My Obsessive Doctor

When Alberto was working, his phone suddenly rang. Alberto immediately asked Vega for permission to pick up the call first.

“Vega, I’m sorry! I want to answer the call first!”

“Why?” asked Vega in confusion while she frowned because it’s unusual for Alberto to ask permission to pick up the call during working hours.

“I have a call from my parents.” Alberto answered.

“Indeed, can’t you delay picking up the call or call your parents later?” asked Vega again.

“You’re at work. How can you pick up the call now?”

“I’m afraid you’ll get scolded again and bullied more by your seniors here. I feel pity for you if that happens.”

Vega is indeed worried that Alberto will be bullied and scolded by his seniors again. Of course, she also feels pity if that happens.

“The problem is that the call is from my parents. I’m afraid there’s something wrong with them that forces them to call me now.”

Alberto expressed his fear and worry, because indeed they haven’t contacted each other for a long time. Alberto’s parents never call him if there’s nothing important.

Usually, they will send a message or start a chat and ask Alberto for permission to call. If Alberto allows them to call, then Alberto’s parents will call him.

“What if something bad happens to them and they have to call me right now? Is that right?” Alberto asked.

“Yeah, but I’m worried about you, Alberto.” Vega complained.

“What should I do?” Vega immediately started thinking about what Alberto should do so that he could pick up the call and wouldn’t be bullied.

Meanwhile, the phone kept ringing. It was the second time Alberto had received a phone call.

Alberto immediately asked for permission. “I’m sorry! I must go now.”

At that moment, Vega had an idea. “Alberto, please, pick up the call in the toilet! You’ll be caught if you pick up the call outside the toilet.”

“Okay, Vega.” Alberto went straight to the toilet.

When he arrived at the toilet, fortunately, it was empty. He went straight into the toilet and turned on the water tap.

After that, he picked up the call from his parents and heard a warm greeting from Alberto’s mother. “Hi, Alberto!”

“Hi, Mom!” greeted Alberto.

“Where are you? I hear the sound of water,” Alberto’s mother asked, because she was confused by the sound of water.

“I’m in the toilet. I’m working now. I ask permission to take a call from you, Mom.” Alberto answered.

“So, what’s wrong, Mom?” asked Alberto quickly, because he was curious about why his mother was calling him.

“Alberto, I heard that you had sex at Rege Hospital with a woman. Is that true?” asked Alberto’s mother to the point.

The question made Alberto feel very surprised. His eyes immediately bulged.

His heart was beating fast. He was afraid of being scolded by his parents because it’s considered rude and impolite to have sex in a hospital, which is a public place.

Although some people think it’s normal to have sex in a public place, Alberto’s parents don’t share this view. They still thought that it was rude and impolite.

Moreover, Alberto’s status is that of an intern at that place. Of course it’s rude and so impolite for Alberto’s parents!

Alberto immediately asked a question. “How do you know?”

“Just answer it! Yes or no. Don’t ask, “How do I know?” Alberto’s mother asked sternly, which scared Alberto and forced him to confess because he had no other choice.

There’s no way he can lie to his parents because he feels that his lies will surely be exposed in the end. Besides, his parents have already asked him that question.

That means his parents already knew the truth from other people, but they pretended that they didn’t know and asked Alberto. Because of that, Alberto only said “Yes.”

“Wow! You already have a girlfriend there, right?” asked Alberto’s mother excitedly.

“Yes.”

“What’s her name?” Alberto’s mother was curious about the name of Alberto’s girlfriend.

“Vega.” Alberto mentioned Vega’s short name.

“How come you never introduced Vega to me?” asked Alberto’s mother.

Alberto immediately thought of an excuse. At that moment, his mother said.

“I’m so disappointed to know that you don’t introduce her to me and your dad. You should have introduced her to me and your dad.” His mother said this with great disappointment because she felt she was not being considered by Alberto.

“So, we know where your girlfriend is from you. Not from another person.”

“Indeed, who told you?” asked Alberto curiously. He was really curious about the person who reported to Alberto’s parents.

“Hmmh… It’s confidential! Secret!” said Alberto’s mother, because she didn’t want to tell them who the person who told them was.

“Ah, Mom! Please tell me!” Alberto begged his parents to tell him.

“A secret is always a secret, Alberto. There’s no way I’m telling you.”

“If I tell you, it’s no longer a secret again. Isn’t it?”

That’s the motto of Alberto’s parents. They always keep and maintain secrets very well.

“Ah, Mom!” complained Alberto in a spoilt style.

“So, that’s it! Just answer my question! Instead of diverting the topic like that.” Alberto’s mother asked.

“So, why didn’t you introduce her to your mom and dad?” Alberto’s mother repeated her question.

“Hmmh. She’s busy, Mom.” Alberto tried to make an excuse.

Busy was the only reason that came to Alberto’s mind at that time. No other reason came to his mind at that time.

“Yes, but as busy as she is and you are, how come you and she don’t have time to go to your parents’ house, Alberto? How long does it take to go to your parents’ house? It’s only an hour at most, right?” asked Alberto’s mother.

“Yeah, that’s true,” said Alberto.

“Or do you need me and your dad to come to her parents’ house or her house to get to know her parents or her?” asked Alberto’s mother, which made Alberto feel even more scared because he was not ready.

He had only been dating Vega for two days. So, how can his parents have already come to Vega’s parents’ house or Vega’s house?

That’s so impossible! He can’t imagine if that happens.

“Whoa! Don’t do that, Mom. No need!” said Alberto quickly.

“I only became her boyfriend for two days. How can you and dad come to Vega’s parents’ house or Vega’s house?” asked Alberto panickedly.

“Then you should bring Vega to our house. There’s no other choice,” said Alberto’s mother.

“B-but, Mom…” Alberto wanted to argue, but his mother cut off his words.

“No buts! It’s fixed.”

“You have to bring Vega to our house. I’ll be waiting for you this week.” Alberto’s mother said

That made Alberto only say. “Okay.”

“I’ll wait for you and Vega! Just let me know if you and Vega want to come here so I can prepare it first. said Alberto’s mother.

“Okay.” Not long after, the call ended. Alberto patted his forehead and asked in his heart.

“Damn! What should I do?”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Will she want to be brought to my parents’ house? What should I do to bring her to my parents’ house?”

“Should I persuade her if she doesn’t want to go there? And if I’ve persuaded her but she still refuses, what should I do? What can I do?” Alberto asked himself.
