Selena checked her watch constantly and then looked at the building where Jason was. She pursed her lips. 18:05. He should already be out right now. She spotted him and she exclaimed, “That’s him. The guy wearing that sexy white shirt.” 

The taxi driver gave her a conspicuous look as if he was judging her but right now, she didn’t care. She was focused. She was a spy. She would not let guilt get to her. She watched Jason getting in his car and she commanded, banging her fist against the driver’s seat, “Come on! Follow that car!” 

“Alright... alright! No need to get excited.” The man muttered as he started the engine. He was going to charge her additionally for making him wait that long.

Was she being paranoid to doubt him? She tightened her grip on the car seat, the taxi driver occasionally asking her if that was what she really wanted to do. She knew it wasn’t right. But… what if that ‘doc’ was not a colleague but an actual doctor? What if he was hiding a deadly illness from her and he missed his treatments because of her? What if she couldn’t support him in his time of need when he had been there for her? 

These irrational thoughts were making her sick. She knew he needed her. She would prove to him that she was worthy, that she would support him like none other.

“Miss, I know it ain’t my business but if you’re doubting that fella like that, you ain’t right for him and he ain’t right for you. Just sayin’…”

“Argh, just follow him! I know what I’m doing!” 

He shrugged, changing the channel to find some good music, “Do you though?”

She pouted, admitting, “No.” She really didn't know what she was doing right now, doubting the man that she loved like that.

She was perplexed when they entered a residential area. She watched in utmost surprise as Jason turned his car left and stopped into a garage. Did he live there? It looked like one of those small villas she saw in movies. It dominated the area. “Please stop here!” 

The driver hesitated, “You sure, miss?” 

“Yes! Absolutely! 100 percent sure!”

When the car pulled over near the pavement, she paid him rapidly and stepped outside. The man checked the house and then looked at the woman again, “Want me to wait for ya?” 

“Uh… no but thank you very much, sir.” 

“Right, girl. Stay outta trouble.”

She felt nervous all of a sudden as the taxi drove away. That old man had been so sweet to her. Maybe she should have asked him to wait for her. Well, there was no going back then. As the wind blew harshly, messing her hair, she shuddered, realizing that she should have worn a jacket. They seemed like a quiet and nice neighborhood. 

She gazed at that two-level house. It clearly reflected money. Why was Jason hiding this from her? She could move in with him! Well, if he wanted right?

She crossed the road to get a closer look. The lights were already on though and as she approached it, she noticed there was a second car in that garage. She stared at it. No big deal. Maybe he was rich and he didn’t want her to know. Ooh. Maybe he still lived with his parents? Haha, what were the odds? 

She felt like a creep right now and she hated herself in that second. Why did she give in to suspicions about the man who loved her so much? She felt that she was being such a horrible person. She sighed heavily. Still, she was slightly disappointed that he told her that he lived in an apartment like hers when he was staying here all this time. Why did he lie?

She should just call another taxi and go back home then. She took out her phone, instinctively looking at the window and then she froze. Her phone tightened in her grip as she saw him move rapidly towards another form. She trembled, seeing how he pulled that woman close to him, sealing their mouth in a firm kiss. 

Her eyes widened. She must be mad. She was dreaming, hallucinating. She turned away from the window, tears threatening to fall from her eyes. What the fuck? She looked again and the lights seemed dimmer but the shapes, the silhouettes, of clothes being peeled off, of them kissing, of them… disappearing in the darkness.

That was a fucking nightmare. She escaped that area, running from there, wanting to erase what she just saw. That wasn’t Jason. Jason loved only her. It didn’t matter. He was a fucking cheater, a fucking liar, a fucking asshole. Her foot collided against a hunched root and she tripped and fell down on her knees on the side of the road. She stared down at the asphalt, tears running freely now. 

It wasn’t fair. It wasn’t real. It couldn’t be or had she been blind all this time? She clamped her hand on her mouth to prevent herself from crying out loud, not wanting to awaken the whole area. She should just get out of this place to get her thoughts right because right now, she was at a complete lost.

Cassandra pressed her hands on Jason’s chest and shoved him back, breaking the contact of their lips, “Wait.” 

He breathlessly panted, watching her approach the window, “Fuck. I need you, Cassie. It’s been ten days, man.” 

She checked the road outside, frowning slightly when the scenery stayed still. She swore, in that split of a second, that she had seen someone, standing there and watching them. She had heard someone running off. Had she imagined it? Possibly not. Her intuition wouldn’t betray her like that. 

Jason groaned at having to wait, “Hell. Don’t just stand there in your bra. What if someone sees you?” 

