Chapter Nineteen 

 

“Du gehörst mir für immer und ewig, Schatz... nur meins.” 

Tina let out a sigh then leaned her back on the chair. She had just finished doing her morning rounds to check on her patients, and now she’s currently waiting for the patients who set an appointment with her today to arrive. 

“Why does that keep on replaying on my mind?!” She asked herself as she slightly messed with her hair.  

Ever since yesterday, she could not stop thinking about the words Felix had whispered to her before she drifted off to sleep after their steamy encounter. She then blushed when she remembered how she allowed him to take her repeatedly until her body could no longer bear the exhaustion.  

She can’t deny that she loved every bit of it, every bit of sensation, every thrust, kiss, and touch. Only Felix could make her feel all those things – he was the only one who could make her burn with the desire for pleasure... and at the same time make her feel all sorts of foreign feelings, like butterflies on her stomach, and sudden heart palpitations.  

A week ago, she had herself checked to see if she had some heart problems, but the test results said that she was completely healthy... just a little stressed. 

“Du gehörst mir für immer und ewig, Schatz... nur meins.” 

Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard someone knock on the door. She then immediately fixed herself and straightened her posture before she gave the person the permission to come in. 

“Doc, Mrs. Rouwei and his son are already outside.” Her secretary informed. 

“Oh! Let them in...” Tina nodded and smiled. 

- 

“So, you finally rekindled the connection between you and your baby Daddy?” Asked Marianne who was flipping the pages of the bridal magazine that she was holding. “You should bring him to the wedding. I’d love to meet him.” 

Tina shook her head and chuckled. “I see no reason to bring him with me, Marianne.” She replied. “He and I have no personal connections with each other.” 

“I beg to disagree...” Kassie chipped in after she took a sip from her tea and placed her teacup down. “... some things might seem like that for you, while it means another for him.” She added with a meaningful smile on her lips. 

“From the looks of it, I think you know something, Kass,” Marianne chuckled as she looked at Kassie who had a playful smile on her lips. “Do tell me! I want to know too!” She said as she moved her seat closer towards Kassie as she leaned her ear to her, waiting for her to talk. 

Tina looked at Kassie with confusion.  

“Ya! If there’s someone who should know what Kass knows, it should be me!” She spoke. 

“I might know something, but I am not telling you both.” Kassie shook her head and chuckled. “It’s not my story to tell... and besides, why do you seem curious Tina?” Kassie asked, shifting the center of attention to Tina. 

“Didn’t you just say that you have no personal connection with your baby Daddy?” She asked with a hint of teasing and playfulness in her voice. 

Tina’s cheeks blushed. “Y-Ya! It’s not like what you’re thinking of!” She immediately shook her head. “I was just curious, like Marianne!” She defended. 

“Huh? Why? What do you think I’m thinking off?” Kassie chuckled. 

“You seem a little defensive, Tina...” Mariane pitched in. “I feel like you’re hiding something...” 

“Ya! Why am I the one being interrogated here?” Tina asked, trying to divert the topic and her friend’s attention to something else.  

 

-Tina- 

Marianne was going in the middle of bombarding me with questions, thankfully, our other friends had arrived so she went on to entertain them. 

“Oh? Tina is an early bird today...” said Yzza who sat on the empty chair beside mine.  

“There weren’t that many patients, so I could easily vacate my afternoon schedule,” I replied before I took a sip from my orange juice. 

“Oh I see...” She nodded. “Have you already settled the matters regarding your baby daddy?” She asked. 

I sighed. Just when I thought that I have managed to escape from the hot seat, Yzza comes asking me a question about Felix, causing me to once again be in the hot seat. 

“Baby daddy?” Lauren asked with confusion. “You mean your one-night stand?” She added. 

“Oh gosh?! Is he back? Since when?” asked Roxanne. 

I bit my lower lip as I tried to think of a way to avoid answering their questions, but no matter how hard I try, there just seems to be none, so I was left without a choice but to answer them. 

“About a month ago... we met at the airport,” I answered Roxanne’s question.  

I originally planned to keep things to myself, but my mouth got ahead of me so I ended up voicing all the frustrations, and antics that I had to deal it ever since Felix and I met. I continued to share my experience until we were finally called for the fitting of the gowns. 

Marianne was first to go since she is the bride, the star of the show, while I and the others waited at the lounge. We were all excited to see what she’ll look like. 

A few moments later, the attendant who helped Marianne a while ago, stepped out of the dressing room and greeted at with a smile. 

“Ladies... please welcome the beautiful bride.” She said and clapped, then Marianne slowly revealed herself to us. 

I could not help but smile as I looked at her. She wore a pearl white-colored mermaid gown, that was off shoulders and adorned with a beautiful and elegant layer of lace. The gown hugged her curves and fit her perfectly. 

“You look perfect, Marianne!” Roxanne clapped. 

“Aleck is one lucky guy because he has you for a bride.” Lauren cheered. 

“You look like a princess!” Kassie squealed. 

Seeing my friend wearing a wedding gown, and knowing that she was finally found the person whom she’ll spend her life with made me happy... but a part of me was envious.
