I Married My Grumpy Patient! 41- VIDEOS & DECISIONS
"Here, drink it." Belene handed me a glass of water and I accepted it with trembling hands. We had arrived at her house a few moments ago and she was trying her best to calm me down. "I am sure that all of this is just a big misunderstanding." she coaxed softly. "Everything will be fixed soon," she added. I raised my head from where I had shoved it into my palms and locked eyes with Belene. "I could lose my license Belene. My entire life's work was thrown down the drain. Nothing. Nothing will ever be the same." I retorted and got up from the seat. I breathed and felt tears sting my eyes all over again. I felt stupid. How could I have ever thought that he would trust me and choose me over his father? It wasn't him that had the misunderstanding. I was under the misconception that someone like Alexander Moore could trust me. Christine's disappearance made no sense too. She was so happy when I left, we had even made plans. She was so excited about the trip. When she had called with th

"I don't know what you are thinking, but I know it is a bad idea." Belene deadpanned and I rolled my eyes at her pessimism. "You don't have to crack your head too much. I am going to break the contract and reveal the truth to everyone, I won't lose my career because of Moore and his misunderstandings. I am not Louisa." I explained sharply and Belene's eyes widened in horror. "No, no. No!" She rushed out. "Before you do this, at least think about Christine, she brought you to help her brother, she will be broken if she finds out the truth and his mother. What about Madame Amelia? She will be devastated. She's like a mother to you, right?" Belene rushed out in one breath. "He didn't think about them when he released those photos so why should I think about them? Besides, he already has plans of his own. I do not fit into this picture Belene." I explained sharply. "No!" Belene protested. "Both of you are hurt right now and that's why you are making so many bad decisions! Two wrongs w

"Amber, I just think that—" Belene began, but stopped the moment she saw my glare. I walked past her to take a shower and prepare myself for the storm that was about to take place, the last thing I wanted was to be caught unaware. "Let's at least think about this—" She tried again and that was the moment I snapped. "Whose friend are you?" I spat and raised an eyebrow at her. Since the entire situation began, she had done nothing but support Alex. It was almost like she was his best friend and I was just a nobody to her. "Do you think I deserve everything that has happened, Belene?" I asked in a sharp tone and she shook her head with tear-filled eyes. Although it seemed like I had myself prepared and I knew exactly what I wanted to do; I had no clue. I was just fueled by the anger and frustration that Alexander had put me through. Deep down, even I refused to believe that he would go this far. It would have been one thing if my real name was not written boldly on the document, but

I tugged at the scarf that Belene had given me before I entered the hospital. Her contact informed us about the blueprint of the hospital. I found it hard to believe that the man knew so much and for a moment, it felt like I was in some action movie. I casually strolled down the hall and towards where I hoped the restroom of the hospital would be, my face was covered so no one could identify me. A group of doctors raced past me and I sighed. I hated hospitals. The thick smell of antiseptic. The depressing atmosphere and the fact that I usually never left the same way I walked in. The sound of groaning filled my ears and I froze. I glanced around but it was just me in the empty hallway. The edges of my lips curled downwards and sighed. I was probably just hearing things due to stress. I took a few steps through and the sound continued. It sounded like struggling. I decided to follow the sound even though it was situations like these always landed me in trouble with Alexander. My ey

I brushed past Moore and briskly walked down the hall. I bopped heads with someone and stumbled back a bit. I frowned when my eyes locked with brown orbs and long dark hair."What are you doing here?" Marissa spat and glared daggers into my skin."How's that your business?" I shot back and matched her gaze. She was dressed in another skin-tight gown and had her hair loose. It was obvious she didn't care about Christine, she was just there to get her final shot at what would end as a pathetic relationship with Alexander."I could get you arrested right now." She threatened and sucked in a sharp breath. "For what?" I snorted. "Crashing your little party?" I responded in a sarcastic tone. "You just broke a restraining order by being here. So I suggest you leave. Get out of this place and out of our lives! I mean, you have no shame!" She spat and eyed me down. "Am I getting a lecture from My husband's mistress?" I scoffed. "I have to say. you had me there for a minute." I deadpanned an

I banged my head on the bathroom wall. The water that was hitting my skin washed away the years that filled my green orbs. My eyes had dark circles under them and I felt my legs go numb under the cold water. We arrived at Belene's house two hours ago. She was still upset about my actions but I just wish she could understand that I was tired. I stared into the mirror myself and I didn't like the version of myself that I saw.It felt like something inside of me had broken. The Amber in front of me was not the same person who had fought the entire world to chase her career. She was not the same woman who knew exactly what she wanted. A disheveled twenty-five-year-old stared back at me and she looked a lot like the sixteen-year-old who was crushed by her father's death and brother's demise. I wrapped my arms around my stomach and slid down the bathroom wall. I shut my eyes and allowed myself to feel the pain that was spreading all over my body. It felt like my heart was going to explod

