It was seven of the clock in the morning when I woke up. I quickly stood up from lying on the bed and ignored the nakedness of the body. I picked up the clothes scattered on the floor, from my underwear to my navy long-sleeve shirt and ripped jeans.

I did not think we would make it through seven rounds until dawn. If people are sleeping well and resting, we are constantly spoiling ourselves. But things did not go as well as I thought they would. There was a problem, but luckily I was able to find a way out.

"You didn't tell me that you are a virgin," I whispered softly while looking at the woman.

She was still sleeping soundly while hugging the blanket that was covering her naked body. I didn't need to ask if she was tired because I could clearly see it on her face. Her innocent, rounded, cute face says it all.

"How could I be reckless? I was too carried away by my libido. Fuck! I swallowed my own words," I said to myself in disgust while getting dressed.

Yes, I won't deny it. I slept with a lot of hot babes. Too many to count. Almost all of them are flirty and love playing with me in bed. But things were different last night. I really screwed things up. I can already tell that this girl is a conservative type, but I still go with my plan.

"You are a living shit, Raphael. How could you not be gentle and fuck a goddamn virgin girl?"

I have been cursing myself for a while now, but no matter what I do, I can not take everything back. Also, it is seven. Maybe I made her happy too, which is why we get along so well, but mother fucker! I've never fucked a virgin in my whole life. This is the first time.

"Just calm down, Rap. Simply triple the amount of money you will be giving her. Yes, that does sound better. That's what I'll do," I convinced myself.

I finally got it fixed, so I pulled out my wallet to get the money. But what the hell! I do not have enough cash. I only have ten thousand pesos, and I know that is not enough. Shit! I can't stay here for long because I have a meeting at ten o'clock in the morning.

"Fuck! Think, Rap, think."

I don't know what to do. I'm also in a hurry because I'm not used to being caught awake by the woman I married. This is far from what my principles are. Because after the night, I untie any relationship with the girl. Just a pure one-night stand.

"Just be it. It is what it is. After all, it is my fault, so I should have to deal with the consequences. Be considerate, Raphael. You took her virginity," I convinced myself again.

I put the business card and money on the side of the woman. I wrote on the back of the note card. I know it is not enough, so she can ask for more money at the office. This is the only solution I can see because I'm out of cash. I hope it works.

"It really was a great night. "Bye," I said softly as I looked at her, then turned and left.

When I was going down the stairs, I ran into Bianca, who, if I am not mistaken, works with the girl. She even asked me how the presidential suite was.

I just nodded a little before answering. "You've got yourself a regular."

I answered her in a casual, unenthusiastic way. I saw her smile, and I could tell she was about to say something, but I did not wait for it. I hurriedly left the building and went to where my car was parked.

After taking a bath in my condo, which is close to the bar, I drove straight to Custodio Hospital. It did not take long for me to get here. Yes, I am more than just a member of the board of directors. I am also a licensed Pathologist. But I rarely come here because my attention is more focused on the business world.

"There you are, Dr. Custodio. It is great to see you again. Room 306 has a patient, but no doctor has come yet. I am glad I found you here. Would you mind if I showed you his medical records?" An intern greeted me as soon as I walked into the lobby.

I kept walking, and he kept following. He says a lot more things, but I do not care about them. But to hell with his problem. I could not stop myself any longer and turned around to face him. He needs to stop doing this; it is annoying.

"What the fuck is this? Didn't I make myself clear before that I wouldn't entertain any patients? I came to this hospital as part of the board of directors and not as a doctor. So please, don't follow me."

They already know how irritable and heartless I am in this hospital. I have no compassion for anyone. This is what I show in the business world as well. Showing feelings is a sign of weakness. Except for the bed, which is a totally different story.

"But sir, please consid-"

"You idiot!" I yelled out in anger.

My voice resounded across the floor, and people walking by, both patients and staff, looked at me. I could see that this intern was shocked and clearly scared of me. He suddenly started sweating, and he almost dropped the folder he was holding.

"S-Sorry, sir," he said shyly, asking for forgiveness before running away quickly.

I gave the staff a dirty look, so they went back to what they were doing quickly. The meeting was about to start in a few minutes, so I went into the elevator. I just can not afford to be late. People who are always late are the worst.

