He came to see me!
Katherine was both shocked and surprised, She felt his warm hand on hers and she couldn't help but blush.
"Thank you for your concern." Katherine replied as she slowly took her hands back, Yes she is blind, But she was sure that the people in the cafeteria are looking at them.
Owen felt disappointed when she took her hand away, But that doesn't mean that he's going to stop trying.
"Did you had your lunch?" Owen asked as he took in her beautiful face features.
"Yes, I did." Katherine made her reply short hoping that he will leave soon.
The second disappointed for the day, Owen thought to himself, It's because of that asshole Damien.
"So, How was your first day at work? You can tell if anyone tried to bully you." Owen said wanting to make this conversation as long as possible.
Katherine laughed lightly at his words before she answered."No, no one bullied me, In fact they were very nice to me."
"You have a beautiful smile." Owen said as he tugged a strand of her soft dark hair behind her ear.
Katherine was stunned for a second by his sudden words and touch.
"I will be leaving now, Have a great day miss Katherine." Owen said before he left.
Katherine unconsciously clinched the fabric above her beating heart, Why is her heart started to beat fast when he touched her?
Katherine shook her head hopelessly and decided to stop thinking about it.
"Hello, May I join you?"She heard a woman voice.
"Yes."Katherine replied.
"You are new here?" The woman asked Katherine.
Katherine nodded her head."It's my first day." She answered.
The woman smiled at her before she said."Hope you enjoy the work here, But there is something I need to warn you about."

"Warn me about?" Katherine asked confused.
"Yes, The man who was sitting with you just now, Owen Lawrence, Be careful of this man, He is known with his bad reputation, He sleeps with every girl he likes and then move to the next one, I'm warning you because you seemed to me that you are a harmless girl." The woman said making Katherine shocked.
So that's why he is following her?
"Thank you for warning me." Katherine replied as she stood up, She opened her stick and carefully walked towards the exit.
Somehow she felt hurt, Though he hadn't done anything to harm her still she couldn't help feel hurt.
...
At Ina house.
It was midnight when Ina woke with the need of using the bathroom, She got off the bed and walked out of her room hiding towards the bathroom when she heard her mother voice.
Her mother is crying!
Ina walked towards the leaving room and found her mother sitting in the dark, Alone.
"Mom, What's wrong, Why are you crying?"Ina asked as she walked towards her.
Wiping her tears quickly, She turned the lights on the corner on.
"It's nothing, I'm just tired." Her mother said as patted the empty space on the couch for Ina to take.
"Tired? Are you sick? Do you want to go to the hospital?" Ina started to panic.
"No, I'm fine Ina, What I meant that I'm emotionally tired." Her mother replied as she pulled Ina in her arms, Running her hands gently through her hair.
"No matter what happens to us Ina, I want you to always be strong, Okay?" Her mother said as she cupped her face and made her look at her.
Ina nodded her head and saw her mother smile at her before she kissed her forehead.
