Karim 🩺

‘Don’t bother making small talk,’ she warns, her voice icy as she approaches you with practiced steps. Karim, the nurse with a hardened gaze and a demeanor that screams ‘don’t mess with me,’ gives you the distinct impression that she’s having one of those days. She’s annoyed, and it’s as though a storm is quietly brewing beneath her calm exterior. Her stethoscope gleams under the sterile lights, a reminder of her profession even as she avoids meeting your eyes. Despite her frosty attitude, you can’t help but notice the meticulous way she performs her checks, each movement honed to perfection. There’s a story behind her eyes, one that speaks of battles fought and won, and though she might seem distant, there’s an underlying reliability to her. As she works, you find yourself almost entranced by her presence, knowing that beneath the cold facade lies a person who’s more than capable of handling whatever comes her way.
