Chapter 11
Annie
It’s been a week since I arrived here. It’s almost closing time, so it won’t be long before that protective guy shows up at the door. It feels like we’ve known each other forever, so I gladly accept his toxicity, haha.
Speaking of which, as I’m thinking about him. I hear so
turn to look at him,
someone clear their throat softly A smile spreads across my face, but it disappears as
as soon ast
Life and it scares me.
“Ready, dol?” I look at him and nod slightly. The truth is, he’s becoming someone very important in my life, and it
“Yes, I’m ready, but today I’m going straight to the dorm. I want to spend time with the girls, I’ve been neglecting them.”
I see the disappointment in his eyes, but I don’t take it back. I can’t regret trying to push him away when he’s so young and doesn’t deserve to be burdened with a rejected, pregnant woman like me.
“Alright. Then I guess we can spend some time together tomorrow” A lump forms in my throat. The way he says it makes me feel so sorry for him I’m about to say yes when one of the traitorous sisters approaches us.
“Hey girl, it’s great that ‘Bones‘ came to get you Mir and are going to dinner with the cardiologists, you know, to strengthen the bonds of friendship between Gynecology and Cardiology.” The cynic winks at me playfully. “And we were worned about leaving you alone. Or do you want to come with us?*| shudder at the thought of being a third wheel, so I decline vigorously
“No, no, you guys go. Aaron is with me. My friend cracks a victorious smile as he approaches Martha to kiss her cheek
“Don’t worry, I take good care of doll and baby” My friend smiles. They love this guy and every night they beg me not to let him go.
“Well, I’m going to get ready. See you tomor
refusal
atomorrow, babe I open my eyes as wide as I can when I hear her. See you tomorrow? I shake my head in
“Wow, your friends are fast. But don’t worry, I don’t judge anyone. You know our guild doesn’t have the best reputation, so it’s normal.”
I nod in agreement. The least you hear about doctors is that they are monogamous. There is usually a bit of libertinism in our profession because it’s really hard for anyone to keep up with us. You usually hear about single or divorced doctors when it comes to young people.
“So, where are we having dinner?” I ask to change the subject. I don’t really feel like going out, so I like what he’s suggesting.
“How about we go to my room and eat there?” He sees the surprise in my eyes at what 1 just heard and bursts out laughing. “We’re just going to eat, unless you want to do something else.” He lets out a giggle, so I grab the first thing I find and start hitting him.
“Hahaha, calm down. I’m just kidding, hahaha. Well, it’s not a joke I hit him again and he keeps laughing. “Yes, it’s a joke, hahaha!
His laughter makes me smile too. Even though it wasn’t my intention, his company has taken my mind off a lot of bad thoughts. He’s good company and I enjoy being with him.
While we’re in his room watching a move while we eat, he puts his fork down to look at me seriously. After a minute, he gathers his courage and asks me the question that’s been on his mind.
“Annie, have you thought about what you’re going to do about your baby?” I stop eating and put my cutlery down
“Do in what sense?” He takes my hand and asks me the question.
The
Are you going to tell the father of your baby that you’re pregnant?” I don’t let go of his grip. I’ve been thinking about what I’m going to do for days.
“Yes, I’ve thought about it a little, but it’s not 100% decided. I’m waiting for my sister to confirm that Liam has started a relationship with the girl h loves it everything goes well, I won’t tell him. I don’t want to damage what they have. But if everything stays the same, I’ll work up the courage to tell him. Do you think I’m doing the right thing?” He looks at me and nods.
Only you know if it’s right or wrong. But if you don’t tell him, how do you plan to hide it?” I haven’t thought about that yet. I’m going to wait a little
longer
7 dont know)
ow yet. The important thing first is that the baby is born healthy. He won’t be able to be a present father during the pregnancy because I’m here and he’s there. And I don’t want to hear him reproaching me for not taking care of myself when I’m supposed to be a gynecologist and I have a lot of knowledge about this I don’t want his reproach. Maybe I won’t tell him and I’ll never go home.” My eyes start to sting at the thought. My family doesn’t
deserve for me to do this to them
“Well, then let’s wart and see what they tell you and then we’ll talk, Okay?” I nod, wiping my tears. He looks at me and ruffles my hair. He knows it

bothers me and he still does it
Although to be honest, it doesn’t bother me that much anymore. Now he’s a good friend, I like his company and he makes me feel safe.
Thank God for putting this strange guy in my path.
Liam
I’m getting ready to go to the hospital when there’s a knock at my apartment door. I stop what I’m doing and go to see who it is. When I open the door, Maria is standing in front of me. As soon as she sees me, she throws herself into my arms and gives me a deep kiss.
“Liam, forgive me. I know I’ve been acting like a fool, but I understand now that we shouldn’t be apart anymore. If you’re going to dare to show us to the world even though you broke up with Annie a few days ago, I have to be brave too. Well face it together.”
What she says surprises me. I can’t move, so she goes to my lips to kiss me, It’s been so long since I’ve tasted her lips that I feel like I’m dreaming. But strangely, now I feel a little uncomfortable. This doesn’t feel as good as I thought it would. I pull away from her slightly to look at her. She looks a little serious when she sees my reaction, so I smile.
“Sounds good to me. It’s time to show everyone that you and I love each other and that we’re going to fight for what we feel. What do you think?” She nods. I let her in, and while I finish getting ready, she comes into the bedroom with me. First she sits on the bed, but a few minutes later, she gets up and locks around. She opens one of the drawers and finds a small diary I hadn’t seen it must be Annie’s. Through the mirror, I see her open it and her face transforms. There’s hatred in her eyes and then she starts ripping out the pages one by one. I’m surprised by what I see, but I don’t say anything. When turn around, she has the same sweet look she always has
“Shall we go? 11 go to the hospital with you, and then I go and buy some things.” I nod and follow her. But before we leave, she stops. “You know what, I’m going to stay here a little longer and then 111 do my shopping. Do you mind?” I take her hand and shake my head.
“No, you can stay. This is your home too.” She smiles at me and I grab my things to leave. I turn to look at her one more time. Her gaze is sweet and innocent as always, but there’s something that tells me it’s not all true. When I’m outside. I shake my head emphatically. No, she’s the kindest, most wonderful girl. I must have seen wrong. Without another thought, I leave
