Katrina got carried away with her dancing that she didn't realize Eric was watching her.
She got startled when she heard his voice and she stopped dancing immediately.
"No don't stop. I love it" he said.
"Uhmm... I'm sorry Sir, I got carried away " she apologized.
"No it's fine. I enjoyed watching you dance " he replied.
"Really? " Kat asked.
"Yeah... Teach me how to dance " he said teasingly.
"What?? " Katrina asked surprised.
"I'm serious " he said laughing at her facial expression.
"I'm not a good teacher " she replied laughing.
"Hmmm"
"Yes Sir " she replied.
"So tell me, what else do you know how to do?? I know for a fact that you can cook, clean, dance, bake. Are there more?? " he asked, folding his arms on his chest.
"Well, I can wash, I love sewing, I can knit. I think that's all" Kat replied.
"Wow, your future husband is really going to be lucky. His wife would know how to do lots of things " he said.
"Thank you. At least my husband won't have to waste his money hiring a dry cleaner to wash his clothes " Katrina replied teasingly.
"Huh??... Are you refering to me? " he asked feigning a frown. "Trying to mock me right now?"
"No Sir, I was just saying " she replied laughing.
"Better. I still prefer dry cleaners to wash my clothes " Eric said.
"Okay Sir " Katrina replied.
"By the way, what are you cooking?? It smells nice " he said.
"Ooh, i'm preparing beef with horseradish " she replied.
"Hmmm.. I'm sure it's going to be tasty. " he said.
"I'm almost through. I'm going to serve you soon, just control your throat a little bit" Katrina said, winking at him and flashing a smile.
"You're not serious" He said laughing. "Okay then, let me leave you to concentrate " he said and left the kitchen.
-------------------------
They sat in the dinning table eating their food in silence. Eric had asked Katrina to eat with him and she agreed."The food is tasty" he said. He commended her openly for the first time.
"Thank you" Katrina replied smiling, she was glad he liked the food.
"Why haven't you invited Alvin over to eat with us?" Kat asked.
"I have done that plenty times, he never accepted. Alvin is the shy type and he's not really the social type " Eric replied.
"I noticed " Kat agreed with him.
"He prefers staying in his room watching Tv or sleeping when he's not at the gate than making friends " Eric added.
"There's a TV in his room? " Kat asked surprised.
"Yeahh.." he replied.
"Ooh... Nice " Katrina said nodding her head. No wonder Alvin was glued to his duty post. Eric really tried, he made Alvin's job very comfortable for him.
"What are you doing after the meal? " he asked.
"Just to wash the plates, then operate my phone " she replied.
"Wanna join me at the pool? " he asked.
"Ooh... Okay " she replied.
They were done eating and she took the plates to kitchen and washed them.
When she was done, she went to pool. He was there already so she joined him. They sat down dipping their legs into the water and enjoying the cool breeze.
"You're being so nice these days" Katrina said. Eric's sudden change of behavior towards has been on her mind. She wanted to know the reason why he was being so nice.
"My mum asked me to act friendly towards you " he replied truthfully. But that wasn't the main reason. He was starting to like her.
"So you're not doing it out of your own will?? " Kat asked surprised.
"Yes " he replied in a proud tone.
"Liar" she said laughing and stuck out her tongue.
"You're the stubborn type. You won't be nice towards me just because your mom asked you to. You did it out of your own will " she said.
"Whatever " he replied. She was right so he didn't want to argue it with her.
"And how's Molly.. She stopped coming here, why?? " Katrina asked.
"She's out of the country. She travelled, would be back soon " he replied.
"I see"
"What about Helen? " She asked.
Katrina wondered why she was asking about them. She was prying into his affairs, she was expecting Eric to ignore her and her question, but surprisingly, he answered her.
"I stopped all my women from coming to my house except Molly because i have no choice. We do meet in a hotel" he replied.
"Wow, does those ladies know you have tons of women after them, that they're not the only one? "Kat asked further.
He gave a short laugh.
"They are aware but they can't resist me. I'm good looking and have a manly stature, plus I'm wealthy " he replied bragging.
"You're manly?? " She asked laughing.
