Just A Step Away

Chapter 30

Katherine's POV:

"Just do it darker from here. It'll look sexier." My hair designer suggested the new markup artist, who was constantly making faces because he was getting really irritated with those unwanted instructions.

"Ana, I think I don't need anything else for my hair from you." I pointed at her amusingly but being enough serious for her to understand that it was time for her to leave.

As soon as she left, Alex, the makeup artist gave me an obliged smile.

Ring Ring.

I picked up my phone after checking the caller ID cautiously.

Jackson.

"Short is ready." He said.

"Okay Coming in two minutes." I replied and hanged up the call.

"Is it done?" I asked Alex while checking myself out.

"Yes, you are looking perfect." He replied.

"Thank you." I smile at him and stood up to leave.

I was wearing printed summer dress which was off shoulder and was ending on my upper thigh. My short hair was straightened and gelled up perfectly. I looked at my hair and thought about my long and curly hair. I loved my hair.

He loved them more.

I didn't want anything on me which he admired. I've cut all the strings which would lead me to him.

You can cut all strings but what about your soul? Your soul which met with his' that night.

I closed my eyes and tried to wash away the images of that night.

*Flashback*

"Darwin, what are we?" I asked frantically.

"We are each other's home. There is no tag present in this world which can describe us. You are my Sunshine and as you say, I'm your savior. That's what we are." He said and pecked my lips.

*End of flashback*

I shook my head and finally took myself out from those thoughts.

I saw Jackson flirting with some random girls when I stepped out from my vanity van.

"Jackson." I waved my hand and called out his name to get his attention.

"I'll be right back. Don't forget to call me." Jackson wrote his number on one of the girls' hand and winked them before heading towards me.

"You'll never change." I laughed at him and said.

He opened his mouth to say something while walking but before that, a black car came in between and its door opened in front of me.

Before we could register anything, a man in black coat came out from the car and pulled my hand.

"Hey, stop!" I tried to free my hand but all in vain.

Jackson and other guys ran to save me but they were too late to do anything. That man took me in and speed off the car from there.

"Who are you? Why can't you leave me already?" I whined and tried to free my hands continuously.

No reply.

It was not the first time that something like that was happening with me. I've been attacked several times but luckily I always got saved.

Either those men were complete losers or I'm too lucky. They never get succeed in whatever they wanted to do with me. They-

Suddenly a bike came in front of the car with full speed and jumped just above the hood of the car, making the front glass break.
