:He Passed!

Aixela's Pov:

"Officer Dy! You're here already! Is your wound healed already?" Officer Yzerman approached him as she saw us going inside.

"I'm fine already. Thank you for all of your concerns," He said.

"Your recovery is fast. Ms. Supresencia seems to have taken good care of you," Detective Santelices teased.

I shook my head and wagged my hands. [Officer Yzerman took better care of him.] I wrote.

"Wow, Officer Dy! Two women took care of you. It looks like you don't have hot blood with women anymore," Detective Ishigami quipped.

It seems like I just made everything worse. I hate you, Xela!

Fortunately, Officer Dy didn't seem to be upset and just went to work. Officer Yzerman approached me and asked about Officer Dy.

"How is he? Is he really well?".

I gave her a thumbs up. [He ate all the fruit you brought.] I showed her my note.

"Good to hear," She smiled. "Ok. I'll follow him. Maybe his wound hurts again. I'll take care of him first."

I gave her a hard nod and signed to cheer her. I just kept waiting. I was afraid of making mistakes again, so I barely moved. My backside is already sore from sitting for so long.

Eventually, my phone vibrated. Mama texted me that she had already sent me the money. I smiled but first thought about how to get the money.

"What's up, Xela? How are you?" Detective Givenchy asked. Right! Good timing Detective Givenchy!

I typed my note. [Detective Givenchy, are you busy?]

"Not really. Why?"

[Is there a bank near here? Can you come with me?] I showed him my note.

"Sure. Wait, give me a sec," He said.

I looked for Officer Dy to say goodbye, but he didn't seem to be there. So Detective Givenchy and I went to the bank already. We hurried there and returned to the precinct immediately. I also don't want to bother him too much. When we arrived, I immediately messaged Mama to thank her and tell her that I already received it.

I kept the money and told Detective Givenchy that we should just keep it a secret. I want to surprise Officer Dy when the results of his promotion test come out. A few weeks have also passed, but we still don't know the results.

I am now sitting on the couch. Fortunately, it is back here. I can sleep better. Officer Dy, on the other hand, could not stop walking.

"Why do you keep walking? I'm the one who's getting dizzy because of you", I complained.

"The other officers already received the result. But why is nothing still being sent to me?" He asked.

"Ah ... Calm down first," I just said.

"If I do not pass, I should receive a notice of test results confirming that I'm unsuccessful on the written test. But I don't receive any of the two. What if I didn't submit my test properly? Or something error occurred?"

"Don't overthink. You're just making yourself more nervous! I'm getting even more nervous too!"

Suddenly, his phone vibrated. We looked at each other and at the same time looking at his phone. He even took it slowly. I close my eyes and pray.

I barely opened one of my eyes where I could see him covering his phone and peeking at the result. I smiled at what he was doing. He is even more childish than me.

"Woah!" He exclaimed.

"Why?" I asked. "Did you pass?"

He was just smiling and not moving.

"Let me see," I took his phone and looked at it.

"I can't see any name. Did you pass or not?" I asked nervously.

"My... my pin number is there... I... passed! I passed!!" He said while smiling, yet his eyes are starting to be filled with tears.

"You passed!" I exclaimed and hugged him while jumping. "You did it! You pass! I'm very happy for you!"

He was also jumping while hugging me until we realized it. He immediately removed his hands from me and even pushed me away.

"Sorry," He uttered.

"You passed the test. Does it mean you are now a detective?" I asked.

"Not yet, I still have to take an interview," He answered.

"I know you can do it. You're just one step away from your dreams. I'm sure your father is very proud and cheering for you."

"Yes," He said as he wiped his tears.

"Come! I'll treat you in any restaurant you want," I said.

"What?"

"It is my gift for you," I offered.

"I'm not even a detective yet."

"So? It's my gift to you for passing the test and saving my life. It's still even not enough, but please accept it."

"But where did you get the money?"

"Mama sent it to me. They also want me to treat you, so please accept it, okay?" I begged. "I'm going to change now, okay? I'll wait for you."

I went inside the bathroom and wore my favorite dress. I also put light make-up on. This might be the first and last, so I should look great. When I came out of the bathroom, Officer Dy was not there. I just sat on the couch and frowned. He didn't agree even just for once.

"Why did you dress up too fancy? I really looked like your guard."

I was surprised when his door opened, and I saw him wearing a plain white shirt and pants.

"Is it good? Or do I have to change?" He asked.

"Huh?" I uttered. "Ah ... You look perfectly fine. You don't have to change as long as you're comfortable with what you are wearing."

"So, shall we go now?"

A huge smile carved my lips then I nodded.

"Oh wait, before I forget," He stopped. "Don't forget our rule. Don't. Utter. Any. Sound. Okay?"

"Yes, master," I saluted.

We both laughed and continued walking.