"Of course, can't you see it?? I was manly right from birth, I was bigger than most of my mates back then in kindergarten " he bragged.
"Oh really " Katrina said laughing hard.
"Yes" he replied.
"Why are you laughing??" He asked.
"Well, what do you say about this?? " Katrina said unlocking her phone and showing him a pics of when he was still little.
"Wait... What??... How come you have this pics? " he asked. He was bewildered.
"Your mom sent it to me. Manly my ass!, I couldn't differentiate you from a girl " Katrina replied teasing him.
"Or this, when your mom wore you a gown... You looked exactly like a girl" she said still laughing.
"Delete those pics " he said. He was also laughing too.
"I won't " she replied.
"I think I'm going to upload these on social media and I'll make sure people know it's you" she threatened. "Or what do you think?" She teased again.
"That won't happen. Give me that phone " Eric said and tried to collect the phone from Katrina.
Katrina stood up and started running, Eric followed suit. He chased her around.
After running round for a while, Katrina got tired and stopped running. Eric caught up with her panting hard.
"Delete those pics " he said still panting.
"You know you can't run long, you shouldn't have started what you can't finish" he said to her.
"No, I'm not deleting it" Kat replied laughing.
Eric started to tickle her in her ribs, she was laughing hard now.
"Stop it" she screamed.
"I won't stop till you delete those pictures " he said, he was laughing too.
"Stop it please, I don't like it" I pleaded.
He kept on tickling her as she refused to delete the pictures.
Katrina started to run again but Eric drew her back and turned her to him. Their faces was very close now and they stared at each other. They were no longer laughing.
Then Katrina saw him bend his head to kiss her and her eyes widened in shock.
Katrina saw him bend his head to kiss her. At first she was too surprised to do anything. His lips was almost on hers when she regained her senses. She pushed him away. Eric didn't know when he drew Katrina back. Their faces almost met, she was looking pretty and her lips were too tempting. Without thinking, he bent his head to kiss her and wasn't expecting the push. Okayy, first time a woman was rejecting his kiss! He got pissed and threw his hair back in anger, holding his forehead to calm himself down. "I'm sorry about that. I didn't know what I was doing, if not I wouldn't have tried to kiss someone like you. You're clearly not my type " He said angrily. "Huh? " Katrina asked. She was surprised by his outburst. "I think you over stepped boundaries. You're coming close to me. From now on, I'm going back to the way things were before. You will talk to me formally from now on and a new rule is added." Eric added. "A new rule? " Katrina repeated. "Yes, you won't talk to me unl
Katrina walked to her room in anger.Gosh, she was really angry right now. She felt like punching someone. Eric's so arrogant. She was thinking he's a changed person but she was clearly mistaken. Then she remembered the happy moments and tears dropped out of her eyes. She started sobbing."He's just too cruel!!!" She screamed."Okay Katrina, no more tears for that arrogant pig " she said to herself.But wait, why was she crying?? Katrina stood up and walked over to the dressing mirror. She stared at herself in the mirror still wondering why she cried."Just admit it, you miss him" her inner voice said."No way" Katrina corrected immediately. She dried her face and went downstairs.Eric was no longer there. The used plates was still on the dinning table. She packed the plates to the kitchen and washed them, then she went up to her room to take her bathe after washing the plates. After taking her bathe, she wore her night robe.She wasn't feeling sleepy and she felt like going to t
