Anouk

" Whaaaat ? "He didn't say what I hear right ? That'd not possible.

" I like you Anouk Star Abbott"He repeated again . I saw a small smile curving on his lips . But once I blinked it vanished like an illusion. I never once saw him smile sincere way   since I meet him .

No he didn't smile .

"OK "

"OK ? What do you mean ? So you agree " Wait what did I just blurt out . I was afraid to him moment ago now he is confessing me . God what a mess ?

"No. I mean . How can you like me ? We . You don't know me . We just met month ago" I knew I'm embarrassing myself with all these saying nonsense and stuttering but I have to say this .

"Of course that's why we are going to get know about each other " He is sitting on the chair . When did he move ?

"What do you mean ' we ' ? I didn't agree to date you " I asked him in confusion. I have a perfect  memory .

"You are saying you didn't yes to me OK earlier , Yes ? Don't want to date me ? " He is teasing  me . Oh god , this man is really complicated . How can I keep up with him ? His mood swinging are crazy .

"Yes"

"Yes . Then we are dating from now on"

"No .That's not what I mean . I mean Yes "

"OK . That' s  why I'm saying let's date then "

" No . I didn't say that "

"But you said yes to me "

"No stop keep saying  that I said  yes to your proposal . I said yes to the first question and no to the second one . Stop manipulating  me " He picked my bag and took my hand .

"OK .OK . It's our first day " He said  quietly while leading me out from my office  I almost didn't catch that .

" Stop keep saying that North "

"What ? About me and you dating ? "

"Stop it . We are not dating . I didn't agree " I was frustrated . He is too much .

"Real mature Dr.Abbott . Stop stomping on the floor like a spoiled child . I never thought Pediatricians are like this " When I opened my mouth to reply him , I noticed we were already were beside his car.

He opened the door for me this time. I held his arm taking his attention to me.

"North , I really can't date you . Please understand " I said calmly praying he would understand this and leave me alone.

"Why because I should date a model or heiress ? "

"I don't know about that . It's not like my choice to make . I'm simply saying I can't date you   "

"Why ? Enlighten me with your reasons . I'm listening"

"I can't afford to be in a relationship North "

"You're a Pediatrician . It's highly paid job isn't that ? "I sighed.

" I have yet to pay off my student loans . I'm still paying for my dad's hospital bills and I need money for his next operation . It would make him walk he was paralysed for 7 years now . I have
to pay for my younger brother and sister's education too . Trust me you don't want to date someone like me "

"Still I don't understand why we can't date " Is he for really ? Didn't he hear what I said before . No one have paid any attention to me after highschool . That was all before my dad' s accident and our good days .
