BIRTHDAY GIFT

SIMON POV 4

I just wrapped up my surgery which I had for eight hours. I exist for those who believe in me and close their eyes during surgery and my father. Now I feel like I exist even for that girl.

"She is not leaving my mind".

I plopped down on my sofa which is more relaxed after completing the surgery.

"What did I do to receive this kind of charge? She is disturbing me and making me not able to focus" I covered my eyes with my forearms.

"Hey!!! Man!!!" A loud tone reaches my ear. I know this voice, "Hey man! Welcome back" I raised myself from the couch. We clasped our hands and hugged each other."Why are you intensifying your workload day by day. Give yourself some rest" Duke said dabbing my back.

"I think you should get a girlfriend to take care of you," he said laying his head on the couch. This only reminded me of Sephora.

"I don't think I need a girlfriend" I mumbled turning my face toward him.

"Then what do you want?" he frowned raising his head from the couch.

"I want Sephora to be my girl, which means my wife," I said, dropping his jaw to the floor he was not able to speak after my confession.

"You mean SEPHORA the girl you loved for years" he jumped from the couch.

"Yes, the same girl. Come sit" I pulled him to the couch to sit.

"Man did you see her?" he asked me with his foot jumping in the air.

"CALM DOWN MAN," I said halting his leg from shaking.

"Her brother is admitted to hospital".

"Why Simon?" Duke asked me, caressing my shoulder.

"Seizures" I mumbled looking at the ceiling.

"What is the cause?" "Nothing. Just due to irregular medicine intake, dehydration, and over stimulus to the brain due to video games" saying I let out a big breath.

"If this is the cause, it's not a serious case. We should just stop him from getting overstimulated" he explained.

"I know it's not a serious cause" I uttered.

"Then what's bothering you?" he questioned me for each reply I gave. I can't blame him for that."It's her. She blames herself for this. I can simply see through her eyes, all the gates she locked and all the borders she raised around her".

"What are you planning to do?" he again questioned.

I just nod my head at loss, because I don't know how to make her open up. The clock on my wall strikes twelve. A smile crept onto my face. The day my angel was born. Should I call her because she wouldn't have slept in this state

"I'm afraid of you now. Just before seconds, you were sad and now you are smiling. Did you become a maniac" he sounded like an idiot. Of course, he is. "It's her 20th birthday Duke" I more like cried out.

"Perfect time man! Go and kneel before her with a ring" he just blurted out casually not knowing about her.

"Do you think she is in the state to accept me" I glared at him.

"Does not girl lean on easily when they are broken?" he asked tilting his head to one side and thinking the answer to himself.

"Not every girl is like that Duke! Some don't even say what they are going through to their best person" I answered his questions.

"Whatever? As I asked. What's your plan?" this man asks again question. His brain is more than what anyone thinks. He always bombards with questions after and after. I'm tired of these questions.