Katrina was glad when they entered the hall. Eric's mom and another woman walked towards her and Eric."Katrina darling" Eric's mom said hugging her."Good evening Ma'm. Thank you for inviting me over and thank you for... " Katrina started to say but was interrupted."It's nothing, thank you for coming " Mrs Salmadiego said and smiled.The other woman hugged Eric."Nice meeting you " the woman said to Eric."My pleasure " he replied."Come, I reserved a special seat for you "the other woman said. The woman turned to look at Katrina and gave her a brief smile.Eric and Katrina followed his mom and her friend to the seat. Eric caught most ladies attention as they walked. Many ladies were drooling over him. Katrina could see some guys staring at her too.They got to the seat reserved for them. The table was well decorated with different wine and drinks on the table."Come with me son, let me introduce you to my friends " Eric's mom said to Eric."Is it necessary? " Eric asked."Yes darli
Eric kissed Katrina passionately and Katrina kissed him back.Gosh!!, he's a good kisser. Eric couldn't believe Katrina was kissing him back. Her lips tastes so good.He could still taste the wine she drank earlier on in her mouth. He started romancing her while they kept on kissing. He placed his hands on her breasts and she stepped back. Katrina felt his hands on her breasts and came back to her senses. She stepped back immediately interrupting the kiss and was panting for breath."I'm going to my room now " she said and without waiting to hear anything from him, she ran upstairs not minding the high heels she was putting on.When she got to her room, she slammed the door and locked it. Katrina went straight to the mirror to check her lips out.It was swollen, her lipstick was smeared. Unconsciously, she ran her tongue over her lips. She felt like kissing him again."Come on Kat, get a hold of yourself " her inner voice said."Time to undress" she said and started to pull off he
*Back at Sweetgrass * Maureen, Katrina's sister sat in her room drinking and lamenting as usual. There was a knock on the door and she stood up to open it.It was the man that brings the latest newspaper to her. Maureen thanked him and he left.After what Eric did to her, she kept reading the newspaper to know the latest updates about him.She still can't get over Eric!The front page of the paper made me gasp in shock.Maureen stared at the pictures of Eric and Katrina on the paper.Wait! She can't believe this. Maureen cleaned her eyes and stared at it again."Is this really Katrina??my own sister? " She asked herself. Maureen brought the paper closer to her face."It's Katrina. She's the one" she screamed."What's she doing with Eric?? ""His new girl? " She read the headline aloud."Katrina fooled me!!" She screamed.She lied to her, no wonder she never called. Maureen felt betrayed and angry. She threw the bottle of wine away, it shattered into pieces.Just then, she hear
Katrina and Eric felt the cool evening breeze as they walked slowly on the streets.Ladies kept on staring at Eric as they walked by. Maybe they know he was.Katrina didn't tie her hair, she left it loose so the breeze scattered her hair causing it to cover her face.Unconsciously, Eric removed the hair from her face gently. His fingertips brushed her face and Katrina reacted instantly to it.He noticed it."Feeling cold? " he asked."A little "She lied.How was she supposed to explain her reaction??"Here, put your hands in mine, " Eric said, opening his palm.Katrina did as he asked, they held hands and kept on walking slowly.They were both silent for a while, as they kept on enjoying the walk."See that pole over there? " Eric said, pointing to a pole ahead of us."Yess," Katrina replied."Last person to get there gives the other a piggy back ride " he said and Katrina laughed."Get ready to give me a piggyback ride then " she replied."If there's anything I can do best, it's race
Katrina admitting the fact that she likes Eric made her shiver.It shouldn't be so.Well, she doesn't love him yet. That's fine.She changed her clothes, climbed her bed and slept off.*Next morning* The same usual routine took place. Katrina prepared Eric breakfast as usual.Eric came down fully dressed to eat, he was all smiles."Morning Katrina " he greeted happily."Okay, he greeted me first today!" Katrina's inner mind screamed."Good morning Sir " she replied."I told you already, call me Eric " Eric corrected."Okay Eric " she replied smiling."Good. How was your night? " he asked."Fine and yours? " She replied"Splendid, " he said.Eric walked to the dining table and sat down. Katrina dished out his food.He started eating. Alex and Tom came out to eat too. Katrina dished Alvin's food and carried it to his duty post."Thanks Katrina, " Alvin said smiling.She smiled back at him and walked back to the house.****Eric left for work with Tom and Alex while Katrina did other ch
