My Dictator!

Chapter 6

Catherine's POV

I ran and ran down the pavement of the streets,listening to a soft love song.
I was myself unsure of how I ended up listening to such a song .As soon as I put on my headphone,the soft Korean song played.Moreover, I didn't mind listening to such a song.Indeed my heart wanted it too
I decided to jog alone today.Every time Barbara was beside me,I would not remain in peace.She kept on blabbering about all the unwanted things in life and I sometimes ends up wondering why someone as useless and witless as Barbara could be created by the creator.
I woke up  much before the usual timing of our routine and I was sure that she'll be searching for me all over the house.That'll treat her better.
At 6:00 a.m.,I reached home and as I expected,everyone was in a panicked mode especially Barbara,who looked so tensed with teary eyes,messy hair and night robe.It was such a good scene to look at.
'Catherine??You went alone?Without me?And I was here searching for you the whole house and I even thought you were kidnapped or something else.How could you be so thoughtless.You did not even think to wake me up?So inconsiderate.I do that every morning.'
'Are you saying all that to me?Do you think that I am some kind of a personal secretary of yours?NO I AM NOT. So I have my own life and you don't have the right to step in to every business of mine.'
I angrily stormed out of the room and went up.
I knew that I should be an elder sister to her,treating her with love and showing her ways that will result in positive benefits.But she was different.
I had my breakfast in my room which tasted burned and salty.
I started to realise that my life has been going along very lame and boring lately.There were no sources present to excite me or to keep me entertained.I almost felt lifeless.I had nothing to do but to sleep the whole time,dreaming and having unwanted,silly thoughts of fairytales almost everyday.
It was almost midnight.I couldn't sleep and I stared out the window, wondering when the world would come to an end,until a black car parked outside and there appeared a Lady with high inched stilettos and a long dress that didn't suit her at all.I looked closely.And to my horror,it was Barbara with Dustin.It hurt me intensely. What would happen next?
It was the second time that Dustin's presence affected me.I could have a clearer aspect of him only that moment as I was drunk the other day.He was taller than I noticed the first time,and his mastered structure stirred me up so hard that my heart beat started to beat harder and harder.
The ugly situation at that moment shook me up from drooling over him more.HE WAS WITH BARBARA.
The next moment,they were under one another's arms,hugging.
Please don't take the next step.Please!Please!
I layed down in my bed,with the pillow covering my face.I couldn't bear to see that scene at least.
But I was prompted to.I slowly peeped out again but they were gone and the car still parked at the same spot.WAIT!Were they going further into their world of fantasy?
The heartbeat sounded louder and I needed a glass of water at that moment. I ran down to the kitchen and there he was, standing tall and leaning his hands in the table.
'Ah..How comes?Ever..rythin.g okay?'I knew I sounded kind but I had to.
'Hi..!I came here to drop Barbara home.She just went up to get Kobe's T-shirt which he left it here.I'm giving it to him.'
'Okay'I turned back and ascended up the stairs without drinking the water.I had to get out of that situation.
'Catherine!'A long pause 'Are you
leaving?' He knew my name?
OH GOD!That eased my soul.
I turned around.'Um..so?Its almost midnight' 'I thought you wouldn't mind spending some time with me.Will you?'
'What are you talking about?'
'I am talking about going for a long ride.With you.'He smiled.
'Barbara will come down now.You can go for the ride with her'
'You.Not her' 'I'm serious.She'll be here now with Kobe's shirt' 'The thing is,I'm more serious than you are.Come with me.' 'Umm..okay'
