CHAPTER 21

a/n: A very happy Wednesday, everyone! Thank you for waiting and enjoy.

******

I'm tired. Like really tired-tired. I stretch my whole body just as the professor said the class has ended. While he cleaned up we are also doing the same. Returning the operating apparatus we used to cut into tissues and muscles of a cadaver.

Today's Lab work was really challenging as we are studying the muscles. How does it looks like if It has been strangled, suffocated or just choke with food, we are also looking for any sign of abrasion, And people, the human body has a llloooottt of muscles.

"I swear at some point while I was making an insertion into his neck, I felt him moved! Like really moved!" Kitty was being ridiculous again. Trying to scare us with this story about the dead.

"Stop drinking too much coffee and stop watching zombie movies, Ai Kitty! You're getting ridiculous as the day goes by". Pha, as always, reprimand him.

"You're not afraid, Beamie???" – he said

"Ai, Kitty, we've been doing this since the first day of 2nd year with cadavers and we've working with them since 1st year so I don't think I can still be spooked by your nonsense. – I told him to shut him up. Kitty just pouted.

"Let's hurry up and clean up. They are all waiting for us. My Yo might be dead due to hunger. I don't know where he put all the food he devours. He eats like a little dinosaur". Pha weaned but I can see a contented and happy expression in him.

"Let's go!" Kit happily agreed. I know because of Ming. but we really need to hurry because Forth is also waiting and if I point that out, I will never hear the end of it from them.

We exited our laboratory and I sent a quick text to Forth saying we've finished and will be out soon. He replied with I'm here waiting for you. I just smiled reading the 5-word text. 

When we arrived at our buildings' entrance lobby, Ming, Yo, Forth, with Park and Lam is busy talking with each other. They look comfortable and I smiled again in content.

Forth was the first to notice us arriving and gave a heart felt smile the moment our eyes made contact. I also reciprocated because, why not? I already admitted to myself that I had issue. Bite me!

I was lost in thought when I felt Kit intentionally bump into my shoulder. When I look over them, they both had a knowing half smile. Okay. I know I already admitted it to myself but I'm soo not ready admitting it to them.

"What's your problem, dude?" I asked with a raised eyebrow for emphasis.

"Just admit it Beam. It will make your life easier" - Kit

"You're talking nonsense Kitty. What do you mean?" Me playing innocent.

Kit looks at Pha with a -Is this idiot has really no clue or has he just been acting dumb?- look. Pha, used to Kits' antics just shake his head.

"Just let him be, Kitty. He'll come around soon" he simply replied from Kits' unspoken question. Kits simply said "Whatever" and we continued walking to the waiting group.

Kit and Pha directly go to their boyfriends while I to Forth and his friends.

"How was Lab?" my heart skips a bit then I heard him called me love and I was taken a back. You in deep shit, Beam! He means Laboratory-Lab not Love-Lab. Get a grip of yourself, will you?!

I sometimes wonder if who really is who since my inner self is always reprimanding me and has a sharp tongue at that.

"Tiring Forth, Really tiring. I just want to finish this week, have a restful weekend, and prepare for the next week's final exams and have a good vacation away from books, hospital apparatus and cadavers" – I whined.
