❤ Liv's POV ❤
I kept moaning as Aaron slowly moved in and out of me. It was my first time, and I could feel a little pain, but the pleasure took over. My moans kept getting louder as I felt myself reach my peak.
I screamed Aaron's name as I did. He kept thrusting until I heard him grunt and say "I'm coming."

❤ Three Months Ago ❤
I woke up early today because it's my mom's dialysis day. Since she was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease five years ago, she has had to get dialysis three times a week, at least until she gets a new kidney.
My mother started getting sick a year after my father passed away. I was ten years old, and I didn't fully understand what was happening to my mother. All I knew was that I had to stay with the neighbors whenever she had to go to the hospital. I hated staying with the neighbors, as they always made me do housework and didn't even feed me.
When I got older, I insisted on coming to the hospital with my mother, particularly when she started getting dialysis.
When I turned 16, I had to get a job to help my mother pay for dialysis. When my father passed away, she had a health benefit that got transferred to my mother, so she got a discount for the procedure. Still, she still had to shell out around seven thousand pesos weekly.
I am an only child, and since my father is gone and my mother can no longer work, I was the only one left who could help my mother pay for her treatment.
I am a minor, so I could only work part-time. I worked at a fast food chain in the morning, at a convenience store in the afternoon, and in a high-end restaurant as a dishwasher at night.
I don't have any rest days and the times when I have to accompany my mother to her dialysis is the only time that I get a break from work. It's very tiring, but I didn't mind, since I am doing it for my mother.
I left once I saw that my mother was hooked up to the dialysis machine. Companions are not allowed in the treatment area and my mother usually sleeps during the procedure anyway, so there was no need for me to stay there. I go to the hospital cafeteria sometimes to catch up on my reading or watch whatever's playing on the television in the cafeteria. It's usually some kind of telenovela. I don't usually care much about what's playing, but I don't really have a choice.
I went to get some coffee from the vending machine and when I turned around, I ran into a man and spilled half of my coffee of him.
I gasped as I said, "Oh my gosh, I am so sorry."
I proceeded to pull out the handkerchief from my back and started wiping the coffee off the man. I spilled most of them on his shirt. I hope I didn't burn him.
The man took the handkerchief from me and said "It's okay. Don't worry about it."
Liv: "I didn't burn you, did I?"
The man chuckled, and I couldn't help but look up. When I saw his face, I froze. He's very attractive, and his face looks so kind.
The man smiled and chuckled once more. I looked down in embarrassment as I realized I had been looking at him for too long.
Liv: "I'm sorry."
Attractive Man: "Stop apologizing. You didn't burn me."
I moved back and said, "I can wash your shirt for you to take the stain off."
The man put his hand up and said "There's no need for that. I'll just throw it away."
Liv: "No, don't do that. It looks like an expensive shirt. I promise you, I can get that stain off."
The man put a hand on my shoulder and said "Don't worry. It's all good."
He then winked at me before turning around and leaving the cafeteria.
As I sat at one of the tables, I couldn't stop thinking about the handsome man. I wonder who he is.
---------------------------------------------
The next time I brought my mother to the hospital for her dialysis, I ran into the handsome man again. This time, he approached me at the table and said "Can I join you?"
I gasped when I saw who it was and said "Yes, of course."
The man was holding two cups of coffee in his hands, and he placed one of them in front of me.
I looked at the man in wonder and said "Uhm, what is this?"
Attractive Man: "It's coffee. To replace the one you spilled last time."
Liv: "Oh, there's no need for this. I'm the one who owes you a shirt."
Attractive Man: "Don't worry about it. I'm Aaron, by the way."
Liv: "I'm Olivia-- Liv."
Aaron: "Olivia. What a beautiful name. It suits you."
I felt myself blushing so I bowed my head. I didn't know how to respond to a compliment, so I didn't say anything.
Aaron smiled at me and asked, "So, what brings you to the hospital?"
Aaron is a relative stranger, but for some reason, I felt comfortable talking to him. I told him about how my mother is getting dialysis treatment thrice a week, and that she needs to continue doing so until she gets a kidney transplant.
Aaron seems to know a lot about kidney disease, as well as treatment, which led me to assume that he must be a doctor. He looks too young to be a doctor, so it's possible that he could be a medical student.
Unfortunately, Aaron had to leave. Before he did, he said "It was nice meeting you, Liv. I hope to see you again."
I smiled and waved goodbye to Aaron. I now have something to look forward to in our next hospital visit.
