MAKARIA'S POV
“Are you done treating him, Doc?” As I passed through the hallway, I met the doctor just right after she went out from the clinic door.
“Yes, just a few minutes ago”
“Okay thanks” then I immediately walked past her and went inside the clinic to look for him, Thanatos. He's currently sitting beside the bed while looking at his gauzed arms.
“Hey, where did you go? Earlier you told me that you will call the doctor. The doctor came here a few minutes after you left and you're not even with her. She told me that she didn't even see you.” I expected him to ask questions but I don't mind, as of now it is not that important.
“It doesn't matter. I just want to ask you something”
“What is it? You look worried, what happened” I sat beside him and I looked straight at his face… but then, he turned away. Oh crap, he still can't stay looking at my eyes? Am I that gorgeous to him?
“Do you want to stay with me?” I courageously asked. It is not something that I always say! It is somehow new to me and… I feel like I want to puke. I can't believe that I have asked him that.
“What do you mean?”
“Do you want to be with me… I mean here… beside me and… stuff” oh crap I don't even know what to say. I can't believe this.
“Beside you? Like this? I am beside you?” he innocently said as he pointed to the small gap between us right now. Really? He is an actual dumb.
“Oh God, Thanatos come on! Do you want us to be together?!”
“Together? As in… together like boyfriend and girlfriend stuff?” crap, how can I explain it to him!!! I am not into any kind of relationship thingy… it's just… damn! I don't know what it is. Like we're together but we're also not together kind?
“Uhmmm, less than that? Be with me always like wherever I go, you're there”
“Why? You're weird” I know, I am. And I don't even understand why.
“Just always be with me, okay?”
“Why? Why are you like that? Is that part of being pregnant?”
“Ah yes! Haha! Yeah, our… baby wants us to be together always, ya know!” and… I act again. Whatever he thinks I just ride it on.
“You're weird. I didn't know that being pregnant is kinda weird” Damn it! I am getting weirder because of that woman. I know Thanatos is confused by what is happening to us right now but he's getting more confused because I AM SAYING STRANGE THINGS RIGHT NOW.
I don't even know why I bother telling these kinds of stuff to him…
As if I was really affected by Nemesis…

---FLASHBACK---
“You, you are Nemesis, right?” I quickly asked because I am being so confused right now! What is going on? Dianna and… her? Do they know each other? Am I interpreting it correctly? The heck! I am not expecting this kind of situation!
.
.
“I am. And I’m here to tell you that… you should leave Thanatos alone” what the? I was surprised by what she said. So she personally went here to say that? Hmm… interesting.
“Why should I?”
“Dianna, you can leave us already. I can handle this. Thank you” she didn't answer me, instead, she asked Dianna to leave. So she wants a one on one talk.
“So the two of you really know each other?” I asked her as I raised one of my eyebrows. After all the years that Dianna worked here, I didn't even know that Nemesis and her are connected. But how?
“It is a long story, but anyways, to answer your question… Why should you leave him? Well, you really don't know who he is or what he is. If you'd be able to discover, I am sure that you'll regret being close to him”
Is she making me laugh? Because it sounds funny.
“Hey, I don't even understand what you are talking about. Aside from that, who are you to him? Are you his ex or something?” Then I smiled. I am not taking her so seriously because I don't see her as a threat.
“What ex? We don't have any kind of relationship like that. But I am telling you, the both of you together? It will be a chaos”
“As if you know our future? I can't see that you have a say between us” she is stubborn and stupid. By the way she acts, I can misinterpret her as an ex who can't move on.
“You have to listen to me! Thanatos can't be bound to any woman, especially you. You should stay away from him” she suddenly grabbed one of my arms, and I was surprised. How dare she?! What is wrong with her?!
I shove it away as I walk close to her with confidence.
“What if I don't?”
“Then, I will make you.”
“Are you threatening me? Here? In my own company? You really have the courage huh?” She can't do that. I am not afraid of her.
“Because I need to”
“You cannot scare me. As a matter of fact, only Thanatos can decide if he wants to stay with me or not. Why don't you talk to him? Why me?” I can confidently say that Thanatos will stay with me. He won't leave me, I know. Aside from the fact that he likes me… even if he's not admitting it, he also thinks that we are having a baby so… yeah, apparently Thanatos is mine.
“Because… b-because…” well… well… she can't even think of a good reason.
“Because what? Well, I just want you to know that… I am aware of you and him having a not so good bond right now. Because if you two are okay, he'd be still living with you”
“Stop it. You don't have any idea about us”
“Oh yeah, that's right. But between you, and me? He'll definitely listen to me. So please get out of my building now!” then I point her to the exit. I don't want her to stay here for a few more minutes! She's annoying me and my baby…
Oops…
I forgot, I really don't have a baby!
“You'll regret this. I am telling you, you are going to regret this!” I can't be threatened by her. She is like a stupid weak woman.
“Are you leaving or… should I call some guards to drag you out of my company?”
“I warned you. You didn't listen. If something happened especially to Thanatos, I will definitely get back to you. I won't be allowing myself to make the same mistake as before”
“Are you crazy? Get out!”
And with that… she left with frustration.
---END OF FLASHBACK---
How dare she tell me all of those threats? She is not very significant.
Well… well…
I have a better idea to insult her.
It seems like Thanatos is so precious to her and she can't even see him with someone else…
“So… Thanatos, what do you think of… staying in my place?”
“What?!”
