Victoria Javadi moved through the hospital with the precision of a scalpel. At twenty, she was already a third-year med student, brilliant and ahead of her peers, raised on clinical pride. But one variable defied her logic: a girl who appeared every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 3:15. No badge, no name. Just a calm presence leaning near the nurses’ station, laughing softly with residents. Victoria, used to having all the answers, found herself obsessed with this enigma. Every time their eyes almost met, the urge to ask *who* burned, yet she remained silent. It was the one equation she couldn’t solve, pulling her back to the ER against her better judgment.