Molly had just come back from England yesterday and decided to pay a surprise visit to Eric.Before she left home, she called one of her spies at Eric's company.Yeah! She has a spy there. Her name was Melody. Molly made Melody her friend so she could always spy on Eric's movements and report to her.Melody told Molly Eric wasn't at work. He took the day off."That means he's at home. Perfect then!!!" Thought Molly. Molly couldn't wait to feel his lips on hers. She's missed him.But then Eric has some explanations to make. She saw his and Katrina's pics on the internet!!She entered her car and drove straight to Eric's house. Molly got there sooner than she expected because the road was free.She bared her car horn. Alvin came out to open the gates and she drove in and parked her car in the car garage, then she came down from the car."Good afternoon Madam Molly" Alvin greeted."Is your boss in? " Molly asked without replying to his greeting."No, he went out," Alvin replied."Wher
"Daniel, Daniella, where are you both?" Eric screamed.Silence!There was no response.Eric was sure the children were up to some mischief."I think I know what will bring them out"Katrina said laughing."And that's?" Eric asked, he was laughing too."Just hold on" Katrina said.Then she used her highest voice to scream."Kids, your chocolate cake is ready" Minutes later, Daniel and Daniella creeped out of wherever they've been hiding."Mummy, where's it?" They chorused happily."Gotcha" Eric screamed."Where have you been hiding?" Katrina asked smiling."Under there" Daniella said"Silly you. Why were you hiding?" Katrina asked."Daniel suggested we hide" Daniella repliedIt's just for fun daddy" Daniel defended."Now, where's our cake?" Daniella asked."No cake. I said that just to make you two come out. Your dad was tired of looking for you both" Katrina explained."You fooled us" the kids said and pouted sadly."Wanna join me in baking your chocolate cake?" Katrina asked."Yes, y
"What!! " Katrina screamed as she sat up. She watched Maureen and Rachel giggle."It's your wedding day," Rachel screamed."You're getting married today " Maureen said happily."Oh my " Katrina said, jumping out of the bed. She totally forgot.She had been anticipating today and now that it's finally here, she forgot about it."Where is Eric? " She asked."Hellooooo... Forgotten so soon? " Maureen asked."Eric, David and the other guys are in Eric's family house. They're are getting ready there. While the ladies are to use here to get ready " Rachel explained."Yeah, that's true" Katrina said, suddenly recalling."I'm nervous " she confessed."Don't be. You're about to get married to the love of your life. You should be happy, not nervous " Rachel said."I'm happy " Katrina replied."I know and we are happy for you too. Congratulations baby girl " Maureen said."Thank you " Katrina replied hugging Maureen. Rachel joined in the hug, the three of them remained that way for a while befor
Katrina woke up the next day feeling so happy and fulfilled.Maureen was still sleeping beside her, so Katrina came down gently from the bed. She didn't want to wake Maureen. She walked to the bathroom, opened the door and went in.She sat on the WC and peed. After she was done peeing, she walked straight to the big mirror and stared at herself.Katrina noticed she was looking so radiant right now. One look at her and you could tell she's feeling fulfilled.Why won't she be?She's about to be Eric's wife. She's soon going to be called Mrs Katrina Salmadiego."Mrs Katrina Salmadiego " Katrina called out loud."Mrs Katrina Salmadiego " she repeated and laughed.The name sounds cute on her lips. She couldn't help blushing."Silly girl. You need to pull yourself together " she said, still laughing. Katrina walked out of the bathroom and saw Maureen sitting on the bed. She's awake now."Heyy sis" Katrina called."Morning Sis " Maureen replied."Who were you talking to? " Maureen asked.
