The storm in my life 10

The storm in my life


Chapter 10


Katherine’s POV

“Muuuu..mmmm”, I said stuttering.

“I just stepped out to get something to eat, I’ll be there soon”.

“Okay, please hurry up okay. If he needs anything let me know”.

“Yes mummy”, I said and quickly got up.

I’m sorry but I need to go now, I said panting and rushing to the door.

“Katherine?” Noah yelled.

“What?” I snapped.

“Are you going to step out like that?” he asked me.

I looked at down at myself. The coat I wore was opened revealing my lingerie. I can’t go out like this.

“I can give you sweatpants and a t-shirt”, he said.

“Okay, thanks”, I said, walking back to the bed side.

He got off the bed, and went into an inner room, which I suspected was his closet. He came out and gave me the sweatpants, a t-shirt and sneakers. You can change in my closet, he said pointing towards the inner room.

“Thanks”, I said walking into his closet.

I quickly changed and stepped out with my coat on my left shoulder.

“I’m really sorry Noah, but I have to go now”, I said to him and walked towards the door.

“I can drop you off”, he said.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take a cab, I said.

“I’ll be stepping out to eat, so I can just drop you off”.

“You don’t even know where I’m going to”, I said to him.

“You’re not dumb are you?” he said and I squinted my eyes at him, wondering what that statement was for.

“I mean, you can speak, so you’ll definitely tell me where you’re going to”, he said, smiling.

“Uhh…”

“Let’s go”, he said taking his car keys, wallet and his phone.

We quickly stepped out of his house and got on the elevator. We went to his car and got in.

“So where are you going to?” he asked me.

“Cross general hospital”, I said hoping that he won’t ask me further questions.

“Okay”, he said starting his car.

The ride was silent till he spoke up.

“So, is everything alright?” he asked.

“Yeah”, I said, bluntly.

“Mmmm, so what are you going to the hospital for?”

“Nothing”, I said.

“Do we have to go back and forth before you say something?”

“Noah, what do you want from me other than sleeping with you?” I asked getting irritated.

“Ouch. Never mind”, he said.

That was totally rude of me. I wanted to quickly apologise, but something just prevented my mouth from moving.

The whole ride was silent till we arrived at the hospital.

“Thank you so much Noah, and I’m really sorry for what I said”.

“It’s fine”, he said, bluntly.

I stepped out of the car and he quickly drove off.

I’ve really messed things up. How am I going to get that money now? Katherine you’re always good at messing things up.

I walked into the hospital and went down to the reception and I met the same nurse I saw earlier on.

“Hello”, I said to her.

“Hello”, she said forcing a smile.

“I’m here to see my dad. Mr Kerry”, I said, also forcing a smile.

She nodded her head and I walked to the room where my dad was.

I walked in and I saw my dad reading a paper. The tubes were gone and now he was just on a drip.



“Dad”, I said smiling and I hugged him on the bed.

“Katherine!!” he said smiling and hugging me too.

“How are you honey?”

“No dad, how are you?”

“I’m fine”, he said smiling.

“I’ve missed you dad. We were all worried”, I said, tearing up.

“Don’t cry honey. I’m fine as you can see”.

“Yeah daddy, I can see that”.

“Yeah, all thanks to God”.

“Have you spoken to mum?”

“Yeah, the doctor called her for me. I spoke to her and Lucy”.

“Okay, that’s great. Mum was really worried”.

“She shouldn’t be. I’m fine now”, he said smiling.

“She said that you were going to move me to another hospital”, my dad said lifting his left brow.

“Yes dad. The medical care in this place is really bad”.

“I know, but you just started working, don’t spend your money on high medical bills”.

“Dad, you’ve taken care of me ever since I was little. Allow me to take care of you now. Don’t worry about the bills everything will be taken care of, okay” I said to him and he nodded.

We spoke about other things till he slept.

I sat in the chair close to him and drained myself in my thoughts.

How am I supposed to get his money now? What if Noah tells them what happened and they end up sacking. I can’t lose this job now. And I had to get the money to move my dad. I kept on thinking till I drifted off to sleep.

