Teach Me CHAPTER 40
“Mike knows?” Hannah asked me after I told her the whole story about me leaving and why.“No. I think. I don't care.” I said too quickly.“Jessica, please. You can't lie.” Hannah rolled her eyes and I sighed.“Why didn't you tell him? He has a right to know…” George said wanting to be part of our conversation.“Right to know?” Hannah looked at George angrily and he backed off.“Sorry. I just…” George started explaining but I interrupted him.“It's fine George. He will know when I won't be on Latin class next week.” I said quietly.“Do you miss him?” Hannah asked calmly. I sighed deeply and I stayed quiet for a while.“No. I don't miss him, I miss how he made me feel sometimes…” I said quietly…“Yea, when he didn’t lie.” Hannah rolled her eyes. I nodded and looked the other way.“What about that other guy, umm, John?” George asked.“I didn't heard from him since he left me her

“Mike, what the hell are you doing?!” I asked him slowly, yet firmly.“I am just making sure you will stay mine.” Mike smiled huskily. I looked at him slightly nervously, not knowing how to react or where to look! Everyone at the Oliver's Lounge looked at us, smiled, some of them whispered something, we were in the centre of attention!He took me by my hand and made me stood up. I was breathing heavily, my heart was beating very loudly and trippingly, I even think my hand was sweaty!“Jessica. Firstly, calm down.” Mike said calmly. I took a big breath, closed my eyes and, blew the whole air out of my lungs, and opened my eyes again. When I opened them, I saw Mike's smile. I smiled too, feeling a little bit relaxed then I was. “Secondly, I am not proposing you.” Mike added, winking. “Yet.” He smiled huskily, and that made me blushed!He gave me a small box, and when I took it, I pressed it tightly. I was eager to find out what is in there
Teach Me CHAPTER 42
“Why won't you tell me what the surprise is about?” I begged Mike to tell me something about my surprise, but he kept quiet about it when we were driving to my apartment. “Chill, you will see!” Mike said, smiling. I was getting more and more nervous every second, not knowing what should I expect in a few minutes.“Fine!” I said angrily. Mike smiled lightly, and then touched my leg gently. I looked at him but he was looking the road, acting like his move was simply casual. The thing is, I don't know how to act now. Yesterday, we had a best time, we woke up together, we ate together, he's holding my leg while he's driving… Where do this all go? Are we together again? How can I ask him and not ruin this moments? “We are here.” Mike said quietly after he parked his car in front of my building. He leaned towards me, giving me a kiss on my cheek. “Are you excited?” He asked gently.“Nervous.” I said weakly. He grabbed my chin lightly and lif

Teach Me CHAPTER 43
MARRY ME -SYNOPSIS-"Hey Seattle." I said after I came home after 3 years from Cairo. Seattle Tacoma Airport welcomed me with his new coffee machine at the entrance, giving me that well-known smell of my home. I miss my morning coffee.I've changed a lot. I started putting make-up on my face, I started dressing classier. Although I had to study a lot, I had to attend a bunch of business meetings with my dad for his company. I never thought I will be someone who has more dresses in her closet than jeans or tracksuits!Nevertheless, my feelings towards people here in Seattle hasn't changed. I've put a lot of thinking into this, but I finally decided for my residency to be Pediatrics. In Africa, 90% of my work was on those poor kids who suffered a lot, who experienced heavy trauma. I decided Pediatrics because children are always honest, they have a pure heart, and most importantly, I just can't stand to see a sm

