THE HEAT BETWEEN US Secret Medical History (1)
"Bro! You remembered me today? I thought you have found someone else to give your love to!" He said obviously grinning, and I smiled faintly, unable to laugh out loud. “Dude! Are you alright? He asked after a brief pause. “Where are you right now?” I asked instead. “At our usual place, bro!” “Alright, I am coming! Just give me five minutes!” I said, before driving off immediately. Seven minutes later, I arrived at our favourite bar. “Chester, my man! You are looking dashing as always, bro!” He said, giving me a handshake. “Thanks, man! So how have you been surviving?" I said with a smile, not wanting him to suspect anything. “I'm good, man! Just that you left me out of the fun" "Fun? What fun are you talking about? Not when I am working my ass off!” I said, and he laughed out loudly. “Sorry, man! Sometimes, I feel for ya!? So how is your new gorgeous employee doing?” He said and I suddenly felt a sharp jolt of pain in my heart.“Are you alright?” He asked to see me closing

I heard the distant voices of people talking. It seems like an echo, sounding closer to my hearing. Then, I had the dream I haven't dreamed of for more than twenty years now. She is still the same, smiling while covering the wound close to my heart region with a piece of headscarf. “Don't be afraid, it's gonna be okay, I am here for you, before you are being properly attended to!” It sounds so real! Her voice sounded so real to me. “Why did you leave me alone? Why did you break your promise of staying by my side?” I asked her but it seems she wasn't paying attention to me anymore. I was losing control of her, of the dream like always. Her face was becoming blurry, and I started crying. “Chester! Chester! Are you okay?” A distant voice keeps calling out while touching me gently. Slowly, I opened my eyes to see my mother sitting beside me on a bed that didn't feel right on my body. Her eyes were red and puffy. Looking around the strange room, I saw my dad, Daniel, and my sister s

Alright!” I said, trying to get off the bed. With my mom stubbornly insisting to assist me, we walked towards the private car park built only for VIPs, especially celebrities hiding from paparazzi. While Daniel was trying to open the car door for me to get in, I did a quick survey of the magnificent hospital with my eyes. It’s one of the corporations' hospitals, but this particular one belongs to my mother. “Alright son, do take care of yourself! Thanks Daniel!" My mom said, "It's nothing, mom!” Daniel replied before zooming off immediately. “Take me home, dude!” I said and he smiled. It seems he already knew what was in my mind. Still feeling dizzy and tired, I slept off. “Wake up man, we are at home already” He said, with a gentle tap on my shoulder. “Oh! That was quick!” I said before getting out of the car. Still feeling lightheaded, I lean against the car for a few seconds. “Welcome sir!” My housekeeper hurried out towards us. “Is it ready?” Daniel asked her, and she nodd

I arrived at the office very early, with red eyes, and dark circles. Quickly, I arranged the documents for today's meeting with the stakeholders. After which I ate what I carried along. “Good morning, sir!” I heard Andrus's voice. Quickly, I walked to his office, knocked twice and entered when I heard his voice. “Good morning, boss!” I said on getting in. “Good morning, Alexandria! Are the documents ready?” He asked calmly, and I wondered what got into his head this morning. Or maybe it's too early to be grumpy. “Yes, Boss! And the meeting is scheduled to be held in about two hours time” I said. “Wonderful! Alright, remind me in one hour thirty minutes!" "Yes, boss!" With that, I walked out. I saw the looks of surprise, and shock on the faces of the stakeholders the moment he stepped into the hall. Only for me to realize some seconds later, that it was because of the mask. Two hours-thirty minutes later, we were done and it was already time for pre-lunch break. “Miss Alexa

“Come join me!” I said, not bothered by what I did. “Nah! It's for you alone!” “Come on, Murphy!” I insisted, my mouth already filled with rice. “Alright!” With that he sat closer to me. “Alex, ain't you going out for pre-lunch? Oh! Mr Murphy is here?” Andrus smirks on seeing us eating together. I watched Murphy narrowed his eyes at Andrus, who swallowed hard, and then walked away without anymore words. “Why did you do that?” I asked, while taking a bite on the crispy fried chicken. “Did what, Milady?” “You scared him off with your eyes? Ain't you worried he might report you to the CEO? You are kind of breaking the company's rules about visitors. “Not on pre-lunch break hours! besides, he is my cousin and would do nothing!” He replied with a smirk. “Says the cousin to the nasty CEO!" I said without thinking, he paused to stare at me. “What?" "Why do you hate my cousin brother so much?" "Hate is a strong word! Nah! I don't hate it! But I don't like him either!” “And I am

