    Summary

    Nicky is a rational man.

    He makes decisions slowly, with pro-con lists and peace and quiet.

    This does not account for the fact that, having run into the bane of his existence, Dr. Al-Kaysani the trauma surgeon, at his favorite bar on the tail end of a shift that ran five hours too long, Nicky ended up inviting him over for coffee and blowing him against the closed door of his apartment.

    Summary

    “Don’t worry, it’s fine.” Nile said, the stab of guilt at ruining the night coming a little harder. Joe had been so excited when he saw the bunk beds, grinning widely as Nicky said don’t let me fall off this time.

    Nicky nodded but made no motion to stand up, to return to his husband’s arms. Instead he said, “I’m awake now. Do you want to go for a drive?”

    “A drive?” She looked at her watch, it wasn’t anywhere close to morning. Although the idea of getting out of their windowless room is an attractive one, she can’t deny it, “Are you sure?”

     

    In which: Nile is having trouble sleeping, and Nicky likes to drive.

    Summary

    Yusuf al-Kaysani, M.D., Ph.D., F.A.C.S., attending physician and head cardiothoracic surgeon of New York City’s Vanguard Medical Center, also known as Doctor Joe, was a man of precision, dedication, and careful intent. Which makes the entire incident of his discovering Doctor DiGenova’s heart condition by accident all the more baffling.

    Summary

    And last but not least: Prof. al-Kaysani got married last week! And while he has explicitly asked for no fuss to be made, we have organised a small gift and a card that you are all welcome to sign. It will be on my desk until September 7th.

    Best,

    Dr. Quynh Pham
    Course Leader BA (Hons) Curating

    --

    Nile’s eyes are stuck on the word ‘married’. Her mouth drops open, toast falling into her lap without her noticing.

    Married. 

    “The fuck?”
