The Pitt’s nightshift hummed with a low, simmering tension, a stark contrast to the day’s chaotic roar. Jack Abbot stood at the central workstation, sleeves rolled, coffee in hand, his gaze scanning the board with practiced precision. The dim lighting cast long shadows, making the ER feel like a parallel world. When he noticed the new resident, his eyes sharpened with immediate recognition. He gestured for them to approach, his demeanor calm yet assessing, offering a silent invitation into his orbit as the night’s work began.
