Chapter 30: The Clown
"Dr. Song, I think you have a call..." informed Dr. Rio when she saw the light on Yera’s mobile phone blink several times. Yera just came back to the surgical department room from basement six.
"The clown is calling you. Poor guy... Did he look like a clown that you saved his number as one?" Dr. Rio asked.
Yera smiled and said, "Yeah, you can say that."
Then she suddenly wondered how Xander would react if he found out that she saved him as ’The Clown’ on her mobile phone. She deliberately did that, not only because of his jovial personality but also because she needed an ambiguous alias for him so others would not be suspicious whenever he called. With Xander’s character, Yera was sure there would not be a day went by without him calling her.
She excused herself to call Xander back.
"Yes? I have missed a call from you," said Yera.
"Oh yeah... I just wanted to tell you to eat well. Besides, I’m missing your cold voice... Wondering when you will finally answer my call sweetly... I also want to remind you not to drink at all later, lest you want to kill everyone in your team with your cuteness, my darling..." Xander said before he quickly ended the call.
Yera’s jaw dropped, totally flabbergasted. ’What the hell is wrong with him? Is he trying to kill me with those pickup lines?! Is this his way of bullying me!?" Yera complained to her phone as her face reddened from embarrassment.
She believed what Xander was doing to her could be classified as bullying instead of mere teasing... It caused her heart to beat so irregularly, that if this continued, she was afraid she would get a heart attack!
