Chapter 84 - Doctor Tye (1/2)
Kris was sitting in the car already, waiting for Collin. Collin wondered if he locked the car or not. He shook his head and went to the driver's seat. Usually, Keso would pick him up, but under the circumstances this morning, Collin did.
Collin carefully drove them to the company. They were on the streets later than usual and there was much traffic.
Kris solemnly looked out the window. ”I could have killed her.” He spoke.
”But you didn't.”
”Ugh..” Kris put his hand over his mouth and rested his elbows on his legs.
”Kris.” Whenever Collin or Keso used his first name, it meant they were talking to him as a friend, not an employee. ”When you called me, I expected to arrive with a dead body to clean up.”
”Heh..” A smile formed on Kris's lips. ”Are you mocking me? I haven't killed anyone with my own hands for a year now.”
”But… you also had not had a relapse too since then.”
”Did you call him?”
”I did. He will meet you at your office.”
”You are not shaking?” Collin looked at him through the mirror reflection. He had noticed that Kris had not once been overly aggressive or start shaking.
”No.” Kris looked at his hands.
Collin silently was thankful. Keso was not here and he was the only one who could match Kris when he's not himself. Their group of friends all have their own role, it's funny.
There were six of them altogether and they all go by their nicknames. Cole was Collin's. He was the calamity of the group. Keso, or K, was the big macho older brother. Tye was the doctor. Lay was the cheerful one and Hugh was a bit of everyone else. Then there is Kris, Ada, who was their lovely patient and buddy.
Collin drove the car up front and went to get the door for Kris. Kris got out of the car and directly head to the VIP elevator.
”Good morning, CEO Li.”
”Morning, Ceo Li.”
People greeted him as he passed them. Kris slightly nodded in response and went along his way. He got into the elevator and went straight up to his office floor. His entire floor was staff with males. In the past, he did not want to have rumors starting about him about being gay or sexist, but having female workers on his floor was never successful.
Tye and Hugh made the final decision that no woman was allowed to work on this floor. There were some rumors at the beginning but they all faded away after awhile.
Kris entered his office and Tye was already dozing off on his chair. Tye quickly opened his eyes and got off the chair.
”Didn't I always tell you not to wear your white coat when you enter the building?” Kris spoke.
Tye looked at himself and noticed that he was wearing one. ”You can't blame me. I was taking great care of your vegetable friend.”
Kris sat down on his chair. ”He has a name, you know.”
”I know. But I am trying not to get too attached to my patient… in case they pass on. He is quite handsome.”
”You said that he can wake up if he was under care.”
