Still working with John on his arm and satisfied that he recovered so quickly, I told him that he could go home the following week. But as usual he just stares at me with that look of hunger and said nothing.

As I was finished Dr Scott came in. "Morning Leila, morning John, and how are you today? It looks like you are healed and ready to go, I assume Dr Leila told you you could go home with in a weeks time?"  John looked at me with a wicked smile and a look that said is he serious, and keep staring at me like he was undressing me when he said "Yes, she just told me. Thank you Dr Scott." 

I remember that smooth velvety voice as it was yesterday when he spoke to his friends. And as always I was jelly to the bone, I couldn't move and blamed my traitorous body. He was so glad that he still had an effect on me by standing still that my heart did a little flip. But I found it was yet again not to me that he spoke to.

As Dr Scott was leaving I couldn't move and just stand there as if I was waiting for him to say something to me but his eyes kept roaming my body and delving into my eyes looking for his next release and it is driving me wild. So I left frustrated, to go see my other patients still feeling broken, unsatisfied and somehow turned on.

As I was working on Ben my knee replacement patient, he kept on talking about his wife and there children. It was so different from working on John. Why, o why do I need to think of him now, he is one infuriating man. 

Ben snap his fingers in front of me. "Sorry I was just thinking" "No problem. When do you think I will be able to walk as my ass is getting sore everyday." "We can try to walk next week if your up to it. What do you say, but I must in from you to do one exercises but it is going to hurt a bit, if you can manage it, I say why not."  

He was so eager to do it so I told him to sit on the side of the bed and lift his feet up as far as possible. He was so full of him self, but only manage do lift it up only for a few seconds and only a few centimeter but it was progress. " Do it a few more times but not more than 15 tries with intervals of 10 minutes at a time. You need to let your muscle relax also and then you can let it work again, think of it like you work all day but needs rest at night." 

"Why do I have to do it like this and not stand and do it." Ben asked.

"When you are standing and walking your leg goes automatically forward, but when you sit you exercises the muscle's and makes it strong." 

When he was satisfied with my response he tried again and kept it longer. So I said my farewell and left for my office. 

Heading to my office to finish of the day I heard my phone ring, I look at the caller ID and saw it was the school.
