The Mafia's Captive : Reunion

P A T I E N T

     E D A

Days , weeks , i lost count of how long has it been since that night , it wasn't long , but every hour felt like a day , and every day felt like a year

I thought that once i go back to England and return to my daily routine which involved about waking up in the morning , having breakfast with Melody , wait for Cassy to come from her personal apartment so she could stay with Melody then i go to work

But not this time

My mind was still fixed in Paris , mostly on him , who was i kidding ? Did i really expect that everything would go back to normal after I reunited with him ?

How foolish of me

It was Wednesday afternoon , i just had lunch after my assistant Judy insisted on bringing me something from McDonald that was across the street

I had treated about twenty patients from the morning , i tried my best to do anything that could've distracted my mind and keep me busy

Suddenly , there was a knock on my door before it opened , revealing Harold , I haven't seen him ever since Paris ; " hey there " I greeted him as i got up and walked to him

He entered holding in his hand a box of chocolate, he handed it to me saying he bought them for Melody , i thanked him before we hugged each other and asked him to take seat

" so what brings you here ?" I asked as i took my seat on my desk ; " i just needed to see another face other than the ones in the hospital , you know you had made the best decision in your life by opening your own clinic , cause working in a public hospital is just... exhausting " he explained

" yeah tell me about it , but between you and me the real reason why I opened my clinic was to get as far as i could from Helena " I sarcastically told him as we both laughed ;" yeah she could be annoying sometimes " he said

" sometimes? For two years of training she wouldn't stop harassing me and making fun of my clothes " i complained to him ; " alright I've got no argument left " he raised up his hands pretending to surrender

As we were talking , Judy called through the work phone , informing me about a patient that had just arrived, named Owen , i told her to let him come up ; " i guess this my sign to leave ?" Harold joked as he stood up

I stood up too attempting to walk him out at least ; " hey , i was thinking , how about we meet for dinner ton-" Harold spoke before the door opened again . My eyes went wide as my mouth fell open

I was so shocked that i thought i was imagining him from overthinking about him much , but no , it was real , he was here , Chase was here , in London , inside my office

Both Harold and i were startled and surprised to see him , he looked between us with an evil glare , until his mouth curved into a little smile ; " hello" he simply said , Harold and I exchanged few looks before looking at him again

" Chase Romano ...isn't it ?" Harold spoke
;"  that's the one " Chase answered; " wh..what are you doing here ?" Harold asked him ; " i have a business meeting here in London , and lately i was feeling a little sick so i thought , why not stop by one of my newest friend who happens to be a doctor " Chase stated , referring to me

" but my assistant told me Owen is here " i spoke ,catching his mischievous eyes ; "Owen's my middle name , I often use it " he said

Harold said goodbye to me and excused himself before leaving my office , now it was just me and him in the room , i glared at him furiously; " what the hell are you doing here ?" I asked . He remained silent , instead he looked around the office then at me again , checking me up and down
