Stone-faced, Wesley squinted at Damon and teased, “Am I a man or not?
You want to check it for yourself?” Then he dropped the F word, in such a casual way, you’d think he was a crackhead from the backstreets.
A chuckle rang in the corridor all of a sudden. But obviously, it was not Damon who had let out this chirpy chuckle.
‘Who’s that Laughing?”
In confusion, the two of them simultaneously turned and looked towards the elevator, where the chuckle had cfrom. There stood near the elevator was a woman, staring at them with a smiling face that indicated she had stood there for stime, watching them argue. ‘Holy cow!’ Wesley cursed when he realized it was Blair.

Earlier, they had reached the hospital together and then separated, each one to their own businesses. Wesley had cto visit Carlos while
Blair had cto visit her friend. She said there was something she wanted to pick from the friend. They’d agreed to meet later on, and
Wesley would drive her back home.
It only happened that Blair didn’t take long at her friend’s place.
Since she had a lot of ton her hands, she had done a little window shopping on the street nearby the hospital and gone to a cafe for coffee until it was tto chere as agreed. For a few minutes, she had tried to wait outside, but it was a Little too cold. So she decided to cin and head upstairs
where she knew he was. But the moment she stepped out of the elevator, she had accidentally overheard an improper talk that was going on between these two men. Stealthily, she had sneaked up on them, until she couldn’t move anymore, without being noticed. She had leaned against the wall only a minute before Wesley snapped with the profanity that made her chuckle. But immediately she had realized it was a crude remark that wasn’t funny at all.
Now seeing Blair covering her mouth, as if she was undecided between amusement and anger at his tasteless Language, Wesley asked with a dark face, “Is it funny?”
To which Blair retorted, “It’s more thoughtless than funny, if that’s what you thought. Such a flat joke, unless the two of you are used to such Language from the gutter.” Trying her hardest to maintain a calm face, she added, “I never knew… Wesley, you have homosexual tendency…”
Damon who had stood and watched her reaction quietly now spoke, taking the chance to throw in wisecrack. In a mock gesture of flirting, he echoed Blair’s retort by holding Wesley’s shoulders and winking suggestively.
“Wesley, let’s get a hotel room now.”
Unable to hold back her laughter, she Laughed and shot back, “Oh, now, that’s funny!” Then she noticed Wesley’s deadpan face and angry glare.

Awkward, Wesley softly kicked Damon in the shins and spat coldly, “Get your dirty fingers off my shoulders. I‘11 be at the barracks later. Seeat the camp if you want my pistol!” Then he made two quick steps to
Blair, grabbed her by the arm and left straight away.
When Blair saw the direction which he was dragging her towards, she stammered something in surprise and protested at once.
“Hey, I need to take the elevator!” she excused herself. ‘Is Wesley serious that we are taking the staircase, from right here on the 18th floor!? Jeez! Doesn’t he even care that I’ve been up and down the whole day?’ she thought.
However, ignoring her protest, Wesley dragged her all the way to the exit. Blair still struggled, trying to break free, only for him to tighten his grip around her wrist.
After descending one floor, Blair clutched the railing of the staircase tightly and refused to go on foot anymore.
“I’m not feeling well. You take the stairs and I will take an elevator.”
Wesley turned around, staring at the complaining woman.
