I Should Go Now

Summary

Juan Shaw was Harbor City's youngest chief of cardiac surgery. Everyone said his hands were the steadiest, and his heart was the coldest as well.

But I knew he wasn't incapable of gentleness.

It was just that his gentleness was simply never meant for me.

The day after our engagement, my father suddenly had a stroke and was rushed to the emergency room. The nurse told me they needed two immediate family members to sign the consent form.

I called Juan right away. The phone rang for a long time before he picked up, and a woman's weak sobs came through the line.
