Kathrina POV I had to walk down to Rylan's house for ten minutes.I walked up to the door and pressed the doorbell button two times before Mrs Miranda opened the door."Good morning," I said."Good morning, how're you doing?""I'm fine." "Come in," she said, moving aside. I walked in and she closed the door behind.We sat down in the living room and she said."I'm a bit surprised to see you this morning.""Well, my mom said I should bring this over." I stretched out the bag."It's healing cabbage soup. She was worried after you left yesterday. She thought you might have caught a cold so asked me to bring this to you.""That's so thoughtful of her. I really was craving for soup this morning." She took the bag, peeped inside and grinned at me.We heard a creak and shifted our gaze down to the hall by the kitchen.Rylan emerged and glanced at me. I stared at him as he walked into the kitchen showing indifference to my presence."So, would you like to have breakfast with me?" Mrs Mirand

Kathrina POVFew days later, I was at the backyard of the house, talking to Hayden on the phone when Monna walked up to me from the kitchen door leading to the back porch."Someone wants to see you, Katherina. She's waiting at the front porch," Monna informed. I nodded and she left"I will talk to you later, Hayden," I said and hung up, tucking my phone into the back of my pocket, I tucked my hair behind my left ear and started walking to the front porch.Mrs Miranda was on the porch, her back facing me when I walked up to the steps."Mrs Miranda?" She spun and smiled."Hey, Kathrina," she waved at me as I stepped on the top stairs."What are you doing here, ma'am?" I asked."Actually, I came over here to see you. I want to talk to you."I nodded. "Let's go in…""No. Is it okay if we just talk out here?" She asked."All fine," I said. I motioned at the table and we sat on the bench behind the table."I wouldn't like t9 bear around the bush, but," she paused, staring at me like she was

Rylan POV"Understood?!" I tried my very best to sound like the cold jerk she had always seen me like.What's wrong with her? I thought in my mind. Staring at her, I was actually trying damn hard to read her mind, but, unfortunately I couldn't.Never in my wildest imagination have I for once thought that she would want to be friends with me, her highschool detestable enemy.She was just gazing at me now with shaking eyes, so innocently that one can hardly think so is a brazen little cat.I opened my mouth to talk but she faux coughed forcing me to tilt my head aside, gnashing my teeth."M…my shoulders," she muttered, making me dart my eyes to her. I flicked glances at my grips on her shoulders then slowly pulled down my hand."I just lost it, sorry," I apologized without thinking."You're crazy!" She cussed and pushed me back with a frown."My shoulders are now aching and if I get to rip off my jacket, I bet your awful handprints would be on my delicate shoulders…""Then rip it off le

Kathrina POV"Mom, what are you preparing?" I asked later in the evening as I walked into the kitchen."She's making Chicken pot pie, spaghetti pie casserole and pot roast with potatoes," Monna told me, at the other end of the counter top, holding up a bowl of chicken."What the…!" I paused as my mom flicked a glance at me. "Why make all that for dinner, mom?!""Rylan is coming over for dinner with Miranda, forgotten?" She asked and I sighed.I actually forgot about that after taking a shower. I can't believe she's making all this because Rylan is coming over. This is totally off it!"Mom, Rylan perhaps won't show up, okay?" I tried to convince her but she flicked me a stare in return."Just shut up and help me out here!" She ordered. I found myself dragging my feet to her with a frown."You can help finish up peeling the potatoes," she said and motioned at the bowl of potatoes at the edge of the counter.I quickly did as she instructed and snuck out of the kitchen."Are your guests r

Kathrina POVStepping out on the lawn after contemplating for almost five minutes, I quickly sent a call across to Lita."Hello, girlfriend, don't tell me you are almost reaching my home?" Lita's excited voice burst through the phone the very minute she picked up.I was wordless for a while before talking."Actually…Litty, I won't be coming over this morning…""Hold on." I heard her groan through the phone. I guess she's mad now."I know the very second you called me 'Litty' you were going to say something unfavorable. Geez, you texted me a while ago, okay?!""Yeah, but…""Nah. No fucking buts and ifs. You know I actually gave up a super date with Max so we both can hang out.""I'm sorry.""No you're definitely not. It's been weeks since we last spent a whole day having fun together! You don't care about ME.""I promise I will be at your house before 12 noon.""Really? And you think I will be waiting for you at home till then so we can go out? Hell no." "Lita, I…" she hung up when I
