BROKEN ANGEL

Mr DUMPED

MOIRA'S POV

"Rise and shine, we give him all the glory glory... good morning Ira baby".

"Good morning Jake, so you are a t****k addict too like me hah?"

"unapologetically yes, like, who doesn't love funny videos,cute babies, murder mysteries and grown ass men making fool of themselves while having fun.Some times I just decide to open that app for two minutes but five hours later,am still there.For instant, today morning,I just wanted to check time but then I was in there since four in the morning.And that's where I heard that song and I decided to wake the sweet you with it. Look I brought you breakfast,an apple to keep the doctor away,milk,an egg,and three slices of white bread with peanut butter,hope you like it".

"Thank you Jake for this, you didn't have to,as you can see am already awake and dressed up for my first day at work, I would have come down to eat, but since you are have taken the trouble of bringing it to my room, I'll eat it from here,thank you so much charming,you are so sweet".

"You are welcome princess,I actually did this because I wanted to talk to you about something, something called your nightmares,I know am only a children's psychiatrist, but I just want you to know that if you need anyone to talk to, I am here to listen Moira, I can help where I can".

It's been a week since we got here, we didn't immediately start our internship at the hospital, because Professor wanted us to relax and get used to the place.We spent our days in the beach,in the garden,at Mr dumped's restaurant,or just at home.We call Davi Mr dumped because Gina and I couldn't understand why he abandoned his job,for three long months just because his ex left him for another guy, maybe it's because we've never been in love ourselves,so we couldn't understand where he was coming from.There was an incident where we went to the hospital just to see the place and we bumped into her there.She was there to see the gynaecologist since she was nine weeks pregnant, and Davi looked so shocked that she was already pregnant after three months of marriage.I didn't see the problem with that, but Davi, he talked about it all day.He must have really loved her, but then,it is what it is, and he should have already moved on with his life.Anyway, since we came here, every single night, I have had nightmares of that day to the point where Gina slept in my bed every night.I don't know if darkness triggers that memory, because as soon has I close my eyes to sleep it comes.I know everyone is worried about me, I just don't know how to control it.So every night,I have to wake up crying, and Gina calms me down and puts me back to sleep and then it won't happen again.

The look of concern was written allover Jake's face but I couldn't bring myself to tell him the cause of my nightmares, with his dad, it was different because he had his observations and ideas of what exactly happened to me, but with Jake,am just not ready yet.

"Jake am.. actually...I..."

"Moira stop fidgeting, it's okay if you don't want to tell me,I know, we have only known each other for a week, and maybe you are not comfortable telling me anything, but I want you to know that you have a friend in me,am always here for you anytime, okay,and I can also be your big brother like Davi".

"Thank you Jake for understanding, when am ready,I will tell you, right now,I just want to forget the issue so that I can sleep peacefully at night".

"Tell you what, when my mom died, I was do depressed and broken that my dad sent me to therapy for six straight months.I was only ten back then, Davi was twelve,but he seemed to be holding up just fine,but,me,I couldn't seem to take the picture of her in her death bed,or the way I saw her in the coffin,I used to wake up at night screaming everyday.So my dad decided that Davi, myself and him would share the same room.And since it was also my mom's deathbed, we changed it, from the furniture,to the colour of the walls, even the position of the bed was changed,we changed everything such that,it wasn't the way mom had left it, and then dad encouraged us to talk more about anything, keep ourselves occupied has much has possible, and little by little, I came to terms with the fact that mom is never coming back.During, that time, Davi and I had developed an habit of making fun of each other, teasing each other and staff, so whenever I feel gloomy, I just do that,and seeing him laugh about it, just makes me feel better."

"Am really sorry for what you guys went through, it must have been very hard for you guys, but you are strong,you got through it very well,so congratulations".

"Thank you Ira baby,I hope you don't mind me calling you that I just find it cute?"

"No, it's okay Jake, you can call me whatever you want,as long as it's cute".

"so from today, you are my Ira baby, and you are also very strong,I know whatever you are going through right now, you will get over it,I believe in you, okay, just find yourself a distraction, tell me what do you love doing the most?"

"Singing, reading, cooking sometimes...".

"So do that, keep your self busy as possible and make sure you are not thinking about what is eating you up inside okay"

"Okay,and thank you Jake for understanding me, and I'll try to follow your advice, doctor".

"You are welcome too doc, actually Ira baby, I also have something else to confess to you, simply because my best friend is my journal, and I can't tell Davi he would tease me about it forever".

"So you too keep a journal?".

"Yes ma'am I do, sometimes I just don't want to talk to anyone so I just write it down, do you also keep a journal".

"Yeah, since ten.Before I met Gina I had no friends really, so my journal was my best friend".

"Talking about Regina, how did you two meet, you know you can pass for twins anytime anyday".

"Yeah,we hear that alot and I never understand why, because I think we are two very different people with different personalities.My chumchum and I met in a rather funny way I would say".

"Tell me about it, we still have like fifty minutes before we go to work".

"So,it was on a weekend, I had lied to my mom I was going out with one of my cousins, but in the truth, I was going to a restaurant to meet a guy I had been talking to for months and never met, so I walk in to the restaurant he told me to meet him in,grab a sit and ordered some juice, after ten minutes of waiting, another girl dressed up in the same dress has me, same color, everything, walks in nervously ,and when she sees me, she comes to my table, and after talking for a while we realized we were there to do the same thing.And then, this jerk walks in comes out our table, and he is like,"so my future girlfriend and sneaky link have already met hah,work made easier"?".

"Please tell me you slapped him".

"Gina did, and I threw my drink to his smiling face and we walked out of the restaurant, laughed about, hugged each other, and that's how we became besties".

"Wow, that was one epic meeting, and so you guys just decided to join the same Uni?".

"Actually, we also went to the same highschool, it's just that we never met.After meeting Gina, afew months later my grandpa Rob died so my Mom said we should move out of grandpa's mansion, and we bought a new house which was afew blocks away from Gina's home, and the University was just a walk away from home, so we chose to go there, just so we could be home daily".

"Am sorry about your grandfather,I also lost mine a year after mom died, grand ma is still alive and kicking".

"Ooh, I never got to meet, my grandma,she died after giving birth to my bachelor uncle Don.so enough of dead people, what did you want to tell me".

"First promise that from today, you and I besties".

"okay.. from today Jacob Jefferson is my bestie,I solemnly swear".

"okay, so here is the thing,am...mhhh... actually...I..am..I have a crush on Gina, I know it's only been a week since we met, but yes, I have a crush on her".

"Okay, that's good news, but shouldn't you be telling her?".

"I know, but it's only been a week so, I don't think she would be comfortable with it,I just want to take it slow, so am kinda asking for permission here".

"Permission, for what, and why is it from me".

"aaah, so Ira baby, would you let me go out with your chumchum".

"Under one condition, you buy me icecream everyday till she says yes".

"Only that?".

"Yes sir, only that, when you want to know or ask something, bring icecream with you".

"Okay ma'am I gat you, so since I brought you to breakfast in bed, tell me something she likes in men".

"She likes her men well dressed, and smelling nice twenty four seven, even when you are sweaty".

"Okay I can do that, I always do".

"But don't forget, she is hard to impress,and a hard nut to c***k".

"Okay, I'll keep that in mind,thank you bestie".

"you are welcome, now come on, we have patients waiting".

"Okay let's go".
