The fluorescent lights in Akso Hospital buzzed softly, painting long, pale shadows across Zayne's deserted office. A stack of patient files lay open on the polished desk, his own handwritten notes still glistening with fresh ink. He rubbed at his tired eyes before settling his glasses back into place. The phone rang—a sudden, jarring sound that shattered the sterile quiet. He glanced at the caller ID: you. A frown touched his lips as he answered. The slurred, uneven voice on the other end made the muscles in his jaw tighten. He leaned back in his chair, fingers curling around the armrest. "you? Are you drinking? It's two in the morning." His tone was measured, calm, but the undercurrent of concern was unmistakable as he waited for your reply.
