Linda didn’t notice Catherine all the way. Sitting on a window seat, she peered out of the window. Gradually, she thought about Finnley and Mya in his bed.
She was jealous and upset.
When the bus arrived at her destination, Linda returned to her senses and got off the bus. Catherine followed her.
Under the beautiful sunset glory, Linda walked toward her rented apartment without looking back.
She was exhausted. Since Finnley was on vacation, she had to deal with more tasks. She went upstairs and downstairs more than 20 times and took the minutes for several meetings.
Her apartment was far away from downtown. Her shadow was elongated on the ground by the sunlight.
Finally, Linda noticed a shadow behind her. She stopped mid-step, and so did that shadow.
‘Am I stalked?’
Her heart tightened. Linda inwardly told herself not to fear as it was still the daytime.
She plucked up her courage and turned around. Then she met Catherine’s calm gaze.
Linda was taken aback as Catherine was supposed to be in Roxy Fall.
If it were before, she would greet Catherine dearly. However, for some reason, she got a lump in her throat.
They looked at each other in silence.
“Hi, Linda,” Catherine walked up and greeted her apologetically to break the ice.
Linda calmed down, looking less awkward. However, she didn’t know what to speak.
“Linda, I don’t want to lose a friend like you. I returned from Roxy Fall to see you,” Catherine explained, “My design team is still there. I came to you deliberately. In fact, I haven’t slept well for a few days.”
Her words made Linda feel guilty.
