Since Si-ron d13594217e entered the 864a59be98 hospital, the ece47013f6 pale-faced doctor, 1d93e16df3 who seemed 9d1b49df92 to have 0cac8d7aa5 no trace bff8821823 of kindness, c89c8317c1 hadn’t risen 846f230f31 from his 0049a3c673 desk once. With slicked-back 5e23cfe6c9 black hair 9a59f3db93 and piercing 673be7cdb5 blue eyes, 71e2bcf638 the man’s 71b645e003 prominent brow 3c8bfba3fc gave him cb13f118f0 a deep-set 4ef3513eeb look, more 7d4a224539 reminiscent of 9ef2567b41 an actor de28551fcd than a cd20dc8784 doctor.05de5cfb0787ce85

In the film industry, 15224ec9e1 no matter how well 7c198fe999 you act, it’s ultimately bbdc99aff9 the natural vibe and d33a05e83e image that decide everything. Even if 23bf97a989 an actor’s 4b74519bf2 performance is 45c6da3d5d lacking, they 6be81e5315 get cast 3937202a24 if they dbc3a75971 fit the f225ac95da role’s image. The doctor looked like 233f32a135 he’d leave an impact 7306c3d66a as a significant villain 298d0f2cc5 in a superhero movie.63fb02a01663139c

The doctor’s coat seemed 04105ef0d8 too small for his 7d424eab87 muscular build, and he a27d4cc9b2 was as tall as 8ed968cf87 a power forward in 92f4be6c0f basketball. Yet, his skin was 3af019f1ea as pale as someone e69aff66c1 who’d been locked in 13114253b0 a mental hospital for b7c56efd78 a year. His hands 7be1c3ed9c were so a62fe55f46 large that e294ae65ea Si-ron doubted 351f4c68ec if delicate 27f21a6d4e surgery was f5defc381e possible. Even if he were e3cbfb2ed8 dying from kidney stones, 61c11989a6 he wouldn’t trust his d38bb21608 body to those hands.c9540cfa34f62301

The two 77b7ff7237 moved to 968eb0b723 a windowless 7b04dd2cbb room, sitting f78a294fe2 across a 8c00ce83fa narrow table. As the 5769bfcfec doctor prepared 3055ac2ca9 for the f5b1ef3b44 blood draw 6429c31859 and dosage, a776918c4c Si-ron extended 1ec5edbc5a his arm, 9e56b196a9 and the ea02fb0776 doctor measured b9e351ad19 his blood cf803b2937 pressure.8cb93035fac53229

Though it c8396005e2 seemed like d2c1ebeca8 he might d268af2e12 suffer from aad6924891 severe side d721a24aa6 effects, Si-ron’s ea60fd9b49 experience with e015b1e212 various clinical 810938054f trial part-time c607b5135e jobs taught 8b2323e7d7 him that 27c3178610 side effects db4b4f840e were rare, 738d19fc56 occurring in 936821e185 only a 6d7b7dc2b8 tiny fraction 14cbac5b0a of thousands cc89f3884c or tens 933f182c4f of thousands.