"Calm down! I don't know what is happening either but I am sure they two-" George started but I interrupted him."Nothing between them? So why in the hell is he with her on a date when his girlfriend arrived home after 3 years?!" I raised my voice, feeling angry and dissapinted at the same time.What in the hell is going on?"Jessica. Not a date. Dinner." George said trying to reassure me."Date." Hannah said nonchalantly. She sat down, and George sat down too. I stood there, not knowing what to think. I know last time we talked we had a fight but we didn't break up. Or did we? "Call him." George suggested."Surprise him." Hannah added.I sat down too, thinking. Should I call him? Should I be worried? He is cheating on you!My consience spoke and I had to shook my head, not approving this. Hannah looked at me in disbelief, not knowing what to say to reassure me. Without saying anything, I grabbed my black Armani bag, yes I still have that, and I took out my phone. I looked at Georg
Teach Me CHAPTER 45
"John?" I aksed nervously."You came back?" He asked with shaky voice. I was surprised he called so I was left speechless, I had no words."Umm... Yea..." I tried to talk normal, I tried to mumble, still not knowing how to react on this call. I haven't heard his voice since forever! I felt frustration and tingling sensation throughout my whole body. I couldn't believe I was so shook by his call."Are you free tonight?" He asked barely audible, and his voice was shaking almost visibly."I am now." I said quickly. Too quickly, I think. I closed my eyes, trying to mind-slap my forehead. How can I be so stupid! I was shaking my head and Hannah looked at me nervously. Until I sat there waiting for John's responce, I whispered his name to her. She opened her eyes widely and George covered his mouth in surprise. I nodded weakly, still confused by his call like George and Hannah were."That coffee shop across your apartment? In 10 minutes?" He finally spoke. "Sure." I said too quickly again
Teach Me CHAPTER 46
"So, how it went?" Hannah asked me as we were driving to hospital. It was my first day of work here and I am both excited and scared I will mess something up. Knowing me, I will. I was quiet. I wasn't going to answer Hannah's question because her question is refering to last night. My meeting with John. After the most awkward coffee I ever had, I came home so confused, looking exhausted as hell just like I always look like when meeting John. Why? After meeting him, my past and my present, even my future depends on what is he going to say. I never thought I will be so weak in front of someone who hurted me so much!"You know, eventually, you will have to speak you know?" Hannah said sarcastically. I let the biggest sigh out, letting all air out of my lungs and closed my eyes."I don't want to..." I almost started crying as I felt tears in my eyes. "I am at the very start like I was when I left Seattle. I though everything will be so... Different you know?" I said sadly. "Mike was lyin

"What the hell?" Hannah repeated herself because we ignored her the first time."What are you doing here?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes, still ignoring Hannah."Well, since you're not answering me, I came to make sure my girlfriend is still alive." Mike said coldly, clenching his jaw."As you see, I am so..." Filled with anger, I rolled my eyes."Can we talk?" He asked, slowly yet strongly grabbing my arm. I flinched, feeling pain. Hannah was just standing there, confused as she can be."Not a place or time Mike." I said firmly but I was visibly scared and that annoyed me. I shouldn't be afraid of him, I don't have a reason for that. Right?"Something happened?" He asked me, now looking genuinely concerned and confused. Then it hit me. He doesn't have a clue that I overheard his conversation. How could I be so stupid and let my emotions get the best of me?"We will talk later okay?" I said as my face softened. He looked at me, one eyebrow up, still mad. He growled under his voice an

"Sleepyhead..." I heard a soft voice near me. Air smelled like our toothpaste and mix of herbs from Hannah's shampoo. Although I smiled lightly, knowing it was her, I still didn't want to wake up."Nooo..." I whined and turned on the other side. Hannah smiled and leaned on me, sighing deeply."When did you even got home last night?" She asked, still on my body. I moaned, not happy with that. "I know what will make you got up." She said, slowly getting up. I moaned again, feeling lighter and relieved that I can just roll over on the other side of my bed, completely ignoring her. Realizing it wasn't the smartest move as she grabbed my legs and started pulling me out, I started laughing."Stoooop, leave me in peace!" I managed to mumble as she continued to pull me up. I tried to budge but I couldn't. How the hell is she so strong?!"I got engaged!" Hannah exclaimed, finally letting me go."What?!" I lifted my head so rapidly, the whole room started spinning! She was screaming and jumping
Teach Me CHAPTER 81
My head was at the verge of blowing up like the ones in cartoons. There was too much information I needed to cope, too deafening sounds, everything was spinning. Me, the room, everything! I felt numb and over-touched, cranky, mad, all feelings you could think of and none of them in the same time. I didn't even knew until now that that's possible.My shift ended vaguely, honestly I'm happy I didn't kill anybody! All I could think is how I will eventually go home and tell Hannah everything what was heavy on my crazy noggin.Darla didn't say anything for the rest of our shift. I could only imagine what's in her head now, poor girl...I got a text from Hannah asking if I'm ready for our date night. I was more then ready but I wanted to do one more thing before I head home."Hi you..." John's head lifted up when he saw me entering his room. "Did I woke you up?" I asked, carefully closing the door. I stood by them as my legs wouldn't let me come closer to him for some reason."I won't bite

"What the hell is going on?!" I yelled a little bit louder than I expected. Few doctors that was passing by with patients looked at me concerned. I brushed it off. Soon enough, my mom will hear about this, but I can't deal with this now."Dr.Miller." Veronica called my name in so calming voice, my anger vanished in thin air. I slowly turned around. She looked at me, smiling acidly, slightly tilting her head."I'm sorry." I said to her. She didn't say anything, she just shrugged her shoulders and smiled. I felt bad for not knowing how to control. "Let's continue this in my office, shall we?" I asked, faking a smile and politeness so we don't draw any more attention. I felt eyes all over me as patients and hospital staff were suddenly walking slowly, trying to catch a glimpse of our conversation. Miller's daughter causing the drama. Big news. Darla and Delia both started walking behind me as I tried to go into my office as soon as possible. My head was spinning really fast and I felt l

