My Beautiful Doctor Vampire's

CHAPTER 2 - First Meet

The dispute between Antonio and Lionel continues. Rumors in the team are still about Antonio using doping even though they cannot prove it is getting smoother.

But—it did not bother Antonio at all, let alone his carriage which was cold. Cuckoo and indifference to teammates, then the way Antonio spoke that sometimes straightforwardly tended to circus—all it made many who hated him.

That afternoon, after training, he and Bryan went to his steakhouse. To maintain ideal body weight, Bryan ordered only a small serving of spaghetti and salad— in contrast to Antonio who always ordered a large portion of sirloin steak.

“I envy you .. if only I could be like you, eat at will without fear of my weight going up.” Bryan grumbled when he saw Antonio preoccupied with chopping up his steak.

Hearing that he just grinned at his best friend, while brandishing a piece of steak to the front of Bryan's nose. The eyes of the young man who was two months older than Antonio were fiercely glaring. Bryan's reaction made him laugh.

“A little over a month after the team captain selection, Lionel still thinks you're an enemy. Though—we are team-mates.” Bryan serocos while chewing his salad.

Antonio sniffed, he had tried to lower his ego and tried to reconcile with Lionel on the pitch, but the guy was still very annoying. Seeing his best friend's reaction, Bryan made no further comment and refocused on his food.

The two national team core players were enjoying the meal, when the bells of the restaurant door were heard when opened by someone.

Bryan who was in the right position facing the reflex door saw who the visitor who had just entered. He stared as a long-haired woman walked into the restaurant, although her face was covered with scarves until her nose and eyes were wearing sunglasses, the aura of the woman's beauty still emanated.

“You saw the woman who just walked in? Oath to the Greek Goddess, Aphrodite will be jealous of her beauty.” Bryan's eyes continued to follow where the woman was going, while his mouth did not stop talking.

Out of curiosity, Antonio took a glance at the woman who made Bryan not focus on his food. He looked at the young man before him with an astonished look.

“So pale skinned woman like that you say beautiful? After all, which crazy woman wears a thick coat and scarf in summer like this?” Antonio half mocked the taste of Bryan's woman, “Check your eyes later!”

Hearing Antonio's taunts, Bryan only snorted in annoyance, his hands again busy with his spaghetti that was starting to cool. Only, his eyes still remained towards the woman—see that, Antonio just bobbing his head.

The woman took down the scarf and opened her glasses, she also glanced towards Bryan and Antonio. Unintentionally, his eyes met the eyes of the young Portuguese, a line of warm smiles engraved on the lips of this woman—but—not Antonio his name if he returned the smile of the woman, he even melengos coldly.

After the meal was gone, Bryan ventured closer to the woman's table.

“Self?” Bryan regretted the word cliche that just came out of his mouth.

The woman looked up at Bryan then nodded her head thinly, “There can I help?”

Receiving a positive response despite being somewhat stiff, Bryan scratched his head and smiled broadly. He should get this woman's mobile number, at least her name, just this woman's name.

“Include, my name ...”

He did not mention his name, but the woman's phone rang.

“Ya ... I understand .. please don't interfere with my life here!” There was an emphasis on the last sentence he said before ending the phone conversation.

“I have to go, sorry.”

He left Bryan with his arms outstretched. From their table, Antonio stared amusedly and compassionately at his best friend.

Antonio patted Bryan's shoulder in sympathy.

Summer games are coming up soon, Antonio is back at his football club before the World Cup. He is indeed a field star, a handsome face with a firm jaw as well as thick eyebrows framing sharp eyes that have a cold gaze, Antonio's long hair cut style under cut makes him increasingly valued women.

As of today, the stadium was filled with spectators who were mostly women. Antonio did not know if in the audience there was someone who idolized him since the beginning of his debut, the girl was always on the front row of the audience podium, in order to see Antonio's action clearly.

...----------------...

The national team management is looking for a new doctor to replace their old doctor who resigned, let alone the world cup event in Qatar will be held soon. The management choice fell to a woman who graduated as a specialist at a young age, she achieved perfect grades from Imperial College London, Erika Bellatrix.

The first time he set foot in this team's treatment clinic, Erika was like she was entering the gates of hell, not to mention the men tried to attract his attention which they think is beautiful and unique with pale skin— as well as Erika's dress style that tends to be strange.

The woman very often wore a long coat and scarf despite the very hot weather. It was as if he did not feel at all stifled.

They were scrambling for a place to peek at Erika who was tidying up her workplace from the gap of the door and window. To them—the female physician was Aphrodite who descended inside the barracks of the Greek combat troops, one of whom Bryan fell in love with. Especially when he found out if it turns out Erika is a pale-skinned woman that he and Antonio met at a restaurant some time ago.

Bryan decided to enter the clinic on the grounds of offering help. Though it was one of his tricks to get acquainted directly with Erika.

“Destiny turned out to indeed require us to meet, Miss.” Confidently, he greeted Erika.

Erika only responded with a smile, then returned to clean up the quite messy room.

“Do you need help?” Bryan was still trying to catch Erika's attention.

“No, thank you. I can do this myself.” The woman replied without turning her head in Bryan's direction.

Antonio who was looking for Bryan— saw the team members except Lionel was lined up in front of the clinic like waiting in line for cinema tickets. He wondered what was inside the clinic.

“Isn't it rude to turn down someone's help, Miss? Moreover, you are a new person here.” A cynical tone sounded from Antonio's words that suddenly appeared from behind the door.

The male baritone voice was finally able to make Erika turn her head, she looked at Antonio with a question mark. This was the second time their eyes looked at each other. “Sorot this male eye is really cold,” Inner Erika.

"A haughty woman from a rich family, will not be able to last long working with us," thought Antonio no less sarcastic by the way he spoke.

“If you think I'm just a spoiled woman from a rich family, please make me resign from this job!” Suddenly the new doctor pointed at Antonio's face and said in a slightly offended tone. Erika's eyes stared at the two men before her.

Antonio gasped, he did not expect this woman to be able to read his mind, “Maybe just a coincidence.” He's in again.

This woman snorted in annoyance, she kicked Antonio and Bryan out of her room. Then continue his activities tidying up the messy room.
