His Forbidden Obsession

Chapter 33: Is it Normal for Sneaky Links to Give Gifts?

Martina Vlanca

"Well, someone looked like she had a good night." Tukso ni Dakota habang naglalakad kami patungo sa reception table kung nasaan ang resident na magsasabi kung sino ang Attending namin ngayon. Pwede naman sana na i-page na lang niya sa amin, but, no, they did not do that for whatever reason.

Le sigh.

It's a miracle that I woke up early after the activities that I've done with Kiel last night. It's also a miracle that I get to walk like he didn't just devirginized my åss.

"Oo nga, noh..n'yare sa'yo?" Sulpot ni Liv sa gilid ko at sandaling pinasadahan ng tingin sandali ang 'uncomfortable-looking' walk ko. Dakota subtly rolled her eyes at her.

I was gonna say that 'It's because our dear professor was balls deep in my åss last night,' but of course, I bit my tongue and forced a smile at Liv.

"Mind your own beeswax, Liv." Nanunuya kong sagot. Ngumising aso lamang siya bago nagpatiunang maglakad kasama ng ibang med student na kasalukuyang naglalakad sa aming harapan. Now that my whole batch is walking in the hallway, we somehow looked like a herd of sheeps---well, a herd of surgical-hungry med students.

And currently we're behind that herd since mabagal kaming naglalakad ni Dakota. Although, yes, I still get to walk but not comfortably since there is still that sting of pain on my backside.

"Chismosa talaga." Bulong ni Dakota sa akin na ikitawa ko nang mahina. I didn't entertain her question because of the exact reason. If I told Liv any small detail, she would twist my words like a pretzel and turn it into something else, and next thing you know kumalat na sa buong hospital na nakipag-threesome ako kagabi. Yeah, she can be that extreme.

I shook my head at that thought.

"Ganda ng stethoscope mo ah." Sabi ni Dakota at hinipo nang bahagya ang nakapalibot na black and gold na stethoscope sa leeg ko. Napangisi naman ako.

"Thanks. Regalo lang." Vague ko na sagot.

She cocked her arched eyebrow.

"Hmmm...who will give you a 3M litmann classic III stethoscope?"

Tumawa naman ako nang bahagya.

"Alam na alam talaga ang model ah."

"Duh, ganyan ang gamit mostly ng mga Attendings noh. And gorl, 'wag mong iwasan ang tanong." She widened her eyes at me for a moment.

Kala ko makakalusot na ako.

"Someone.." I vaguely replied again.

"Ah, someone.." Sinundan pa niya iyon nang tango. "Yung bang someone na 'yan ay 'yung kasama mo kagabi at ay 'yung nag-iiwan lagi ng food para sa'yo either sa on-call room bed or sa fridge?" Tanong niya habang nakataas pa rin ang kanyang kilay, her brown eyes are on me like a CCTV camera.

Shît, she is observant. Lumunok naman ako at naglayo ng tingin.

"Maybe."

She let out a sigh kaya naman napatingin ako sa kanya. She's now pouting.

"Come on, kahit kaunting details lang....and did you also know that people are tend to be more curious, the more you withhold information from them?"

I snorted.

"Gorl, are you pulling a psychology trick on me?" Naniningkit na mga matang tanong ko sa kanya.

She just hummed before she replied, "I mean, I'd be disappointed in my bachelor's degree in Pscychology if the trick didn't work."
