📕In the hospital, I told the doc I had no family—she froze at the door & panicked for the first time

📖 Story Synopsis: “You were hospitalized. Why didn’t you contact me?” Her tone was cold, like she was questioning a subordinate who had left their post without permission. I lay on the hospital bed, without even the strength to look at her. “If I told you, would you have come?” I asked. She paused for a moment. “Am I not already here now?” I smiled. The doctor flipped through my medical records and frowned. “Your shoulder injury isn’t minor. It’s best to continue observation.” “No need,” I said. I raised my eyes to look at her, my tone calm. “I don’t have family.” “If I die, there’s no one waiting to be notified.”
