Description
“Twins? Bad…” he says coldly without taking his eyes off my story. “Vika, from me?” he adds just as dryly and briefly.
“Gordey Vitalyevich, does it really matter?” I try to speak casually, as if his question doesn’t hurt me at all. “Here you are as a specialist cardiologist, and I’m in the role of your patient. We’ve swapped places, and now I need your help. What will you recommend, doctor?”
“In our situation there’s only one… ” He fixes me with a steel gaze of icy gray eyes, finishing with a harsh verdict:
“An abortion.”
I fell in love with a colleague and the father of my little ward, breaking medical ethics and my personal principles—and he… cynically sent me to an abortion. Soon after that, I caught him in the arms of one of the employees. I thought Gordey didn’t need anyone besides his dead wife, and he just didn’t need… me.
For those two tiny hearts beating beneath mine, and for my own—I'll have to fight alone.
