That Doctor Is Mine

That asshole had some balls to talk and make you laugh, huh?

“Fucking asshole. I’ll break your bones if I ever see you with her in person.” He murmured

The intercom rang. Following Hera’s voice that she didn’t understand. He heard the sound of the door opening for a moment.

“Dris? Are you okay?” Hera asked in a soft voice. “I’ve noticed you’ve been very hot -headed lately. Do you have a problem?”

Yes! Fucking yes!

I am losing my mind, it’s my problem!

“Leave me alone, Hera. I can handle myself. I don’t need you.”

“I-maybe … I can help.” Hera’s weak promise that she still heard

“This is a problem that only me can solve. You may now go.”

He sway his chair towards the glass walls. It’s 5 PM. Just a few hours. The sun is going down.

She’s probably going home now.

“O-okay. Do you have anything else to fix?”

He did not answer immediately. Something was playing on his mind. He likes it and doesn’t like it as well. He closed his eyes for a moment.

“Dris?”

He opened his eyes. He stood up and grab his coat. He looked at Hera as she put on her coat.

“Send all important paperworks in my house. I’ll be gone in two days.”

“H-huh?”

He grabbed his phone. “I’ll do it in my home while I tame a stubborn.”

Alexendris said before walking passed her.

Her dad INSTRUCTED her that they would talk which she forgot the other day. She was on her way to her Dad’s office when she met Stephen.

“Dad? Is he still in the office?”

Stephen nodded. “Sir said. He’ll talk to you tomorrow. He went to something important a while ago. I’m sure he’ll go home straight away.”

He nodded. They are already in the same building but they are still not talking. Near the end of his training, they only met once.

“Isn’t the 300 added?”

He turned to Stephen as they both walked.

“It’s gone. That’s normal. When you demand only 250.”

Stephen’s shoulder slumped. That’s big enough and then another one, it’s not easy to convince her dad on the cellphone no.

“By the way. Did my advice work?” Stephen asked

She let out a deep breath. If that works. He”s probably not here right now. Alexendris is hard to tame. It was as if they were raising a wall two. Evidence.

“Unfortunately, no. So you’ll free me a fishball outside. What a waste of 300. It didn’t work.” he cried bitterly

“Maybe it’s because you’re not important-”

He glared at Stephen. “You’re not loved-”

“Of course. I know there’s a fishball nearby out there. Let’s buy it. I’m free.”

Stephen pulled her out until they reached the street foods stalls. Of course they are there as usual.

Two, peso. Fishball!

Stephen bought about 40 pesos. They are divided. For food, not for payment but he bought their winter cold.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Does Ericka also like fishball?”

He swallowed first before answering Stephen. “Even if you put more fish there. You won’t be ignored. Move on!”

“I was just asking and then I knew that. She has a boyfriend. She doesn’t know me. There’s really no hope.”

The person next to him bent down to eat a fishball so he patted its back. For as long as Stephen wanted Ericka. The one next to him is really very serious.

“You can do that. There are many more fishballs here. Let’s eat that.” He reached for the cooler. “Oh, cool down first.”

Reluctantly Stephen sucked on the cold still chewing.

“This is the reason why you asked for time, huh?”

Stephen almost choked them both when Alexendris suddenly appeared in front of them. Her eyes widened.

“W-what … Why are you here ?!”

“Why? Because you’re with someone else which is supposed to be me?”

The wind blew him away. The two of them will only see each other after a week after this bird fights right away.

“Yes!” his casual answer. “Because you’re disturbing our bonding. Aren’t you avoiding me? Why are you here?”

The young man’s jaw clenched. Her eyes were glaring but she was just casual. Unlike the one next to him who was frozen.

“Come on. Take me home. I want to rest.”
