Enemy Within

 Writer's point of view.....

  Catherine had the sound of Tracy's feet steps and ran quickly into to Tracy's room. She has been eavesdropping since she left the room and she was glad she has created a doubt in Tracy's mind. While she is in the house, Tracy will not look out for her but his sister which will enable her hatch her plans perfectly.

  She want a situation whereby Tracy will believe all she says, it will be an added advantage in getting Tasha to date her.

  With her feet tapping in the floor, she waited patiently for Tracy to come in and the moment the door opened, she started shivering like she has seen a ghost.

  Tracy was surprised to see her in that condition and rushed towards her,"What's wrong?"

  He asked anxiously while checking her out. He had a strange expression which made Catherine worried that maybe he had heard her conversation with Tasha. What if he knows what kind of things they were talking about? She needed to be careful.

"I'm fine. I just can believe my eyes. It was hard for me to hear you sister talk."

She said with tears gathering in her eyes.

  "What did she say? Did she hurt you with her words?"

He asked, concerned.

She shook her head."No, her words did not hurt me but they frightens me"

Catherine would not stop shivering and Tracy's anxiety continue to grow. He badly wanted to hear what Tasha has told Catherine.

"Then speak, Catherine. What did she say?"

His voice cracked, making him appear weak and vulnerable. Catherine looked up as her tears fell,"She said she likes me and would want to date me. I did do not know your sister like girls"

Her eyes filled with water,"What should I do? What am I supposed to do? What if she asks me to leave you and date her"

A tear slipped down her cheek."I love you, Tracy. I don't want to ever leave you or see anyone creating rift between us".

   He reached out his arm and pulled her close to hug her," She would not dare. My sister might like you, it's normal for her but I know one thing, she would not ask you to leave me when she knows you love me very much and yes, Tasha will not creat rift between us. She loves me very much so she will love you too because you are my girlfriend and even if you refuse to date her because of me, it will not cause any problem."

He said, wiping away her tears.

"It's okay, it's gonna be alright. Just calm down, my beautiful goddess"

   He added softly and kissed her forehead lovingly. The thought of losing her caused him pain. She meant the world to him.

  He will have to watch Tasha carefully. As much as he would not want this to bring problems between two of them, he would not also want Tasha to try her tricks this time around.

"I don't know when you will ever have a normal life"

He thought squeezing his face.

  Catherine while she snuggled against him, smiled to herself. She has successfully created the needed rift between the siblings, her plans will hatch slowly and once Tracy is completely against Tasha, she wouldn't have a choice but to date her, Catherine.

  Catherine slowly calmed down and relaxed her body against Tracy. He sighed with relief.

  "Are you fine now, my love?"

"Yes"

   Catherine answered carefully. Tracy nodded and helped her lie on the bed. After he was sure she is fine on the bed, he strengthened himself. 

"Wait for me let me take a shower"

He said cheerfully with a knowing smile plastered on his face. Catherine returned the smile and gestured for him to go. He kissed her forehead and walked away.

  Catherine was alone again. She smiled proudly to herself imagining how fun it will be to see Tracy and Tasha at war with each other, it will gladdens her heart to see that come true.

  "I will just have to play my games well. No doubt he loves me. He will always listen to what I say"

She whispered with a smirk.
