"Kate? Are you there?" He asked again and she quickly wiped off her tears, sniffling loudly.

After Kate was sure that she didn't look like she had been crying her eyes out, She opened the door and with a straight face was about to walk past him.

"Kate.." he called softly, holding on to her hands and stopping her.

Unable to take it anymore, Kate turned her face away, embarrassed that Seth had to find her in a state like this.

"It's okay.." He whispered and pulled her into a hug, his hands holding her around her waist while she held him tightly.

For some reason, she felt safe in his arms, she felt comforted, it was almost as if all her problems would get cancelled out once she was with him.. that kind of feeling.

After sobbing for some time into his shirt, she sniffed loudly and pulled away from the hug, grateful that he comforted her without a word.

"Thank you," She managed to utter and walked away without looking back or even waiting for a response from him.

    Startled, Kate lifted her head up to see Grace staring at both of them with suspicious looking eyes and she almost burst into laughter.It was clear that Grace was jealous, even when she tried so hard to hide what she was feeling.She walked in, a forced smile creeping on her face."What were you guys discussing? The laughter was so loud that I couldn't even sleep for a while."Even as her tone was soft and friendly, it was still so obvious that she was jealous."Oh that .. it was nothing," Liam said, laughing nervously.It was clear that he also saw how annoyed and jealous Grace was.But Kate couldn't miss such an opportunity to mess with Grace and she immediately spoke up."Liam's right. It's just a little thing we did when we were young. Kids.. you know. We were just curious about a lot of things and did some things," She laughed."Things like what?" Jealous eyes darted from her to Liam."Well, like kissing and other stuff. We kissed when we were younger and I was telling him about

    Chapter 19Kate stopped herself from yelling at her mother and screaming that can't she be in control of her own life.Shs should have known that something like this was coming up as her mother mentioned Liam.Who does her mother think she is? Does she think that her daughter is a commodity that she can be advertising from one friend to the other."Mom, I can't. I can't meet with anyone.""Why not? You also need to be sure of your future. Just because Liam is now paying you attention doesn't mean that you shouldn't meet up with other guys. I'm your mother and I really want to see you successful.""I know, mom, I know. But I really want to focus on my studies, at least for now.""What studies? The ones you attend or the ones you don't attend? What about your dance practices? Do you even do that anymore? I'm trying to think of the right place for you but you keep getting on my nerves."Kate felt so frustrated and grabbed the corner of her sheets to stop herself from getting mad at her m

    Chapter 20As the taxi slowed down to the address Kate gave him, she felt the usual thrill mixed with slight fear come over her. This was how she usually feels whenever she visits Seth.The taxi stopped and the driver stared at her from the rear view mirror, a look of concern written all over his face."Huh.. is this the right place? If it's not, I can take you back so you can get the right address."Kate glanced up at him and her face drew into a small smile that felt forced as she stared at him."It's the right address." She managed to utter.The driver stared at her for some time before nodding his head silently and clearing his throat."Well, I'll be here for about thirty seconds so if you change your mind, you can still see me."She laughed and paid him before getting out of the car.Her hand was the only clue that she was nervous as she tried so hard to hide what she was feeling.Despite her disguise and everything, even the driver could tell that she wasn't meant to be in a pla

    Chapter 21The alarm sound woke Kate up and she stared blankly at the wall for some minutes, trying to clear her head and fight the sleep away.Finally, she stood up and strode grudgingly towards the bathroom, her eyes caught sight of the calendar beside the bathroom door and suddenly her mood was instantly changed.It was the final day of her period which means that she gets to do whatever she wants to do and even have fun as much as she wants to without getting scared that she might stain or not.She hurried into the bathroom and took a quick shower, her mind already going to the dance studio and how much fun she was going to have, especially if she sees Seth.Her shower took less than fifteen minutes and she walked out of the bathroom, humming to the theme music of the movie she saw the night before.As she applied her face cream on her face, she thought about how she managed to come back home from Seth's place the other day.A part of her felt disappointed that it wasn't today tha

She thought back to when he smiled at her in his bedroom.His eye wrinkles deepened when he smiles, his soft gaze in his eyes as he stares at her and the way he talks to her, everything just made her feel butterflies in her stomach and she let out a soft sigh wishing he was here with her in the practice room.His shirt was Still with her and she has no plans of giving it back to him because she knows she loves it.The memory of how he gave her the shirt came into her head and she smiled again.

