The doctor kept writing a few things on the sheets, not caring much as Daphne excused herself and left. She was not his priority and as soon as she signed the papers, she wasn't necessary anymore. He raised his head only when Victor asked what she had, who was awake. He was not surprised of the question, people were curious by nature. Not thinking it was a confidential matter, he saw no problem into talking about the nurse's private life. "Her father is doing chemotherapy here at the hospital. He probably woke up after his treatment." he explained. His voice tone remained professional, without any feeling. Aaron Antonopoulos was a patient and nothing else to him after all.
He stood up as well and gave a small smile to the man before him. "You can go whenever you want. Someone might call you or come see you within the week, just to be sure." he added before leaving the room. Although he did not say it aloud, his case puzzled him. He wanted to learn more, see if he could help him out where other doctors couldn't. A selfish reason perhaps, but at least his selfishness wanted to help someone out. He asked for his files at the reception desk to know more about the tests he passed before going to other patients. He could wait for it and Victor was not the only one here in need of a doctor.
During that time, Daphne was talking to her father, although the conversation was rather hard. He was weak, still sleepy. A moment after he went back to sleep, she decided to leave. It was no use to watch him sleep, especially while she was supposed to work. But her mind was not at work for now, to a point she went to the resting room, trying to sleep a little or at least put herself together and do her job. But none of this happened and in the end, her co-workers suggested that she just went home. She was useless in that state, worse she could hurt someone. She couldn't do much but agree with them and went to her locker to pick up her things. She did not change clothes. She thought about taking a shower once at home and change there, and relax.
As she was about to leave, she saw a friend of hers almost swearing. Asking her what was wrong, she explained she could not find a file one of the doctor was looking for. When she heard the name Victor Nikolai, Daphne was immediately surprised and curious. It was the young man she believed to have passed drunk and left a couple of minutes ago. She helped her out but they indeed couldn't find anything. Daphne suggested he passed the tests at another hospital and his file didn't follow him. He wasn't a baby, there were chances he moved here recently. Daphne wasn't certain whether he left the hospital already or not and thought about going to his room and ask where he passed the tests. As she made her way, she was asked to come for help in someone else's room. She could not simply say she was leaving, she left her things in the archives anyway, she looked just like a nurse ready to be of assistance. Sighing, she helped out, but the person was doing an hemorrhage and she soon was running in the halls to an operation room so they could find out where it came from, stop it and drain all the blood. Now she knew he'd be gone before she could even see him, that was not a small operation of two minutes. She supposed someone else would come and see if he was there, or call at his house if he was not, and ask if he could answer a few questions.
