That Doctor Is Mine

His forehead furrowed. Her dad’s face didn’t look curious. Looks like someone just wants to confirm. He nodded.

“Yes. Why, Pa?”

Her dad was silent for a few seconds before he opened his mouth but he didn’t finish what he was supposed to say.

“You’re an only child, Celestine. I just want what’s best for you …”

“Pa?” he wondered

Nawe-weirduhan na kasi siya. Her fathet dismissed it instead of answering her. So he became even more curious. It’s not good when he feels like this because he’s in trouble again.

“Tomorrow we’ll talk after work. It’s important. For now, go home first and rest. It’s your first day of work afterall.”

“But …”

He was blown away by the wind then just nodded and left the office. Stephen saw him.

“What happened? Did you get scolded?”

He shook his head.

“Tired? Come on. Let’s eat fishballs first. I’m free. At the chin, they’re selling.”

Suddenly he felt alive from what he heard. He immediately grabbed Stephen’s arm and pulled him into the elevator.

“That’s what I want from you.”

After they ate. Stephen took him to a nearby boat first. He is close to home. Just a ride because Stephen delivered him. Maybe the young man will be trafficked if he is taken home. He is very special.

His forehead furrowed as he noticed the familiar car that Alexendris always used. Her eyes widened.

He’s here!?

He turned the lock. That’s tomorrow. He opened the door wide and then flicked the light switch. Her eyes widened as someone grabbed her arm.

He pinned her on the closed door. The palm of his hand covered his mouth that he did not know why. She was devastated to feel the young man’s body pressing against hers.

He’s so close that she felt his breath in her ear.

“How dare you …. laugh like that with another man?” He murmured

Before he cupped her chin, kissing her aggressively.

HE’S TIRED and just wanted to rest but his plan to rest didn’t work out when his dad called him.

“What is it?” he asked with boredom

He lowered the suitcase then walked inside the mansion. Her father spoke. He stopped.

“Celestine Villanueva … I said be careful son …”

Her mouths cried. The fatigue in his body disappeared and was replaced by anger. He dropped his luggage.

“What are you saying ?!”

“You don’t have to worry. You aren’t dating with her, right? ….”

His fist turned into ball. By keeping her from going crazy. He see this coming. What’s the use of his irritation?

“I call to remind you that once you stake a claim with that woman. Our deal is off …”

“Are you that desperate to have another Liara?” He mocked. “Isn’t my mother not enough?”

For a few seconds her dad didn’t speak on the other line. He’s like that whenever he opens up the past.

Whenever he talks about his mother who killed herself because of his very own father.

“Give Liara peace, Alexendris …”

“The gut of you. You are the reason why she’s dead. If you haven’t impregnate her! She would’ve been alive! Happy and breathing!” he shouted on the other line

He’s livid. Always. If her mother is the one to talk about. No way he would calm down!

“You watched her die every fucking day watching you with your wives! Your whores! You can’t even give her break. You are the reason why my mother’s dead and now you want Celestine to suffer the same thing? Fuck you!” He spat angrily

“I love your mom … and letting her go isn’t easy as said. You’ll understand it too when she started forgetting you …”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

The call ended.

He tightened his grip on the cellphone when the person he was talking to disappeared from the line. He released a deep breath before going back to his car. Alexendris needs to calm down.

He manevouered his car out the mansion towards no where and stop in the middle of the rain. He got out of the car even though it was raining so hard.

Nothing could be heard around except heavy rain hitting the ground and strong winds. He crouched.

“I’d rather leave dying with a broken heart than seeing her die the same way you do.”

Mom …

He could hardly breathe when Alexendris broke the kiss. He could not see the front because it was dark inside the house but he could feel its breathing. Deep.

“A-Alexendris?”

“Remember when I got drunk. I meant what I said. I really hate you.” its whisper

He was stunned. He remembered that day. So he was surprised to run away because of that. Her eyes narrowed.

“I thought you didn’t remember ?!” his accusatory promise