    Chapter 23Her leg spread across his chest as she rolled around on the bed, slowly crawling up and down his feet, teasing him."Take your leg off," Lucas said slowly as she touched his hand with a flirty smile."What? It's not bad, right? I'm trying to ease your mind," Grace grumbled silently."Just get off," he said as he shifted away from her on the bed.Grace stood up and frowned at him, standing stark naked as she walked past him."You are cool," she said as she walked to the other side of the bed, grabbing her shirt."What?" Lucas asked, staring at her as if he didn't hear what she had just said."I said you're cool, surprisingly. How can you act so okay with not being the only child? I wouldn't be able to handle it. Someone like Kate being my sister?"He laughed and shook his head."Nahh, I don't mind. She is just someone I see as my kid sister. How is she by the way? Is she living well?"Grace frowned at him with her hands on her hip and sat on the bed next to him."What's this

    Kate pulled out of the hug and smiled at Grace. It was obvious that they both felt the urge to throw up out of disgust but they still forced a smile on their faces.“Are you going to come for our usual outing? You know I really want to be with you,” Grace said and Kate almost laughed.She wasn't interested in her being there, if anything she was sure that grace just wanted to be with Liam.“Yeah sure. I'll come with you.”Grace smiled and turned to walk into her room, her mind still reeling from the conversation she overheard Kate talking about with someone on the line.Shs couldn't help but wonder if actually Lucas was right about Kate having a boyfriend and a part of her wanted to know who it was , if it was Liam.She quickly bathed and was dressingup just as soon as a knock sounded on her door.“Are you done?” Kate called and she immediately opened the door.“Yeah. Come in, I just have to powder up my face and we're good to go.”She walked towards her mirror and started patting her

She felt lost.The gathering last night was surprisingly fun, especially with Lucas around and that was the most surprising thing. He didn't make her feel uncomfortable, he tried his best to interact with her without being annoying as usual and that confused her.She couldn't help but wonder maybe he was actually pretending to hate her all this while or maybe he just felt so free last night and was in a good mood.But all these excuses didn't change the fact that Lucas was different around her yesterday and the feeling that he might not hate her after all. She thought back to the time when he saved her from the anger of her mother and father when he told them that he saw her fall off the staircase, Even though he didn't and the mark on her neck was obviously a love bite.

    Chapter 28 Kate felt oddly calm even after catching her best friend sleeping with someone she liked. It didn't bother her that much because she already knew about it and for some reason, she doesn't care about Liam again as she thought she did in the past.As the car stopped in front of the dorm, she walked in, feeling relieved that she doesn't have to hide the fact that she knows about both of them dating behind her back.She walked into the dorm and took off her clothes before going into the bathroom and having a quick bath. Today was a leisure day for her as there were no lectures and the practice room was temporarily locked so she decided to sit in and watch a movie. She reached into her fridge and grabbed a cup of ice cream and some cake before sitting on her bed and placing her laptop on her lap.The movie was a melodramatic one and halfway through it, she was already sobbing and eating her junk.Staring down at herself, she let out a soft chuckle. Her Mom would have her neck

    Chapter 27"Kate!" The harsh voice of her mother sounded in her ears and she winced at the sound."Yes?""Why haven't you been picking up your call? What's going on? I hope you're not going about looking like a tramp and dressing like one?"Grace! That sneaky ass girl! She must have told her mother that she was dressing in cheap clothes and going out.She rolled her eyes, annoyed at the fact that she can't live her life without her mother and her friend interfering."Mom, I don't go around dressing like that besides I'm not a child. Anyhow I want to dress , it's up to me. You shouldn't be bothered by that."Her mother sounded like she sucked in a breath in shock at her statement and didn't say anything for some seconds before she finally spoke."Whatever, Just don't go around embarrassing me."Kate felt irritated at that word "embarrass" because that was all her mother says to her. Don't embarrass me, don't do this, don't do that.She has never had a single moment of freedom to hersel

    Chapter 26The ride back from Seth's place was bliss for Kate. She could feel like she was floating in the air and that all her worries were lighter. There was just something about him that made all her problems ease up.He has a way of making her feel much better especially after her mother and the so-called friends that she has , hurts her. There was just something about him, he doesn't have to even do anything and she's already feeling better.She smiled as she remembered the way he was acting around her and the fact that the girls called him a grim guy, someone who doesn't smile when he smiles all the time with her.But there was something that bothered her. When she was at his place, she saw a new laptop on the floor and asked him where he got it. The laptop looked expensive and can afford to get him out of that slum he was living in so she was surprised that he'll get a laptop that expensive when he can barely afford to pay rent for a clean apartment.But his response made it ev
