ALEX'S POV

"i dont know what to order doc." i said to Chris while looking at the menu.

After going out of the hospital, I called Monica to join us for dinner but we were waiting for he for almost 30 minutes. I think she's still asking for our manager for her early leave.

But Monica doesnt know that Chris will be joining us, or for the matter of fact its his treat. But Monica was always quite one when it comes to relationships, i know she have a past of her own, but his ex was so low and stupid to let Monica go. That bastard should be lucky enough to be with Monica, who is funny, naughty, supportive, caring and all that best girl friend you can find, you can find it in her. Shes perfect in every way. And now i want her to move on and have a little fun of her own.

"excuse me, young lady?....what did you just call me?" Chris looked at me with a challenging look. I know he hates me calling him doc but sometimes, it just slip out of my mind.

"sorry, mr. Evan....." i looked at him and he scowled at me "fine! CHRIS! Happy now? Geez just messing with you.........really, i really dont know what to order. Help the poor girl order since you know what are the HEALTHY foods are." i faked frustrated which he just raised his eyebrow at me.

"may i take your order sir.... Mam" the waiter came with his pad and ballpen.

Chris was giving our order to the waiter.which he also ordered for Monica. While he was ordering i was trying to call Monica which i saw her entering and looking around the restaurant.

I waved at her twice and she smiled when she saw me.

When Chris saw me waving at someone, he followed my direction and he tried to turn around to find Monica walking towards us.

Monica's smile died when she saw who im with. And she looked at me like i was ridiculous.

"Hey!what took you so long?" i stood up to give her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. And she smiled at Chris.

"i just bump into someone outside." she shrugged and sigh, like she was stress.

"you okay?" Chris asked looking worried.

"yeah, its just weird seeing someone from your past walking towards you like............i dont know" she gave him a reassuring smile and shrugged her shoulders again.

"so whats for dinner?" she asked in delighted mood.

"well that for you....... And you to find out, i know you will love it" Chris pointed at Monica and me and he massage the near shoulder of monica and smiled at her like giving her a message that says everything will be alright.

I hold Monica's hand under the table which is cold and trembling. I squeeze her hand and gave her a questionable look. Which she weakly smiled at me and mouthed later.

We talked and ate our food for hours and we laughed more at Chris joke and high school experiences. Which he was a funny person back in the day and his classmates were being nice to him and wanted be his friend because he was prankster, funny and also smart.

Chris also told us what kinds of pranks he did to his teacher when the semester was almost done. He put a blue paint in a bucket and put it on the top of his teachers office which is connected by a string. So when his teacher pushed the door open, the bucket full of paint fell on his teacher's head. And his teacher were screaming and shouting Chris' name. And thats when Chris started running out of school. But he didnt escaped the 1 week detention.

While Chris were talking, i observed that Monica frowned when Chris started talking about pranks. Which really bothers me because Monica is always happy and smiling but today, shes weird.

I squeeze her hand again, while laughing at Chris.

After a good three hours of spending the dinner with them. I feel much better now. The past are in the past, if i want to move forward i have to fight and not show my weakness again. Lets just hope that i'll never see Nick again.

We walked out of the restaurant. And Chris gave us a ride home since i didnt use my car.

When we arrived at home chris gave me a kiss on my temple and hugged me tightly and whispered something to my ear.

"eat properly Alex okay?take care of your self, ALWAYS okay?and no work for you for now okay? Rest for a while so that the sweeling of your legs and feet will lessen, understood?" he pulled away and he pointed at me.

"yes father, i love you Chris, thanks for making my day better your the best" i hugged him back and kiss his cheecks and thats when he messes my hair again. And i scowled at him.

And he looked at Monica awkwardly and walked towards her giving her a hug and kiss her on the cheeks and smiled at her.

"you guys have a good night......now go get inside." he ordered while walking towards to his car and getting inside the driver's seat.

"you too, be careful on driving home okay?good night" Monica said while smiling and waving at him.

And in that we saw Chris driving away.
