NORA
“Great Job Alicia. Way to go” I shot her a disapproving stare before going after Oscar.
I mean why would Alicia do such a thing? She just shattered a man’s heart.
A man that has done nothing but to love her. And love her with all his all.
I feel deeply for him.
“Oscar! Oscar!” I called out his name from behind as I walked behind him.
“Oscar please wait” I held his arm stopping him from taking another step.
“Oscar.” His name came out from my lips as I stared into his blank face.
“You saw what she just did right?”
“Y-yes yes I did” I felt so disappointed.
“When were you planning on telling me she has no feelings for me? You knew Nora. And you made me go through the stress today.
I planned this proposal with you, her best friend. All these while you didn’t tell me…
“Oscar I ..
“She doesn’t love me. Not anymore. I know she hides nothing from you.
I know you knew her feelings for me were dropping.
You knew didn’t you?” He asked, his lips shaky as his eyes watered in tears.
I felt guilty wash through me as he said those words out.
Yeah, I knew… I knew she was heavily crushing on David. But I swear I didn’t know it would come to an extent where she’d reject his proposal.
“I’m sorry Oscar… I..
“It’s okay. There’s nothing to be sorry for. I’m just happy everything fell out this way. I’m happy she told me the truth.
I’m happy that at Least, I won’t have to get my hopes high thinking she loves me not knowing otherwise.
I’m happy for everything. I just pray she finds the happiness she wants. And me, move on with my life”
“Oscar…” Tear slipped down my eyes as I listened to what he said.
His voice shows how sad and heartbroken he is. I’m really sorry with the way things ended up with them.
“Nora I have to go now” he spoke out.
“Then let me drive you home. Give me the keys” I retorted. I feel I need to do this.
“No. I can drive myself. I’m not drunk okay” he bluntly refused.
“I know you aren’t drunk. You are not yourself Oscar.
Please let me drive you home” I insisted stretching out my hand for his key.
He stared at me for a while before letting out a tired sigh.
“Fine”
I took the keys from him before walking towards his car.
He isn’t alright and I’m sorry for everything.
It wasn’t in my place to tell him Alicia was loosing interest in him.
It was definitely not in my place. But still, I feel sorry for the way it ended. I just hope he gets over it.
I stared once more into his face before driving out of Duvel premises.
DAVID
The Time was running out, I had to leave Ana and pick up my kids. I still couldn’t digest the fact that Mike cooked.
I really don’t have any contribution to that right now. And to think he came all the way to my house to do something else still baffles me.
Maybe he’s just trying to be friendly or something.
It’s Mike’s nature. He’s simple and lovable. I guess he was just trying to help out in Ana’s condition.
And it’s A ‘Thanks’ to him for making lunch and saving the stress. I just hope this friendly gesture doesn’t pass it’s limit?
After picking my kids, I drove them home without stopping at any eatery since lunch was already settled.
Even when Noel kept asking about lunch on our way back, I just ignored and continued driving.
“How was exam today?” I asked as I drove on.
“Fine” Janie breathe out.
“Fine Daddy I made beautiful drawings. I even drew you. ” Kayla retorted in excitement.
“Wow that’s so nice of you Baby.” I smiled sweetly, staring back at her
“What about You Noel? How was your exam? Hope you gave the right answers” I asked, staring at Noel who faced out the window.
“I’ll tell you about my exam after I’ve taken lunch” he stated plainly.
“Already” I chuckled at his response.
Such a foodie.
MIKE
The emergency that got me rushing out of David’s house was about a pregnant woman in labour.
Luckily, I and others Nurses did an operation on her and it was successful.
Both mother and Child survived without complications.
After the operation, we cleaned up and sanitized before resuming our offices.
I had a lovely time at David’s place. And to think he has such beautiful lady leaving in his house.
Well, I’m David’s friend and a successful doctor. I and David have been friends since college.
I’m not actually his best buddy though. I’m just a casual doctor friend.
He had actually phoned me this morning to come over that there’s someone he’d like me to treat.
And it was not in vain cause I got to meet a beautiful lady.
And I’d really love to know her better. She’s nice and polite in nature.
There’s something about her that’s really special and I can’t wait to visit again tomorrow ?
