Hidden Hybrid Angel

~ Chapter Nine ~

"I'm sorry," Eric said and after left which made me confused.

What's wrong with him today? I'm sure I didn't do anything to make him act like that, but it seemed like he has a deep problem inside that he doesn't wanna talk about because he looked so down and problematic.

I think I should talk to him later.

Entering the operating room I thought I was really going to see my last patient but to my dismay, I saw Daniel sitting in the mattress looking at me. I rolled my eyes to my annoyance and immediately turned back to honestly leave but Daniel quickly moves to stop me from opening the door.

"What do you want?!" I hissed which he uneasily moves away from me.

"We need to talk Andrea." He says.

I shook my head from his nonsense intention, does he really think that I will talk to him that easy after our breakup? I can't believe he has the nerve to do things like this, I mean I am trying to move on because I know there is no point of getting back together after he cheated.

"You should leave Daniel, I don't have time for this."

"Andrea I know I made a mistake once and can you not really forgive me?"

I can't believe how he can actually say this kind of words to me. I mean so he thinks that I should forgive him because he had only done it the first time?!

What an i***t.

"What an incredible excuse Daniel,"

"Andrea."

"Let us say that yes you only made a mistake once but that doesn't mean you will not do it twice." I spat out.

"No that is not what I mean-"

"I don't care! You cheated at me and that is final! I don't want to crawl back to your side again Daniel it's enough that I sacrificed a lot just to make things work in our relationship." I pointed out clear almost crying because of myself being emotional and broken.

However, Daniel embraced me in his arms as I felt a wet hot liquid in my lab gown. I don't want to really think that he's crying over me because I might feel wretched and easily forgive him.

"Andrea please don't leave, I know I am so stupid but please give me another chance, I promise I will make things better after." He pleaded but I pulled away and touched his face to tell him clearly that...

"Trust me, Daniel, I don't know why I feel this but I think we should move on starting today," I said looking both into his deep blue eyes and after left him there.

As I walk into the empty hallway I can't help but let my feelings out and cried. It didn't matter if someones see me because my heart took long enough to be strong and cover the pain I felt while talking to Daniel.

God knows it was so hard for me to let go of him but I think it was best for both of us to continue our lives separated. He will be then free to choose the path of his life without me taking control. I knew I made me commit that much that's why he led himself to cheat.

"I love you so much but I had to let go," I whispered to myself.

I was about to open the door in my office when a handkerchief was offered to me by Eric. I don't know if I should feel embarrassed or not because Eric was always there whenever I let myself cry over Daniel.

"Get your things I'll take you out." He said which I refused.

"It's alright I'll be okay after." I lied but the weirdest thing is that he figured it out.

"You're lying." He said.

I shut my mouth closed when he opened my office to take my things and give them to me. On our way out from Sacred Hospital, he held my hand as if he was claiming me to his own.

The feeling was great but I know for sure it was in his nature to be like this in other girls. How could I not know from his looks further he may have stolen every girl's heart.

"Where are you taking me?" I asked as he starts his engine.

"Away from many problems?" He answered.

"And where would that be?"

"Later you will know."

Eric took me to this restaurant where it has a nice view from above, I never thought that there's this kind of place existing in Lost Angeles. All my life I only knew one restaurant but after what happened I think I would not find myself to go back there.

"Where did you find this place?" I asked Eric.

"My friend brought me here and I liked because it's peaceful so I thought to bring you here." He truthfully said which made me surprised.

"I see so how many girls did you brought here?"

"Only you," He simply answered.

I don't know but it felt awkward after he said that and the atmosphere seemed to be tightening between us. If the waiter did not approach us to take our order I think we would have a long silence to consider.

"May I have your order, sir?" Asked the waiter to Eric.

Aww I wish they have pasta here I mean it's my favorite and I'm craving for no reason.

"We'll take two garlic carbonara and one large sized beefsteak."

"How about your drinks sir?"

"We'll have one bottle of red wine," Eric ordered and the waiter quickly boosted off his feet towards the counter.

I on the other side was left speechless after what Eric did. How did he know that carbonara was my favorite?!

"Are you okay?" He asked me when he noticed that I'm literally out of this world.

"Hell no! How did you know about me loving carbonara?!" I asked him dumbfounded but instead, he grinned.

"I know more than what you know."

"What was that supposed to mean?"

"You'll know when the right time comes." He creepingly said.

"Okay? I don't mean to be rude but are you stalking me?!" I claimed which caused Eric to laugh and that was new to me because I never saw him laugh and damn it felt good to see him like this.

"Are serious about that?" He sarcastically says and I glared at him.

"Of course I am!"

"Sorry, miss but no." He said while continuing laughing.

I rolled my eyes to Eric while he keeps on laughing. I mean what's wrong with my question? It's clear that we really don't know about each other and then here he goes knowing stuff about me isn't that weird?

"But I know your favorite flower is tulips." He added which made me literally questioning myself.

"Eric!"

"Relax, Athena just told me that." He confessed now smiling.

"As always Athena has a very noisy mouth," I stated.

When our food was served I can't deny asking Eric about what happened earlier.

"So about what happened earlier is there something bothering you?"

"Nothing, I was just frustrated having a fight with a friend." He said which made me curious.

"I see that friend might be special for you to act like that."

"Not really we just had a misunderstanding."

"Is it a girl or a boy?" I questioned out of mind because I had a feeling it's a girl.

"Girl."

"Oww, you like her? Or she likes you?"

"No, we're just friends nothing in between." He stated emotionless which was weird for me to feel a bit happy.

"What about you and Daniel?" He asked out of a sudden.

"I chose not to talk about him."

"Why?"

"Because I wanted to forget him after he cheated if possible I don't want to see him."

"Is that really the reason?"

"Of course it is and why not?"

"I don't know maybe someone already entered your life?"

When Eric said that I don't know but I felt guilty. As memories of that angel flashes back I can't deny that I am attaching a fantasy in my life.

"Maybe someone did but as of now I don't want to engage myself in it."

"What if that someone really wants to enter your life will you accept him?" Eric asked which I believed has the tone of being serious.

At the moment I got nervous because it's as if I was talking with myself.

"Yes," I answered and funny how I saw Eric gave a glance of happiness and smiled.
