Chapter 34: Two truths One lie

I chuckled lightly at how he acted like a cat, “ The doctors said something about nerve damage, but I don't think it will be permanent.  “ I said.

I always thought of ruining the story and reshaping it however I want it to be. I'd always daydream about punching Izana and Kisaki in the face, though that is a far-fetched dream for someone like me—but a reader is allowed to dream, isn't that right?

“ I have to go and talk to your doctor now, I’ll visit you again next time, and please don’t throw pillows at anyone next time “ I told, giving him a small peck on the hair and not giving him a time to say anything back as I hurriedly made my way out. Not missing how his face scrunched up in confusion and embarrassment.

How cute.

It’s best for him to stay still here where I can keep him safe at all costs. There is no need for him to fight Kisaki if it will take away his life.

" Are you free right now, Mx. L? " Catherine stood up straight, I wonder if her back hurts from standing or sitting straight like that.

I gave her a nod as we both silently walked to the elevator and went to the highest level, wherein my office that I rarely use is located.

I sat down at the throne-like seat that Hiroko designed for me, watching as Catherine also sat down and flipped through her papers like the dutiful nurse she is.

" Regarding Baji Keisuke's condition, it won't take him long enough to recover. Approximately 2 weeks from now he might be able to walk, " her news only soured my mood. Judging by how she fidgeted with her forefingers, she's aware of her mistake it seems.

Best nurse my ass. " Hey, do you think I'm paying you a hefty amount of money to give me this kind of garbage quality service? " I said, narrowing my eyes at her as she scrambled on her position.

" I—I apologize! I promise to do better! Please give me one more chance Mx. L! " She begged, bowing her head so low in front of me. Sweating profusely, prolly afraid that I will order to get rid of her existence itself.

I'm not that cruel, sometimes. " I gave you a specific order and you failed to carry out that duty, do you see me as a joke Catherine? " I pressed on,

This is really pissing me off. Brain dead people like her remind me of Hanagaki Takemichi who can't take a hint and it's pissing me off with how I got dragged into this mess. Everything pisses me off, everything's being a bitch.

" This is your last chance, do your job properly and do your tasks correctly. Do you understand? " She nodded at my words, though I could still see her hands tremble. " Words Catherine, do I need to repeat myself every single time? " I said harshly like I was scolding a child who didn't listen.

" I understand Mx. L, thank you for giving me a chance " she replied meekly with her head tilted down. I merely huffed at her reply, she's lucky that her face kinda reminds me of Yuri, otherwise I would've fired her already.

" Increase the amount of medicine, but not enough to kill him, got it? " I ordered, " Make sure that it will take him at least 3 months to walk on his own feet. "

The longer it takes for him to recover, the safer he'll be. I won't let him leave, not until Takemichi fixes his time-leaping problems.
