CONTINUATION
"Okay, kung ayaw mo 'di wag. Pero gusto ko lang sana bumawi sa'yo sa pagtabi mo ng gamit ko...alam ko namang mababaw e pero sentimental akong tao at mahalaga sa akin. So, anong pwede kong gawin to make it up to you?"
Halata namang sincere siya sa sinabi niya kasi may pag-puppy eyes pang nalalaman. He was just looking at me.
"You know what? You don't need to make bawi, okay? It's fine." sagot ko nalang.
"Ayoko nga," sabi niya. "Sige na, pagbigyan mo na 'ko. Pasasalamat ko nalang sa'yo."
I took a deep breath and rolled my eyes then turned around. I started walking to enter the clinic. It's a good thing there are really no patients at this time because they usually come in the afternoon. I did not realize that he also followed inside. Sophie and Doc Lovelle greeted him.
"Magandang araw." ganting bati niya sa mga ito. Ngumiti siya kina Lovelle at Sophie, ako naman tiningnan sila ng masama.
Sophie immediately approached him to ask for the infos that the owner of a specific pet usually answers. "Sir, pet's name po?" I saw his eyes widened but remained calm as possible.
"Ah hindi ako magpapa-check up ng pet. Pinuntahan ko si Doc. Reyes, may kinuha lang akong importanteng gamit."
I was suddenly teased secretly by the two based on their looks and facial expressions. I was not happy with what they were doing so I took a sharper look back at them.
"Ganun po ba? Sorry sir. Akala ko eh..." -Sophie.
"Uhm, Sir. Joaquin..." I called him as I slightly scratched the side of my neck. Lowkey annoyed. "I don't wanna be rude or something 'no... but you can actually go now? I mean, you got your bracelet already? Maybe you don't have anything more needed here?"
He laughed slightly. Then he also stood up and walked in front of Doc Lovelle. Sophie and I stared at each other as we waited for the next move this pilot would make.
"Doc." he said, he looked at Lovelle's name placed on her chest, "Doc. Lovelle...may I ask if available si Doc. Dennise ngayon? Kahit mga 1 hour lang?"
"Sure, Sir! Tanghali pa lang naman ho. Basta you return her by afternoon kasi marami ako at marami rin siyang cute patients ng ganung oras."
Oh my God. I am confused. Wala man lang pagda-dalawang isip na nagdesisyon itong si Doc. Lovelle? Basta basta nalang akong pinamimigay.
O e bakit di ka kumontra?
"Paano ba 'yan? I-excuse kita ng one hour."
I poker faced and signaled the two to get out of the scene for a minute. I badly wanna talk to this man. Face to face. He's annoying!
"Will you stop?"
"From what?"
"From pestering me. Can't you see that I'm peacefully working here? Tapos ayan ka, ayaw mo pa umalis."
He bowed her head, "Sorry..."
Why is he like that? He freaking loves to annoy people—and then when you confront him right in front of his face, he suddenly apologizes. Sometimes, you do not know if you will continue to be angry with him or just ignore what he is doing.