***********

“Mmmm”, I said pushing off the hand that was tapping me.

“Katherine wake up, you need to get to work”, my dad said and quickly got up.

“Hey dad”, I said yawning.

“How did you sleep?” he asked me.

“Great and how did you sleep too?” I asked smiling.

“Like a baby”, he said laughing and I laughed too.

“We thank God”, I said getting up.

“What time is it?” I asked.

“7:23”, he said looking at the clock.

“Okay, what will you eat this morning?” I asked him.

“Katherine, I’m fine. Go and prepare for work, your mum will come and take care of that”.

“Dad..”

“I’m fine Katherine”, he said smiling.

“Okay, I’ll be back to move you”, I said, pecking him on the forehead.

“Have a nice day honey”, he said to me and I left.

**********
 When I got home, my mum was ready to go to the hospital. She looked really excited and it made me happy.

“I’ll see you in the afternoon”, I said to her.

We hugged and then she left.

I went to my room and dived on my bed and I picked my phone and called Amber.

“Hello Amber”.

“Hello Miss Kerry”, she said.

“I’m really sorry about yesterday”, I said to her.

“What about yesterday?” she asked.

“Noah…”

“Yeah. Congratulations miss Kerry. Your rate is really going high. Mr Chappman paid the in the money this morning and he requested for you again”,

“Really?” I asked her, surprised.

“Yeah. You’re really good at what you do”

“Yeah”, I said.

“And you have a new client too”.

“Really?”

“Yeah”.

“So, which client do you want? The old one or the new one?”

“The new one”, I said without thinking.

My Muse 31

*My Muse*♥️☺ *_Chapter 31_* *Oscar's POV* "Mabel why are you here at this time of the night?" I asked her in anger. When she lifted her head she was in tears. "Oscar it's difficult for me. I want you back and I'll do anything it takes to get you back😭😭", she said. "Stop it Mabel. You caused this in the first place". "I know and I'm really sorry. If I could go back in time, I would change what I did. But Oscar we've fought a lot of obstacles for three years, why do you want this to separate us?" "Stop it Mabel. There's no us. I've moved on now, you should move on too", I said. "How did you do it Oscar? I always thought that you'll always love me or you didn't even love me at all" "It doesn't matter if I did or not. Just nice on and stop terrorising my life?" "Me? Now I'm terrorising your life? Oscar after all I've done for you. Even when...

*My Muse*♥️☺ *_Chapter 30_* *Natasha's POV* "Mabel?" I said, surprised. "You look so familiar", she said trying to recall who I was. "Yeah, I remember. You were the doctor who attended to me in the hospital sometime ago". "Yeah", I said, forcing a smile. "Oh come in", she said, stepping aside for me to come in. "You can have a seat", she said to me and I got annoyed. I'm not the visitor or stranger here. I don't know what she's doing here, but I'm not going to get paranoid. I have to put her in her place. I walked to the dinning and placed the basket which contained the food I prepared for Oscar, down. "Uh what are you doing here?" I asked her and she looked at me surprised. "Uhm, I don't think it's your business". "Well, if my boyfriend's ex fianceè shows up at his house, then it's my business", I said and she looked at me confus...

The storm in my life 2

The storm in my life Chapter 2 Katherine’s POV I was really surprised to see the sunrise when I woke up. Didn’t my alarm ring or maybe it did and I didn’t hear it. I looked around and…. “Arrghhhhhhhh!!!!” I screamed. A guy opened the door and ran in. “Where am I?” I asked him. It took me a while to recognise him, but where am I? “You’re in my house cupcake, do not be scared. It’s just a house”, he said grinning. “Why am I in your house?” I asked confused. “You passed out and I’m not that psychic to locate your house”. I rolled my eyes at him. “I was out for how long?” I asked confused. “For almost 24 hours. You really freaked me out, but you were breathing and sleep talking so, I knew you were alive” I felt embarrassed. “Uhm did we do anything?” I asked nervously biting my lower lip. “No”, he said. I let out a breathe that I didn’t know I was holding in. “I’m not that kind of a person and besides you’re a Church girl. I don’t do church gir...
