“What brings you to Heathrow Mr?” the woman asked with an Italian accent as she took a brief sip.

“Doctor Tim Ma’am.”the man continued to smile," And just for adventure. Saving the world. That kind of stuff." he finished with a satisfied sip of martini.

The woman laughed, not sure whether to take this man seriously. Dr. Tim leaned in close and whispered in her ear,
“And why would men in suits be pursuing a beatiful woman besides obvious reasons Ms?”

The woman doesn’t answer, horrified.

“Trust me. I’m a doctor.”
