Look at you being all mighty and arrogant but blushing like a little girl in front of his first boyfriend" he just stare hard at her and thought" her smile is so pretty, feels like capture it in my grasp so only I can look at it and no one else"
She stop laughing and then become serious" look just consider me as a doctor as I'm only considering you as my patient so don't over think and look" she raise her hand in air showing her hands covered in gloves " I'm wearing gloves so there is no physical contact if you are feeling uncomfortable but still if you don't want to then I can call my colleague to help you" when she said that he imagine a man touching him "no that can't be" he thought.
" No! It's it's fine you can continue I don't have any objections" he said urgently " she is better then some big fat man" he thought.
