Dr. Oshiro

The quiet rustle of papers being moved was the only thing that broke the silence at all as Masahiro sat alone at his desk. A stack of papers and folders sat to his right and another, smaller stack to his left while in the middle were only a few papers, which he was carefully reading over. After thoroughly examining the papers, he signed each one and sat them on the stack to his left. Sitting back and letting his body relax, he gently picked up his cup and took a sip of the warm green tea, which wasn't so warm anymore. Still, he enjoyed his tea even after it had lost its warmth. He swallowed the last of his tea, stood up, made his way out of the office and headed for the kitchen in his living unit to brew another cup of tea.

There was no one else around at this time, it was after curfew and while there were a few doctors and nurses on duty overnight in the hospital, Masahiro was the only one in the office area. He rather enjoyed the quiet that came with curfew each night, it was peaceful in a way. That having been said, he also enjoyed the busy atmosphere each day brought. He rather like both day and night, each for its own qualities. At night he could enjoy his tea and get his paperwork done undisturbed, during the day there was always something going on, a patient to help, people hurrying here or there, and plenty of people to observe and learn about or learn from.

Returning to his desk, Masahiro sat down, placing his fresh cup of tea to the side, but still within reach, and took a folder from the stack to his right. Opening the folder, he began reading its contents, only pausing to take the occasional sip from his cup.
