Be my Pretty Man (#1 of Guilberra Series)✔

Chapter 44

Napanganga lang rin ako sa aking nakita, Sadyang bumibilis na talaga ang puso ko. Mother of Christ help me.

Bigla ring kumirot ang aking puso at tila nalulungkot. Dahan-dahan lang ako lumapit sa kanya at umupo sa sofa.

"S-So you're m-my M-Mentor?"

"Yes."

*Katahimikan*

Napaduko lang rin ako. Kung ako lang ang masusunod ay umalis na talaga ako dito. I am really regretful for walking right in to this room. Huhuhu jusko Lord pinaparusahan niyo na ba ako?

"Ms. Guilberra.." He started with his now deeply but still soothing voice. Dahan-dahan lang rin akong napatingin sa kanya. Just looking at him made me shiver. That once sparkling eyes was gone. Those freaky gay hand gestures were also gone, and the jeje language that I long to listen everyday just vanished.

What I'm looking at right now is a man with more sharp features. Totoo nga na bumago na siya. Wala na yung Charles na nakilala ko. Wala na yung binabaeng inibig ko at pina-ibig ako.

"So I've heard that you've been struggling during operations..is that correct?" He stated with his thick accent. Nakakabago rin pala talaga ng accent ang states? Ahem ahem! by the way back to him.

Tumango lang ako at hindi na nag-salita. He just glared drills at me while stacking his papers.

"Tell me..ano bang natutuman mo sa medicine?"

"A-About h-human concern and d-diseases p-po...Sir.." I whispered. And Damn my voice is cracking. Konting tanong nalang at mapapaos na talaga ako dito. "At bakit pag-dating dito sa ospital ay wala ka nang magawa? are you seriously saying that Medical schools are useless?" Pang-iinsulto niya. Napalunok lang rin ako at umiling.

I gathered all my courage and stared at his cold eyes. Yung mga matang dating may kinang. I just stood there, still emotionless while staring at him.

"If you think that I'm a dumb person then say it directly to me, and if we're just gonna stay here throwing insults at each other. No thank you, because I have important matters to attend." Pagtataray ko. Yeah, I still love him but he dosen't have the right to treat me and my career as trash.

Kung wala man akong natutunan sa medical school eh mas wala siyang natutunan sa kanyang good manners and right conduct. Baka gusto pa niya magpadikit pa ako ng mga posters sa kanyang office.

Patungo na sana ako sa pintuan ng marinig ko ang ingay ng kanyang upuan. "Yeah, you're right..I'm not gonna waste my time insulting you.." Pairap niyang tugon. Bumalik lang ako sa aking kinatatayuan at hinalukipkip ang aking kamay.

"Let's just start this over, Hi I'm Dr. Charles Sarmiento. I will be your partner and mentor, nice to meet you.." Aniya at nakipagkamay sa akin. Hinawakan ko lang rin ang kanyang mainit na kamay. God just holding his hand makes me want to throw myself to him.

"Dra. Diana Guilberra..nice to meet you again.." I whispered at the last part. Tumango tango lang siya at tumalikod sa akin. I just stared at his back for a few seconds before he turned his head to me again.

Napabuntong hininga lang siya habang inaayos ang mga papel na nakalagay sa kanyang lamesa. "So...we should start tomorrow? so that it would end earlier right?" Tanong niya. I just nodded at his statement, disappointed. Halata naman sa mukha niya na kinamumuhian niya ako.

I just pushed him away like that. I should'nt yelled at him, pero wala na eh. Nangyari na.

Napaupo lang rin ako sa upuan habang tinitingnan siya. He seems so hesitant to talk to me.
