As they walked out of the cinema, Selena reached for her hand, lacing her fingers with hers, “So… how was the movie? Hilarious, right?” “I don’t know… I’m still wondering about the surgery part.” Selena nearly sobbed as she said that, “The sad part. I almost cried. I thought that he would die.” Cassandra pursed her lips, “You literally cried, you soppy creature. He should have died. He had zero chance of survival. And did you see how that doctor was holding that scalpel? I almost lost it.” “Heartless woman. Remind me never to take you to watch a medical drama.” She chuckled, “So what now? Can we go home?” Selena elbowed her playfully, “You must be kidding. We’re just getting started!”Cassandra sipped into her freshly pressed juice cocktail and sighed as Selena dragged her into another clothing shop, “Ugh, this is not how I’d imagine spending time with you. Just go. I’ll wait outside.” “Oh no. Come on. I think I saw something for you.” She grumbled, reluctantly following her inside a
Cassandra walked out of the fitting room, ignoring the clear cursed words Selena flung at her. She observed her surroundings. The stalker was nowhere to be seen. Thankfully. But as she turned around to look back at her defiant kitten, she realized that he was hiding behind a tall shelf, still looking towards her. She was tempted to just go to him and punch him straight in the face right now. “Selena. Pay for that lingerie and the black dress and let’s go.” Selena grumbled as she hopped into her jeans, zipping it up. She picked up the shopping bags and Cassandra slid her hand around her waist, directing her to the cashier.The man behind the cashier scanned the items and then paused, slightly raising the lacy bra, “Ma’am, I believe this is a two piece set. You might be missing—" Selena reddened furiously, “It’s alright. Just scan it!” The cashier’s cheek became red as well, “I’ll just…uh get someone to get you a complete set. Just wait—” Cassandra interrupted, handing her bank card,
Selena was snuggled in a blanket against the doctor as they were watching the superhero movie, Wonder Woman together. It was past midnight as the credits rolled. “Cass?” “Mmh?” “I think you’re Wonder Woman.” She laughed softly, pressing her mouth against the side of her head, “Every woman is Wonder Woman, including you.” She raised her hand, tracing her jaw, “You’re… ambitious, intelligent and so beautiful. You got things figured out while I’m a living mess. You look like... Jason never made a difference in your life while I…” She sighed heavily, stopping herself. Cassandra asked, “Do you still have feelings for him?” “No… but it still hurts. He treated me so well. I thought he loved me.” Cassandra quietly said, holding her closer, remembering how he had stayed with her for three years, “I think he always loved you, Selena. He was just using me for my wealth.” “Are you rich?” “I make around $ 450,000 a year.” Selena coughed and Cassandra quickly added, “But that’s because I’m alway
Cassandra was in her office and a patient and her husband were sitting opposite her while her nurses were standing behind her. Since the past two hours, she had carefully gone through the full medical history of her patient. The husband said, his voice broken, “We’ve tried chemotherapy and radiation but…it isn’t enough doctor.” Cassandra nodded, “I’ve gone through your medical history, Mrs Dallas and I’ve considered what you are asking of me. The cervical cancer is spreading and surgery is your only option now. I need you to understand the consequences of having a hysterectomy.” “I know!” She began sobbing and her husband comfortingly wrapped his arm around her. Cassandra said, shifting through the files, her eyes softening, “You will not be able to carry another child. After having a difficult caesarian delivery, believe me when I say a second child would cause potential health risks for both you and the baby.” “I don’t care! I never wanted this! This is so unfair. Why did it have
She left her clinic around 1 p.m., wanting to drop by the hospital to see if the patients she had treated were faring better. Her phone vibrated, alerting her of a new message and she reached for it, sliding it open. From Selena. She clicked on the video, seeing that the white beast was resting on top of one of the rotating blades of her ceiling fan. How on Earth did it get up there? A message popped up: I can’t get him down. Can I turn on the fan? Silly. She called her instantly, the call going on her car’s Bluetooth system and Selena answered right away, her voice resonating in the car, “Doctor! How dare you go to work on your break, you workaholic slave of medicine!” She laughed, “Don’t do anything reckless, Selena. You might kill that beast and I’m not bringing another cat in.” She huffed, “If you were here, I’d climb on your shoulders to get it down. What if he falls? You know he’s like a fat 8 kg ragdoll cat right?! Omg, Cass! He’s playing with that lamp thin
Cassandra went to take a third serving of the chicken tacos Selena had cooked for them for dinner when she saw the cat sitting there, looking at her innocently. She tsked, sidestepping it and stared in horror as she saw colored paw print all over her floor, “Selena. Come here right now.” “I can’t. I’m busy.” She glanced at her. She was still sitting in a corner of the living room in front of another canvas and she rolled her eyes, “Your cat is putting paint everywhere!” “Ahh… okay.” “It’s not okay.” She frowned towards the cat and it purred at her, rubbing its head against her pants. She leaned down, opened her hands wide and grabbed it by the stomach, hastily lifting it off the floor. She ran towards the bathroom as the cat meowed at her and she dropped it in the bathtub. She adjusted the water till it was warm, grabbed a tiny toothbrush and a towel. To her amazement, the cat was purring softly as it licked the water that was flowing. Cassandra s
Selena had never felt the need to come so badly. She had begged the doctor again and again but that evil woman had only tormented her even more. She felt so sensitive down there. She could hear her body still humming with blissful desire, aching to be quenched. She quietly brought her hand between her legs and shuddered when the doctor flung her arm around her waist, sounding a bit annoyed, “What did I say last night?” “Cass…” She closed her eyes, loving the feel of her body against hers as the doctor spooned her. “I trust you won’t disobey again...or you know what will happen.” She playfully blew into her ear, nibbling her. Selena turned around, pouting as she caressed the doctor’s face, “So what really was there in that box, huh? Don’t tell me it’s perfume. I know that’s not it.” Cassandra laughed, seeing how skeptical she looked, “Take a guess.” She whined, “I really don’t know. I’m an idiot.” “You’re not an idiot. You’re just innocently naïve. What did I use between your legs la
There was a minute of silence before Megan raised an eyebrow and haughtily said, “Ah, there’s the other kitten. Come here, cutie.” Cassandra dryly asked, “What are you doing on the floor?” Embarrassment coursed through her as she shot to her feet and baffled, “I was not spying on you!” She gazed at the officer who seemed amused and then at Cassandra who was simply annoyed. “Come join us for breakfast. This is lieutenant Megan Brooks but you already met, I believe.” When the woman extended her hand, she gulped, shaking it, noting the firm grip. Megan teased, brushing her thumb across her knuckles, “So you’re still here, mmh? I was waiting for that call, darling.” Selena snatched her hand away, “Why did you come here again?!”Cassandra felt the tension in her voice and before she could say anything, Megan stood, crossing her arms, not liking her tone, “Well, Ms Chase. I’m the officer in charge of your case. The hospital has reported that you’ve been sexually abused by your ex-boyfrien
