Katrina sat on her bed. Eric had just called to tell her that his parents were coming over to have dinner at his house.She had no problem with Eric's mom coming over, In Fact she couldn't wait to see her.The problem was his dad. Alvin told her earlier today while they were chatting that Eric's dad was very strict. He's picky about the people around his dear son.What if he doesn't like her?Well, he wouldn't like her. She was the one competing with Molly and she had nothing to offer his son. Katrina concluded she would just stay up in her room through out Eric's dad stay here. She had to prepare a nice dinner very soon. Katrina went to the kitchen and checked all her cooking ingredients to make sure everything was complete.**** Eric came back home earlier today because of the dinner. Katrina had just started cooking when Eric came back."Good evening Sir" Katrina greeted, coming out of the kitchen."Evening Katrina" he replied."Cooking already?" he asked."Yes Sir " she repli
Eric was sitting on the floor when Katrina came in. He was on the second beer.Katrina saw the first can of beer empty and squeezed. He threw it to the wall.She walked towards him and bent down beside him."Eric" she called softly."Leave me," he said."I can't, not even if I wanted to." Katrina said."Don't act like you care," Eric blurted out."I do care... I understand you don't want to get married to Molly, but I don't know the reason why... You guys are okay together. " Katrina said."I don't want to get married to Molly because of you," Eric replied calmly."How? "Kat asked."I'm in love with you Kat, " he said, shocking her."What? " Katrina asked, surprised."That's the truth. But my dad insists on me marrying Molly. Like, why can't I make a decision myself " he said and took up his beer to drink again."Don't drink," Katrina said, collecting the can of beer from him."Kattt, " Eric muttered.Katrina leaned into him stroking his hair.**** Eric couldn't resist reaching out
Katrina kept on thinking about what happened between her and Eric last night while she prepared breakfast. Last night was amazing!She should be regretting that she let him sleep with her but she felt no regrets at all.In Fact, she felt happy and fulfilled.Funny right?She was done preparing breakfast. She went to set the table and served the meal.Eric came down fully dressed, looking gorgeous as ever. Katrina felt shy all over again when she saw him.Their eyes met and he gave her a sweet smile. She couldn't smile back as she was too shy, so she looked away blushing.Katrina heard him chuckle as he sat down on the dining chair. She went out to call Tom and Alex in. She also served Alvin his share too.--------Eric was done eating. Alex and Tom were outside waiting for him.Katrina came out of the kitchen to pack the plates but Eric stopped her and pulled her into a hug.Katrina hugged him back, inhaling the sweet scent of his perfume.They stayed that way for a while before he re
Katrina started to run but Eric held her back."Didn't you hear what Tom just said?" Katrina asked, surprised."And so? " Eric replied. Katrina looked at him with confusion in her eyes."I need to go. Molly can't see me here with you. I don't want any more troubles, " she said."Are you afraid of Molly? " Eric asked. Katrina smirked."No, I'm not. But you know how Molly is.. She's going to be your wife soon, " Katrina replied."I don't care" Eric said."So what are you going to tell her if she sees us together? " Katrina asked."The truth" he replied briefly. Katrina raised her eyebrows and gave him a strange look."Which is?? What is the truth? " She asked."That I'm in love with you. That you are the woman I love. That it's you I love and not her" Eric replied nonchalantly.This confession shocked Katrina. Eric said it last night but Katrina thought it was under the influence of the beer he took."You are joking, ain't you? " She asked."No, I'm not. I wanted to tell you this be
Molly parked her car on the road side. She couldn't believe Eric just said told her he's in love with Katrina.He's in love with Katrina??"Darn it!!!" She screamed. Molly sat in her car and cried her eyes out.She was feeling so empty right now. She didn't feel like going home, she needed someone to talk to right now.Then she remembered Morganna, her closest friend and dialed Morganna's number.Morganna answered the call."Hey Ganna " Molly said."Molly, how are you? " Morganna asked."I'm not fine. Are you home? " Molly asked."Yes, why are you not fine? " Ganna asked with concern."I'm coming to your house now. I would tell you when I get there " Molly replied."Okay babe. I'm expecting you " Morganna said.Molly ended the call, she started her car and drove off, the tears kept falling.—Hours later, Molly got to Morganna's house. Morganna's gateman opened the gate and Molly drove in.She parked her car well and came down from the car. Molly walked straight to the main door and
"Boss, your mom is here" Alex said to Eric."Let her in," Eric replied.Katrina got up to welcome Eric's mom as she came in."Good afternoon Ma'am" Katrina said and hugged Eric's mom."Afternoon darling and happy Sunday to you" Mrs Salmadiego said."Same here Ma, though I didn't go to church " Katrina said smiling."I didn't go,"Mrs Salmadiego replied."Momma" Eric called as he stood up to hug his mom."Sweetheart, how are you doing? " his mom asked, pecking his cheek."I'm doing great, you?? " Eric asked."I'm doing good, " Mrs Salmadiego replied."What's going on here? I can see the atmosphere is looking bright and joyous. And is that popcorn I see over there? " Mrs Salmadiego asked."Mom... You always notice everything, " Eric said, putting his arm around her neck. He led her to a chair and she sat down."Sure. I wanted to be a detective, you know, " his mom said laughing."Well, Kat and I were watching a movie before you came in. We ate popcorn to make it more fun, "Eric explained
"Ma'am, she's out of the house. I just saw her walk out of the gate, " Molly's spy said.She smiled on hearing this."What should we do next? " her spy asked."I think she's going to the market. Kidnap her immediately before she stops a taxi " Molly ordered."Where should we take her? " her spy asked."I would text you the address immediately. Are your boys ready? Is the car ready?" Molly asked."We're all ready," he replied."Good. I want you to do a clean job" She commanded."Okay Ma" he replied.Molly ended the call and sent the address to him.**** Katrina was on her way to the market. Eric already left for work with Tom and Alex.She walked some distance away from the house. Then she stopped, she was waiting for a taxi.Suddenly, she saw a black car with tinted glasses driving recklessly towards her. The car stopped in front of her. Two rough looking guys came down from the car.Instantly, Katrina knew what was about to happen. She started to run but she wasn't fast enough. The
Eric was surprised when Alvin told him he couldn't get hold ofKatrina. "What? " Eric asked."I tried calling her but her phone was switched off " Alvin said and his heart skipped a beat."What!! " Eric screamed.It's unusual for Katrina to switch off her phone.Where could she be??She doesn't have any friends, none that Eric knows of so the possibility of her being with her friend is canceled.Eric brought out his phone from his pocket and dialed her number. It was switched off."Did she tell you the market she was going to? " Eric asked Alvin."Yes, she told me she's going to Big Joe's supermarket, " Alvin replied."I think I have the number of the sales girl and the manager. Let me call the sales girl, " Eric said.He dialed the number of the sales girl and she answered the call instantly."Hello, good evening. This is Big Joe's supermarket." The sales girl said on answering the call."Good evening." Eric greeted."How can I help you?" She asked."Did anyone by the name Katrina A
