Aixela's Pov:
I am currently sitting here on the couch while looking at the floor while he was walking around with crossed arms.
"Tell me," He finally stopped walking and stood in front of me. "What happened to your mind and you went outside?"
"Why did you..." He took a deep breath before continuing to scold me. "Why did you go outside?"
"I bought that," I pointed out the detergent while still looking at the floor.
He laughed sarcastically. "How long does it take for you to buy this thing, huh?"
"I've encountered a kid and--"
"Why are you talking to the floor? Is my face placed there?" He nagged.
I slowly looked up at him. "I've encountered a kid on my way home and he's crying. I pity him so I bought him ice cream." I looked back at the floor as he groaned. He's scarier when he's like that.
"That kid has his parents so why do you have to problem his problem?"
"But what if he doesn't have?" I said that made him stunned.
He looked away. "Then why aren't you wearing the pager?"
I scratched my head. "I removed it from my hand when I started doing my laundry and now I can't find it."
And he groaned again. Huhu!
"You're very hopeless. What would you do if we didn't arrive?"
"That's why I'm very thankful for you," I looked at him. "Even though I was not able to push the button of the pager, you still came. You saved me, for the second time."
I gently smiled. "Thank you so much, Officer Dy. I owe you my life." He didn't respond and just looked away. "Sorry for causing you another problem. But, can we not tell this to your Inspector? I know you will be the one to be reprimanded even if it's my fault. I don't want to cause you any trouble again."
He didn't bother to answer my question instead he just ordered me to go to the bathroom. "Just go to the bathroom and take a shower. I know what happened earlier brought you trauma."
I just obeyed it and before finally entering the bathroom, I looked at him once again. "Officer Dy," I called him that made him looked at me. "I was wrong to think that you are so cold and don't have a heart for people like me."
"Thank you for making me calm earlier. It helped me a lot," I continued.
"I didn't do it to help you. My co-officer just told me to," He evaded.
"Even though you were told to do that or not, you still did it. So, thank you..." I smiled at him and entered the bathroom.
¬¬¬
The next day, I woke up feeling that someone was watching me.
"HAA! How long have you been there?" I said and covered my body with a blanket. Is he crazy? Why is he staring at me while leaning against the wall and folding his arms? Oh my! I almost have a heart attack.
"Don't you have any alarm? It's already 6 am. Do you want us to be late?" He asked.
"Us? You mean, you and me?" I clarified. He didn't answer so I expect my answer to be correct. "But why? I thought you--"
"After what happened last night, do you think I will still allow you to stay here by yourself? Maybe later when I do that I won't be able to see you here at home," He spited.
I just smiled.
"Why are you smiling?" He asked.
"I'm just excited because I will be able to see Officer Yzerman and Detective Givenchy again!" I said.
"Really huh?"
I just ignored him and instead started cooking breakfast. After few moments, we finally reached the precinct.
"Xela?" Officer Yzerman said as soon as she saw me.
I smiled at her while walking through her.
"What are you doing here?" She asked. I pouted and write up [Why? Didn't you miss me?] on a paper.
She laughed. "Of course, I missed you," She said.
I pointed my chin twice and lend my hand.
"Huh?"
I giggle. I wrote on a paper and showed it to her. [It means I Miss You Too. I'm studying sign language so I can communicate easily.]
"Woah! That's cool. Teach me sometimes."
I showed her a thumbs up. We were smiling at each other when we noticed that the officers and detectives seem to gossip about something again.
"Really? Did he really do that?"
"I can't imagine."
"Maybe Officer Dy got possessed."
They started laughing.
"What are you talking about?" Officer Yzerman asked.
"Don't you know that your crush hugged a woman last night?" Detective Ishigami taunted.
"You mean Officers Dy?" Officer Yzerman clears up.
"And who else?" Detective Santelices incited.
"Are you sure?" Officer Yzerman asked again.
"If you don't believe us, just ask Officer Villaraigosa," said a police officer. "There he is!" The both of us looked at the door where a police officer was about to enter. Officer Yzerman walks through him.
"Is it true? Officer Dy hugged someone last night?" She asked.
"Yeah. Even I was really surprised. I never thought of seeing him do that," He answered.
Huh? I thought he was the one who told Officer Dy to do that.
"But why?"
"We were patrolling at their subdivision where the notorious maniac was roaming. I got thirsty so we decided to go to a store to get some drinks. He saw something in the store and he said he'll just check on something. And when I followed him, he was looking at the maniac and a girl was crying on the floor," He narrated.
Oh! Did he see the paper where I write detergent? Is that the reason why came? He knew it was me?
"Woah! You mean Officer Dy knew the location of the maniac because of the thing he saw in the store?" asked a female police officer.
"Maybe? I'm not sure."
"Then why did he hug that girl?" Officer Yzerman asked dismally.
He just shrugged. Until he saw me. Our eyes both widened. I just put my index finger on my lips to beg him to keep silent.
