abuseGood cliffhanger.
the only constructive criticism I can offer is that sometimes things seem a bit rushed. Just when I'm being pulled into a scene, I'm yanked out again. This could be your style, and it could certainly work, depending on the length of the story you're looking to write. If you want a longer story, perhaps you could sprinkle in a bit more character development. What you don't want to do is fill the story with too much "chitchat". Every time you write a chapter, ask yourself, "What's happening?"
This is a little trick I learned at a writer's conference. Something always needs to be happening; action moves the story. Thus far, something has always been happening, which is essential to a good plot.

abuseyes, you are correct. My best friend told me as much. Technically you're considered a doctor once you have your degree.
I'm off to read the next chapter now.

abuseI suck at guessings but I'll try. Hum, I'm sure she looks cute with her yellow dress. ♥ I'm wondering if you'll write more about Ray and Will story. It seems interesting! And God, i'm trying to find out why she's a doc now. Oh yeah, their night will be fun... for us, readers! *grin* Update soon!

abuseI think this chapter is by far the best thus far. I've enjoyed all of them, and the only real constructive criticism I can offer is that the others are perhaps just a bit too short. this one is a perfect length though. I'm very curious about what wil happen next.
Just as a side note (and I could be wrong about this), but usually when you finish med school, you have to do your residency at a hospital before you can go off on your own into private practice. I'm not really too sure how it works, but I have a best friend who's actually in med school, and that was how he explained it to me.
It doesn't really affect your plot; it's just a minor detail. (People correct me about stuff llike that all the time, so don't feel bad. Nine out of ten people won't even notice).

abuseNice story~ ♥ Yeah, Damien sounds really attractive... *O* and his eyes! I really like Alex too. She seems friendly and cool. I wonder why he did to her... Men are stupid, as usual! *laughs* But he doesn't want to give up. That's good! I want to read more. Update soon!

abuseFirstly, thanks so very much for your review. It means quite a lot to me. I'm certainly going to try to keep working on my story.
It's funny that you mentioned carving out some time each tday for writing; I actually do that, but I'm also teaching and working on my Masters thesis, which drains a lot of the creative juices from my brain, so there's not much left for my own writing. I try though.
Now, on to your story. I like this first chapter; it's intriguing. The first-person narration works increddibly well. I've really gotten into your narrator's head, even within this short chapter.
I'll try to read more soon.
