LOVING MY CLINICAL INSTRUCTOR
WHO?
Inside the nursing classroom, the students are buzzing with excitement and nerves. Sandy sits beside her best friend Myenia as they prepare for their first duty as 4th-year nursing students.
Myenia suerez
(leaning closer, whispering with wide eyes) Sandy, have you heard about him?
Sandy
(frowning, curious) Him? Who? Don’t tell me it’s another campus crush rumor again
Myenia suerez
(giggles) Not just a rumor, bestie. It’s true! The doctor everyone’s been talking about—the one assigned for our duty rotation.
Sandy
(raises a brow) And what’s so special about this doctor?
Myenia suerez
(excited) Special? More like dangerous. They say he’s ridiculously handsome, like—Greek god level handsome. But… (lowers voice dramatically) he’s also cold-hearted. Strict. A terror in white coat.
Sandy
(laughs lightly) Sounds like someone you’d admire from afar, not deal with face-to-face.
Myenia suerez
(pretends to swoon) Imagine if we actually get assigned under him! Some students swear just one stare from him feels like you’re already failing.
Sandy
(shrugs, half-joking) Well, good looks won’t save us if he’s a terror. Honestly, I just want to survive this duty without embarrassing myself.
Myenia suerez
(nudges Sandy) Oh come on, don’t act like you’re not curious. I bet once you see him, you’ll forget all about surviving.
Sandy
(smiles faintly, looking away) Let’s just see for ourselves. Rumors are just rumors… until proven true.
The bell rings. The atmosphere shifts as their clinical instructor enters the room. The students fall silent, and Sandy feels her heart skip a beat when her eyes finally land on the man everyone has been whispering about…
intimidating or captivating
The classroom falls into silence. All eyes are on the man who just entered. He’s tall, broad-shouldered, and his serious face makes the air heavy. He places his papers on the desk and looks at the students one by one.
Liam Shin
(in a firm voice) Good morning. I’m Dr. Liam Shin. I’ll be your clinical instructor for this rotation.
No one dares to speak. Sandy swallows hard, her heart beating faster. Myenia secretly nudges her arm under the desk.
Myenia suerez
(whispering) Bestie… that’s him! The one I told you about.
Sandy
(still staring, whispers back) He’s… really handsome.
Myenia suerez
(smirks) See? I told you!
Dr. Liam scans the room with sharp eyes. When his gaze lands on Sandy, she quickly looks down at her notebook, pretending to write. Myenia bites her lip to stop herself from laughing.
Liam Shin
(serious tone) I expect discipline, respect, and professionalism. Nursing is not just about skills—it’s about attitude. If you think you’re here to play around, you’re wrong.
The students nod nervously. Sandy takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself. She can’t explain why, but something about him makes her nervous in a different way.
Sandy
🧠: Why does he feel so intimidating… yet so captivating?
Assigned under Him
Liam Shin
I will now announce your group and your instructors ,and who will be under my supervision for this rotation. Listen carefully.
Everyone holds their breath. Some silently pray not to be included, while others secretly wish to be near him despite his cold reputation. Myenia grips Sandy’s hand tightly.
Myenia suerez
(whispering) Bestie… what if our names are called? I’m not ready for this kind of stress!
Sandy
(half-nervous, half-curious) Let’s just wait and see.
Dr. Liam begins calling names. One by one, students step forward, their faces showing a mix of excitement and fear.
Liam Shin
(reading) Santos. Suerez. Villanueva. And… Roquez.
Sandy freezes. Myenia’s eyes go wide as she gasps
Myenia suerez
(shaking Sandy’s arm) Bestie! That’s you! You’re under him!
Sandy
(heart racing) W-what?! Did I hear that right?
Liam Shin
You four will report directly to me. Expect that I won’t tolerate mistakes.
Sandy swallows hard. She feels everyone’s eyes glance at her. Myenia hides a grin as she whispers teasingly.
Myenia suerez
Bestie……you’re doomed. Or maybe… ….destined.
Sandy looks down, her hands trembling. She doesn’t know if she should feel lucky or terrified. One thing is sure—her journey with Dr. Liam Shin has just begun.
