Mr.Right

Jim said he owns a hospital in town. Is this the hospital?

But the hospital's name doesn't give away any information that it's his... Unless the 'M' and the 'W' are supposed to be initials for Maverick Wright.

Then what does the 'J' stand for?

The bimbo's eyes immediately dart in my direction. Blame it on me for having a loud coughing fit as a result of choking on my own saliva.

I flinch when the room door bursts open with the bimbo storming out and stopping in front of me.

It's obvious why Tony left me for her.

Her blonde hair is tied up in a loose bun. Although her eyes are much smaller than mine, they're sparkling blue and have this brightness to charm any guy off his boxers.

Including my boyfriend.

I mean, my ex-boyfriend.

"What are you doing here?" Her voice is cold and bitter. "Hasn't he suffered enough for you?"

"Excuse me?" I'm confused. What's she talking about?

"Don't play dumb. Tony is hospitalized because of you. He wouldn't stop drinking and smoking after that club night..."

"Wait, Tony smokes?"

"No. But he started right after you broke up with him. Then he lit up a cigarette yesterday and forgot to put it out. The fire started from his room," She pauses and takes a deep breath. "His housekeeper... The poor woman got locked in the kitchen by mistake and burnt to death before help came."

I can see the veins popping on her neck as she tries to hold back her anger and tears.

"She was a very nice Asian lady but, of course, you just had to come along and ruin it all!" She was screaming by this time but I didn't really mind.

Tony must have gotten a housekeeper to keep the house clean, since I'm not around any more...

he doesn't get very far before he stops in his tracks to face me. "It's 2097, by the way."
