I'm really sorry I haven't updated for almost a week now.

High School life's getting ahead on me.

It demands most of my time.

Well anyways, hope you like this one & hopefully I will be able to update tomorrow (Filipino Time).

Tnx a lot & I won't be "demanding" for reviews anymore. It's up to you if you like to post something or even PM me. I read it always.

Thank You for being patient with me.

Enjoyyy!

Dr. Olendzki (not sure with her name: p), as usual, was about to finish her round when I arrived.

She stopped when she saw me.

"Again?" she asked, kind of shock.

"What?" I said confused, although I'm not showing it.

"Where is she?" what is she talking about?

"She who?"

"Rose…" Oh. Okay, so that's why. I almost forgot.

"She's not here doctor," I said face neutral.

Her face became confused, then looked embarrassed.

"Oh My Gosh! I'm so sorry Guardian Belikov. I thought she's with you." She said her face turning into pink.

"It's okay. I suppose you're just used to it." I said with a smile.

I always visit her. Okay it's an exaggeration, maybe often. Anyways, I think she gets used to it that most of the time I am here is with a student, Guardian, Moroi & of course who could forget Rose?

Rose's confined here most of the time. Most recently their "adventure" from Spokane where one of the novices, Mason, died.

Dr. Olendzki even joking that she is her Number One student. No one visits her more than Rose does. Anyway, it's not a good thing either to joke about these kind of things.

Dr. Olendzki has been good with us. She's always nice & understanding. She seldom show her emotions to someone she's not close with. But I guess we've got pretty close, but not so much. She understands how much I worry about Rose whenever she's here. It's just good that she don't know me SO well like Rose who can read me like an open book. I shivered. It's really weird in a good way when I'm with Rose & when she can read me. I like to be open with her but I can't, but I guess I'm allowed to just a bit. I feel vulnerable which is really, I mean REALLY weird.

I rarely visit Dr. Olendzki alone. Today is one of those rare days.

I cleared my throat." So, how come you got lost here Guardian Belikov?"

"Oh, is that right? Well I'll just go. Take Care Dr. Olendzki." I said while moving to the exit.

"You know I'm just kidding Belikova! Stop being so dramatic! Besides I haven't even had a visitor since you announced that field experience." She said with a death glare for me.

"Hey, is it really my fault? Am I to be blamed that the novices & moroi students alike are excited for this & don't even want to consult you? Or even fake a broken finger rather fingernail or something?"

"HA-HA! Verry funny Belikov." She said sarcasm winning over her.

"Okay, to make it up to you, you can check me right now & do all the tests you want. NEEDED ones only." I added when she's about to look like jumping & clapping like a little girl. When she heard it she gave me another death glare.

"Fine." She said smiling. I wonder what's behind that smile.

So that's what behind the smile. Dr. Olendzki has been TORTURING me. First, she'd been kind to me, giving me paracetamol for my headache. Then, as I was about to leave, she practically dragged me & I let her. She looked like she's using all her strength. She did all sorts of tests ever known to mankind. Who knows there are so many? She took x-ray, many more. Even though it's my head with the problem. I tried to invite her to eat so she could stop all of these,

After an hour passed.

"Oh, man. My back hurts." I said while faking walking like an elder on a street.

"Stop whining! You're a Guardian, remember?"

"Yes. And if it's okay-," I said.

"It's not."

"I'm not even finished."

"I know what you're going to say."

"What then?"

"It's either please stop or please let me go now."

"Oh come on. I still need to go back, besides all my tests are good. Right?"

"Wrong," she said while getting some of the results.

"What? I'm physically fit." Well I know, that I am. Am I?

"You lack rest that is part of it."

"Fine. Can I go now?"

"Wait." She said while packing her things up.

When she's done, she intertwined our arms & went out.

We're heading to the Guardians 'resto' where most of the Guardians eat but students can also come here.

Today, it's a bit crowded since it's lunch time.

When we entered someone whistled. Every head turned. They kept on starring as we move. Hahaha! Funny we could make these effects on other Guardians but a Strigoi couldn't.

"Whoo! New Girl, Belkov?" someone called out. Well that broke the silence. The other Guardians & others who we're there laughed. Some hid their laughs. Some, smiled. I even managed to give smile. These guys are crazy! Hahah!

"Very Funny, Guys." I said.

"Hey, Dr. Olendzki, …" there were many questions. Left & right.

We took our sits, ordered something to eat while chatting with the Guardians.

As we finished our meal, the other Guardians are still joking around. That is when Alberta sent us messages.

"Guys, Conference Room now. It's from Alberta."

The group quickly dispersed. I decided to escort Dr. Olendzki to the building but she refused.

"You go now. I can take care of myself." She said while packing her things up.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, & besides Alberta might be in a hurry." She said as she & I started to stand up.

"thank you so much!"

"you're welcome & I'm so sorry for torturing you."

"All right. Let's go now." I said.

When we got out of the 'restaurant', we gave our last goodbyes & walked away.