She chuckled, “Pff, what will they even do about it?” She pulled the curtains and turned back to him, arching an eyebrow at seeing him already naked. She sighed, running her hand in her hair, “Yeah, I was saying… you should probably take a shower and order something. Heading out tonight.” 

“What?! Where are you even going?” He followed her in their bedroom, hating how she was just choosing some clothes to wear. 

“Catching up with some friends at the bar. Will be late.” 

He muttered some cursed words and whined, “Shit. Sometimes I think you don’t even care about me, Cassie.” 

She hummed, “Got things to do, pretty boy. It’s rare that I get some free time for myself.” 

He was about to argue but instead swallowed hard as he watched her sliding off her pants and standing only in that black underwear. What a sight. She was fucking perfect and right now, he only wanted to ravish her. Thing is… he would never dare touch her without her permission. He wasn’t brave enough for that. 

So he stood. And watched her get dress, hating how it took her mere minutes to get those clothes on her body. When she grabbed her phone and her car keys, he mumbled, “You should be spending time with me instead since you’re busy all the time.” 

She laughed sarcastically, “And do what? Have sex?” 

He became red, clenching his fists, his pride hurting as he weakly agreed, “Yes? I miss you.” Her eyes softened as she reached out to caress his jaw, “If that’s a bit of comfort, I missed you too.” 

He leaned in, pressing his mouth onto her lips. She smiled against him, responding to him, “Next time I’m free… my time is yours, Jason.” He deepened the kiss and she pulled back, checking her phone, “Now, now don’t get ahead of yourself. You’ll be fine without me. And wear some clothes for god’s sake.” 

When she let him go, he reached for her hand again, saying in disappointment as he stroked her fingers, “You’re again not wearing it.” 

She shook her head, “I kept it on the vanity table. It’s annoying when I have to constantly take it off to perform surgeries lately. Been getting a lot. And… I see you’re not wearing yours as well.” 

He became pale at that remark. He stammered, releasing her hand to hurry through the room. He grabbed his discarded trousers and dug in his pocket, taking the jewel out, “I uh… had, the car broke down on the way! Didn’t want it to get dirty when I checked the engine.” 

She eyed him suspiciously as he slipped it on again and smiled like an idiot at her, showing the ring to her. Did he really expect her to believe that? “I see. Well… See you later then.” She held the doorknob and he regained his composure, trying again, “Hey, I could take you out instead. How about that, hun?” She smiled over her shoulder, starting to feel bothered now, “Next time. I’m already taken tonight. Have fun!”

Cassandra closed the door, dialing a number as she got into her car. He seemed even more clingy than ever. She wondered how long she could go on like that. Those past few days have been heaven. Just her and her work and nothing else to worry about. 

She held the steering wheel, waiting for the call to connect with Bluetooth while she revved the engine. Once she was on the road, after several rings, a woman answered her, “Where you at, doc? Don’t tell me you have an emergency again.” 

“Gonna be a little late, Cat. Have to get by the lab for a minute. Forgot some files there.” “For fuck’s sake, Cassandra!” “Just kidding. On my way. Is Meg there yet? Heard she was working on a case.” 

“Hah. You know she’s always down for some drinks. You’re the rare bird.” 

“Not my fault. Alright. I’ll hang up already.” She tuned the radio, flicking through the channels, stopping only when she heard some 80s song playing.

The next morning, the doctor along with assistant nurses Emma and Jillian left the medical room, their gloves still bloodied. Jillian remarked as she applied some disinfecting hand wash, soaking her hands thoroughly in the warm water, “You’re glowing today, Cass. Jason came back?” 

Cassandra twitched her lips in annoyance at that remark, “Hah. We delivered three babies today. That’s a reason enough to be extremely happy.” Plus, she had a great time with her two closed friends last night at the bar. So there was that too.

Emma protested, “Come on, you do that almost every week!” 

“They were triplets, Em. That’s not something I get to witness often.”

She turned to her tools, sterilizing them thoroughly with a special machine as she mumbled, “Isn’t it wonderful to hold these little humans, to know that we played a tiny part in their life? Did you see how happy the family was?” 

The nurses shared a knowing look between them. Emma held her shoulder, “We sure do a beautiful job, Cass.” 

Jillian gently elbowed her, teasing her, “But Jason also did come back, eh? Don’t lie.” 

“Yeah he did.” She gazed at the ring she was wearing and recalled how glad he was that she wore it this morning before setting out. Hmpf. A simple symbol of belonging to someone, of sharing a life with another person... when all she wanted was to be right by herself. 

She walked back to her office, removing it and setting it carefully in one of the drawers. She checked on the results of her upcoming patient. She needed to prep herself for an important surgery now.

