Glorious! That was the word stuck in Mindy's head. She had a great date with Josh last night and he kissed her. A slow smile crept across her face as she thought about it, hands gripped tight on the bar standing in the middle of a subway car. She remembered how good a kisser he was, his hands resting on her hips as he made her float on cloud nine with his lips. 'Im definitely not gonna screw this one up', she thought to herself. Despite his tiny idiosyncrasies, Josh was everything she hoped for.

Mindy practically skipped into her office. Her good mood could not be tampered with. She was very happy at the moment.

"Dr. L did you get the last soft pretzel from the stand around the corner or something? You look so happy?" Morgan inquired when he saw her come in. Betsy and Danny were also at the front desk. Danny did not look in Mindy's direction, he instead took the file her had perusing and went to his office closing the door behind him.

Mindy had known it would be awkward seeing him in the office after what happened on the weekend. She was not expecting him to talk to her, look at her or even acknowledge her presence in a room. She expected it, but for some reason it felt worse than she had prepared herself for. They had never been in a fight like this before. "No Morgan. I had a awesome date this weekend!" she finally replied.

"You met someone Dr. L? Is he handsome?" Betsy chimed in.

"Matter of fact Betsy, he is. He's tall, blonde and he has the most gorgeous blue eyes. I couldn't have picked a better choice for myself."

"Is your boyfriend Ryan Gosling?" Morgan asked a little too seriously.

"I wish Morgan, but this one is a close second. I will send you all pictures. I took tons of selfies on our date yesterday. I'll just send a group message."

"I'm so happy for you Dr. L. I hope you marry this one. Imagine a office wedding." Betsy was moving far ahead of Mindy but the thought made her smile.

She set about going into her office as it was already 9:30am and her first patient would be arriving in 15 minutes. As she walked to her office though, she stuck to her promise of sending pics of her new boyfriend to everyone. Mindy settled in her office and booted up her computer as she glanced over Mrs. Webers file before she arrived.

Danny heard the chirping of his cellphone. He was in his office actively avoiding Mindy Lahiri. He was stewing in his anger at this point. The fact that he could not be free to do as he pleased in his own place of work bothered him. She's the reason he was holed up in his office like some rat, she's the cause of his discomfort, she is the reason for everything he was feeling.

He made his way to his jacket hanging on the coat rack by his door, he had left his cellphone in the pocket. As he swiped the screen and checked the messaged, he visibly grew redder with anger. His entire body suddenly felt 10 degrees hotter and his ears felt as if steam was about to shoot through them. The message had been from Mindy. Pictures of that same guy from the club with the text 'isn't he the hottest'.

'Oh no! She's gonna hear what was on his mind this morning', Danny thought. He was willing to ignore her, but sending him pictures, to what, taunt him?! He wasn't gonna put up with that. He stormed straight into her office, slamming the door shut behind him.

"I can't do this right now Danny?" Mindy said before he even got a chance to get a word out. She was shocked that he was in her office right now. Shocked, but not docile. Whatever was on his mind could wait.

"What?! You self centred little brat! You really don't care about any one else do you?! Unbelievable!" Danny could not get the words he actually wanted to say out. He instead turned to cheap insults. He saw her gasp when he called her self centred. She sat with her face in shock as she registered the venom with which the words spewed from his mouth.

Danny did not wait for her to regain her ability to speak, he continued, "I don't want to know what flavour of the month you're on so don't send me pictures of your date. Save that crap for your little girlfriends! It's enough I have to watch you shove your tongue down his throat, but to actually have you send me pictures?! Are you trying to torture me?!"

Words were just flowing from Danny's mouth. She still sat in her chair dumbfounded by his aggression. He didn't notice this however, because his eyes were closed as he let everything he was mad about spill.

He tightened his eyes to the point where his face hurt. "You trapped me in your little Barbie doll world where everything is all sunshine and rainbows! I didn't ask you for this! I was completely fine living my lonely life. I had a structure. I had a reason for everything I did. Then you! You completely derailed everything. And now you want to rub your boyfriend in my face. People have feelings Mindy!"

Danny didn't know what came over him. He had never suffered from such verbal diarrhea before. This was all her. Not him. He didn't act this way. He opened his eyes cautiously. All the words he had said playing in his head over and over again.

Mindy was so shocked. She sat lifeless in her chair, unable to form a thought or to process properly what he had just said. "I have an appointment right now Danny." That's all Mindy could manage to say. It was as if some sort of robot had taken over her body. There was no sign of any emotion in her voice. It's as if she hadn't heard a word he said.

Danny stood looking at her, confused at her lack of a response. He was so flummoxed he turned on his heels and left her office. He saw that everyone had gathered at the front desk and they all stared at him as he made his way back to his own office. He didn't feel the need to stop and try to give them some fake explanation. They had clearly heard everything that was said. Only an idiot wouldn't understand what was going on.

Danny paced in his office. Righteous in his anger. Did she not care about anything he had said? Was she so far gone? He spilt his guts, no matter how rudely he may have done so, he had done it. And what? Nothing! She had an appointment! Who gave a fuck about her appointment?! The more Danny thought about it, the angrier her got. There was no way he was going to be able to see patients being in the mood he was in. He grabbed his jacket and his bag and headed out.

"Betsy, please cancel my appointments scheduled for today. I'm taking the rest of the day off."

"Okay Dr. C." Betsy replied eagerly and with that, Danny left the office.

Mindy was still seated at her desk, only now, she had folded her hands atop it with her head resting on it. She could not believe Danny had just spoken to her like that. He didn't give her a chance to explain anything. It was a mistake. She surely did not mean to send him the pictures. Why would she do that, they weren't even being friendly! It was all a mistake and he unraveled himself in front of her so quickly, she didn't have time to explain that to him.

What were all those things he said? What had she done that was so bad? All she ever did was try to be his friend. How was she supposed to know he didn't want that? He certainly never said anything. Of course she knew people had feelings. She was always mindful of that. Where does he get of?! All this because of some damn pictures?

Mindy didn't know where to start nor how to start processing her feelings, instead she shoved them aside and called for Betsy to usher Mrs. Weber in. 'Danny was not going to get off the hook this easily' she thought. As soon as she finished with her clients for the day and conferences with Gwen, she was gonna let him have a piece of her mind. Serve it up to him just as he did her.