The atmosphere in the airport had suddenly gotten stale. My eyes filled with tears and I clutched my luggage with my trembling fingers. I wasn't sure why I was so upset about the situation. Maybe was because once again; I felt like I being an obligated and forced to do and be around people who had just hurt me. "I am not part of that family." I deadpanned and a tear rolled down my cheek because it was true. I had gotten carried away. I thought that sharing bonds with people made you family. But I was a fool and I was by the affection that was not even there. I fell in love with the job and now, I was suffering for my mistakes. "Christine is not to blame for the issues you have with Alex though," Lucia said and my face contorted in pain. "I am not going back there! I am not going—going back to a place where I was hurt and treated like crap!" I shot at her. "That family took everything away from me," I informed her and paused. "I didn't even have much, to begin with! So don't you c

“How are they involved in this?” I asked in a calm tone. Lucia was being too vague about everything. She sighed and took a step closer to me. “Marissa was the one who released those photos to the press—”“How did Marissa get those photos, though?” I asked and Lucia was taken aback by my work. Her eyes stared at me with confusion, it was almost as if she had not expected me to ask the obvious question. She licked her lips and sighed again. “From Alexander,” she announced in a dejected tone. “Alexander,” I repeated. “Why should I support someone willing to do that to his fiance who died a year ago? He put her in that situation. It doesn’t matter that I am not Louisa or Marissa is a piece of crap.” I paused and glanced away to control my emotions.“You know what matters?” My voice was low, but it still held as much authority as it had when we began the conversation. “That Alexander Moore would stoop low enough to hand Louisa’s sensitive photos to her worst enemy.” “Amber, Alex trusts

