Chapter 13

Here,drink this quickly before it gets cold,he said dnd dhde took it drinking it slowly before he said"you did look cute in with a bird's nest on your head,he said jokingly and she almost choked on the soup.

Are you okay?,he asked looking at her flushed face.

Am fine,she said shrugging him off.

So why are you here?,she asked straightforwardly.

I know you're busy and don't make visits unless it is important,she said and he looked at her.

It's concerning what you said yesterday,he said and she looked puzzled.

Yesterday?,she asked.

You don't remember,he said and she shook her head.

You said something about me having a girlfriend,he said and she instantly remembered.

You said being close to me was inviting trouble to you,he said and knowing she couldn't hide it again she let out a heavy sigh.

Will you tell me now,or continue ignoring me,he half asked.

It started the day that lady came,her name was veronica i guess,kathlyn started and she could see the darkened expression on his face.

She came ul to me and said she wanted to have a chat,so i let her talk and she told me that i should stay away from you,at first i thought she was crazy till she said she was your girlfriend and she was quite possessive of you so....,kathlyn said but was cut short by his deep yet elegant voice.

You ignored me completely without trying to find out anything aboit what she said,logan said.

I tried asking you that day but you seemed really doen and you didn't seem like you would like to talk to anyone,later on she called and told me that she has being watching me and saw how close i was with you even after what she told me,i tried to explain but she threatened me with my family if i still stayed close to you except when we were on shot.

You could've confirmed ,he said and she looked down to avoid eye contact with him.

I actually thought you guys were dating,that day i thought you got into a fight thats why you were down,she said and he stared at her with raised brow not expecting that reply she gave him,understanding his stare she immediately kept quiet.

Sorry,i will inquire next time,she said.

There will be no next time,he said and arranged her front hair making them seem closer,out ot the blues the front door opened and val stared at them like a zombie in their not so friend like posture.

Geez you guys get a room,valerie said recovering from her shock quickly.

Shameless girl,she mumbled and logan heard it clearly making him chuckle.

Go take a shower,i can smell alcohol evem from that distance,kathlyn said and valerie rolled her eyes.

Yeah whatever am going,you guys continue feom where you stopped,valerie said.

Come down quickly for breakfast,kathlyn said as valerie ran to her room.

I'll get going now,logan said attempting to get up and she felt she didn't want him to leave all of a sudden,but few minutes ago she didn't want him close to her.

How complicated can someone be.

You can stay for breakfast,if you want to...i dont know do what you want,she said and left to go to the kitchen to prepare something.

She had to make something heavy considering valerie who drank heavily and hadn't eaten anything.

She decided to make a vegetarian steam dumpling ,tofu soup and vegetable porridge thankfully all the ingredients were intact and she didn't need to go to the nearby supermarket.

While preparing the dish she was so concentrated in making ,she didn't notice someone watching her from the kitchen counter,valerie came downstairs when she was done freshening up and saw logan admiring kathlyn from the kitchen counter,she saw him smiling ear to ear and dragged him into the living room.

You are so much in love with her,aren't you?,valerie half questioned though not asking.

I saw you smiling right now so don't lie,she whispered.

You think i love her?,logan asked.

Isn't it obvious,she said but he sighed making her smile shortened.

You're still confused about veronica aren't you,valerie said.

Do you still love her?,she added praying for it not to be accurate.

I don't,he said and she smiled.

Then move on,look at my pretty friend,she definitely is your type and you seem interested in her,valerie suggested and added before he could say anything.

Well think deeply about it,am going to go help her now,valerie said and headed to the kitchen.

You need help with anything?,valerie asked as she entered the kitchen.

No need for that am almost done here,just go sit,I'll be done soon,kathyln instructed and she took out a fresh apple from the kitchen fridge and bit into it.

Is that tofu?,valerie asked not listening to instructions aand hovering around the kitchen.

hmm,she nodded skeptically.

Normally she would prepare little for beeakfast,but as she had another mouth to feed and not being sure of what he would like to eat,she decided on what to cook,it took her some time but she finished cooking and placed the dishes on the dining table while valerie and logan were seated,valerie was admiring the dishes while logan was admiring the chef,when she was done she sat down.

Well dig in,she said and val was already gobbling it down like a monster.

Come on try it,kathlyn siad looking at logan as he tasted the food,he looked awestruck.

It's really good,he complemented.

Thank you,she said and began to eat.

Kathlyn only ate the vegetarian steam dumpling as she was okay watching others enjoy the food.
