The Runaway Lover by Kyzyl Mhy (best classic books of all time .TXT) 📗

“I never scared them. I was only reminding them.” He reasoned out. 

I then just rolled my eyes and sighed as I pulled away from the hug and looked straight into his eyes. As usual he had that stoic look in his face. Reighn will always be Reighn. 

“Five years... and yet you still don’t know how to smile.” I teasingly said as I gave him a soft tap on the chest. 

“Who the heck in their right mind would still be able to smile after being a part of two major surgeries?” He replied. “Damn it... I feel so exhausted.” He added and I chuckled. 

He has a point. As doctors, we pretty have one of the busiest and hardest job schedules in the entire universe – most of our time are dedicated to treating patients and finding cures to certain diagnosis, so there is no doubt as to why we always feel exhausted. 

“You can go ahead now... I’ll take over.” I said as I took the patient charts from him and gave him an assured smile. 

“That would be the nicest thing I’ve heard today...” He smiled. “It’s good to have you back.” He added.

“Meeting adjourned.” Felix announced as he stood up from his seat before walking out of the conference room. 

All the employees and board members bowed their heads down to show respect and waited for him to leave before they stood up from their seats and returned to their stations. Everyone was sure to be careful with their actions to avoid causing unnecessary ruckus or distraction.  

Each of them maintained their focus on work, and no one dared to open their mouths and talk about gossips or spread rumors – the company’s number one forbidden rule. 

Felix walked across the lobby where the employees were working quietly in their own cubicles. The whole floor was full of silence, and the only thing you could hear was his light footsteps as he walked his way to the elevator. 

“Sir, the information you asked for is already waiting at your table.” Levi, Felix’s trusted cousin and secretary, greeted the moment the elevator door opened when it reached his office floor. 

“Good.” Felix replied as he walked his way to his table where a clean black folder was resting. 

He then picked the folder up as he sat on the edge of his desk to read it. His secretary has already left so he had the whole office alone for himself. 

“Cristina Martinez...” He read before shifting his attention to the picture that was printed on the left side of the document. 

After meeting that little boy in the airport, he could not seem to keep his focus. The little boy strongly resembled his features, and the fact that his mother was the last woman he had ever slept strengthen his hypothesis that that child was his. 

Felix carefully read every detail of information listed on the document, and then a small playful smile appeared on his lips when he realized that the woman has long been close to his reach, he just not did not notice. 

He then places the folder down on his table and takes his car keys with him before walking out of his office. 

“Cancel all my meetings for today.” He informed his secretary without giving him time to ask further questions.

Tina was getting a handful of crying toddlers and scared children hiding behind their mommies. Most of them were pretty scared because they thought that she will be giving them flu shots. 

“I still can’t believe that I am working with you again, Doc!” Adelaide chirped as they walked their way to the hospital cafeteria to have some lunch. 

“Do I not look real?” Tina chuckled as she placed her stethoscope inside the pocket of her doctor’s gown.  

“No Doc! But you definitely look more beautiful!” Adelaide replied. “America definitely made you bloom a lot!” she added.  

Tina just shook her head and chuckled. “I had to work out for this,” She smiled. “... because apparently, even a doctor like me, is not exempted from the bodily changes after childbirth.” she added. 

“Speaking of childbirth, when will I get the chance to see little Yohann?” Adelaide asked. 

Aside from her family and friends, Adelaide is one of the few people who knew about the truth behind her sudden study leave five years ago.  

“I’ll try to bring him with me some time.” Tina replied as they both take a food tray and fell in line. 

Tina and Adelaide were busy catching up while waiting for their turn to get some food when another nurse called their attention. 

“D-Dr. Martinez...” She called as she tried to catch her breath. 

“What happened?” Tina asked as she turned to look at the tired nurse. 

“The director wants to meet you in his office. ASAP.”
