Edser OS and Short Stories

Is this me or you, Dr. Bolat? (AU) Chapter 6

Eda was woken up by voices from the corridor. She was so comfortable that she didn't want to get up so she shifted on her side to go back to sleep. When she felt a hand squeezing her breast, her eyes flew open as she remembered where she was. She was with Serkan, sleeping on the couch in his office after the wild sex they had. Serkan was still sleeping, spooning her, and they were naked under the blanket.

Eda took his hand, looked at the watch on his wrist, and cursed. She had a very important interview for her scholarship program and was almost late. Why did her alarm not ring?

Eda scrambled out of Serkan's limbs, and he shifted in his sleep, mumbling about her coming back to bed. She shook him firmly, trying to wake him up, but he moved on his stomach and covered his head with the blanket.

"Serkan!" She called him, nudging him in his side, but the answer was only silence and deep breathing.

Eda pursed her lips, standing over him with her hands on her hips. She didn't have time to stay and talk with him, and he'd probably be offended if he woke up and didn't see her there, but she couldn't wake him up. Why had he been stubborn even in his sleep?

Eda quickly picked up her discarded clothes and looked for her phone. The battery was dead. She dressed up and ran from his office, already late.

Four hours later Eda walked through the university corridor, holding in her hand a borrowed charger. She finally found the outlet to load her phone and turned it on. She had many unanswered calls from Serkan. He must be pissed. When she tried to call him back, she found out he blocked her. He definitely was furious. Knowing his hot-headedness, he was now offended even more than before.

Eda went to his office, but the door was closed, and she didn't hear him inside. She went outside to the university grounds to see if his car was still parked under the building when she spotted him leaving his black BMW. He must've been at home as he changed his clothes. When he saw her, he marched toward her, seething from anger, and stopped in front of her.

"What was that?! You can't just come and treat me like your personal dick to fuck!"

Eda looked around to see if anyone was near them to notice the scene Serkan made. Fortunately, she couldn't spot anybody.

She sighed heavily. "You didn't like it?"

"It's not the point!" Serkan shouted, turning red. "You can't come and go whenever you want!"

"If you didn't want to, you could stop."

"Eda!"

"Dr. Bolat, congratulation on your discovery. The whole world will be shaken by it." They heard the voice behind their back and turned to see one of the professors approaching them, holding the paper in his hands.

"Excuse me?" Serkan frowned.

"Your equation. It was mindblowing. No one ever was able to solve the problem."

"I don't understand."

"I just got a draft of your article to review for the periodic. I have to admit, it took me a while to understand it, but when I did, just wow."

Professor Yilmaz gave Serkan printed-out paper and went inside the university building. Eda came close to take it from his hands, and her eyes turned round after seeing the authorship and the abstract. She turned to Serkan and looked at him with disgust.

"I always thought you just took offense too bad, but I never thought you were so vengeful." She spat, shaking from anger.

Serkan looked at her in deep shock. "I don't know what you are talking about."
