined to do better in my academics.Bradley came in with Lauren. It looked like they had slept in the same house,

Dr. Starr had snapped out of the kiss shortly after it started, her voice re-echoed in my head as I drove back home, “we shouldn't be doing this,” she had said when she pulled herself out of the couch.My thought was fixed on her calling eyes, the tan top she wore, I still felt the softness of her skin. I barely focused on the road as I drove, almost flooring the gas pedal.I could still feel her soft lips on mine, her smell lingered on my shirt, I kept sniffing on it trying to let off the pain of the disappointment in every exhale. Disappointed that I didn't get too lucky or I let down my guards and did what I wasn't supposed to do.“SHIT.” I immediately pushed the honk when my attention drifted to a man dressed in ragged clothes moving across the front of my car. I had almost hit him. I floored the brake, “Watch where you are going, man.” I screamed at him.The memories of Dr Starr's lips on my mind would not leave my mind easily, I had to find a way to sort it out.I changed the ro

The meeting with my dad went worse than anticipated, I barely said a thing. He kept jumping from me doing this to not being that but I was patient and tried to not give my emotions a chance.While he was running his mouth, my thoughts were on their race; jumping between the short moment my eyes were locked on Dr. Liz Starr's, and the chances of my medical career being interfered by my hurting past. By Anna. By my betraying mom.If I have to get past this, I'll have to take Brad's ideas; I'll have to make peace with myself. Choose the grief of being hurt over a medical career I'm proud about.But what if my mom is dead? My heart beat became harder and faster, I wished my dad would skip to that.But like always, everything had to be about him.

Dr. Starr's office table was large with only a stack of a few books at the left end. Seated in front of her on the opposite side of the table, I couldn't stop imagining bending her over the table.Her long dark hair dropped on her shoulders, covering the arm of the blue A line dress, her head was in a straight firm position as she fixed her green eyes on me.“Mr. Sullivan, there's no way that's going to happen, you won't choose your patient nor would you choose your attending during residency.” She said with a soft, but firm voice.I wanted to explain to her, I wanted her to know the emotional torture I'll go through if she doesn't change Anna as my partner, but I didn't want her to see the soft part of me.“Even if emotions were attached?” I finally was bold to maintain eye contact.She didn't flinch.“Would you want to tell me more?” She leaned towards me from her side of the table. She placed her elbow on the table, using her arm to support her head.The curious expression on her f

Aside from partying; reading medical journals and medical books keeps me sane. Becoming a doctor has been the best decision of my life, it's the only thing I have.My attention drifted from the ipad screen placed on the table in my study to the mobile phone that buzzed non stop. Brad.Bradley asked if I could offer him a ride to school. “Yes man.” I nodded. “Sure.” I went into the bedroom, threw a black tee over my naked skin and with all the excitement and energy of a new day, I made it down stairs to start preparing.‘Today should be a good day.’ I said to myself, dancing every step through the stairway.“Hey.” A female's voice which I could only remember it's moaning and screaming my name almost the entire night startled me, breaking the excitement, the dance.I froze, my heart skipped, but started beating harder and faster almost immediately. “Jeez.” The only word that managed out of my throat.“I'm making breakfast.” She smiled and pursed her lips.Her blonde hair was packed wi

Not her? Not my mom, but who'd have such strong semblance with her? A relative of her I haven't known about or is she my sister? Step sister rather. These thoughts of surprise and curiosities were accompanied by anger and I won't hold myself raising a hand on this woman.I dropped my ipad on the table infront of her, peered at her with a smirk on my face. I heard chuckles and giggles from the other members of the class, and I could feel their eyes staring, expecting a scene.“Who the fuck you think you are?” My voice was firm and strong, with furrowed brows and clenched jaws.“I don't understand?” She carried her face to meet mine.I was about to throw my clenched fist into her face, before Bradley blocked my arm mid air.“Take it easy man.” He jumped between me and the new girl, shoving me farther away from her. “Calm down bro.”Other members of the class jumped to the scene. What was their business though? Once it's about me, everyone jumps in, most times the crowd is against me esp
