Chapter 68 - I Like You

"Thank You so much Doc!" A young woman hugged Yera tightly as soon as she relayed how the operation went successful for the patient named Terry Lim. She informed them that the patient was now at the recovery room and would be soon moved to her private room.

She saw Keira and greeted the latter who walked towards her and scolded the woman who did not let Yera go with her hugging, "Rizie, let go and let Dr. Song breath. I'm sure she's exhausted after saving Grandma Terry."

The lady named Rizie finally let Yera go and with a beautiful smile said, "Sorry Dr.  Song. It's just that I'm really grateful that my Grandma Terry is now safe. Than you so much Dr. Song."

Yera smiled back and nodded. She bid her farewell after she discussed the condition of the patient to her family. She was stretching her arms and neck as she walked towards Xander's office to rest. She looked at her wrist watch. It was past 9:00 PM already and she could feel the grumbling of her stomach.

She stopped walking and turned back to eat first. She almost forgot to eat dinner. She headed in the canteen first and ordered for food. She saw Dion who was eating alone so  she walked towards him and sat in front of him.

"Why are you still here?" she asked nonchalantly. She heard Dion released a long deep sigh before he muttered. "Sit beside me not in front of me. That evil spirit seems unstable…"

"What the heck!" Yera hissed as she immediately stood up and sat beside Dion instead. She could feel goosebumps all over her body that she regretted she even approach and sat with Dion.

She heard Dion chuckled so her eyes rounded as she confronted him, "Are you doing a prank on me?!"

"Of course not, but your scary face is really fun. Why? Do you regret approaching me? Because most of my friends do especially when I was still a kid. Go eat Deyna, I can hear your stomach grumbling." Dion said casually as he continued to eat. Whenever they were alone together, the two of them would call each other in their first names.

Yera felt guilty and  said, "Sorry. I told you not to talk creepy things when we're together."

Dion laughed and said, "It's necessary because that spirit sitting in front of us look pissed off. I'm used to this kind of thing so whenever I saw those spirits I don't take them seriously. I even make jokes about them."

Dion could really see those things though he did not believe for them to exist but he learned that evil spirits do really exist however, he had grown his faith to God so he came to overcome them  along the process. Those spirits could not touch him or scare him anymore because he was covered and protected by the blood of God, his Saviour. He told Yera about this while they ate, all about his 'third eye'. Yera listened well and would occasionally give comments and questions whenever she  was curious.

"So do you think I'm also weird?" Dion asked afterwards. "Hmm, not really. All of us have different perspective in life.  We also have different beliefs and I don't think you're weird simply because I respect your beliefs…" Yera answered simply.

Dion smiled at her and said, "That's why I really like you Deyna. You're the best among the rest. No one will understand me better than you do."

"Hmmp, I'm sure you need something or up to something? What is it?" Yera asked with twitched mouth because everytime Dion would compliment her what would follow was a favor.

Dion scratched his head and said, "I'm having a hard time doing the colectomy…" Yera's nostrils flare and said, "Alright, I'll teach you a more convenient better technique later because right now I'm totally dead tired."

Yera bid her farewell first and quickly left Dion alone who mumbled, "How come she eats so fast?"

Then he added staring at the seat in front of him, enough for him to only hear it, "Shoo! I'm losing my appetite because of you..." Then he closed his eyes and uttered a silent prayer.

...

Yera creased her forehead seeing Xander's office lights were on from the outside. She entered the office but no one was around. She opened Xander's private room and opened the lights. She saw Xander socks, shoes and tie scattered on the floor. 

Her eyes lit up as she saw Xander was lying on the bed. She immediately cleaned herself up and joined him on the bed. She did not turn the lights out yet to  have a better look at his peaceful face. He looked exhausted and she bet he was for real. He travelled back and forth on different countries not to mention he had a lot occupying his mind right now.

Yera sighed and bent down to give him a goodnight kiss for the first time. Her lips gently touched his and before she could raise her lips, Xander suddenly hugged her closely and firmly. Xander positioned their bodies sideways where he hugged her wholly. He opened his eyes and looked intently at Yera.

"Hmm… Why is the kiss you're giving me is short. I thought you miss me. But now I doubt you do. If you miss someone you should at least give…" said Xander with pouted lips but was interrupted by Yera's lips who immediately sealed his mouth with her lingering passion, proving how she longed for him.

She was giving him a torrid kiss that Xander was left breathless as soon as Yera let go of her lips for more than several minutes of probing deep in his mouth.

Then Yera buried her face on his neck and hugged him even tighter. "You look tired. Go and sleep. Hmm, also, I like you very much. I'm exhausted too now that my eyes are too heavy," Yera murmured in her sluggish voice before Xander heard her heavy breathing and soft snoring.

Xander smiled… His heart was dancing with so much joy before he closed his eyes and muttered, "I love you…"
