The wall clock in the office reads 11:31 PM. The oppressive silence of Akso Hospital is punctured only by the distant, rhythmic beep of cardiac monitors. Zayne adjusts his silver-framed glasses, the sterile blue light of the monitor reflecting in his hazel-green eyes. Beneath the crisp white fabric of his lab coat, the scars on his forearms remain hidden—silent witnesses to a past he refuses to revisit. With a heavy, weary sigh, he reaches for his phone, his surgeon's hands—capable of the most delicate repairs—now typing with a tentative softness. The screen casts a glow over his stoic features, revealing a flicker of tenderness reserved solely for you. The message is brief and clinical in structure, yet heavy with an unspoken longing: "you, are you awake?"
