I toss and turn all night thinking about gorgeous cry eyes. Alina dropped me off at my apartment a few hours ago, we spend the entire ride in silence with her typing away at her phone like I wasn't even there. A big part of me was disappointed that she ignored me that way and after noticing some of her texts to a guy named Carlos it was all I could do to hide my being dejected and disappointed.

She gave me the impression that she was interested in me but I guess I read the signal wrong. Then again a beautiful successful woman like her probably has men lining up to be with her , much hotter and sexier men that don't prefer being closed off in their apartment reading romantic fiction and suffer anxiety attacks.

I let out a big huff and get up from the bed and walk to the fridge pouring myself a glass of water . I shouldn't be losing sleep over this. It was stupid to think I had a chance in the first place. But I've never felt this way about anyone before. I haven't stopped thinking about her since I saw her at the club that night. That almost kiss which I now wish had actually happened. I keep having dreams of those grey eyes.

I walk back to my bed and lay down. My apartment is a small one open room and a bathroom. Taking my phone from the night stand I unlock it and start to go through my texts. I see many texts from Jean and then I remember that I had promised to meet her, I totally forgot. After Alina disappeared from work I had to sit there answering her calls until I lost track of time and before I knew it it was too late.

I send Jean an apology text and then go to Facebook, I keep scrolling endlessly. I'm not a social media person so I don't have many friends and there's not much to see here so I get off and put my phone back on the night stand. My mind takes me back to icy grey eyes and before I knew it I was goggling the name Alina Black and going through search results.

There's not much about her on the I internet just about the company. Well that was useless , rumours have it that she's in a Mafia organisation. I close my phone and put it back on the stand and close my eyes trying to sleep. I was about to drift off into sleep when I was shaken by a ping from my phone.

"Why are you still awake at this time Kitten?" I see a text message from an unknown number but it wouldn't take rocket science to know who send it. How did she know I'm still awake ? Where did she get my number? I feel excitement start to well up in my belly and I decide to be a little sassy and courageous this time and risk it all.

"What's it to you? I'M NIT YOUR KITTEN." I press send and wait for the reply with my heart full on  pumping blood so loudly I could hear it. I watch her starting to type a reply and I wait in anticipation. My bottom lip between my teeth.

And the she stops tying. My heart drops, trying to shake off the disappointment I close my phone and put it back on the night stand and close my eye to keep them from tearing up. I'm an easy hurt easy cry. My head is being filled with all kinds of thoughts about my past failed relationships or lack of. Am I that unworthy of love? Will I ever find someone who will love me for me?

Ring ring
My phone starts ringing and I almost just out of bed when I see the number on the screen. I make a mental note to save her number. I fumble for a moment before clearing my throat and answering.

"Hello ?"

"Hello kitten, it sounds like you have something to say to me." She says emphasising the word kitten

"Me? No I don't have anything to say." 

"Oh really?"

"Yes really."

"Okay then!"

"Okay!"

"Oh and kitten?"

"Yeah?"

"You are mine. My kitten You belong to me."

"Wha...."

"Goodnight love, get some rest. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning ."  She say and drops the phone before I could protest. I stare at the phone dumbfounded. I don't belong to anyone. I'm mine and no one else's. I put the phone on the nightstand for the last time and go to sleep. Even as I protest my heart fells warm and fuzzy at her last words and they play around in my mind as I drift off into peaceful sleep.

I woke up at my usual time for work however I was ready earlier than normal. I'm exited because Alina is picking me up today. I struggled to find the right clothes to wear so I finally settled on a black chino, a black shirt and a black cardigan. Im already ready and waiting  checking my phone for the time

06:57am

Im supposed to be at work in a short while but hey the boss is the one picking me up so I shouldn't worry about it. I pace around my apartment in anticipation and the butterflies that are dancing around in my stomach aren't helping.

Ping ping

I check my phone to see a message from her and I give my biggest smile ever.
"I'm in front of your apartment." 

I take my back and start for the door to find the most luxurious car I've ever seen parked there with Alex standing by the door. How many cars does she have anyway? It looks so out of place in this poor neighbourhood. I take the few steps to the car and greet Alex while he opens the door for me.

I get inside to find her working on her computer, she doesn't even look up as I enter the car so I just sit quietly and look out the window. She doesn't look like the person who was teasing me on the phone last night which makes me wonder if I imagined it but then gain she is picking me up which is proof that last night happened. We drive in uncomfortable silence. When we were about to pass my favourite coffee shop I fumble but eventually find my voice to speak, feeling tears building up in my eyes . "Alex can you please drop me off , I'll walk from here." I need my morning coffee but I also need to get away from her. I'm feeling rejected right now so I need to find a corner to cry.

She raises up her head at my voice and looks around to see where we were and I see Alex looking at her for approval and she nods still not looking my way. The car comes to a stop and I get out leaving half of my heart in the car behind. I feel a stray tear make it's way from my eye and down my cheek.

What was I thinking? I wipe the tear away and start walking to the café without looking back.
