AL 19

CHAPTER 19
"Rachel!" Jenn shouted.
"What?!" I shouted back. I'm currently in the kitchen and she's in the living room.
"Your phone keeps ringing! It's annoying." She ranted making me roll my eyes. 
I know who's been calling me for several times already and I'm really not answering it. 
"Rachel what the fuck!" Jenn cursed. 
That's the cue! I ran towards the kitchen and grab my phone, and I'm right. It's Theo!
I glanced over Jenn who's been staring at her book. Yeah medical book, she's been on a center of embarrassment during her training. Who doesn't when she's been fangirling instead of studying.
She glanced back at me and raised her brows. I just rolled my eyes on her and put my phone on my ear answering the call.
"What?" I walked back to the kitchen. 
"Tomorrow" 
"I told you I won't come. It's not my ticket Theo" I whispered, afraid Jenn will hear me out. 
"Why not?! It's Boyce Avenue Rachel!" 
"Are you crazy?! You have to take Yuna with you not me!" 
"She gave it to me so I can decide who I will bring" 
I tried to reason out but I stopped realizing I won't win over him. He got tons of reasoning, he will go his way no matter what. 
"I'll wait there, you will come" He then ended the call. 
Do I have a choice really?! 
And so the day comes. Wearing a black loose sleeve top paired with my favorite wide pants, I clipped my hair half way. 
I'm already here outside the venue, waiting for the the great THEO. And when I spot someone wearing all black with a mask and shades on, I already knew it is. 
"Great you came" He whispered not stopping and leading the way towards the concert hall. 
Just when we came in, tons of both genders with tarpaulin with the pictures of the band welcome us. Mostly wearing all black as it is the signature color of the band. 
When the concert started, chants and screams echoed the venue and that includes me and Theo. I never felt this happy attending concerts. Unlike when I'm with Jenn, I'm the only one enjoying and hyping with the crowd. Her? Nah, unless it's some teen boy bands especially Kpop. She's very into them these days. 
"That was sick!" Theo chuckled, and I just replied him a smile "Why? Don't tell me you didn't enjoyed it?" 
I was about to reply him when I saw someone not that far from where we are. That familiar fair and slim body, but unlike the innocent face I always see. She's wearing a frown that makes her innocence disappear. 
"What?!" Theo asked seeing my reaction.
I was not responding that makes him follow my eyes.
"Yuna" 
I walked towards her, following her but Theo's grip on my arm stopped me "Let her"
"No Theo" I said, guilt evident on my face "I told you this is not right" 
His brows creased as his grip unhold. I followed Yuna towards the parking area. She's about to get to her car when I stopped her "Wait" 
She faced me with anger "What?! Did you enjoy my ticket?" 
I was surprised, I never imagined she'd be like this. She was that shy and composed in the hospital but now? Gone was it. 
She scoffed "I know Theo won't really come with me even if I beg and kneel and you?" She glared me head to foot "I never thought you're this slut to flirt with your patient" 
I gasped. And her words, gone was that soft spoken girl. Her words are as sharp as her eyes glaring at me. 
"N-no. I mean, it's not my intention. Theo is my patient and also my friend" I tried to explain.
She smirked, "Very unprofessional huh. Have you forgotten, he is your patient. And you're in a first name basis now, really?!" She looked at me unbelievably. 
I was stunned. She's right. That's very unprofessional of me. To think Theo is my patient first before being a friend. 
What am I thinking? 
She left me there. Stunned. Deep in my thoughts. 
***
"Rach. Your phone" I was deep in my thoughts that I didn't notice the ringing. 
"O-oh I'm sorry" Jenn just sighed and left the room with her books. 
What was I really thinking. These days, instead of getting nervous and tired thinking I have to go to the hospital to face the training. I am excited. But why?
I hopped on my seat when my phone starts ringing again. It's Theo. 
Sighing I answered the call " Hey!"
"You left me" He started "What happened?" Concern is evident on his voice. 
"Nothing. I just remembered I have errands to do. Sorry I left without telling you."
I heard him sigh, "Don't do that again!" He exclaimed, anger and worries in his voice making me frown of confusion. "You can't just leave without telling me. You can't leave me there! You have to answer your phone!" 
That made me caught up. What's this?! What is he saying?!
"You can't leave me again!" He stated. Now fear is echoing his voice. It's as if, we don't want to be left and alone. Again. 
"I --- I'm not" I stuttered, not knowing what to say "I'm not leaving Theo" I said. 
I heard his deep sighing on the other hand. As if hearing me say that left all his burdens and bad thoughts behind. 
"You can't leave me again" Now his voice is fading, like it was so hard to pronounce. 
"You can't leave me, okay?" I just nodded at his repeated words, just to assure him of his thoughts. 
"You understand me? You can leave again" And then a soft sobbed followed his voice. 
"Theo, are you fine? What's happening?" I asked in concern. It's makes me concern, "Theo, where are you?!" 
I stood up from my seat. Grabbed my coat on the sofa and picked my purse, waiting for his answer "I go see you now, where are you? Tell me" 
"Don't leave me please" He pleaded making me worries more "Please ... Roseanne"
