Zaid Mirani

Zaid Mirani, a character in the Open Heart series, is a senior resident at Edenbrook Hospital. He makes his official appearance in Book 1, Chapter 3. He will make an appearance in Chapter 2, if you make out with Jackie or Bryce.

Appearance
Dr. Mirani has brown hair, brown eyes, a beard and tan skin. He wears a blue and white checkered button-down shirt under a white Edenbrook Hospital coat with a pen in the pocket.

His casual outfit consists of a gray polo shirt with a black collar and buttons.

Personality
He appears blunt and to-the-point, bordering on sarcastic. When compared to the other senior resident, Ines Delarosa, he is considered an "ass". He wants the interns to ask questions if they're unsure because he doesn't want them to kill their patients and then he'd have to answer to Dr. Harper Emery for it. He also appears to have a sarcastic sense of humor and deadpan expression unless he is surprised.

Your Character
You first encounter Dr. Mirani if you decide to kiss Bryce or Jackie in the supply closet on your first day as an intern. He interrupts the two of you, looking for a suture kit. If you do not kiss either of them, you are first introduced to Dr. Mirani the next day. You can either approach him or Ines to get your assignments for the day. If you choose him, he tells you that he is not your friend, and appears that he wants to maintain a professional if not mentor-intern relationship.

Ines Delarosa
He is often seen in the company of Ines Delarosa, his fellow senior resident. Because she has known him longer, it appears he respects her and allows her to drag him to bars and parties.

Teresa Martinez
In Chapter 12, it is revealed that Mrs Martinez pulled a prank on him some time in the past: she replaced the sugar for his coffee with salt. He attends the going-away party and seems sad about having to say goodbye when he says "I'll always cherish those times..."
