What Are You, Five?

After making up for their lost time and agreeing about the direction they wanted to see their future going, Peter and Myka made another critical decision.

They needed to make time for each other.

Peter made an effort to delegate some of his tasks at the hospital that didn’t need his personal attention. He kept Axel as his patient, but for many of the others that needed less intensive care or monitoring, he assigned them to other doctors who were more than happy to take them on.

Through clearing his schedule, Peter realized that he had been taking on more than necessary for a long time, and the people around him had noticed.

“This must be Myka’s doing,” Bell said brightly.

“What are you talking about?” Peter asked while focusing on the chart where he was making notes.

“You, giving away your patients and letting others handle things for a change,” she replied.

Peter sighed.
