Walking into the hospital her boss Mr Ben was really excited to see her
Amanda you are a sight for sore eyes
as her boss gave her a welcoming hug
We are short staffed but with you am sure we can attend to a reasonable amount of our sailor friends today.
Standing with her boss was a very handsome man
Amanda I will like to introduce Dr David Hudson. His practices is on the maintain.
Dr Hudson is the owner of Red Springfield hospital.
Nice to finally meet you. Smiled Amanda,
My sister in law, Mary Evergreen works at your hospital.
Stretching out his hands and giving Amanda one of the most unique smiles Amanda has seen
He replied as their hands touch
The pleasure is all mine
Mr Ben told Amanda she will be working with Mary the new intern to input the sailors data into the hospital database
While Nurse Kate and Nurse Winifred will check the vitals and extract blood from the sailors which will be immediately sent to the Center for Disease Control.
He also told her they have 10 doctors from the mainland too
As Amanda walked towards the breakfast stand to get coffee she heard Nurse Kate talking to Nurse Winifred
Trust me Winny am ready to have his baby. That doctor is to die for
They both laughed
Pray tell who's baby and who are you ready to die for?
Amanda walked in on them from behind.
Amanda!
They both hug her.
How have you been?
Asked Nurse Winny
Have you been discharged? I admitted you yesterday when you fainted.
asked Nurse Kate
Amanda pls tell me you are here to lend a helping hand
Am much better Kate. Thank you so much for all you did yesterday and yes am back to work. I can't stay home with all this action, it's going to keep my mind off George
so work here I come
Not just back to work but now a celebrity
Said Mary the intern as she walk toward them.
Yes the news. Winny said
The kiss said Kate
That kiss was everything. Added Mary
They all, including Amanda started laughing
Please don't remind me of that kiss, don't, said Amanda playfully
But I want to be reminded
That voice sent cold shiver down her Spain
When they all turned they saw Richard Evergreen
Amanda almost fainted.
The resemblance was uncanny
My God he looks like George
Mutter Mary and Nurse Winny
Good morning sir
Was all Amanda could get out of her mouth
Still in shock and embarrassed at what he just said
looking into his eyes this morning the resemblance between her late husband and Mr Richard was really scary
They could pass for identical twins
Amanda was shocked at herself for looking down when their eyes met.
Was she shy?
Am Sorry about yesterday. She said
I apologise for my outbursts yesterday too. Added Mr Richard
Silent
My condolences madam
Amanda nodded in response
Odd silence
He looked at Mary, Kate and Winny
They all quickly Said their good morning and disappeared towards the breakfast stand, leaving Amanda and Mr Richard
He walked close to Amanda and whispered
Don't ever say you are trying to forget our kiss
It's the only thing making sense and keeping me sane in this mad house
before she could reply him he was gone.
What just happen!
Did she hear him right or was he joking
No he was joking said Amanda as she walk towards the breakfast stand.
She walked towards Mary her sister Inlaw.
Mary was discussing with Dr Hudson
Hello again He said.
Amanda was just smiling
Hello again Dr Hudson
You met already? Interjected Mary
Yes Mr Ben just introduced us barely 10mins ago.
Mary have you seen Mr Richard Evergreen? Asked Amanda
Yes I was about to go introduce myself.
It's like am looking at George in the flesh. This is scary
Speaking to Dr Hudson
I will be back David please keep Amanda company. Take care of her. ok
As Mary walked towards Mr Richard, Amanda could not help but notice that she just called Dr Hudson by his name David.
Mr Hudson smiling towards Amanda held her hand and directed her towards the breakfast table.
Mary said to look after you. In a cool seductive voice.
He tried to explain his moves.
Amanda laughing told him. Do you always do what Mary say?
If I don't want my head cut off.
Amanda gave out a loud laugh
Yessssss. Mary can do that,
they both laugh.
Looking up her eye caught that of Richard Evergreen and he looked really upset.
Did Mary tell him about his wife and son?
That could have been really horrible.
Dr Hudson handed her a cup of coffee.
She smiled
Thank you.
So tell me Dr Hudson
Are you and Mary dating?
This time It was Dr Hudson who gave out a loud laugh
Amanda you are really funny.
Am not sure I can meet up to Mary's standards
######
Trying so hard to listen to his only descendant
Mr Richard turn to find out who gave out that loud laugh
It was the really handsome man talking to Amanda, he was mad.
Why was he mad?
He does not know Amanda that well
Was it because she was somehow related to him?
This is not how a decent woman interact with another man in public.
200 years later or not.
Women should respect themselves
To take his mind off Amanda, Richard asked Mary
Tell me about your dad
He died in a car crash.
I don't know what a car crash is but am sure I will soon find out
Come over here and tell me all about yourself
Mary felt he was a nice calm gentleman and decided to keep her family secret from him.
Well maybe not today.
He looked happy to see her.
Mary told him she was a doctor. That she stay on the mainland.
She told him his Villa he erected a long time ago was still standing but that her grandparents built a much more luxurious one and Amanda stay in that one now.
She told him that after the medicals he will have to move in with Amanda till she remodelled his Villa.
Secretly Mr Richard loved the idea of staying under the same roof with Amanda.
How did your brother pass?
Cancer.
What is Cancer? Richard asked
It's a disease.
Mary Informed him
You could not treat him? You told me you are a doctor
No sir, am a GP and he needed an oncologist
Am sure I will find out what an Oncologist is soon
They both smiled
How is his wife holding on?
Do they have kids?
No, the Cancer was really bad so they could not. If you know what I mean.
You see the love they both share was very deep
They were both high school sweetheart
#######
It was about 2pm when her Boss Mr Ben told them to take a break.
The lunch for the sailors just arrived so he felt they all needed to take a break and go for lunch
As Amanda was going to the ladies she heard her name.
Mrs Evergreen
It was Mr Richard
Good afternoon sir
How are you holding on? Asked Amanda
Am good.
I noticed you were throwing yourself at that Dr earlier
Are you looking for a mate?
Are you so lonely that you want any man?
Amanda was upset and was ready to give him a piece of her mind
Mr Richard, you don't know me from Adams, why are you insulting me?
Stop pretending, my father told me about lose woman like you. Like Alice
What are you talking about? Who Is Alice?
Yesterday you kissed me, today you are with another man. Shamefully flirting.
Are you looking for a new mate less than a month from when you buried your husband
Amanda slapped him.
In one quick move, he moved her to the back door and before Amanda knew what was happening
He kissed her.
At 1st Amanda was trying to fight it but before she knew it her body, her mind gave in to his lips, his lips were soft and hard at the same time.
His tongue parted her lips as it explored inside her mouth.
His hand found her hard soft breast. His hand travelled to her hard nipple. This was heaven
He wanted to run his hand through her breast since yesterday. He can't wait when his tongue could explore her Nipple
Just a gentle reminder how it felt the 1st time we kissed.
Don't ever forget our kiss
And he was gone
