"Excuse me, what do you mean by that?" I ask. Is he perhaps insinuating I bring different men into my bedroom?
He chuckled before responding, "Oh Catherine please don't take it the wrong way. Get those crazy ideas off your head"
I chuckled a little before responding
"You know you're funny right, you instigate things and then you act dumb"
He furrowed his brow looking at me again like he has no idea what I am saying. If he doesn't, I will explain it to him in simple tense
"Please Adam, listen to me okay, you are the one that needs to get These crazy ideas out of your head. Alright?"
"Oh my God Cherry, you never cease to amaze me
"Must be Michael" He said "Yes" "I have to go" "Okay, won't you eat before you leave?" I ask. To be honest I don't want him to go, I wish he stays close by so he would stay a little longer. "Depends on Michael" Adam said as he got up "Alright. I will see you off then" We left my room and headed straight to the sitting room. There we found Michael and Patricia talking with my parents. ADAM POV "There you are bro, where have you been? Michael asked as I got close to him. 
ADAM POV And just like that, I am no longer a single man.. at least for some time before the truth comes to light. "Can't believe this," I said to myself while chuckling. How can a person leave home as a single man and return that same day as someone whose engagement and wedding is being planned? "What! This is fucked up man" I said as I shake my head in disbelief. What a strange world, I can't believe that I was laughing at my friend hours ago for how foolish he is for settling down not knowing I will fall into the same foolishness. "Life has a funny way of twisting fate
From my room I can hear the sound of greetings as if welcoming someone, Adam must be here. looking at the wall clock in my room it is exactly 12 pm on the dot. Wow, very punctual. I feel so nervous right now, I don't know how to react. How did we get here? This whole thing still feels like a dream, gently I pinched myself just so I could be sure, the sharp pain I felt confirmed my reality. "Ouch" I gasp in pain, robbing the part I pinched. Shit that hurts. "Are you alright?" Amanda asks with a worried look on her face. "Yes I am fine." "Alright you need to go down now, I think Adam is here I can hear voices coming from downstairs"
"Can I go see him?" Mom ask unable to contain her happiness "Yes you may. He asks for Catherine to accompany you. Please, who is Miss Catherine?" The doctor asks, a middle aged man as he looks between Patricia, Amanda and I trying to figure out who it could be among us. Raising my right hand I identified myself "I I am Catherine" "Good you may go in with her" "I will be coming along too" Adam said as he was reluctant to let go of my hand The doctor had no choice but to agree as Adam's presence is quite intimidating. In fact, everyone one working in this hospital is afraid of him. Although the femal
CATHERINE POV After a 20 minutes ride, Adam pulled off at a parking spot in front of an open field that looked like a hill. "So this is as far as we can go with the car. We will walk the remainder of the journey" Adam said as he got out of the car. Quickly I got off too. We walked for some minutes in a peaceful silence before finally getting to a place that feels like we are at the top of a high mountain. "Where are we?" I ask, feeling afraid. I am scared of heights. Why will he bring me here? "We are on a hill but as you can see, it looks like a mountain. Isn't it beautiful?" He asks, I wonder what is so beautiful about it. M
Refusing to be dragged out disgracefully I stop to give him a befitting reply."Is this the way you treat your customers without providing an alternate solution? Take your hands off me, you fool""I am sorry ma'am but you have to leave. You are distorting the way for are expected customers"Angry, I look at him "I said, take your hands off me"In the midst of the commotion the manager came out to handle the situation. Relieved, at least he will handle the situation better considering how sensible he looks."What is going on here?" He asks in his elderly voice. He looks so frail, I hope he is okay."Sir, I w
CATHERINE POVWhat is wrong with him, see the way he is smiling. I am sure he has completely forgotten the purpose of this meeting. We really need to think of a way out."So tell me, if my dad or any of my family ask how we met, what should we say?""I don't know, what do you suggest?" He asked. Finally he has stopped smiling and has entered serious mode.After much thought I was able to think of something "Let us say we met during my masters degree. How about that?""That is fine by me, so what next?" He ask"What!" I ask confuse as to what he is asking"What will be the
But first I need to take off her shoes. I would have taken her to the bathroom to freshen up, but knowing Patty she would freak out in the morning. Michael chuckled, remembering the last time he did that. Patricia nearly brought the house down with her screams. For some reason she doesn't like things like that being done while she is unconscious. After removing her shoes I covered her with the duvet properly. Done with that, I head straight to the bathroom to have a nice shower before going to bed because tomorrow I and Patricia will have a long talk. Because of her I will be absent from office tomorrow and being absent isn't really my thing. But I have no choice but to be absent because an angry Patricia is worse than tons of work being compiled in the office.
