**A few years ago**


    "You’re engaged?" a doctor said in surprise.


    "Why are you so shocked, Sara?" Amelia asked with augh.


    "You’ve never even mentioned your boyfriend before…" Sara replied with a confused face.


    "Yes. Well…we’ve been engaged since we were born to be urate. It’s just recently that we’re be really engaged," Amelia said, sounding amused.


    "Is it because of your father?" Sara asked, worriedly.


    "I guess. Since dad passed away things have been…messy. Mother wants me to marry as soon as possible…" Amelia said, sounding carefree.


    "Is that why you’re getting me to do all these tests on you? They’re worried you won’t be able to produce an heir or something?" Sara asked, quickly catching on.


    "Haha…precisely. Fertility tests by one of the most popr gynecologists should put everyone at ease, right?" Amelia replied.


    "I’ve been your friend for a long time, I know you’re just faking your excitement here, Amelia…" Sara said before sighing.


    "Oh…how did you figure that out? Well, I always knew that my family would marry me off to someone of their choice. Nothing much I can do about that so I might as well enjoy my freedom while itsts…" Amelia replied.


    "You’re one chatty patient…" Saramented.


    "It’s weird to be having this conversation when you’re looking in between my legs, huh?" Amelia asked with a small giggle.


    "We need to wrap this up soon. There’s an exhibition at the hospital today and I have to attend," Sara said, sounding very bored.


    "Any hot doctors around that I can hit on?" Amelia asked excitedly.


    Sara rolled her eyes. She couldn’t tell whether Amelia was serious or if she was just joking.


    "…Amelia…you’re about to get married…" Sara reminded her sternly.


    "Precisely! My days of freedom are numbered, you know?" Amelia eximed.


    Amelia smiled radiantly at her friend as her friend shook her head in disapproval. Although these two women hadplete opposite personalities, they had remained close friends over the years.


    "So…can Ie along?" Amelia asked excitedly.


    "It’s a public exhibition so I can’t stop you froming…" Sara mumbled.


    "Music to my ears," Amelia said.


    …


    After wrapping up Amelia’s case, the two women headed to the exhibition hall in the hospital. Amelia walked excitedly at Sara’s side.


    "Can you act normal please? You’re attracting a lot of attention…" Sara whispered to her friend.


    "I thought you would be used to it by now," Amelia said without a care.


    "Well…you haven’t been around for a while…" Sara replied as she tried to keep her eyes looking straight ahead.


    "That’s because you’re always so busy with work. Doctor life is so busy…" Amelia said with a pout.


    "Anyways…can’t you do something about yourself. Everyone is staring at you…" Sara hissed to her friend.


    "What am I supposed to do? Everyone always stare at me because I’m super pretty, you know? What about I wear a paper bag over my head the next time I’m here?" Amelia suggested teasingly.


    Sara just sighed as she turned to her friend and rolled her eyes. Amelia always attracted everyone’s attention wherever she went. She was right, everything about her was very attractive to look at. The way she dressed and the vibe she gave off didn’t help mask her presence at all.


    "Just ignore them. You’ll get used to it. Even I’ve gotten used to it," Amelia said with a carefree attitude.


    "I’m not like you…" Sara mumbled, sounding tired as she reached her hand up to adjust the sses on her face.


    Finally, the two arrived at the exhibition hall. There were more people there than usual and Sara began wondering why. She was task as one of the doctors working at the hospital to be at the exhibition to answer questions and help out in general. It was the end of her shift and she wanted to go home but she had to do what management had ordered her to. Working in a private hospital was tough work.


    "You want to look around? I can help exin…" Sara suggested to her friend.


    "Never mind that. Back to my question from before. Do you have any hot colleagues?" Amelia asked as her eyes scanned the crowd expertly.


    "Amelia…" Sara whispered following by another loud sigh.


    "Do you…or do you not?" Amelia demanded to know.


    "Sara!"


    A man’s voice range out loud and clear. Sara heard her name being called and so did Amelia. Both women turned towards the source of the sound. Amelia’s eyes widened at the sight of a very tall blond man in a doctor’s uniform walking towards them through the crowd.


    "Hot man alert…" Amelia whispered in awe.


    "You can’t be serious…" Sara hissed in reply. Her eyes on her colleague as he walked closer and closer to them.


    "His existence has made my fertility tests worthwhile…" Amelia whispered before she smiled in satisfaction.


    "No…wait…" Sara mumbled.


    "You better introduce us. Smile now…" Amelia hissed as she reached a hand behind her to squeeze Sara’s wrist.


    The tall and very attractive man had arrived in front of the two women and Sara was having a hard time forming her words.


    "Sara, I’ve been looking for you. Some managers from the other branch are here and we need your help over there…" the man began talking.


    "Umm…this is my friend, Amelia," Sara said when she finally got a hold of herself.


    "Hi. I’m Amelia, Sara’s best friend. It’s a pleasure to meet you…and thank you for supporting Sara. Umm…and you are?" Amelia said before shing him her most charming smile.


    "Nice to meet you. I’m Hayden," the man replied politely.


    "Sara, it’s time for you to head over there to help out now. You wouldn’t want the managers to wait for too long, right?" Amelia said kindly as she turned to her friend.


    "Oh yeah…that…right. I’ll be going…bye…" Sara said hastily as she excused herself.


    "She’s so cute, isn’t she?" Amelia said as the two of them watch Sara weave her way through the crowd.


    "She’s a wonderful person but I’m sure that you already know that. It was nice meeting you. Have a good day," Hayden said as he began excusing himself.


    "Would you be free for dinner?" Amelia asked in a sweet voice.


    "Sorry but I’m busy today," Hayden replied, trying to sound polite and formal.