  • Falling for the Doctor   Extra Escapade Part 4

    Cattleya lit another cigarette, leaned against the balcony, passively watching the party beneath. Some guests were still dancing, clearly drunk. Others were mostly chatting. It was rather calm now with most of the them having already head home. Her eyes searched for her good friend and she chuckled, seeing how April suddenly smeared fondant on Cassandra’s cheek, her adorable mocking laugh nearly drowned the sound of the music. Cassandra grimaced, extending her hands as if to capture her and the little girl went running for safety towards her grandfather who welcomed her in his arms. She then saw Selena walked to her, waving a handkerchief in her hand. She plopped down on her laps, raising the cloth to her cheek to wipe the fondant and instead she leaned forward, deviously licking it off with her tongue. She then laughed when Cassandra scowled at her and they ended up kissing, not giving a care to the guests who were stealin

    “Ms. Kir! You’re here!?” Sitting on an antique velvet chair, a thin white cigarette in one hand, wine in the other, Cattleya watched in amusement as the woman reddened. She flashed her a seductive smile, exhaling the smoke from her lips, “Shouldn’t I be, love?” She swallowed hard, seeing how her arresting green eyes raked her body. She closed her eyes, biting her lips hard, unable to focus as Megan mashed their mouth together. It felt too good. Her other hand descended down her body, playing with the hem of her panties. She tugged it up firmly and she felt that pressure against her crotch. Megan whispered, licking her earlobe, her eyes twinkling mischievously towards Cattleya, “Ask her if she likes what she sees.” She moaned in protest and immediately regretted as the palm landed on her ass, smacking her hard.

    “Hey, are you even been listening to me?” Nicholas scowled at her, realizing he had been talking to his sister since fifteen minutes and she hasn’t even paid attention. He noticed how she had been constantly glancing at her phone to check the time and he was bothered, “Do you have somewhere to go?” She froze. An hour was nearly over now and it was all nerve wracking, knowing that she could have the best damn time in her life if she just took a simple step instead of remaining here with her pesky brother. She bit her lower lips, “I… I have to go to the bathroom.” He arched an eyebrow, “Again? Didn’t you just go to the bathroom like ten minutes ago?!” She glared at him, “Don’t ask stupid questions, Nick. Why don’t you go mingle like mom and dad are doing instead of boring me to death?” He grimaced, &ldqu

    Extra Scene(Because why not!!) Wedding Reception Megan raised her glass of brandy to her lips, taking a sip as she watched Cassandra and Selena, swaying elegantly across the dance floor on that slow love song. All eyes were on them, as they were having their first dance. She smiled to herself. They looked so stunning together. Seeing them like that, so lost in each other… it made her rethink about her own ideals on love. “You think we’ll ever have something as beautiful as that, Cat?” Cattleya glanced at her, letting out a small chuckle, “Who knows... Maybe someday I’ll get a chance to see you in a wedding suit… Mmh, if only you’d allow your dates more than a silly one-night stand. It’s a shame... really.” Megan snorted, playfully elbowing her, “Well, at leastIdon’t have a string of exigent lovers.” Cattley

  • Falling for the Doctor   81. The Wedding

    When she heard the melodious song, Cassandra looked away from April towards the end on the path, seeing all the guests standing up, all attention directed towards a single way. She held her breath, catching sight of the bride.She had often fantasized about how beautiful she would look in a wedding dress but none came close to what laid before her eyes. She was simply magnificent. She wore a long dress with long sleeves, covering her arms with delicate lace, a white veil trailing behind her as she slowly took those elegant steps, walking down the aisle, her arm entwined with her father’s. Her golden blonde hair was partially tied on one side with a sapphire hair clip, matching the blue of her eyes, letting the wavy strands fall on one side. Her heart pounded in her chest, as she step by step, came closer to her. As soon as Selena looked up, her eyes locked with the doctor’s and a smile slowly appeared on

  • Falling for the Doctor   80. Flower Girl

    Cassandra looked at herself in the vertical mirror. The white suit she wore was tailor-made. A small blue flower was pinned below her shoulder. She instinctively moved a loose strand of her hair aside to not obstruct its sight. She exhaled slowly. Why was she getting so nervous? Was it alright to be this nervous? She walked to one of the windows overlooking the garden of the manor they had rented and she tried to calm herself down. From where she was, she could see the guests were already seated in queued white chairs. The place was generously decorated with fabrics and flowers, leaving everything elegant. It contrasted well with the greenery and white rose bushes. A bit further, she could see the pond where majestic swans were swimming. They would probably do some photoshoots there later. “Lovely creatures.” She muttered hoarsely under her breath, trying to distract herself. Her
