That Doctor Is Mine

“Why are you still standing? Let’s go.” said the young man impatiently combing with his comb

He stared at it. “Can you give me space first? Why do you always stick to me, huh ?!” he broke his promise

“Don’t you have a job and you’re messing with my life? How can I enjoy it there? Ha? You’re probably just going to make me letchugas!” he added nervously

“I’m not.” He looked at her. “You’re overreacting. Aside from cooking, I didn’t ask anyone else to do anything.”

“You’re still defending me! The one you fired me from my job? What’s that ?!”

“Because I want you to cook.” he said simply

Celestine released a harsh breath. He carried his bag. She will take care of her suitcase. It’s too late for him to carry!

Kaasar talaga tong lalaking to!

How did this man find her? Like how it found her house. He went down first. She reached her mother in the living room.

“We’re leaving, ma. Papa and you be careful here.” paalala nya

“Sure. Alexendris?” its question

“Agreed. Nakakabwisit padin.” she whispered

“What ?!” her mother asked in a frown

“I’m here tita.”

She snorted. Thick face! Nakiki-tita!

“Be careful. Don’t leave my son alone. It’ll be weird sometimes.” aniya mama

“Ma naman!” her complaint

“I’m just leaving you, Celestine! I know you. You’re too gossipy! So you’re doomed sometimes.” sermon of his mother

It’s true because otherwise. He will not recognize Alexendris. I wish he had a peaceful life.

“We’re leaving.”

He left the house first. He went straight into the car and just threw the bag in the backseat. He turned to the window.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

She saw him. The letchugas were already shades as the suitcase was being towed. Looks like a runway model on vacation.

“I hope you fall, tss.”

She averted her eyes when the young man entered. He started the engine.

“Put your things in the trunk.” command it

“I really don’t want to! That’s okay. It’s boring to go out.” he answered bored

The young man’s eyes deepened. As usual, he was annoyed again because his patience was short.

“Celestine! Put it in the trunk!” its strong command

“Edi put you down.”

He turned his back on it. He hugged her legs then leaned himself on the chair. She is facing the window.

It’s up to you. Talk to yourself!

“Goddamn it woman! When will you stop pissing me off?” He hissed

It also did nothing so the vehicle was also driven away. He hugged her legs more and closed his eyes. She wonders how to escape the man.

“Why are you sulking there? You’re supposed to be happy. I am a busy man and I have a lot of things to do but I choose you.” sound of a complaint he promised to recover

He glanced at it with sharp eyes. “Why did I tell you to choose me? What do you want? I’m thrilled because you came with me?”

He noticed the tightening of its grip on the steering wheel. His eyes remained blank though.

“Why don’t you just thank me?”

“I’m not so grateful when I’m with you. You’re so bossy that you’re so naughty! Maybe I don’t call it a vacation. It’s a vacation ‘you’!” hinaing nya

“I told you already. I won’t bother you. Why can’t you believe me?”

Her two eyebrows rose at his calm voice. First time! He never heard Alexendris speak calmly.

“Is my cooking that good and you calmed down?” he asked incredulously

Its forehead is furrowed. “What are you saying?”

He kept facing it. “Do you have a fever or are you done with menses? You’re not rude now but you’re annoying.”

He reached for the young man in the driver’s seat and rubbed his forehead and neck. She is not hot.

“What are you doing?” the man’s forehead furrowed even more. “Stop it.”

“I’ll just check if you have a fever.”

He pressed the back of his palm to her neck to feel but the young man grabbed her hand. He hold it tightly.

He was stunned. His eyes dropped to the palm of his hand that Alexendris was still holding. Her chest throbbed.

“A-my hand … a-mine ..”

He pulled his hand away but he just tightened his grip. Her eyes widened when he interwined their fingers.