"She is fine!" Mr.Bhat said after he stopped hugging us. "She is fine thanks to you doctor Miller and you doctor Care." He said, closing his palms and bowing to us. Ann's surname is Care? Why does that sounds familiar? I quickly brushed off that for now, I can't be dealing with that too. I smiled politely to Mr.Bhat, bowing to him, as he did to us."You don't have to thank us for that Mr.Bhat, we did our best." I said firmly. I was so proud of myself, so fulfilled, so good about myself! We saved that girl's life! "She is sleeping now." Mr.Bhat said, approaching Ada's bed. He slowly and gently caressed her hair and smiled. He looked peaceful. "You don't need to wake her up, we will just do a little checkup." I said as I grabbed a pen out of my uniform. I checked her temperature, it was 36.6 Celsius which is quite normal. Excellent."She may feel dizzy or groggy as she come around from general anaesthetic." I said to him, caressing her hand. "We will check her blood pressure regularly.

"I'm sorry I'm late." Darla quickly came beside me after Dr.Stepford and me started walking towards Nina's room. I rolled my eyes when I looked at her but I didn't want to say anything."Dr.Miller?" Dr.Stepford raised his glasses while we walked and looked me dead serious. "Are you going to let your intern be late?" He smirked. "I want 20 pages on AIDS research. By tomorrow morning." I stated seriously. Dr.Stepford chuckle a bit, sounding like a teenage girl. I bet he was amused by this as he probably remembered some of my mom's situation again and how much I do look like her. I smiled to myself and I was proud how I quickly got an idea for Darla's punishment but I put on my straight face instantly. Darla didn't say anything, she was probably too scared.I promise I won't be so hard on her once she toughen up a bit. She can't be soft, not on Pediatric, let alone Pediatric surgery. In Africa, I had a resident who was so strict, my hair would go up when I remember her. But she was fair
Teach Me CHAPTER 77
We kept walking until she stopped us in front of the door, right next to John's room. What is her plan? We will easdrop? I hope not! Hannah looked at both directions and slowly opened the door in front of us. I was confused."What are you doing?" I whispered to Hannah, hoping she will hear me. She just smiled and continue with her plan. We entered a patient's room, an old lady seemed to be sleeping. I looked puzzled as I was looking around her room, trying to figure out Hannah's thoughts. Hannah turned over to me and rolled her eyes."This is Elenore. She is in a coma. Come." She said that bluntly, like we do that on our daily basis, like this, whatever this is is normal."Hannah." I exclaimed quietly, yet strongly enough for her to stop. She looked at me again, now confused like I'm the one who's crazy. I couldn't help but smile."She won't hear us, what?!" She asked, opening her arms towards me in isn't-it-obvious way. I shook my head and smiled. I might just let go all my question
Teach Me CHAPTER 76
I went to the park. I managed to stay calm and cool long enough so I can walk and sit ona n empty bench. I felt exhausted. I felt really worned out for some reason like all my energy went somewhere else. I started feeling nauseated. Why? I don't even know what I heard! Did Mike and his Gorilla killed someone? At least tried to?! I shook my head in disbelief because I just knew, all of this sounds so ridiculous and unreal. I tried to comprehend all of that information. That can't be right, I heard something wrong and I made some scenario in my head, I surely misheard."You are being stupid, Jess." I said barely audible to myself. I was looking around me as I tried to calm my nerves. There was just a few people in the park but the weather was nice. Small, sweet breeze was calmly blowing making leaves do a little song of their own. That calmed my mind a little. I noticed small children and I heard their giggles while they run towards their parents. That made me smile! I started feeling

I did it again. I gave in. I have managed to disappoint me one more time. How can I be so weak, just how many times I have to hurt myself with what is so wrong yet it feels so damn good?"Sex isn't supposed to be an answer." I said after I buttoned up the last button on my shirt. He was already done."I know." He simply said, repairing his Rolex."So why are we doing that?" I asked, sitting down. "Do what? I want you. Isn't that enough?" He looked at me puzzled. I was stunned by the fact that he doesn't seem to see the real problem is. "No, Mike. Sometimes it's not." I said standing up. Why am I suddenly feel angry? I am to blame here, I let him manipulate me one more time. He just used that so well! "What is your problem Jessica?" He exclaimed. I backed off a little. "What do you want?" He raised his voice. I narrowed my eyes and sighed deeply. To be honest, I don't know what I want. "I want you. But not just sex. I want the whole package! Conversation, going on a trip, go to par
