The Potential Between Us ✨ [MED SERIES 7] COMPLETED

Chapter 15

The finals week for first sem was somewhat okay. Puyat ako pero worth it kasi halos lumabas yung mga nireview namin. For a week, Chester stayed with me, s'ya taga review ko. Then, on the second week nagduty na sya.

"How's Surgery?" Lance asked when I'm fixing my things. Pinauna ko na yung mga friends ko kasi susunduin ako ni Chester dahil dideretso kami ng Tagaytay.

"Okay naman ata," nakangiting sabi ko. "Ikaw? For sure mataas ka."

He smiled then helped me. We walked to the parking lot side by side. "Okay lang."

Tipid akong ngumiti, "Pa-humble."

He creased his nose. "I think I need to go. Andito na boyfriend mo."

Hindi ko namalayan na naihatid na nya ako sa usual na parking spot ni Chester. I waved goodbye to Lance then smiled at Chester. He opened the shotgun door for me. I sat quietly and watched him drive. He was silent. Tinignan ko yung likod ng kotse, andun na yung maleta namin.

"How's your duty?" I asked lowly.

He looked at me briefly. "Okay lang."

Sumimangot ako. "Hindi mo tatanungin kung okay yung last exam ko?"

"You probably passed."

"How sure are you?" I contested him.

"You were smiling with you friend." He said pointing the word friend.

"Seloso."

Hindi sya sumagot. I stared at him for minutes. How can I assure him that Lance and I are just friends, ang laking factor din kasing kamukha nya yung ex ko.

"Baby, drive-thru tayo, I'm hungry."

"Which fast food?" He asked softly.

"Ano gusto mo?"

He glanced at me smirking. "Baby, I'm not mad."

"Did I say you are?" I said smiling. "Yellow cab, you like?"

He just nodded. "QC and Manila lang ba clerkship ulit?"

"Not sure. Why? Should we pray na may Taguig?" Pang-aasar ko habang nag-oorder sya.

"Will you share a condo with your friends?"

"If alphabetical nga, I'll be with Lou and Trix, maybe. Why?"

"So, hindi ako makakadalaw?"

Ngumiti ako ng bahagya. "Ako dadalaw sayo kung ganun."

"I highly doubt that, your duties would be hell, I'm telling you."

"So hindi tayo magkikita?" Tanong ko.

"Sa off mo sunduin na lang kita. Tapos ihahatid kita sa duty mo kinabukasan siguro."

Medyo natagalan kami ng dating dahil sobrang traffic sa south. Past 8 pm na. We just ate our dinner then showered. Tapos dahil parehas kaming pagod, nakatulugan naming bukas yung pinapanuod naming movie.

"Hindi mo pinatay yung TV," sabi ko. "I'm still sleepy."

He curled up to. "Yeah. I'm tired too. What breakfast do you like?"

"Will you cook?"

"Yeah."

"Bacon and egg will be fine," sagot ko. "Let's swim. Nag-impake ka ba ng bikini ko?"
