The woman he fell in love

It’s a bright morning, Cathy’s tinder date whose name is John is still sleeping on my living room couch. She literally waited for the daybreak to get rid of him. She had made up my mind that it won’t work between them within the first hour of time spent with him. He was so intimidating. She was really not interested in guys who are kind of dominating. She was expecting the one who can treat me so well, and Of course, she will do the same. Later he requested to stay in my home for one night since his home is far and it was past 11 already. And so, she agreed to it. It’s 7 am, and I’ve to leave for work. Also, she had a meeting with my team lead in an hour, but still, John is sleeping. she brought all her courage and woke him up, “John, I’ve to leave for work. Can you get and fresh up…? I can drop you at the nearby bus stop or something…” “Huh…,” he stretched his hands out, “No, I am good. I’ll wait here when you return.” What the hell… Is he homeless or what? Really… is this happening? “Umm… no John you can’t stay because my brother will come anytime and if he knows I am dating… I would be in trouble.” “Okay, I’ll leave sometimes before he comes…” Oh my god… In fact, I don’t have a brother. I am the only child. I just lied to him. I should do something. Else he’s not going to leave my home. Cathy’s parents are divorced, and both of them are always busy is business trips and their new family. Yes, they both were married to someone else and they each have their own happy family. They have a family business and two big industries to take care of. Her father, Edward Collins is the chairman whereas her mother Sarah is the Head of one of the industries. Though they are divorced; they are in a pact they look after the company so well without getting any bad influence of their personal stuff. Most of the time, she spent time in her own house which her parents have bought for her a year ago as a gift for her new job. Maybe her parents have thought that she should not disturb their new family. It’s a good luxury home, but that doesn’t mean she is happy with her life. The house is always empty. Even If she was gone for days, her parents would take days to realize it. She was so lonely all the time. Now she is getting used to it. She used to date but eventually, she started hating guys who even raise their voice a little or argue with her for small things, and she hates guys who are possessive or not trustworthy. Till today, she has not found any guy who was in line with all her conditions. It’s been quite a long that she felt she is loved. Even a cyborg would be shown a basic kindness and she felt she was worse than it. So apparently, she lost interest in being in a relationship. Instead, she was away from all these hectic things. But months later, John insisted on her on tinder for a date and she just agreed because she was bored. So, this is the half story of Cathy's rich unlucky life. Luckily, she ended up in a software engineer job which is very useful for her to get engaged most of the time and so helped her distract from her pathetic rich lonely life. She has a colleague, whose name is Linda, who was also her high school best friend. She is working in a different sector in the same company. They both hanged together until she found her soul mate. Now, Cathy’s mind asked to call Linda and she did indeed. But Linda didn’t pick it up. So, she made a plan and she rushed out, she saw few men walking on the street. And she approached the one with good looking and a well-muscled body, to freak out John. “Hello, sir, I am sorry to take your time. But I really need help. I am in a trouble. Can you please help me out?” she ran behind him. He turned towards me. He saw me, turned again, and started walking. “Sir, please, I am really in trouble. Please help me.” He stopped and turned to me, “What,” he asked so solemnly. He looked so grumpy. She still suspected whether he will help or make her fun out of this. He looked like a guy who was capable of bullying everyone. He was wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans – well-combed spikes and a black suit in hand, thrown on his shoulders, coolers in the pocket. He looked so handsome, but his attitude was the worst, worse than John's. She told him everything about the tinder date. She also added, “I need your help. Can you please just act like my ex-boyfriend… just for 5 minutes? You just poke into my home and be angry that I have dated another man so soon. And it would freak him out and he will leave my house. Please, please…” “What’s your name?” “Cathy. And yours?” “Harry.” “Great… Can I meet you inside my house after 5 mins?” He nodded solemnly. “Thank you so much.” She grinned and rushed into my home.