"You are ten minutes early, Dr. Custodio. You are always so early," one of the board members said as soon as I walked into the meeting room.

I ignored her and kept walking until I reached the chair. I opened my eyes for a moment and saw that there were only four of us inside. Three more people, and we can start the meeting.

"Where is everyone else?" I asked them seriously, but they just shook their heads.

"Just take a deep breath, Dr. You were early, so they were not late. Breathe in deeply. It is too early for you to get mad. One fight is enough. You just shouted at an intern. Relax, Okay?" Dr. Mendez, the head of Neurosurgeons, is calming me down.

I just nodded. "I really think news has wings," I said offhand as I read the meeting's agenda.

"Of course! Do you know that you are the talk of the town right away? The tiger of the hospital is said to have returned. Some of the nurses are going crazy and want you to scream at them. They say you are hot because you scolded the intern earlier," he said with a laugh. by Dr. Mendez.

"Tsk."

She did not say anything else. Dr. Mendez went back to looking at her phone. That is why she knew right away, even though she was inside the meeting room. Someone took a video of me, so I got a lot of attention again at the hospital.

"Here you are, Raphael! You have not changed at all. Nicholas greeted me as he walked by my seat by saying, "You are still a fucker."

He is the head of cardiology and a good friend of mine. I went on pranks with him when I was in college and even when I was in medical school, since we were the only ones who went to the same school. We are both jerks. It is impossible to count how many women we have gotten tired of and tasted. You can not judge us, though. We are both single and just want to hook up.

Of course. Even though I am not a human, I still need backgrounds so no one will suspect me. That is what makes mimicking work.

"Fuck you," I replied sparingly, which caused him to laugh even more.

"You are horrible, Rap. Do you know that the intern is still shaking with fear because he might lose his job? You scared the kid too much," Nicholas added.

I could care less about how that intern feels. I made it clear to him that I was not a doctor today. But he still did not give up, so I am not to blame for that. I warned him, but he did not take me seriously.

"You know I don't like stupid."

He just laughed when I replied. He already knew what I was going to say, so he stopped talking. The two people we were waiting for also showed up, so I did not waste any time and got the meeting started.

"That is a brilliant idea, Dr. Custodio. I think that is something we all agree on. You are a real asset here at the hospital. Let us give him a round of applause," the head of Anesthesiology, Dr. Cruz, said with a smile.

They immediately cheered and smiled sweetly at me. I had to force myself to smile in front of them. I am in charge of the hospital, so I have to be nice to the heads of each department.

"Raphael, why do not you just stay here? Your late father cared a lot about this hospital. This should be the only thing you think about. When you get here, it will be a bigger hospital," Dr. Mendez said.

I quickly looked at her and gave her a smile. "I am sorry, Cathy. But there are more things I need to do in our family business. If it were not for my dad, I would not be going to the hospital anymore."

"Dr. Custodio, you are a multi-billionaire. Even if you stop working, you will still make money. Just stay with us," Dr. Cruz added.

I know why they want me to stay here in this hospital. They can't run this without me. Simply because they do not know anything. They are weak in strategy and lack courage. So, I need to look at the hospital.

"I will think about what you said, but for now, our meeting is over. You can go finish your errands."

They got up and walked out of the room. I ran up to Nicholas quickly, before he could get away. There is something for us to talk about. It can not go on much longer.

"Niko, hold on. We need to talk. Come with me. Let's go to the rooftop," I said, which surprised him, but after a few moments, he immediately grinned and followed me.

When we got to the top, that was the only time he spoke. "What is going on, Rap? Did you miss me? Are we going to a chilling session?" he asked me.

I did not answer at first, but instead took a cigarette out of my pocket and lit it with a lighter. I also gave it to him, and he immediately took it and lit it as well.

"It looks like we are going to have a serious talk about this. Go ahead, tell what happened. I'll listen."

I smoked a cigarette and then sighed deeply. I am sure that I will not be able to sleep after this. I wanted someone to talk to, and Nicholas was that person. He will not be my judge. We know each other's little dirty secrets.

"I am bothered, Niko."

He immediately frowned. "About what?"

"I took a girl's virginity. I am such a jerk," I said to him, annoyed, as I looked at the clouds and tried to calm down.
