As days pass, Daven and Brittney haven't yet gotten closer as they were before and this is what Brittney feared the most. Daven discovers that Brittney is a police officer and the city they live in is very hazardous than he imagined.
Today was Daven's appointment for his checkup and he was pretty much annoyed about it as he didn't think it was necessary. After leaving the house with Brittney, it was his first time to step outside as he would usually stay inside the whole day, especially in his study room.
They stood next to the road waiting for a cab. It was a hot day today, and standing in the sun was not for Daven as the heat made him feel a light headache.
After waiting for 5 minutes, he couldn't take it anymore and looked at Brittney who had sweat on her forehead.
" Why don't you have a car? I'm melting here."
Hearing his last sentence, she looked at his forehead which was dry, unlike her sweaty forehead. She looked left then right before responding to his question. " I like walking." Her eyes could already tell that she was lying, but Daven asked no more although he was curious to know.
When he sees a cab coming from afar driving really fast, his hopes were up and he lazily stopped it with a smile. " Finally."
The cab stopped Infront of them, but Brittney said the unthinkable. " Sorry we are not getting in."
As Daven who was opening the backseat door heard this, his mood changed drastically. For a second, he froze then huffed. " Yes we are." He proceed to open the door wider for him to get in.
Brittney found it funny as he doesn't have any money on him. " I wonder where are you going to get the money to pay for the fare."
Daven who was already sitting at the backseat froze like a statue. He immediately left planet earth with his mind wondering somewhere in the galaxy.
Seeing no movement from the person at the backseat, the driver was getting impatient and asked, " Are going or staying? "
" He is staying." She pulled him out of the cab and closed the door. When Daven returned to earth, the cab was no longer in their sight.
Immediately he stomps his feet childishly and looked at Brittney coldly. " I don't want to lose my temper in such heat..."
Brittney didn't look at him but she could feel his cold aura encircling her. " Did you see how madly fast he was driving... what if an accident happens..."
She was interrupted by Daven who had a grin on his face." And what if I die in such heat? "
" I'm already sweating more than you, why am I not dead yet? " Brittney has already gotten used to him and talks back sometimes if he is being ridiculous.
"Pff! "
Few seconds later, a cab stopped Infront of them and they quickly got When the car started moving, seating by the window, he rolled it down for a cool fresh air. But as soon as hot air brushed on his face, he quickly got his face away from the window and sat lazily looking outside for view.
The seat didn't seem to be much dangerous as told by Brittney. It has such a nice view in every corner of the street. ' Could it be that she was just exaggerating? This city looks calm and harmless.' Thinking of this, he softly muttered, " Women."
Brittney who had other thoughts, she received a text message, and revealed a smile when reading it. Daven was curious, but didn't pay attention to her anymore as soon as he is reminded by something, and continued to watch outside the car window.
Soon they stopped next to the big hospital. Daven was mesmerized by how huge this hospital was. It made him feel so small. He couldn't believe it that didn't notice this last time he was here.
When they entered the inside of the hospital, all eyes were on them for a moment making Daven feel uncomfortable.
" Is that lady Brit? " a soft whisper was heard by Daven.
' Lady Brit? ' Frowning, he secretly glanced at Brittney who seemed like she didn't hear anything.
Brittney is known as Lady Brit because she is the first and only woman that is a police officer that is brave enough to serve in this dangerous city. For this she is respected by every citizen and loved for her kindness.
Daven wanted to ask but swallowed his question and continued to walk forward. When they got in the lift that was almost full, Daven almost stopped the lift immediately and sprang out as he felt really uncomfortable when he made little movements and something brushed against his back.
When he turned his head around, this huge, muscular man winks at him. Immediately, he turns his head back with a shiver running down his spine. ' I feel sorry for the person that has to take in this huge log of this man.' Daven wanted to get out really fast but the lift took its own time which angered him.
When they finally reached their floor, Daven was the first to walk out which puzzled Brittney. As they walked, two nurses who were chatting to each other were coming in their direction. As they got closer, Brittney who had been silent almost all the way here smiled and calls out in excitement.
" Tara! Frita! "
" Brittney!! " Both said.
They rushed forward and hugged Brittney.
Seeing them embracing each other made Daven feel like an outsider. He secretly rolled his eyes. " Girls "
" Wow! You've grown into a beautiful woman, ain't it right Tara? I'm now beginning to get jealous." Frita pulls out her pitiful face which made them giggle happily.
" Oh Frita, you've haven't changed after all this years? That's more than I could ask for." Brittney said in a cheerful voice.
" Cute things don't change Hun." Frita displayed her proud face she always show off.
" Eww who told you that you are cute? What the best joke to tell." Tara pretended to be annoyed and rolled her eyes at Frita.
Frita was about rebuke when she finally noticed a man that looked familiar standing next to Brittney. " Who's this? " After the question was asked, all the eyes were on him.
Brittney's heart started to beat fast as she didn't know how to introduce Daven to them.
Seeing her not saying anything Daven was about to speak when Frita spoke.
" Wait, don't tell me that he's..."
She was interrupted by Tara who secretly pinched Frita's waist. " Oh right, we have to get going now. Let's meet up again at lunch." she knew very well that nothing good was going to come out from Frita's mouth if she had let her finish.
" Okay bye. " Brittney didn't want to stay any longer and quickly left.
