*_Chapter 21_*
*Natasha’s POV*
“Thank you Dr Natasha”, my patient said and she left.
I relaxed on my chair a bit and waited patiently to see if any patient was going to show up, but no one did, so I had to take a break.
I looked for Oscar’s file and saved his contact on my phone and then I called him.
“Hello Oscar”.
“Hey Nat, I’ve been waiting for your call, I thought you were going to bail”, he said in a cocky tone.
“How do you even know that it’s me”, I asked.
“You pronounce my name in a different way”, he said and I laughed.
“Okay, I’m free now”.
“Alright, I’ll be there in like 20 minutes”, he said.
“Alright, I’ll be waiting”, I said and I hanged up.
************
Oscar took me to my favourite restaurant and as we got out of the car, I spotted June’s car and it just changed my mood.
When we walked in, I saw him sitting with Freda and it made me get jealous. Before I could look away he spotted me and he waved.
I didn’t know if I should wave back or not. I’m not going to pretend to be cool with him, so I didn’t wave back, I just looked away.
“Where do you want to sit?” Oscar asked me and I took him to my sitting spot. Luckily for us, no one was there. When I sat down, I realised that June’s table was facing ours but I didn’t care to change places. He doesn’t get to control my life.
“Are you okay?” Oscar asked me.
“Yeah”, I said, taking the menu off the table and flipping through the pages.
“Mmm, I don’t mean to pry but I saw you ignore the guy that waved at you”, he said.
“You’re not prying. You’re my psychologist and patient, remember?” I said and he laughed.
“So what’s up with the guy who waved?” he asked me.
“That’s June. We’re no longer together”, I said, sadly.
“Woah, what happened?” he asked and I told him everything from when he disappeared and how he returned to break it off.
“It’s been difficult getting over him and I it annoys me when I see him around. When I was with him, he didn’t have that time to be taking me out to lunch and now he’s always taking her out”, I said, getting angry.
“Hey, don’t even think about that. It’s not you, it’s him. Don’t worry about what he does, that’s what I do. If Mabel should come in here with a different guy, I wouldn’t even notice them because I don’t want to care. You just don’t stop caring, you have to control your mind to do it”, he said to me.
“I think you should have been a psychologist”, I said, laughing.
“No, I can’t stand listening to a lot of problems”, he said and I laughed.
“We’ve been talking too much about nothing, let’s make out orders”, he said, calling the waiter.
We gave out our orders and talked till the food arrived.
As we started eating, I kept glancing a June and Freda, they looked so happy.
“Nat, let’s put on a show”, Oscar said and I was confused.
“Don’t tell me it’s childish or any psychological thing you have to say. Let’s get June’s attention”, he said and I shook my head.
“I’m giving you the chance to use me”, he said grinning.
“Let’s just try it, it’s going to be fun and I bet you that June will get uncomfortable and leave”, he said and I agreed hoping that I wouldn’t embarrass myself that much.
“Now, start laughing out really loud and hit my shoulders”, he said and I shook my head.
“Oscar, I’m a lady”, I said.
“So laugh out loud like a lady”, he said and I don’t know how I did it, but I found myself laughing out really loud and making comments like ‘Oh my God’ ‘Oscar, you’re so funny’ and a whole lot of things.
“He’s looking”, Oscar said and I kept on laughing.
We did other silly stuff like he feeding me, poking my cheek and whispering silly things in my ear.
“June is getting uncomfortable already”, he said. “Okay, now pull your chair backwards and laugh again”, Oscar said and I did it. This time, June and Freda go up and left.
“It worked”, Oscar said, laughing.
“After today, I’m not stepping my foot here again”, I said and Oscar kept on laughing.
“You’re really good at acting. I think you should quit your job, you’ve found your calling”, he said and I glared at him.
When we were done with our food, we left and he took me back to the hospital.
“I’ve never laughed this much or had so much fun like this. Thank you Oscar”, I said.
“Anytime, Nat. Thank you too. It’s been a while since I laughed this much too, I’ll look forward to this again” he said and I smiled.
I got out of the car and waved at him. He drove off and I walked into the hospital.
Today was really fun. You should have seen the look on June’s face. I’m sure he was wondering why I was laughing like that and which guy I was with. When I was with him, I didn’t have any close male friend; I had to put some space between them and me for June’s sake. I know he’ll be wondering where I got Oscar from. Why am I even overthinking this, he probably didn’t care and left because I was making a fool of myself.
Well. I don’t really care too. I had so much fun, acting and doing silly things. Oscar is something else. April needs to meet him, they’ll really get along.
I finally got to my office and work started again.
*Oscar’s POV*
I was still in a good mood. My time with Natasha today was really worth it. It made me forget the stress and drama I went through.
My mood changed when I got home. Mabel was in my house.
“What are you doing here?😑😑” I asked.
