That night, they left Duefron. He took Jeslyn on his business trip.

    That night, there was this big concert in Duefron, featuring a famous pianist. Axell was all about these concerts. Hed even snagged tickets for himself and Jessie weeks ago. But then, out of the blue, there was some hospital emergency, so he rang Jessie, telling her to meet him at the hospital so they could go to the concert togetherter.


    Axell ended the call.


    Debra knocked on the door with a grin. Axell, youre going to the concert with your girl? What a coincidence! I dig this pianist too! Axel always felt awkward around her since thest encounter.


    So he grinned back and changed the subject. I have to scrub up and get ready for the surgery.


    Debra beamed. Im your new assistant. Surprise! I just got transferred to your department. I hope we will make a great team.


    Her persistent advances had Axell on edge.


    He was into Jessie, big time.


    But Debra was the hospital directors daughter. He didnt want to step on toes, so he yed dumb, hoping shed back off and head back to her old department.


    Thinking of this, Axell felt relieved.


    Axell and Debra strolled out together. Then out of the blue, Debra piped up, Youre tall and fit, you


    know.


    Axel couldnt take it anymore.


    Just then, Jessie walked in. He was caught off guard. Then it hit him- hed told her to meet him at the hospital. He wanted to say something, but his mouth felt like a desert.


    After a beat, he croaked out, Just give me forty minutes.


    Jessie nced at Debra, and then shot him a smile. Sure thing! Axel ushered her into his office and fixed her a cup of coffee. A nice touch. As he was about to go, Debra leaned against the doorframe, grinning. You treat your girl real good. Remember Last time at dinner with my folks? You were so tense. But now, youre rxed.


    Axell was all flustered.


    He hadnt see thising, especially in front of Jessie. Talk about awkward.


    Jessies eyebrows shot up.


    Debra smiled even more brightly and said in a good attitude, Miss Green, dont misunderstand. It was my birthday. So I tricked Axell intoing to the dinner with me. Theres nothing going on between


    us.


    Jessie wasnt clueless. She got what Debra was getting at.
