Chapter 25
“What does it mean?” I asked Grayson, confused.
His mouth reached near my ears so I flinched and held his chest to stop him but he was persistent, not minding the teasing shouts from the audience.
Wow. He’s really popular in this hospital.
“It means back off or they’ll fuck up.”
My forehead knotted out of confusion.
“That’s new. You never did curse unless you got tempted. What does that mean?”
“No one’s allowed to own my property.”
I don’t get it.
“Alessia, right? You look more beautiful and dazzling than the last time I saw you. Haley by the way.” Grayson's friend lend me her hands and smiled.
“Obviously she’s under my care. What do you expect?” Grayson bragged.
“Yeah. . .” I just answered Haley and avoided her gaze.
I tightened my grip on Grayson’s coat, asking his help because I’m uncomfortable with her making eye contact with me.
“My baby’s scared. Stay away, Haley.” He shooed her away.
The guy named Jason laughed hard in his mocking tone.
“Because the girl looks like a tiger ready to eat the baby!” He was not looking at Haley when he said that, instead, he was looking at me while mocking Haley.
“No one’s allowed to call her baby. Only me, Jason.”
I mentally rolled my eyes at that thought.
He called Lia a baby! What kind of shit is that?!
“And you’re the lion, afraid of the tiger, Jason.” Lia said in her laughing tone.
“I’m not afraid!”
“Oh really? Why can’t you look at her, Huh?” It was Lia, challenging.
“Are you talking to me, Jason?” Haley’s voice was echoed in the whole canteen.
Wonder what relationship does this two have.
“Nice to meet you, Alessia. I’m Jason, your boyfriend’s friend. You’re so beauti—” He looked at Geayson and gulped. “. . . by the way, if you have a sister, kindly introduce her to— ahh! Fuck!” Haley kicked his cock.
“You and your hook-ups!”
“My sister! Introduce her to my sister! Because she’s fond of you! But you don’t like her!” Jason’s voice was mad at Haley but he was looking at me while feet were curling out of pain.
His sister? Whom is he talking to?
I grasp Grayson’s coat.
“Jason.” He warned.
“I’m not mad! Fuck it hurts! Fuck you, Ha— self!”
I looked up to Grayson who’s now staring at Jason with his perilous eyes.
“Are you hungry?” I asked.
His face softened when he looked at me.
“Why?” He softly asked and his arms that were wrapped around my shoulder went down to my waist.
He pulled me closer even though I’m already close to him, then, he turned his back on them and hoofed his way towards one of the empty table.
“Do you still have work?”
