The surgical nurses were right. Theo Buchanan was gorgeous.. and sexy as hell. But none of that should matter. She was his physician, nothing more, nothing less.. His hair was sticking up and he needed a shave, but he was still sexy. There wasn't anything wrong with her noticing that.. unless, of course, he noticed her noticing.
The surgical nurses couldn't help but comment on Theo Buchanan's striking looks, describing him as both attractive and undeniably alluring. Despite her recognition of his physical appeal, the narrator insists that their relationship is strictly professional, as he is her patient and she is his physician. This internal conflict reflects the tension between personal feelings and professional boundaries.
Even though Theo's disheveled appearance, with his unkempt hair and need for a shave, adds to his charm, the narrator is mindful of her role. She is aware that acknowledging his attractiveness could be inappropriate, especially if he becomes aware of her thoughts. This highlights the challenge of maintaining professionalism while grappling with inevitable attraction.
