-Stop wagging your tails like dogs at this doctor and get to work. You have a lot of things to do. I remind you that we are in an intensive care ward, not in a gossipy old lady's neighborhood.

The resources went to work, and I looked at Dr. Castelo for the last time with eyes that warned him not to mess with me, because he was going to regret it. I continued to make my notes on the files that corresponded to me. When it was time to leave, I grabbed my things and left, but the boss stopped me.

-You surprised me earlier, Lucia," he said smiling, "I never thought you had so much authority in you and so much character to make Castelo tremble. You always showed yourself to be an extremely sweet nurse.

-I had not needed to bring up that side, but today I had no choice. Dr. Castelo, along with the resources there who look like puppets of this so-called ICU manager, exasperated me.

-Well, at least I won't have to worry about you," he said. You have character, and Dr. Fernandez has your back.
