《DELIRIUM》5
Advertisement
I couldn't believe this was the day. It was Monday and my first day at St: Nicolai. My nerves were slowly torturing me and my hands were shaking and already dripping with sweat.
When my hair and makeup were ready I took a deep breath in front of my mirror. My curled blonde hair was perfectly brushed with every straw and my cheeks were blushing pink, contrasting my natural pale white skin.
I had to be settled for this, as my profession was not like others, it was important to be both physically and mentally stable to treat the patients at the hospital.
I left my house and got to my car to begin the drive to the hospital. I listened to the radio on the way to keep myself calm and sang along with the playing song - Dedicated to the one I love by The 5 royales.
I thought that I probably would meet with Donald or Margret when I arrived at the institution, which made me feel a little bit more comfortable since I met the two of them the last time I was there.
When I reached the institutional area, I parked my tiny black car on the lot for the personnel before I stepped out. The fresh wind of summer immediately hit my face when I stepped out of the vehicle. I placed a cigarette between my lips and lit it up to breathe in the toxic smoke as a last attempt to calm my mad nerves before I began to walk towards the entrance.
I reached the big locked gates and threw the cigarette on the ground and stubbed it out before I stepped inside the booth on the left side of the gate to use the telephone for someone to let me in.
I recognized the voice on the other side of the telephone line, Margret. Her sweet voice made me feel welcome.
After just a couple of seconds, the gate got unlocked and I immediately met with another familiar person, Donald.
A big smile covered my face. He was handsome in his blue, guardsman uniform. It made him look bad and masculine with the baton hanging by his hip in the broad black belt.
"Hello, Donald, nice to see you again," I said with a friendly voice the second we got eye contact.

"Ms. Frazier, very nice to see you too. And welcome to St: Nicolai"
"Thank you" My voice was excited when I answered his welcoming words. He made a gesture with his hand which told me to step inside the gate and I followed after his statement.
As we reached the big castle-like building he opened the door for me and I smiled at him once again.
"Good luck on your first day, guess I'll see you later," Donald's voice was flirty, and after Friday night's comment, it was obvious that his eyes were open for me already.
I blushed for myself when I thought about the drunk man telling my friend that he looked forward to seeing me pass by every day.
"Thanks again, Donald. See you"
I walked away from him and met with Margret in the reception instead. Her kind eyes behind the glasses met with my own and I smiled instantly at her sweet face.
"Congratulations, dear. And welcome," She said before she began to write on a paper that was laying in front of her.
"Thank you so much, miss?" I realized I only had heard Ms. Schwartz call her Margret right after the interview.
"Oh please, just call me Margret" She answered while she handed me the paper she had just written something on. I nodded my head at her and began to read the paper.
It was a contract regarding the security and safety of the hospital. There were instructions of the keys the employees got, telling me that the key was personal with a certain code. I knew there were very strict rules in the institutions about things like safety and secrecy.
I read through the whole paper before I signed it with my fribble signature. Margret gave me my key and the folder for my professional ID to always bring with me from now on. She also put a grey and white pile of clothes on the desk, which I understood was my uniform.
Now the only thing I could feel was excitement. I wasn't even nervous anymore.
"Take the door to the right, there you have the changing rooms. The other key on the chain is the one to your personal locker. Make sure it always stays locked. When you're changed and ready, you come out to here again and wait for Ms. Campbell, she will take care of you from here," Margret said while she pointed in the direction of the door she just mentioned. I nodded again at her instructions and I began to walk towards the door with the sign of 'staff only'.

For the first time, I used my key to unlock the door and I stepped inside a small hallway. It was dark because there were no windows, only a weak blaze of a whitw cold strip-light in the ceiling.
To the left, there was a door with a sign for the females and to the right, there was the one for the males. At the end of the hallway, there was a third door with the sign of laundry. It was nothing more particular than the bad amount of lightning.
I stepped inside the females' changing room and searched for my locker. The room was bigger than I thought, compared to the small hallway, and it had a lot more of a light.
I finally found the number of my locker and I began to change into my new nursing clothes. I looked in the mirror hanging on the wall and I smiled to myself as I put the hat on my head.
The grey dress was perfectly tight over the chest and ended just above my knees. The white apron let my skinny waist come forward which exposed my figure a lot more than with only the dress on.
The tiny nurse cap was much harder to get into place than I had thought but I managed to get it right after a couple of tries.
I was absolutely ready now.
I walked out of the doors again and the second Margret laid her eyes on me, she shined up in a smile. I looked at Donald who was standing in his broad-up position by the door and for my notice, he was already looking at me.
My smile got shy when I met his flirty gaze. He showed his white teeth through his smile and he carefully nodded his head at me as a way of telling me how good of a fit the uniform had on me.
"Ms. Beverly Frazier?" I heard someone say behind me. I turned around as I heard my name and I met with a beautiful, short-haired woman.
Her eyes were big and brown and her eyebrows were thick. Her hair was dark brown and her skin was pale white. Her features had the most perfect contrasts of the light skin and the dark hair and eyes.
I took the woman's hand and shook it while I answered her.
"Yes that's me, I'm Beverly. Nice to meet you!"
"Nice to meet you too, my name is Harriet Campbell. Welcome to St: Nicolai," The woman's voice was friendly and calm. If she was the one that was responsible for my introduction, I was not very worried.
"Thank you, Harriet," I said as I realized I had already been welcomed two other times this past twenty minutes.
"Come with me and I'll show you around. I will begin to give you a tour around the hospital and your ward area, then I'll begin to go through your schedule and how we shift, I will also go through your patients and their medical schedules and the routines. We have tomorrow for the introduction as well, so we have time to go through everything slowly. So if you have something to ask, just feel free to,"
I listened to Harriet's words while she began to walk away from the entrance and I followed after her with proud steps. She opened a door and we reached a small white painted space. Harriet pressed a button on the wall and a few seconds later an elevator rolled down and opened up the doors in front of us.
We stepped inside and she put her key in a hole to make the elevator move again. I understood right away that this was the way up to the actual hospital area.
"We have stairs as well of course, but this is the way we usually take when we start our shifts. The stairs are in the pharmacy area which will lead you to the opposite side of the dressing rooms,"
It was a big building that we were inside, and I realized that there were a lot of rooms and areas I had to learn to find my way around.
But first, I had to focus on the patients and their scheduling so that I could manage to do my job in the best, proper way.