“Let me get the report!” I said and she left immediately. Breathing out softly, I thought of how I can put an end to the other identity of mine. ******* The rest of the day went smoothly until closing hour, I saw her laughing at what Andrus said, and I suddenly felt like dragging her away from him, or put a slap on Andrus's running mouth. “Why does he like chatting with her? I hope it not what I am thinking?” I saw her suddenly laughing hard at whatever he is saying. Quickly, I entered the restroom in my office, and changed my clothes. After ensuring that they both went into her own office, I came out… “Murphy! You kept to your words!” She said, turning to my direction, while Andrus eyes opens wide in shock. “Why are you looking at him like that? Or, wait a minute! Are you the one that informed boss about his cousin's bost during pre-lunch break” She asked, and I turned to stare hard at Andrus. “Why will you think of a thing like that?" Andrus said, looking shocked at her acc

Listen, like i was saying earlier on, I am coming with someone. It's my new employee. I just want you to officially know her better. But the problem is, she doesn't know me as CEO Chester…!” And he quickly interrupted again. “What do you mean, man?" I could feel him frowning now. "What I mean is that, i am interacting with her with two identities. One as Murphy who she knows, and the other as Chester who she also knows but as her Boss!" I said, and he yelled out loudly. "What the hell is that, bro? What do you think you are doing?. Wait a minute? Are you in anyway wanting to date her?. Okay, this thought of mine is silly though, but are you in anyway falling for her?” He bombarded me with questions. “Yes…, i meant No..!, I just like her as a person!” I said, getting more confused at my own words. “You

“Murphy my man! How are you doing bro? Wow! You must be Alexandria? I have heard a lot about you! But Murphy never told me that you are more gorgeous than he described!” Daniel said with a smile while holding her hand. Mouthing my deep appreciation to him, I breathe out, deeply relieved of my anxiety. “He did? And he is just telling me about you!” She said, smiling at him. “Come sit Milady!” Daniel gillies her to one of the couches. “You are dutch too!” She said, already sitting down. “A dutch from my maternal side, and a Spanish from my paternal side!” He replied before pouring juice into a glass cup for her. And I wonder what has gotten into him acting super nice to her now. “Wow! What a great hierarchy you have got there!” She said sipping from the juice. “So how did you met my friend? You know he can act like a pear head sometimes!” He said, and he laughs softly. “Ladies first! So how did you became his bestfriend?” He say, andDaniel smiled widely. “Well.. I happened to re

I fell in love with the simple, yet elegant decorations. It made me feel a little bit at home.Ten minutes later, I was done. You look beautiful, ma'am!” Selena said after putting the final touch to my clipped bun-hairstyle.“Thank you!” I said while staring at the sea blue eyes gazing back at me from the dressing mirror. The emerald necklace compliment the black color off-shoulder styled lengthy gown. Suddenly someone knocked gently on the closed door.“Yes!” Quickly Selena went to check out the reason for the knock. Opening, and closing back the door swiftly, I couldn't tell who the person was.“Ma'am, It's time!” She rushed towards me while I stood up slowly. Holding my black color clutch sized purse, we both went downstairs, where he was already waiting for me.“I thought I said twenty minutes?” He said while checking his wristwatch, the moment he saw me. “Sorry I'm… .. late!” I paused on my words on seeing him dressed up in a simple white color totem-neck styled long sleeve swe

He can go on watching me without eating, while I finish off everything. Murphy did informed him well about my favorite dishes. Eating more of the noddles, and pork meat, I suddenly saw something shinny inside the broth of the noddles. Curiously, i picked it up with the chopsticks.

“I know it is possible for million of people to have the same eyes color, but how can they feel the same? The hidden warmth, and kindness behind the cold aura emitting from him, just like Murphy's” I thought inwardly while his eyes keeps trying draw me in, to trap me, and make me one with him. “Are you done?” He suddenly asked, and I jolt out of my thoughts. Swallowing my saliva back, I shifted uncomfortably in the seat before releasing the seat belt. “Yeah! Can we go in now?” I said, looking away from his face, feeling embarrassed. “Right after you, Milady!” He said with a soft chuckle, and I paused on my track. “Is there something you are not telling me?” I turned to look at him. “Humm…Something like what?” He asked, I saw those hints of fear in his eyes again. “I don't know! Maybe you should tell me about it!” I watched him nervously rubbing his palm against each other vigorously. “Tell you what, Alexis?” Listen dear, I am not hiding anything from you, okay! I wouldn't h

"Go on please!” “I won't be working with you at the company!
