The storm in my life
Chapter 13
Katherine’s POV
When he opened the door, his eyes widened.
“Hello”, I said and he observed me for a while.
“Come in”, he said, stepping out for me to walk in.
I walked in and observed the room. It looked really fancy
and I’m sure it was really expensive.
I saw the wine and pair of glasses that he had placed on the
bed.
“Sit down”, he said and I sat on the bed.
“You were the one who came with my son for the dinner,
right?”
“Yeah”, I said feeling nervous.
“So you’re an escort and not his girlfriend?” he asked.
“Yeah”, I said, looking away.
I thought that he was going to tell me to go or something,
but he rather sat by me and put his arms on my shoulders.
“You’re very beautiful”, he said smiling and cupping my
cheek.
I wanted to scream and tell him to stay away from me, but
doing that will cost me my job.
“I know I look old, but I’m going to make you feel really
good”, he said grinning.
“Let’s make a toast to a wonderful night”, he said and he opened
the wine and poured some in the glass for me.
He took a sip of his drink and I just sat there staring at
mine.
“Are you going to drink that?” he asked.
“I will”, I said and I took a sip.
He dropped his glass and placed his hands on my thighs.
“Let’s get down to it”, he said getting up and taking off
his clothes.
I found myself taking off mine too.
“Wow, you look more beautiful with your clothes off”, he
said grinning.
He walked up to me and pushed me on the bed.
I wanted to scream and beg him not to touch me, but I was
just stiff.
He climbed me and was about to kiss me, but I pushed him
off.
“Are you crazy”? He asked me.
I started tearing up.
“What’s this?” he said getting angry.
“Please don’t do this”, I said to him.
“Why are you acting this way?! You can sleep with my son and
not me?”
“I didn.t……….” before I could end my statement, he pushed
back to the bed and I tried fighting him off.
“Get off me”! I screamed and I pushed him off.
I quickly took my dress and rushed out of the room.
I went into the elevator and quickly put on my dress. Luckily
for me, there was no one in it.
When I got to the ground floor, I wiped off my tears and quickly
walked out and took a cab back to the boutique.
I changed back to my normal outfits and left the other one
there and I went back to the hospital.
When I got there, I spoke to the nurse and she took me to my
father’s room.
When I saw my dad’s face, I wanted to break down and cry,
but I had to stay strong in front of him.
“Katherine”, he said smiling.
“Dad. How are you?” I asked him.
“I’m fine, as you can see. This hospital is really lovely,
the medical attention and care is really great”, he said smiling.
“I’m glad you’re fine”, I said hugging him.
“How was work?” he asked me.
The question took me aback and I wanted to cry and tell him
what went on, but I couldn’t tell him and it really hurts.
I actually couldn’t talk to anyone; they wouldn’t understand
and might end up judging me.
“It was great”, I said to him.
“We thank God, when I return home; I would love to visit
sometime”.
“Okay”, I said smiling.
The nurse came in and gave him some medications.
“How are you feeling Mr Kerry?” she asked.
“Very well”, he said to her.
“Okay, that’s great”, she said smiling and she turned to
face me.
“Miss Kerry, the doctor wants to see you in his office”, she
said to me.
“Right now?”
“Yes please”.
“Okay”.
“Please come with me”, she said, walking out.
“I’ll be right back”, I said to my dad and I left.
I followed the nurse to the doctor’s office and took a seat.
“Hello Miss Kerry”, he said to me.
“Hello doc”, I said smiling.
“You’re Mr Kerry’s daughter right?”
“Yeah, how’s my dad fairing?”
“He’s responding quickly to the medications. I spoke to your
mum concerning his health and she told me that you were in charge of paying his
bills. Is that right?”
“Yes please, is there anything wrong?”
“No. we just need you to make some payments in order to
proceed with the rest of the treatment”.
“Okay, how much do I need to pay?”
“Please follow the nurse and she’ll take you to the cashier,
the bill will be given to you over there”.
“Okay”, I said getting up, and I followed the nurse to the
cashier.
We got to a different office and I got in and took my seat.
“Hello”, the clerk said to me in a croaky voice.
“Hi, I’m here for the bill concerning Mr Kerry’s treatment”.
“Okay, please wait for a minute”, he said looking on his
laptop screen.
He printed a paper out and gave it to me. I looked at it and
the money that was left was really huge. I really felt down, how am I going to
pay this? I’m not sure I’ll be accepted back at work after the stunt I pulled. I was surprised that
I had not received a call yet.
“Okay thanks”, I said, getting up and walking out of the
office.
I went to the reception and sat there for a while, thinking
of what to do.
Should I go back to the man’s room and ask him for forgiveness
and let him sleep with me?
I was really confused. Didn’t know what to do.
As I was sitting there thinking, I received a call from
Amber.
I couldn’t bring myself to pick up. I was really scared of
what was coming.
I didn’t pick up; I let it go straight to voicemail.
I sat there with shaky fingers; I’ve never felt this way
before. She called again and I didn’t
pick and then I received a voicemail.
“You’re requested in the executive manager’s office tomorrow
morning”, she said.
