Chapter 10: Falling for you

"Morning" I greeted her  while opening my locker.

"You sis had sex last night" She laughed coming to my locker. "You are glowing!" She pointed at my face.

"Actually this morning, still fresh" I laughed back. "But let's not talk about me" I said seriously.

I had to ask her why the hell was she was Giorno the night after the party. 

She is younger than me and I was feeling always protective of her. 

She sighed and looked at me tasing her eyebrow.

"What is the thing between you and Giorno?" I asked her while putting on my work clothes. "And don't try lying to me" I laughed.

She sat on the couch and blushed.

"We, are kinda likee" she started to ramble around the actual truth.

"Straight forward, please" I turned around and smiled at her. 

I've put on my badge on my neck and locked my locker. I laid back at it and crossed my arms.

"We are together, like a couple, I mean, not like a couple, but A couple" she said shyly and smiled so sweet.

I knew that she liked him for years since she came to work with me. Well, this is the son of our boss, I mean. 

I was happy for her. They both had common things and common roots.I was glad that he noticed such a nice girl. 

"I am so happy to hear that! Finally he realised what a sweetheart you are" I laughed.

"But please don't tell anybody for that, okay?" She begged me.

"Oh, I was just going to tell that to everybody" I said sarcastically and we both laughed.

"What about Mr.Musk?" She asked seriously and I felt the respect when she spelled his name.

I smiled softly remembering this morning.

"I am scared of the fact that I'm falling for him so hard..." I said "He is so kind and intelligent and the most important thing is that he respects me and my profession, and motivates me to keep going with my work"

"Look, (Y/N), I know that you heart is still hurting after you broke up with you ex, but you won't continue with your life if you are overthinking" She said seriously and smiled gently.

"You are right.." I looked at my feet "i just don't want to be hurt and disrespected again" I sighed.

"I am sure that Mr.Musk is a very good person, plus he didn't stoped asking about you after you left the party" She chuckled. 

After I heard this words my heart skipped a beat. I smiled and blushed.

"That's a good thing...i guess" I murmured "Let's go!" I said making my way to the door.

Through out the whole day Maria's words were echoing in my head and followed my every thought. I hated the fact that I couldn't concentrate on my work, because of that. She was right, but a part of me couldn't still believe it. I finished my last surgery before lunch break and went to get a coffee and grab a bite before I continue with my day.

I went to the cafeteria and got myself a big cup of black coffee to boost me up and to help me concentrate more for the rest of the day. I wasn't actually that hungry, so I skipped getting something to eat. I sat on the table on the most far corner of the room and got my phone out. I pressed the button of my iPhone hoping I would see Elon's name on the screen, but no calls or messages.
