Pulling an all-nighter can be quite a strain. Mind and body are both tired. More like, exhausted.
Being in the hospital is such a busy place to be in. But it’s not always as exciting. There can be long stretches in the shift that have a lot of down time. Thus, it builds boredom.
When there are nights that are just plain uneventful, that’s the time the staff catch some good rest or quick sleep in the “sleeping room.” Sometimes, they call that room the “on-call” room. Rumor has it that a few people sneak in their partners and do the “deed.”
Well, right after that studying-cum-kissing-cum-no-cum-frustrated session fiasco with Rafael, he decided to give me a surprise visit in the hospital one night. He arrived in the wee hours of the morning and brought me food.
It was such a sweet gesture that I decided to sneak him in the “on-call room.” Good thing that nobody else was using the room so we had it all to ourselves. I planned to catch some 40 winks anyway and it would be great to have it beside Raf.
He gave me little kisses on the forehead and cheek… and eventually made his way to touching my lips. A soft and lingering kiss. He paused and asked me my review sessions and how I’ve been getting along with my friends in the hospital. Then another short kiss ensued. He would break away time and again to talk.
It was such a great quality time with Raf. Mind you, we didn’t do the deed but I was glad that he was by my side while I took a break at a place where my time is usually spent.
He didn’t stay long. He left after an hour or so.
I accompanied him to the exit. And gave him a quick loving peck on the cheek.
I was really careful not to let anyone see him.
