Appointment
I looked up at his face and my eyes stinging with tears. He was right. I never thought that what I was doing was a form of suicide. He took my hand and patted it once more as he smiled and walked away.
Then I was walking down the street, not knowing where exactly I was going, thinking about my conversation with the priest when I stopped in front of Noodle Restaurant. My stomach tied itself in knots as I stared through the window remembering how I made Mu Kai eat noodle with chopstick. I lightly smiled as I stepped into the cafe that was next door.
The aroma of coffee was making me salivate as I ordered a mocha latte. I took my latte and sat at a table towards the back. Then I looked at the time on my phone.
It was already 2 pm. I dialled the phone number that kept constantly calling me for the past 4 months.
"Good afternoon, Dr. Fang office, how may I help you?" The perky voice on the other end spoke.
"Hi this is Ru Wen. I need to make an appointment to see Dr. Fang"
