Alessia was now fuming. "You know what? Forget it!" She yelled. "I don't want to know. Especially not from you. I have my own sources."

"Dude, I am like your only source inside the Sicilian Mafia. Sit down." He was so confident with his words that it infuriated Alessia even more. How could someone be so freaking arrogant?

"BYE!" She yelled.

"Byee..." He sang from the other side as she hung up the phone. She tossed it on the coffee table and laid down on the couch, crossing her arms across her chest as she huffed. She decided she would call one of her brothers to see what was going on once she calmed down.

From across the room, Michelia let out an exasperated sigh. She had hoped that the two of them would talk properly and then become friends again but no... They had to continue with their cat and mouse fight like the immature toddlers they were.

River stared at the duffel bag she had taken down from the storage cupboards in the walk-in closet. It was the same one she had been using for an year now. The one she carried her spare clothes and essentials in just in case she had to stay at the hospital longer than her allotted shift.

"I missed you." She smiled looking at the blue bag. She really had missed being the doctor she was. She had had her vacation and she was glad that she did but her job was a part of who she was and going back was giving her such a good feeling. But then, it was also making her nervous. She was going to walk back in after the dramatic exit she made. She was nervous how people would perceive her now that she was the doctor who disappeared all of a sudden and got back, supposedly married. It was going to raise questions.

Hey, at least Jacqueline was going to be there right? That was a plus point.

She let out another sigh before turning to the closet to find some comfortable clothes to keep in the bag, along with some essentials that she might need. It took her about fifteen minute to do it.

Looking at her phone, she realized that the time was only half past eleven in the morning. She had more than six hours before she could start her shift and she had a feeling that it was going to be the slowest six hours of her life.

Her phone lit up again, showing Mateo's face.

She rolled her eyes. She took her phone, her finger hovering over the decline button but then she decided to accept the call.

"What?" She barked as she placed her phone against her ear.

Mateo was taken by surprise. Though he was glad that she had finally picked up her phone, he had not expected her to and now he had no idea what he was supposed to say to her.

"Did you call to keep mum?" She asked, her annoyance and anger making its way back.

"I am sorry!" He quickly exclaimed, afraid that his baby mama would hang up the phone if he showed any more tardiness.

"Apology not accepted." River said, a flat look on her face. She was not going to forgive too easily for being an asshole. He knew that he could not treat her the way he did but he still did it anyway and now the doctor was going to treat him the way he must be treated for the bullshit he had spewed at her.

"River, listen to me..." Mateo started but was cut off again.

"I am listening." She said without skipping a beat.

"River-"

"You know I have a lot of work today. I am sure Victor and Director Simmons must have informed you already of me going back to work so I have to prep for it, and get stuff ready for the kids also."

"I know I know." Mateo knew that a simple apology over the phone was not enough this time to pacify his stubborn surgeon. She was really really really offended by what he had said. He knew and she knew that it was merely a slip of tongue but Dr. River Johnson was not the kind of woman who let someone treat her any less than she deserved to be treated.

"Talk to you later." She said.

And a bulb lit up in Mateo's head. He smiled to himself as he said, "See you later."

River hung up the phone and tossed him back on the bed, even more annoyed at Mateo for not trying better and giving up as soon as she said she didn't want to hear it. She didn't really mean it. She wanted him to apologize to her even more so that she could give him a piece of her mind and treat him like shit before forgiving him.

Little did she know that he was going to try harder and he meant it literally when he said, "See you later."
