Kiss Me When You're Sober (FREENBECKY)

III

Riley's POV

Sobrang nakakapagod talaga. I feel like I did almost all the assessments for today. Tapos I have some remaining psych reports to write. Kailangan ko rin pala mag score at interpret pa ng mga test kanina. Ako lang ba intern dito? As far as I know apat kami.

It's already 1 PM and I remember may meeting ng 2 PM onwards so kahit papaano makakapag pahinga ako ng maaga. Buti nalang din at sinabi ni Ms. Tin na sa Monday nalang yung ibang paper works.

We are now here at the conference room, waiting for Doc Tristan and Ms. Tin. Katabi ko sila Marcus, Jenna, and Lily. Mga co-interns ko from other school. Si Marcus childhood friend ko yan.

"Cus, wala pa naman sila iidlip lang ako." bulong ko kay Marcus at sumandal sa balikat niya.

"Kaya tayo napagkakamalang mag jowa ang clingy mo sa akin eh." paasar na sabi ni Marcus.

"I don't care anymore Cus, you always use me as a front to your parents para lang di ka mapag kamalang badi-"

"Sandal na daming satsat eh."

I cling my arm to his arms and lean my head on his shoulder.

Third Person POV

The meeting is already ongoing for almost 15 minutes and Riley is still sleeping peacefully on Marcus's shoulder.

Marcus was about to wake her up but Doc Tristan stopped him. He mouthed "Just let her sleep." So, Marcus didn't bother to wake Riley up.

Tristan is aware that Riley did a lot of work today so he just let her sleep and besides, he will just introduce his partners in managing this clinic. No big deal.

While Tristan is introducing Nita, who is the appointed head of the assessment department, he heard some murmurs at the back. It's Riley who is already awake and is now annoyed at Marcus because he didn't wake her up. They're bickering and Tristan find it cute. 

"Oh, Riley you're awake." Tristan said. "Don't worry, I asked Marcus not to wake you up. You deserve that sleep because you did a lot of work today."

Riley didn't know how to react and now that her senses is slowly turning back, she look around the conference room and saw Nita and Ren, both staring at her.

Nita is smiling at her but Ren is just deadass staring at her. Actually, everyone is looking at her but Riley locked her eyes on Ren.

Riley's POV

She looks so different compared when I saw her sleeping in Doc Tristan's room and in the cafe. Muka na siyang tao and damn... the word gorgeous isn't enough to describe her. She's wearing black slacks and a white v-neck shirt inside her coat. Her hair is tucked in her left ear. Ang ganda...

Pero what if ngitian mo ulit ako Miss Ren? Siguro lasing pa siya nung nginitian niya ako kaninang umaga. Psh.

Nakatingin siya sakin pero poker face lang so I diverted my gaze to ate Nita who's smiling widely at me. She also look gorgeous as well. 

Oo Mis Ren crush kita pero marami akong back up. If you don't like me edi don't.

Teka bakit sila nandito?

"Hoy Cus, bakit nandito sila ate Nita and Miss Ren?"

"Kilala mo sila?!" impit na tanong ni Marcus.

"Just tell me what the hell- I mean bakit sila nandito?" gigil na ako sa taong to.

"Sila yung partner ni Doc Tristan sa pag ma manage ng clinic. Si Miss Hana, yung head ng HR at si Miss Nita yung sa assessment department." mabilisang sagot ni Marcus.

Oh Hana... is it her first or second name?

"Cus, crush ko silang dalawa pero bet na bet ko si ate Nita." bulong ko parin kay Marcus.

"Yeah I know, because she has similarities with ate Jasmi-"

"Shut the fuck up Marcus. Ilang beses ko ba sasabihin na-"

Hinawakan ni Marcus yung kumay ko, "Sorry."

After mag sorry ni Marcus biglang may umubo. Pag tingin ko si ate Nita na matalas na nakatingin sa amin ni Marcus. Actually sa kamay naming dalawa. Tinignan ko si Miss Ren, ayun dedma lang.
