TWO DAYS of not having Avis around was not new to him, pero hindi pa rin siya mapakali at hindi makapag trabaho ng maayos. Caleb massage his nape, nang maramdaman niyang pati ang likuran ay nananakit na sa kakapirma ng mga papeles, kaka attend ng mga meeting at pag-aaral niya.
Tumayo siya at humiga sa hospital bed na nasa loob ng opisina niya. Then a flashback of Avis caressing him to fall asleep cross his mind. He missed her. That's the truth. Hindi na niya lolokohin pa ang sarili.
"Damn." He hissed.
He covered his eyes using his arm. Hindi din ito tumatawag sa kanya, the operation must be too important. He knew because Caliber was like that too, he won't bug him when he's having a major operation. Pero hindi pa rin nito nakakalimutan na magpadala ng nurse sa opisina niya para i check up siya.
He looks like a freaking patient after his work as a Doctor.
Caleb chose his own path. Kaya wala siyang karapatan na magreklamo, aside from him, being a Doctor, he was also practicing Pediatric surgeon. He just found himself doing it. What could be the reason? Wala sa sariling natawa si Caleb.
"Dang it? What the hell am I thinking? It's like not she'll be gone for another years." He murmured lazily.
Kung pwede niya lang din sapakin ang sarili gagawin na niya. When he asked Avis if she really need to go, gusto niya itong pigilan, gusto niyang sumama, but when he remembered how he begged that night and how he convinced Avis to let him go to her. She left.
He realized, that maybe, Avis had enough of him. Enough of his attitude. He was not aware but he's a manipulative son of a bitch. Just like how he manipulated Avis to be his sex partner, he knew Avis was still harboring feelings for him and he take advantage of it.
He seduced her.
"Damn man! You suck!" He groaned again and change his sleeping position.
"Yeah right, you suck. I mean who the hell will let a woman stay inside our secret haven and introduced her to us as a freaking friend? Do friends fuck? If yes, what will be the benefit?" Napabalikwas nang tayo si Caleb nang marinig ang boses ni Light.
His lips parted when he saw his friends. Ang iba ay nakaupo na sa sofa at ang iba naman ay nasa sahig na. Funny, they're all here.
"What the hell?" He exclaimed.
His friends smile cheekily and they all shrugged their shoulders. "Surprise Bud?" They all said in unison.
"We have a special liqour from Alistair's mini bar, don't mind his sour mood and drink this ti'll our hearts content." Jyrelle said and lift the liquor.
Tumaas ang kilay niya. "Excuse me, this is a freaking hospital. Not a damn bar!" Singhal niya sa mga kaibigan.
"Alam namin." Kade said.
Caleb massage the bridge of his nose. "Then, what the fuck?!" He hissed.
"Calm down! We're here to help you move on, ay wait may balak ka ba mag move on? Kasi sa lagay mo parang wala. Pero para makainom kami ng libre, ayos na 'yon na dahilan." Castiel said like it was the most amazing idea.
"Who says I'm moving on? Who says I'm fucking broken hearted?!" He asked them.
"Luh, galit na naman." Castiel pouted and hide behind Yves back.
"Chill. Uminom ka nalang, oops. Kakain ka pala muna." Nakangising tinuro ni Laur si Yves na hinahanda na ang pagkain niya.
Samantalang ang mga kaibigan niya nilabas na ang mga shot glasses at ang sisig na pulutan nila. They even have a desserts!