"Will you marry me, Katrina Argos? " Eric asked, going down on his knees, with a ring on his palm.Katrina's eyes widened, it almost popped out of its sockets in shock and surprise.Eric was asking her to marry him.. In the presence of everyone!The reporters and journalists wasted no time in capturing this moment. Camera light flashed and the audience started screaming and wowing."Say yes " they screamed."Wow" Maureen said behind Katrina.Katrina still stared at Eric. She was too overwhelmed to speak."Hellooooo... Young lady, are you going to keep me kneeling, my knee is starting to hurt " Eric said and pouted in a cute childish way.Katrina smiled and nodded her head."Yes, yess, yesss, yessss, yesssss" she screamed happily. Eric slipped the ring into Katrina's third finger and then stood up to embrace her. He carried her and swirled her around laughing happily."Thank you Katrina. You don't know how happy I am right now. You've made me the happiest man on earth right now " Eri
Katrina was still at Eric's family house. It's late already but she didn't mind. She's enjoying her stay here.Eric and his parents with Katrina were all having dinner together. They ate and discussed a lot of things, Eric, his mom, his dad and Katrina.Eric's dad forgave Katrina. He made her promise not to hurt his son again and gave her a warm hug."Hmmm, Eric. You've been laughing so hard tonight. I've missed seeing you laugh this way, but thanks to Katrina here, you're over happy tonight " Eric's Mom said."He really missed her," his Dad chipped in."I know right. He was acting like he wasn't affected whenever we were around him, but deep down I knew he was hurting, " Mrs Salmadiego said."He was trying to be a man for daddy," Mr Paul added in a teasing tone."True, but while alone. He was a cry baby for Katrina, " Mrs Salmadiego said and laughed."Mommm.... Dadddd, stop embarrassing me" Eric whined. He gave a sad baby face that got them all laughing."I'm sorry son " Mr Paul said
Katrina got down from her bed the next morning.She slept with ease last night knowing her sister was on her side this time.She's going to see Eric's mom today. She needs to talk to her, only she can persuade Eric to forgive her. Katrina went into the bathroom to brush her mouth. Maureen was still sleeping on the bed.She came out from the bathroom and walked straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.--------------- Katrina locked the door after coming out of the house. Maureen left already for work. Katrina had told Maureen of her plans and she agreed.Katrina's on her way to see Eric's mom. She walked to a junction where she saw a cab. She stopped the cab, told him where she was going and entered.The journey to California is going to take up to three hours or less, if there was no traffic.-------Finally, Katrina got to Mrs Salmadiego's house. She paid the driver his fee and he left. Katry knocked on the gate, the gatekeeper opened the gate and saw her standing there."
Eric's phone rang as he sat on his seat in the plane. He checked the caller and he saw it was his mom.He stared at his phone for a while and watched it ring, deciding if to answer the call or not.He finally answered the call."Eric, what's the meaning of the stunt you pulled at the airport? ``His Mom asked without waiting for him to greet her."Mom, so you are aware," Eric said."Why not! It's everywhere on social media. Check your damn phone! " his mom screamed."Hey mom, calm down. You don't need to get angry" Eric said."Why won't I get angry? I didn't raise you up to be like this. You embarrassed her in front of everyone! People are already making fun of her" Mrs Salmadiego said angrily."I didn't mean to mom" Eric replied."Oh, shut up. You asked her to do that public apology right? " she asked."Yeah," Eric replied."Then she did it. She swallowed her pride and apologized to you in the presence of everyone. You shouldn't have walked away " she said."Katrina's public embarrass
"What the hell?" Katrina screamed.She wasn't expecting so many people. How was she going to do this?But why are there so many people?She's very sure it's not all that's entering the plane. They're obviously people who came to see Eric."But how did they know Eric was here in Korea and is leaving for California today, and by this time? " Katrina asked herself.It can only mean a thing. Eric pulled this crowd here!He did this to scare her off but she's never giving up. She's truly going to fight for his love this time.Katrina raised her head high and prepared herself."Are you sure you can do this? The people here are much" Rachel whispered. Katrina had totally forgotten that Rachel came with me. She nodded her head in response to Rachel's question."I need to call my bodyguards. I need them now, I wasn't expecting this crowd" Rachel said and Katrina nodded.Rachel quickly dialed a number unknown to Katrina and within minutes, the call got connected. The person answered the call.
Katrina stood waiting while the receptionist talked to Eric on the phone. The receptionist disconnected the call and faced her."I'm sorry, but he said he doesn't want to see you, " she told Katrina."What! You are sure he heard my name right? " Katrina asked."Yes Miss. He repeated your name to confirm if it's really you" the receptionist said."I really need to see him. Please call him again, let me speak with him this time" Katrin pleaded."I'm sorry Miss, but I can't do that, " the receptionist said. Katrina felt sad and dejected. She walked to a seat and sat down burying her head in her hands.After some minutes, the receptionist's phone rang and Katrina looked up to see her answer the call."Sir Eric" she called and Katrina became alert. She stood up quickly and walked over to her."Is she still there? " Katrina heard Eric ask through the phone."Yes Sir. She's right here, " the receptionist replied."Okay, let her in, " Eric said and disconnected."You can go in. His room is r
