That Doctor Is Mine

“You’re good at singing, Hija.”

“You have a very angelic voice, Miss.”

“You are not just beautiful, hija. But also talented.”

“I enjoyed every second of your performance”

Olivia took over the mic and said how impressed she was with Avah. “Because of your performance, I feel so blessed. Thank you so so much for sharing your talent with us, Avah. I wish we can be good good friends. Ladies and gents, please let’s give Avah another round of applause.” Because of what Olivia said, Alexa became even more out of place.

He wasn’t really invited to Olivia’s birthday, but since he knew Davien was coming, he volunteered to go. Alexa grabbed the bottle of champagne and nothing hit it. A very inappropriate action in a formal party.

While on her way, a man blocked Avah’s way. A handsome man to be exact. Naka gray suit, his deep dimple are showing because of his bright smile.

“Hi, miss.” Anito. “I’m Marcus, your name is Avah?” Marcus held his hand for a handshake.

Before Avah could accept Marcus’ hand Davien had already done so. Davien shake hands with Marcus while saying, “Hi. Yes, her name is Avah and my name is Davien Sebastian, her husband. It’s so nice meeting you. Please excuse us.” There was a fake smile on Davien’s lips as he stared at Marcus.

Davien’s voice and eyes are telling him to back off.

“Oh, you are married. But it’s nice meeting you tho, Avah. My bad, I was late to meet you.” Marcus chased before the couple could take a step.

“Yeah, you were way too late. Now, please excuse us.” Davien repeated and then escorted Avah back to their seat.

“All right, we’ll go first.” Letting Avah know that she is used to people she has just met.

Davien secured Avah inside of his arms.

“You never told me that you sing and play piano.” He whispered in her ear.

“You’re not asking,” Avah reasoned.

When they returned to their bank, he received praise again from Melanie, Hirro, Gael and Tim. After a few more minutes, Olivia finally opened the dance floor to her guests who wanted to dance.

The couples in the venue started gathering on the dance floor when the accompaniment of Regine Velasquez’s music Pangarap Ko Ang Ibigin Ka suddenly played but it was Morissette Amon’s version.

“Whenever you”re there

I feel nervous and happy at the same time

I can’t seem to hear your voice

Because it”s amazing ‘when you talk

So I want you to know

What my heart cries out for ”

Davien stands up. He held out his hand in front of Avah and said, “can I have this dance, Mrs. Sebastian?” He said while looking straight into her tantalizing eyes. Those long fake lashes are way too perfect for Avah.

Avah took Davien’s waiting hand and carried him to the center of the dance floor. Davien placed Avah’s hand on his shoulder while he was on the other hand, grip on his wife’s waist. That is when the chorus of the song started.

“My dream is to love you

And in the meantime, you will be together

You are the only thing missing in my life

My dream is to love you

You so want tooContent (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

I can be with and love

Or how nice to think

That we both feel the same way

I ask you to say

What your heart whispers ”

Because the music makes Davien fall more and more in love with Avah, they dance looking at each other. Davien’s face became serious because of the depth of his thoughts. She wonders what kind of life she would have if she hadn’t met Avah. She thinks that she is happy like the joy she feels now if she is tied to Alexa?

Is her heart beating so fast when another woman is dancing today? Davien asked himself so many questions. He fall in love before with many woman. But in all of that, he can tell that Avah is an exception from all those women of his past.

“My dream is to love you

And in the meantime, you will be together

You are the only thing missing in my life

My dream is to love you

Or how long have I been waiting

That to me will offer

Of love that is real and never ending ”

Because they were just staring at each other Avah couldn’t avoid the tickle caused by Davien’s stare. He thought then that he was the most unlucky man in the world. Her parents abandoned her, and as she was about to fulfill her dream of becoming a nun, Davien suddenly came into her life. She got pregnant, scrambled for something to eat every day to come, she cried every night because her life was ruined because of a wrong night.

But as Avah meditates now. Was the first night between the two of us really wrong? He asked himself. Because if that”s wrong it”s probably the best kind of wrong in the world. Mother Segunda was right that God had a plan for her.

Because if God had no plan for him, he would definitely not be so happy now and content with Davien. Destiny is really funny. It is true that love mysteriously attacks. It’s mysterious because Avah doesn’t know when, how and how she started to love Davien.

“Avah, I have something to tell you.” Pauna by Davien. He will confess his feelings. He could no longer keep it a secret, or ignore it. Whatever Avah’s answer will be she will accept. If they don’t feel the same way, he will try to win the heart of the wife.

“I’ll tell you something too, Davien.” Avah promised.
