table near the side of the establishment, and tried to get into the mood of the place, but it didn’t work. She didn’t feel like dancing and turned down every offer she received. She felt lonely, but she didn’t want just anyone’s company. No, she wanted only Russell.
    Two of her friends joined her half an hour later, making eyes at the band members and generally cutting loose and having fun. When Allison didn’t join in as usual, they became suspicious. “What’s up with you tonight?”
    “Nothing,” she assured them.
    “That’s not true. Come on, talk to us.”
    She shook her head, putting a false smile upon her face. “There’s nothing wrong. I’m just tired tonight.” Her friends looked at her funny, and she knew they weren’t fooled by her fake smile.
    Allison was the kind of person who always wore her heart upon her sleeve, and everyone knew exactly how she was feeling – because she would tell them. Not this time. She didn’t feel like herself, and it had been getting worse all week long.
    The next song featured a slow romantic dance and she jumped up, fleeing homeward, hoping that she’d return to her normal cheerful self soon and forget about Russell even sooner.
     

Chapter 6
    Russell sighed as he grabbed the chart for his next patient and saw who it was. Mrs. Caldwell had been to see him several times, and he had a bad feeling that this time she was going to insist on having her breasts enlarged.
    She was a beautiful woman, but married to a very shallow man. So far, she’d had her nose done, her neck tightened, a tummy tuck, and a butt enlargement. Her husband was usually the instigator for her visits, always finding something on her that needed improvement, as if she was a piece of furniture. Since he had the resources, he had no conscience about the woman completely remaking her body to meet his particular likes.
    “Mrs. Caldwell, you’re looking lovely as always,” Russell told her as he entered the exam room.  “What can I help you with today?”
    “Jerald thinks my breasts are too small.”
    “Then Jerald should get his eyes checked. Your breasts are the perfect size for your body shape.”
    Mrs. Caldwell shook her head, pulling up her shirt to show him her bare breasts, “No, I think he’s right. Two cups sizes would be perfect. What’s your opinion?”
    “With all due respect, Mrs. Caldwell, this is a bad idea. If I make your breasts any bigger, they will look out of proportion to the rest of your body.” Russell was so used to looking at naked female body parts, his groin didn’t even stir at the sight of the naked, very pert breasts. Not like Allison’s breasts at all.
    He hated that thoughts of her kept creeping into his mind. Allison was perfect, even though by most women’s standard her body was far from flawless. He’d long since lost any appreciation for an impeccable female body. He saw them all day long. There was a time when he’d been like any other red-blooded male, wanting a woman with large boobs, tiny waist, and butt you could hold onto. But not anymore. He’d grown tired of plastic women.
    He wanted a natural woman who was comfortable in her own skin and didn’t need to look like a supermodel to feel content in her looks. Like Allison. She was a million times more beautiful than any of the perfect women he routinely operated on. 
    Allison and her happy smile had been on his mind the whole week. He attributed it to her, and the lust for life she exuded, that other things had been bothering him this week as well. He’d discovered he wasn’t happy with his life. Hadn’t been in a long time. And it was high time for a change.
    Russell had always wanted to be a doctor, and when his parents died in that awful accident, it had only deepened his desire to help others. Maybe save them from the grief and pain of loss he and his sister had suffered.
    He’d become a surgeon because that was where he thought he could do the most good. In his specialty, plastic
