doctor & their nurses

i've never seen a happier nurse.

i was at SATA for my employment check up.
the place is neat, systematic, efficient.

step ONE

"take off your shirt and bra" said the male nurse.
he is a philippino. courteous and tan.

i obliged.

"are you pregnant? no?"

"emmm.. i dont think so,, no"

then he took a picture of me, braless.
of course lah, he's taking an X-tray of my chest.

step TWO

"are you having your mensus?"

"no? ok go toilet and give me your urine.
not the first part, just throw away the first part.
too concentrated"

me: ???

step THREE

"squeeze this, i need your blood"

2 tubes.

my precious blood was DARK. dark like
my favourite nail polish. i miss that
vampish colour.

step FOUR
this young, cutie big eyed malay nurse
was prancing around.

you know,,, perky butt, walking on toes,

skipping lightly

holding files tightly to her chest.

she emerged from the doc's office like
she has just got a dream date with her man.

it's 10 in the morning and she is already
so happy. i think she'll last the whole
month.

"beep**' #117 to room 4.

"good morning doc" i said.

oh, he is very fair for a malay / indian
(i cant remember which)

spoke gently but firm. an air of success.

"everything's ok with you?" he asked
while pressing on my tyres (tummy tyres).
pressing, not pinching ok! im not on
pinch-fat-test.

"yap" i said.

"ok. you can go"

"bye" i said, smiling to him and his
prancing young nurse.

they were too busy to take another look
at me.....
