CHAPTER 2

Working Her Ass Off

Marie Lyssa Point of View

I lazily get off my bed as the sun shine so bright. I don't want to get up yet but do I have a choice? I have work to do.

I rubbed my eyes as I went to my bathroom.

Kailangan kong maligo para mawala ang antok ko.

I slip myself inside the bath tub and close my eyes for a moment. I don't need to rush. I want to relax more.

Hindi pa rin ako nakakabawi mula sa ilang oras kong biyahe.

When I feel that I had enough already. Umalis na ako sa bath tub at nagpunta sa aking closet. Nagbihis ako ng isang not so tight slacks at tinernuhan ko ng royal blue 3/4th sleeve at kinuha ang aking lab robe kasama na ang stethoscope ko.

Sa hospital nalang ako kakain ng agahan. Wala na akong oras para magluto pa.

So I went down stairs and an amazing aroma of food welcomes my nostrils.

Which means there is someone cooking in the kitchen.

Who could that be?

I ready myself as I went to the kitchen just in case its a tresspasser.

I was rooted on my place when I saw who's cooking.

Looks like he sense my presence which cause him to look at me. His eyes bulged in disbelief. His mouth fell open upon seeing me.

I immediately recovered from the shock and raised my brow at him.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him giving emphasis on the word you.

He blinks multiple of time as he stared at me.

"M-Marie?" He unbelievably utter my name.

I rolled my eyes because of that. Was that all he's going to say? I turned my back at him and was about to leave when he grabs my arm.

I annoyingly shrugged off his hand in my arms and glared at him.

"Don't touch me! Why are you here?" I coldly asked him as I raised my brows. Showing him how already pissed I am.

"K-Kailan ka pa nakauwi? B-Bakit hindi ka nagpasabi?" I remain my stoic face as I faced him with my head held up high.

"Why do you care? It's none of your business." I flatly said and turned my back on him.

I don't have to explain to him.

"Aalis ka? Saan ka pupunta? Ihahatid kita." I looked at him once again.

"No need. I can take care of myself. I have learned. I don't need your help." And then I finally went out the kitchen.

I never expected that I could see him so soon. But who cares. I'm not affected anymore. He was just my past now. And i have nothing to do with him anymore.

But why does my heart beats so fast? What does that mean?

I shook my head in disbelief because of what I am thinking.

You can't feel something from him again Lyssa. Not again.

I moved on from you Verro. And I won't fall for you again. I had enough.

I am smiling as I talk to my patient. She was just 8 years old and she was suffering pnuemonia. Her family admitted her and I am her doctor.

She was so bubbly and talkative. She  keeps on telling me stories that I can somehow relates to. I was once a child also.

Yet she can't directly talk because she often coughs. I rubbed her back and kissed her temple.

"You should drink your meds on time, okay baby?" She happily nods her head in approval.

"You're so beautiful." She complimented me. I gave her my warmest smile and kissed her nose.

"Your also beautiful dear. Thank you." I genuinely said.

I assisted her to lie down on her bed.

"You should take a nap sweetheart. You need to rest." The little girl followed wgat I said. She closed her eyes and went to sleep.

I smiled and went outside her room. Her parents were there watching us from the outside.

"She's fine now. Just a few more test and you can bring her home again. I will give you a list for her medications later." I politely told them and they just nod and smiled later on.

So I went back to my office and sit on my swivel chair.

I felt the sudden tiredness as I finally sat down on my chair.

I love my profession so much but I can't deny the fact that I can also feel tired about it.

I never really got the right rest since I came home from Europe. I was so stress when I left from Europe. I've got so many paper works and such things to finish there before I went home. Its very exhausting but I can't complain.

Maybe I'll just get a one week leave from work. So that I can somehow relax.

I was massaging my head when there is someone knocking on my door. I fixed myself and motion the person to get inside.

My eyes widen when he came inside my office.

"What are you doing here?!" I hissed as I glare at him.

"I brought you this." He answered as he raised his hand with a plastic bag.

"What's that?" I annoyingly asked again.

"Food. You haven't eaten your breakfast yet." He smiled and put the bag on my table.

I just stared at him blankly.

"I don't need that. Why are you here? Leave! Bring your food with you." I demanded at him. He just shrugged and what he said next stunned me.

"Why? Is it wrong for me to bring my wife her breakfast?" Oh right! I  am his wife! Damn him!

Go to hell Verro! I hissed in my mind as I glared at him. He had this playful smirk in his luscious lips.
