Lying on her bed, Katherine closed her eyes but the only thing she saw was the scene outside her door on repeat. 'How could he be so sure about how he feels?' she wondered. Here she was, trying to convince herself not to fall for him but saying that was being dishonest to herself.
He had done nothing but care for her ever since they met yet although she liked him, there was a nagging feeling that was not allowing her to fully accept that. It was as though she was afraid that if she gives in, she'll be very vulnerable.
Katherine went on dates a few times before but none of them really lasted for more than a week or two because the moment that they would start getting serious and get to know more about each other, she would suddenly back away and not see them again. She wondered if she had been broken-hearted or betrayed before which was why she was so afraid of being in a relationship.