I Married My Grumpy Patient! 163- FINALE
EIGHTEEN YEARS LATER "Mom, do you think I'll do well today?" George asked, a touch of nervousness in his voice. I paused in adjusting the collar of his soccer jersey and turned around to look at him and myself in the mirror. I understood where his fears came from. George had a crucial tournament to play in, and he was the star player of his team. That came with a lot of expectations from people, which put a lot of responsibilities on his eighteen-year-old shoulders. I smiled warmly at him, making sure he saw years of love and support in my eyes that weren't going away for any reason. "You've trained hard, George. You'll go out there and give it your all. No matter the outcome, your father and I will always be proud of you." He grinned. "Thanks, Mom," he gave me a hasty kiss on the cheek and sat on the bed to put on his boots. The pride in my heart swelled as I watched him tie his shoelaces. "Hey Mom, how long does it take Dad to retrieve my soccer jacket? I'm almost finished
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 162- OUR LITTLE GEORGE
"Hey...you okay?" Moore asked softly, his eyebrows furrowed in concern. "I'm fine. I guess the spin on the beach has me a little dizzy. But I loved it." Soft sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a warm bluish glow in the room. I sat on our bed, resting my back on a pile of pillows Moore had earlier stacked against the headboard. Moore lay beside me. His arms surrounded my swollen belly protectively, and his fingers made circular ticklish patterns. They made me giggle. We marveled at the miracle growing within me. Our baby, our little bundle of joy. "George is going to be such a lucky child," Moore's s voice held awe and tenderness. We had talked about naming him and agreed to name him George after my father. "And you, my love, will be an amazing mother. And you're an amazing psychologist. What do you think about practicing again after George is born?" I let out a soft sigh in agreement, but a hint of uncertainty lingered in my eyes. "I don't know, Moore. Pract
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 161- MAKE ME FEEL ALIVE
"Come on up, Amber. We have to head home." He rose and held out his hand towards me. I shook my head. "I can manage. You go and start the car. Get it running. I just need a moment to breathe," I uttered. I could barely recognize my voice. It was rusty, and I felt pains in the back of my throat when I spoke. Scrambling to my feet, I sighed. "Well. This is it. I'm only leaving this place, but you're forever in my heart." The scorching desert sun bore down on my weary shoulders as I stumbled towards the car. The weight of grief still sat heavy in my chest. All I wanted to do was escape the suffocating air of this wilderness. As I neared the car, my vision blurred, and the world around me swirled into an incoherent mess of colors. Darkness crept in, swallowing my consciousness, and I crumpled to the ground. "Amber!" I heard Moore's panicked cry a distance away, and the shuffling of his footfalls as he rushed to my side to gather my fragile form into his arms. "Amber, Amber are
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 160- YOU AND ME, FOREVER
"No, Moore," I replied, my voice heavy with determination. "She's cost me too much. We did the same with Louisa, and she only escaped. I won't let Alicia slip through our fingers again." "Amber, we will make sure the police do their job well if that's what you're afraid of. But we can't take the laws into our hands just like that. Let's follow due processes," Moore's voice pleaded with me from the driver's seat, his words laced with reason and the hope for justice. He tried to convince me that we should turn Alicia over to the police, and let them handle the consequences of her actions. But I couldn't bring myself to comply. Not this time. The weight of our past, the pain Alicia had inflicted upon me, resurfaced with every word. Forgiveness and love had always been one-sided, a futile attempt on my part to salvage what was lost. Now, it was time for me to take control of my destiny. And that will begin by making sure that nobody, starting with Alicia, could ever hurt me or my love
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 159- LET US START AGAIN, FAR WAY.
Moore was quiet. I couldn't blame him. My heart was too heavy, and what I was feeling could not be expressed in words. But his care, concern, and need to make me feel better warmed my heart. The door swung open, and the person responsible for our abduction finally stepped into the room. "It's about time you showed yourself, coward," Moore bit out at the approaching figure who didn't spare him a glance. She was focused on me. My heart skipped a beat as my eyes locked with familiar orbs. No way. This could not be. But it was: Alicia, my step-sister. The one who had torn our family and separated me from Moore all those years ago. The mix of anger and fear welled up inside me, but I held my ground, refusing to show any sign of weakness. "Well, well, well! We meet again, sister," she sneered and cackled, swinging a silver Swiss Army paring knife. I was sorely tempted to scream at her and wipe that smirk off her face, but I pulled myself together. Don't give her satisfaction. Alic
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 158- I HATE THIS. ALL OF IT
Mum and Christie… They were dead. How? Why? My heart pounded and a pool of tears found its way to the back of my eyes. They threatened to pour as I stared at Moore hastily driving towards the house. The tires screeched and he drove past other cars. With the way he drove, every other person could tell it was an emergency — an emergency because I needed to see him. I wasn't able to believe it. No, my dreaded thoughts couldn't have come to reality. Mum and Christie couldn't be dead. I'm sure the call was a prank call. I was excited yesterday — I was problem-free. It couldn't have happened. My Christie will be safe. But then it rang in my head again. If Christie was in danger, then it was my fault. I was probably the worst mother on earth. We left France in the morning. We took the next flight back here. I needed to be sure the call was fake; I needed Mum and Christie here with me. Thankfully, Moore's car came to a halt in our compound and I rushed out. I picked up my heels
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 157- THEY ARE DEAD...
I exhaled as I held onto the luggage. After Mum eavesdropped on the conversation, she offered to protect Christie. She insisted Moore and I went on a honeymoon A weird feeling tugged at my chest and worry filled my heart. Dreadful images filled my brain as I thought of it. Is it safe to leave Christie alone? I shut my eyes as I pondered on it. Of course, it was, my prolactin hormone was just at work. Christie will be safe. "Amber," Moore called and I opened my eyes. He gave me a warm smile and took the luggage from me while I turned to Christie. After this, I will make sure I get to spend time with her. "Christie" I called and bent down to her level. We were in front of the building about to leave but I had to make sure I talked to her. "Be fine, okay? Mum will come back soon. Take care okay?" Her giggle filled my ears and she pulled me into a hug which I reciprocated. I broke the hug and peppered her face with kisses which made her chortle. She was indeed a sweetheart! "Bye M
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 156- I WILL PROTECT HER.
My chest fell and rose as I watched the police take Louisa. I couldn't believe she had escaped from the prison. I knew she wanted to harm me, she was desperate to cause me pain but I didn't expect her to break away from prison."No, you just can't —" Louisa's protest was cut short when the officers grabbed her arm as they led her to the van. The officer turned to me and I bit hard on my lip.My thoughts had begun to wander off. Will it keep happening over and over again? Did I deserve no peace? Why did Louisa cause me pain on things I didn't know about?I couldn't understand it. I whipped my head to Moore when I felt his soothing touch that caused my heart to pound. He pressed my hand softly and I looked up at him.His eyes held the warmest and softest expression I could read; I could read the hope and pain that hid behind his lids."Stop it. Stop it, Moore, you can't keep touching her that way. I hate it!" Louisa yelled as her eyes bore holes into my skin. Veins popped out on her for
I Married My Grumpy Patient! 155- I BEG YOU.
I sucked in a sharp breath, the pressure pressed down on my neck made it hard for me to even breathe. My head was pressed back hard against the pillow beneath as the figure above me pressed down even harder than before.The darkness made it impossible for me to see who it was, I only felt cold palms grasped at my throat. My eyes flew open in both shock and panic, small ragged gasps escaped my throat as I felt the air start to leave me. My heart, once quickly beating slowed in tempo and my eyes widened in desperation.No, I couldn't die. I can't die just yet — at least not in this way. I couldn't let them kill me like this.Small coughs erupted from my lips, I wheezed, now desperate to survive, and used my last bit of strength to scream for help as I pushed the figure back with all my might.My push made the figure fall to the ground and I used that opportunity to reach for my light lamp as I coughed painfully, and gasped greedily for breath. The lamp came on, its light wasn't bright b
