"Katie Kat"

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^

My hearts stuck in my throat and my brain starts to malfunction. I can't think. I don't even know what to do. If I try to forget, the more it would start to creep back into my mind. So its pointless if I do it. I try to forget the voice of his but I simply can't.

Am I hearing things? Am I actually dead? Is it even possible, I'm dead?

I kick the nearest solid thing my eyes land on. Sadly it a wall but I kick it anyways to answer my raging curiosity. A shock of pain travels up from my possibly broken toes to my literally malfunctioning brain causing me to yelp in pain.

'You had to kick the wall when you should've just pulled your hair', my rational side declares.

"Yes. I had to. This time I'm pretty sure im not dead. I'm not even living."I say out loud.

The voice is too much for me to take. Full of familiarity and memories floods my head. Hurt and regret filling my heart.

Why can't he leave me alone?

"Nobody calls me that." I say with distaste. "How'd ya get my number?"

Silence and heavy breathing answers me. If he won't answer I'm going to hang up. Every second I wait only breaks my heart, bringing me back to the hurtful past.

"God I missed your voice."He says, extinguishing the silence.

"Don't play coy with me, Mr. Humphrey. Its either you say what you want or bullshit, I'm hanging up."

I shouldn't have taken the phone from Aisha. I should've left before she was able to catch up to me. Now I'm here, stuck in my office with my satchel on my hand and a coat around me, ready to leave. But instead I'm stuck here talking to my no good ex like a wet puppy.

"Whats with the formality? Its not like we haven't been together. It was always Matt or Matthew to you."He says, not bothering to tell his reason of calling me.

I have a scowl on my face and my finger is propped on the 'end-call' button ready to hang up any second.

"Thats it. You're bullshitting me. I'm giving you 10 second to state why you called me or even had my number in the first."

"Okay, okay. I still had your old number and thought maybe you changed it but I took my chances and called. But you weren't the one who answered it, some girl named Aisha did."He rambles.

My brows narrow at his pathetic explanation. He wouldn't be calling me if he needed something. Its rather very peculiar of him.

"And what does your explanation have to do with calling me?" I ask.

"Um, can I talk to you?"He says with hesitation.

"Is that why you called and killed my day?"

Talk to my ass you pathetic little player. I am trying to move on here! Then you happen and now I'm back to square one where all my grief is. Thanks a lot you freaking lunatic! Whats his favor sounds like to me? A meet and greet with the demon himself.

"No, thats not the reason. Can you just meet up with me? In person?"He says with an edge on his voice.

I should've know that was coming. In the movies, the line he just said is always said by the guy who did wrong and asking for a second chance. The girl gives in until she realizes she was toyed with the second time. Heartbreak and depression controls her life until suicide becomes her last option. Well most of the times, the movies I watch usually does that. But suicide? For me? No. I'm not that depressed with Matt cheating on me with my best friend. Thats right. My best friend for for more than 7 years was his fuck buddy. The whole thing even has been going on for two years behind my unsuspecting back. I trusted them too much. I hope karma has caught up with them already. I am happy he cheated on me. Without his idiotic ways and player genes, I wouldn't have been Vice CEO of one of the most successful companies in the world. That right, Katherine Isabelle McPherson is technically proud to be cheated on. That sounds, wrong. Very wrong.
