9. MISUNDERSTAND

"What? Surgery?"

===== 

"I tell you, I didn't do anything to her! So, stop thinking about that woman and work right now!" annoyed Dave on his phone.

Standing resting on his left leg with one hand against waist, the man sighed irritably. It's countless how many Sam called him just to ask the same thing. Sam asked what he had done to a friend whose name he didn't even remember despite being said many times in their conversation.

"Damn, is it really my fault, if that woman won't take your call?" he continued grumblingly, staring at the phone screen that was still on.

This is already the fourth time Dave has turned down a call from Sam. Yesterday, when they met, they did not discuss this. Dave didn't tell Sam about what was happening in his basement. After all, it's not important, he thought.

Sam should be worried about him who is always attacked when his body is weak. Twice Sam's new friend approached him. When he was mentally unstable and most upset him, Sam was the one who allowed the woman to approach him!

So they shouldn't blame him, if he loses control and hurts a woman who doesn't know what his name is, Dave just remembers his face.

It wasn't until last night that Dave remembered Estelle's face. The woman who has always been making him fight with Sam lately.

"As I guessed, that woman is indeed the troublesome type! It is not only troublesome, but also dangerous. He can make the obedient Sam into the refuting Sam!"

Dave, who had been silent for half a minute in the corridor, began to look around and realized that he had become the center of attention, especially from the women.

The white turtleneck T-shirt is covered with a long coat and black jeans, making his handsome charisma even more obvious.

Dave hates this atmosphere, even though he has taken anti-anxiety medicine five minutes ago. He can still feel anxiety even though the symptoms of anxiety are quite different when he is not taking medicine.

Now, Dave is in the hospital. The reason he was in that place was because his medicine supply had run out. Usually, the doctor will visit or send the medicine. However, now Dave wants to take it directly to consult.

He hasn't set foot there for almost two years. Well, all because there are spies who keep watching him.

Dave tried to ignore and went back to playing with the mobile phone. His thumb swiped up the screen to look for a name. Andrew, the name of the contact he immediately called.

Walked with a look of eyes looking down. Dave's phone is now attached to his earlobe.

"How much longer do I have to wait?!" annoyed Dave, immediately grumbling when his call was received.

A burst of laughter sounded from across the phone. "I'm happy, it turns out that this patient of mine really wants to see me. Is this the so-called, miss me?"

Dave was even more annoyed at the joke that he didn't think was funny. "Don't be kidding! I--"

Bruk!

"Ah!"

The heart that was beating quietly instantly became pounding. An annoying reaction when his body was touched suddenly by a woman. Moreover, the melodious scream just now made his whole body goose bumps!

Dave took a deep look at the woman who quickly bowed apologetically at him, and then simply left.

Honestly, he really doesn't like the slightest physical contact of the opposite sex. It's not that he can't be patient or can't forgive. But perhaps because of his gynophobia, he found it difficult to accept an apology from the woman. Disgust seemed to ridicule him even more if he forgave that little thing.

Well ... Taking medicine does not mean that he can be normal like ordinary people. He will still feel uneasy to see women. It's just that he can survive and control his sanity, such as not hitting or injuring someone.

"Damn!" growled Dave.

It seems that this time, he can't control his sanity even though he has been helped by medicine. Knowing who the woman who bumped into him just now, Dave immediately gritted his teeth.

The anger that Dave was holding back a few seconds ago, just overflowed. His feet stepped wide and quickly towards the woman who was fixing her black scarf. Quickly, his hand grabbed the woman's shoulder.

"Didn't I tell you? If I see you again, you will accept the consequences!" Dave exclaimed, his voice sounding firm.

With a still shocked heart, Estelle frowned. She wondered why the man pulled her shoulders so tight.

"Did I make a mistake when I hit him earlier?" she thought, looking at the man who looked upset in front of her. That face ... looks, familiar ....

Behind his sunglasses, Dave gave a sharp look to Estelle. The grip of the left hand on Estelle's shoulder was tighter, making the woman grimace softly.

"From the way you look at me, it seems that you forgot about me?" Dave opened the glasses, then pulled the corners of his lips. Clearly, the look in green eyes looked contemptuously. "How is it? Remember me, hm?" he continued.

Estelle opened her eyes wide. "Da-Dave?"

Two flavors mixed in the heart. Estelle was both shocked and confused at two things. First, why could Dave look so angry with her? And secondly, what did Dave's previous remarks mean?

Well, whatever the answer she doesn't really care, because now there is more important than this.

"Don't say my name with your cheap mouth!" said Dave, then clucked in disgust. "Don't you have any self-esteem? I'm really sick of your deeds that keep following me wherever I go! Tsk! Disgusting! You lowly woman!" he continued even more furiously, his hand letting go and pushing Estelle's shoulder. His voice was loud and firm, making several people start whispering looking at the two of them.

Estelle frowned even more. She didn't understand, why she had to hear the insult. "What do you mean?!" she said firmly.

Dave laughed tastelessly. Can't believe that the stalker woman has forgotten what he said yesterday. "What do I mean? Don't pretend to be naïve! You disgusting!"

Disgusting? Hah! This is crazy! Not knowing how many more times she had to hear all those words that were so insulting to her. Estelle rubbed her hair. With her head looking up, Estelle breathed in as much air as she could.

What's the matter today? Since morning, bad luck has continued to come to her. Today is the first time she asked the superior for leave, the first time she was slapped and the first time, the anger in the heart made herself weak ... It seemed that she was no longer able to argue with anyone.

"Look, sir, I really don't know what you're angry about, but I have to leave now!" said Estelle. She really had to see a doctor immediately to see her younger brother who had just had an accident.

Just turning around wanting to leave, Dave touched Estelle again. The woman's wrist was grabbed and clasped tightly. The beautiful green eyes looked more and more sinister, the sharp look really scared Estelle. The memory of when she was strangled by Dave was recalled.

To be continued ....
