Remember the unexplainable, tingly feeling I was talking about last night? Well tonight I got it again.
This time, it was much more evident in a sense that the girl I was training, Aimee, noticed a change in my mood when Dr. G came to the floor. We were busy all day. I was getting very impatient coz I had no time whatsoever to sneak some studying for my exams. As I was getting really cranky, I hear his voice. All of a sudden, a smile clung to my face like lint on cloth. I couldn't get it off. I felt silly but I didn't mind. A smile is the best accessory for looking pretty, I thought. So I just kept on smiling.
Hold on, now I'm trying to look pretty at work, in a hospital? How so very bizarre!
Anyway, when Dr. G. was on the floor, all the nurses seemed to be attending to their patients. We started conversing casually. He was writing some things while talking so I tried desperately to look a bit preoccupied as well. Just for kicks, I asked him if he watches Sex & the City. He knew right away what I was getting at and said "Oh is this about Mr. Big?" Apparently when he was in Manhattan weeks ago, someone commented on how he looks like Mr. Big. Our conversation after that went as follows:
HIM: "So, I remind you of Mr. Big huh? I don't really watch that show, but I will now just because I want to see this guy. I swear if he doesn't look good, I'll go after you!"
ME: "Oh don't worry, he's hot!"
(Ok. So it was one of those times when I didn't realize what I said until after I said it.)
HIM: "Oh, really?" He sounded intrigued. "You're classes are mostly in College Ave. Campus, right? Maybe I should hang out there more often, so I could run into you 'accidentally'."
I laugh.
HIM: "Oh my, imagine Gabby if you were just a couple of years older? What could have been, huh? What could have been! Wait, aren't you graduating in a year?"
I just laughed some more, saying "Right, right!"
I didn't know how to react to what Dr. G. just said. He was flirting with me! I don't even know what to think, or if I should even think of it as anything at all. All I know is that the unexplainable, tingly feeling I'm left with after the last two encounters with him feels damn nice.
As for my remaining time at work, it sure went by as fast as a bullet. I was in a daze. Also, the smile on my face was still there long after he had left.
