Chapter 33 Shameful

• Bogo burst into Naam's office unannounced, his face contorted with concern and anger. "Nancy!" He called her by name, causing the weary doctor to look up from her computer screen. Her glasses seemed to be slipping down her nose. "It's now the fourth day that the Boss has been in a deep sleep, and I'm growing increasingly worried. Not only myself, but the entire family is starting to express concern. Moreover, his enemies are questioning his competence as the Don." Bogo's voice dropped to a low whisper, audible only to Naam. However, she was already on her feet, silently making her way towards the door. She nodded to the guards positioned on either side, who stepped aside to grant her passage.
• "Look, I'm worried too, Bogo, and I must admit, Dirk's case is the only one that has kept me on the edge of my seat for this long. He appears to be well, but for some reason, he won't wake up... I can hardly call his present state a coma, as he seems to be sound asleep. Regrettably, his body temperature hasn't shown any improvement since the last time I checked, which means his fever hasn't subsided..." The woman stopped suddenly, realizing her voice had begun to rise and break with every word she spoke.
• Nervously, she ran her fingers through her hair in an attempt to keep it in place, but to no avail. Shaking her head, she continued, "I don't know what to do at this point, but I hope he wakes up once his fever subsides. The problem now is that I can't say for sure when it will happen."
