The storm in my life
Chapter 21
Katherine’s POV
On seeing her text, I got angry and I didn’t type my
testimony.
What does she mean by that? I really couldn’t understand, so
I texted a friend of mine.
“Did you see what Caroline sent to the group?” I asked.
“What?” she asked.
“The prayer about someone coming between her and Noah”, I said.
“Yeah, I did”.
“And it sounds right in your ears?” I asked.
“Well, God said we should ask him for anything and she’s
doing just that”.
“Yeah, but it sounds so wrong”.
“Hmm, if she feels that the guy is right for her allow her
to pray”.
“Do you know that she’s talking about me”, I said to her.
“Really? How do you know that?”
“I work at her workplace now and Noah and I are uhmm kind of
like friends”.
“You work at Chappman Oil Company?” she asked surprised.
“Yeah, I changed my work place. It’s a long story”.
“So what do you do there?”
“Assistant manager”.
“Really?”
“Yeah”.
“And what has that got to do with Caroline’s prayer topic?”
“She thinks Noah and I have something and that I’m the one hindering
whatever she’s talking about”.
“Mmm, an d do you and Noah have anything doing?” she asked.
“No, we’re just friends, nothing more”.
“So explain that to her”.
“There’s nothing to explain to her. She and Noah have
nothing going on”, Katherine texted, getting angry.
“How do you know that?”
“Because he told me”.
“Hmm, but if she feels he’s the one and you don’t have anything
going on with him, then just leave it. Who knows, they might end up together”.
God forbid, I said in my head, getting angry.
Why am I even getting angry? It’s not like I care or
anything. She and Noah can be whatever they want.
“You know you’re lying”, my sub consciousness said to me.
“Okay”, I texted and I put my phone away.
I laid on my bed thinking of all the good things that has
happened to me and Noah found his way into my thoughts.
Oh God what’s happening to me?
I quickly tuned my mind to something else, but Noah just
didn’t want to get out of my thoughts. What made things worse was when he
called me.
I just stared at the caller ID till my phone stopped
ringing.
I couldn’t bring myself to pick up. I just didn’t know what
was wrong with me.
I patiently laid there waiting for his next call but he sent
a text.
‘I miss you’, he said.
On seeing that I squeaked and my heart was really beating
faster than the normal rate.
I didn’t know what to type; I just rolled on my bed trying
to calm myself down.
What if it’s something he says to all his female friends, I might
just be overreacting?
I finally calmed myself down and replied.
‘Aww, are you home now?’ I asked.
I was about to get off my bed and go to the dinning but then
my phone beeped, I looked at it and he had replied.
“Yeah, I am”.
“Okay, I’m going to eat, will talk to you later”, I sent to
him.
“Hmm, and I’m not invited?”
“You are invited”, I sent to him, smiling.
“Thank you”, he said.
I put my phone away and went down to eat.
**************
I was in my room dressing up when I heard the bell ring and I
wondered who it was.
“Katherine, there’s someone here to see you”, my mum yelled.
This early morning? Could it be my driver?
I quickly finished up and went to the door and I was really
surprised when I saw Noah standing there with a grin plastered on his face.
“Noah?”
“Good morning Katherine”, he said, smiling.
“Morning”, I said.
“Are you ready?”
“Ready??”
“Yeah, for work”.
“I thought you were getting me a driver”, I said confused.
“Yeah, but I will be driving you for now till we get you a
driver”.
“Mmm, okay, I’ll be right back”, I said and I walked in and
saw my mum standing there, smiling.
“Who’s that?” she asked me, smiling and wiggling her brows.
“Oh mum. He’s just my boss”, I said laughing.
“Mmm, okay”, she said laughing and I left.
I applied slight make up, combed my hair, took my hand bag
and went down the stairs.
“Mum, I’m leaving”, I said, kissing her on the cheek.
“Don’t forget to pick up your dad from the hospital”, my mum
said.
“Of course I won’t forget”, I said and I left.
I gave Noah my keys. We got in and he drove off.
When we got to the building, Noah held my hands and we walked.
As usual, people were staring at us.
We got to the elevator and when we got to our floor, I thought
Noah was going to his office, but he walked me to my office.
“I’ll see you later, if there’s anything, let me know”, he
said and he hugged me.
I took my seat and continued reviewing the secretary
application letters.
After a while, I went to Mr Hayford’s office. We spoke for a
while and discussed necessary stuff and then I went back to my office.
When I got there, I saw Caroline sitting on my chair.
Is this girl serious?
