His Rebound

Chapter 19

" You bloody stupid girl, what the hell you did?" A girl in her early teens shoved papers in Katherine's hand and she shivered.

"You fucking don't know how to copy notes?" She questioned making the 7-year-old flinch.

"I...Sorry...I'll do it again." She pleaded but the teen grabbed her long hair and pulled them hard. Katherine winced in pain as a tear streamed from her eyes but her predator showed no signs of mercy.

"Yoy don't know how to do a fucking thing right you bitch. Now do it again and this time, if I find any mistake I'll make sure you regret coming here." Threatening the little girl, she pushed her away and stormed out of the room closing the door with the loud thud behind her.

The little girl was left behind to cry with her loneliness and the task her predator give to complete.

I snapped back to reality and stared myself in the mirror. They were right, they all were right from the start. I am stupid, I am an idiot, I am useless and nobody wants me. I can only make things worse and even today, I did the same. I ruined Sebastian's plan breaching the contract and upsetting him over it.

I brush my hair letting all the tears fall freely from my eyes. I deserve this I deserve much worse. To meet Sebastian's family today I was trying to get ready but I couldn't even dress on my own well to impress.

It took me hours to get ready as I really didn't know what would be an appropriate dress to wear for this dinner as I hadn't been to any before. Although Mr. and Mrs. Walter are very nice and friendly, yet I didn't want to ruin my impression I had made. After many thoughts, I finally decided to stick onto a simple navy blue dress that ended a little below to my knees. Its sleeves were till my elbows and it was the perfect dress for the dinner according to me. I don't like dresses which shows much skin and that's why in my little to no collection of dresses but this was one of my favourite dress as it was gifted my Marie.

I did do little makeup that simply included mascara and my strawberry lip balm. For my hair, I was planning to let them loose.

I was practising hard to smile in the mirror and once I was satisfied enough to act, I got up and wore my black flats. I left my room and made my way downstairs to the living room to see if Sebastian was ready or not but he was still in his room and I didn't have the valour to go there, so I patiently waited for him downstairs. He took an hour extra to get ready and when he came down my apprehensions hiked making me stand up in attention.

I know he was upset and angry at me. He definitely wants to shout on me but somehow he didn't. I didn't want to make him further angry by looking ugly for the dinner at his parent's house. I was fidgeting with my rings but his voice made me look up.

"You are looking good." He smiled and I nervously gave him a tight smile.

"We are twinning too...unintentionally though...but it's cliché." He said and then I looked at what he was wearing. He was wearing a navy blue colored shirt paired with black jeans. His hair was gelled backwards and I must say he looked good as well as young in it.

"I..I'll go and change." I said nervously and began walking towards my room but then his voice made me stop.

"No...it's fine...we are giving some major couple goals."

"Are you sure?"

"Positive. Now let's get going." He said while grabbing the keys of his car.

"Anything specific I should be aware of?" I asked feebly and he stopped thinking for a while.

"I don't think so. I'll be always around you or if not me than Sarah but still if you get stuck in any situation try to make up some story or the best thing pretend to forget." He told me as we rode down the elevator. I was already nervous about meeting his parents and this answer wasn't helping me at all.
