Chapter 257 - You Two Kissed?

Lisa was surprised at Steve's sudden behaviour. Just this week he told their boss, Daniel, that he doesn't wish to work under him so that he could avoid her and now suddenly he showed up and was being friendly.

In the last one week, since she started living with her sister again, she felt much better. 

After the way Steve found out her feelings and reacted to it, Lisa would have been broken if not for Emily saving her on time from falling into this misery.

Last week was the best week of her life. She, Emily and Matt had a great time together, Patrick too used to join them whenever he was free.

They used to go to the workplace together, come home together, have breakfast and dinner together.

At Lunch hours, it is not possible to be together as at times she skips her meals or has food when it is feasible.

Emily, Lisa and Matt watched many movies and binge watched one series, they had a great time, pulling each other's legs.

Lisa was able to stop thinking about Steve because of the time she was spending with Matt and Emily. She was doing better than she thought but now seeing Steve, all those feelings and memories rushed back, making her upset.

Right now, she was confused as to why Steve suddenly showed up here, sat at their table without any invitation and was talking to her nicely.

'Is he here for some revenge?' This was her first thought.

"Lisa" Steve lovingly called her, surprising Lisa and annoying Matt.

"Why are you here?" She asked him directly and didn't waste any time.

"I was passing by this restaurant and heard good reviews about it. When I came here, I saw you two and since I am alone I decided to join you guys" Steve casually explained as if they are close friends and this is what they usually do.

"What a shameless man, joined us without any invitation" Matt loudly muttered.

Lisa ignored Matt's taunts and didn't stop him from saying what he wanted to say.

"Steve, I and Matt came out for lunch as it is Matt's treat, it would be rude if you…"

"Fine, it is my treat then, you don't have to pay" He rudely said.

"Can't you understand? We don't want you to join us" Matt frankly said. If Steve was being shameless then he can be even more shameless than him.

"I don't care what you want, Lisa would love to have me here" Steve countered.

"Steve, last week you told our senior doctor you don't want to work under him, so that you can avoid me but now you are acting like this. What is wrong with you?" Lisa strightaway asked him what was on her mind. 

She and Steve had been friends for many years and they have that kind of comfort zone around each other.

"Lisa, that day I was acting stupid, after finding out your feelings for me, I went mad, my mind stopped working. I was being ridiculous, I am really sorry Lisa, I don't want to lose my best friend over something so silly"

"My feelings are silly?" Lisa questioned him.

"No, my reaction to it was silly" Steve looked apologetic.

"Steve, can we talk later? I am here with…" Lisa was not comfortable Steve talking like this in front of Matt, she was not sure why but she didn't like it.

"Why does it matter if he is here? And why suddenly are you close with him? If I am not wrong one day you cursed Matt so much and were upset with him over something" Steve reminded her.

Lisa recollected after Matt stole her first kiss so casually, she went crazy and wanted to beat him up. Since she couldn't, she shared her frustration and anger with Steve but didn't tell him why she was upset with Matt. She didn't wish Steve too knew how Matt kissed her, stealing her first.

"Oh, so you cursed me?" Matt got upset to know she cursed him in front of Steve.

"Matt, it was about that day when you broke up with that girl, taking my help" Lisa indirectly tried to help him remember the incident due to which she cursed him, so that Matt can understand her state of mind.

But Matt was shameless, to which extent he was, even Lisa couldn't predict until now, "Oh, the day we shared our first kiss?" Matt casually said out the words clear and loud enough for Steve to know.

Steve looked at Lisa and Matt in shock, "Is something going on between you two?" He couldn't help but ask.

For the last few days he noticed that  Matt and Lisa had been spending way too much time together. He multiple times saw how they even came to the hospital together and left together.

He couldn't figure out what exactly was happening between them but he was sure that Lisa won't start dating Matt so soon.

In her diary, he read how much she loves him. She loved him for so many years, so it was not possible she would move on in a few days.

'She only loves me, only me' Steve assured himself.

Lisa, on the other hand, was shocked at Matt's shamelessness. Indirectly, she mentioned their first kiss but he intentionally brought that topic out.

She kept glaring at the naughty man, who was avoiding her anger and ate his food like he said nothing wrong.

"You two kissed?" Steve finally found his voice and looked at Lisa in surprise.

"Hmm, it was accidental, that's why I was upset" Since the cat was out of the bag, she just decided to be honest. There was no point in hiding the truth.

"Oh" Steve was not sure how to react to it. Lisa was not his girlfriend for him to get upset about it but he surely didn't like the fact that something so intimate happened between Matthew and Lisa.
