“Wait, don't kick him out yet. I still have an unfinished business with him.” Dexter intercepted his father's decision-making. “What do you mean I shouldn't kick him out? Do you realize that I am doing this for you? You should be grateful to me, rather than acting this way,” George sparked outrageously at Dexter. “What have I done wrong to deserve this treatment from you? Why do you have to blame me on fucking time as though I am not your son? Did you get anything against me? Say it and stop beating around the bush.” Dexter fired back at George with a hint of confusion. All he wanted to do was to ask questions that would satisfy his curiosity. He never knew he was getting himself in bigger trouble. Seeing the heated argument between Dexter and George, Kelly beamed with a smile. He knew that it was just a matter of time before all the attention was being driven away from him. He was already making plans to sneak out without anyone's knowledge. Pointing at Kelly, George Said. “Thi

Dexter arrived outside his father's ward with high hopes and aspirations. This time, he was confident enough that no one was going to kick him out due to Doctor Escobar's massive presence. He hasn't recovered from the manner Kelly treated him in the early hours of the day. “Hold on a second, Doctor. I have one problem, and I want us to sort it out right now. Before we go inside, could you be kind enough to please promise me that you are not going to tell my Father that I spoke against his friend, Kelly? I would rather not ruin their friendship that has stood strong for decades,” Dexter pleaded with the utmost sincerity. It's rather weird to see Dexter looking so pitiful. Coming from someone who doesn't give a fuck about anyone. “You must be dreaming if you think I'm going to respond to you on that aspect. Do you think I'm here to joke with you or waste my time? I've got important issues to do with my time. Rather, I chose to sacrifice my time with you. Is this how you going to repay

“Your daughter kind of brought back old memories from the past that I've forgotten about. I can't tell how she found out about it,” George divulged without mincing words. In the process of trying to make a point, he kept messing with Kelly's head as though it was nobody's business. "You keep speaking in some languages I don't even understand. What memories are you talking about? If you are not going to tell me about it, then so be it. I would appreciate it if you stop putting me in suspense,” Kelly bemoaned. From his facial expressions, it was damn obvious that he was getting tired of the conversation. He was just seeking the perfect excuse to walk away. He stood up, wanting to leave, when George pulled him back. “I am sorry. Please be seated. The truth is, I don't even know how to go about it without having to sound rude,”“Who cares about you being rude to me? Do you realize how long we've been friends? Do I need to remind you of that? Just get on with it immediately. I don't ha

Dexter couldn't go home after the huge embarrassment he received from Kelly. He still lingered around the hospital, hoping that Doctor Escobar would step outside so he could have a deep conversation with him. It was quite unlike Dexter. Gone were the days when Dexter usually walked out after any embarrassing situation. But this day, surprisingly, Dexter decided that he would stay back until he was allowed to speak with George, his Father.“Now I know what it feels like to be kicked away like a nobody. I did the same thing to Derek last night even when I shouldn't have. I guess he's feeling the same way right now,” Dexter said to himself as he regretted his actions towards Derek the previous night when Derek requested to speak with George. He had no idea that the same fate awaited him ahead. At that point, Dexter was tempted to apologize to Derek immediately.“Perhaps, I should go back home and end this torment. How long do I have to keep waiting to be granted access to my father's w

“I would definitely if Doctor Escobar comes knocking. There's absolutelyould leave him outside and you k, now that” Kelly ex, plained, trying to justify his reasons for shutting the door. Despite the departure of Dexter, Kelly still wasn't satisfied. Fear was written over his face. He had a bad feeling that Dexter might be hiding somewhere, waiting for someone to open the door before showing up unannounced.“Kelly? Can you please come forward? I want to have a word with you,” George called out in fatigue and went into a silent me. He completely lost his voice and strength to yell at Kelly. George recently underwent a serious heart operation the previous night. It may take a while before he returns to winning ways again. For that reason, he's trying his best not to get into a heated argument with anyone and that's precisely what Kelly is doing to him.“I sincerely don't want to engage in a heated argument with you. You know about my condition, don't you? Why are you making life dif

"What are you still doing here? You are the last person I expected to see at that hospital,” Kelly asked Dexter who was spotted at the reception with his head facing the ground. Dexter didn't say a word. It was difficult for Kelly to tell if Dexter ignored him or if the latter was just sleeping.“Hey, I am talking to you. Aren't you listening to me right now? Or do I have to repeat myself before you understand what I am talking about?” Kelly tapped Dexter on the shoulder to get the latter's attention.Lifting his head, Dexter mumbled in pain. “What do you want from me this time? Why can't you just let me have a moment of peace? Isn't it obvious that I don't want to speak to you or anyone right now? I just want to be left alone.”Dexter's eyes were reddish like a tomato. He sounded too calm, which was enough reason that he was sleeping and not ignoring Kelly. “I thought you went home last night? I had no idea you were still around the hospital. And why didn't you sleep inside your
