Chapter 37 TIRED

KATRINA’S P O V

I looked at myself in the mirror, constantly touching the ends of my ponytail. Why did I agree to go home with Cohen?

Because you were just thinking about your mother-in-law, and not him. My mind answered.

She's always been so nice to me. I couldn't miss her birthday just because of her stupid son.

I sighed as I mentally noted that I would talk about this with Cohen after the birthday dinner. With that thought drilled into my head, I walked out of the restroom with my head lowered as I normally did.

As I neared Cohen’s office, I could see that the shutters were rolled up, so I could see him and Clarisse behind the glass wall, sitting on the couch. They were having what seemed like a cozy conversation. She was talking and he was just staring at her, listening attentively.
