Chereads / His Only Love / Chapter 24 - Just accept him

Chapter 24 - Just accept him

After he left her, she couldn't believe that Zach loved her. The way he was glaring at her and the kiss, she couldn't believe that it was him doing that. Brianna always told her that Zach liked her but she always denied it. She always told her that she was overthinking about everything. But this time around he confessed his love to her. He wanted her to know that he loved her so much. She knew that, what was between them was the platonic type of love. But to him that wasn't the case, he loved her so much.

"What am I going to do now. I don't love him like he wants me to love him, I don't want to loose him as my best friend". She didn't want to loose him as her friend. She was conflicted about what she was supposed to do. Zach was a good friend to her and she felt bad for denying him. She then gasped out loudly as she layed on the bed. After a few minutes, someone knocked on the door. She stood and headed towards the door. As she opened it Brianna was standing there with a wide smile. She loved the way Brianna was always jovial. She opened the door for her to enter.

"What's the problem...?" Brianna asked her. She could see that Cat wasn't alright. She saw it in her eyes the way she was saddened. She could see it on her face that everything wasn't alright.

"It's Zach he told me earlier that he loves me", Cat informed her. Brianna's eyes widened as her lips parted as she stared at Cat with amusement. She always told her before that he liked her but she didn't accept it. Cat always told her that Zach loved her like a friend. But Brianna saw it first before he confessed his love to her.

"So what did you tell him...?" Brianna raised a question. She wanted to know how Cat reacted when he told her that he loved her. She hoped that Cat said yes to him.

"I told him no that I don't love him that way", Cat mentioned. She told her the way that she answered Zach. It wasn't her intention to deny him. She didn't love him like a lover. She always viewed him like her older brother. Even when she was looking at him, she didn't feel the same like how Shawn made her feel. She stood and headed towards the kitchen area. She took a glass and filled it with water. She later drunk it quickly to quench her thirst. After she was done drinking the water, she sat on her bed as she was facing Brianna.

"Why... you could just accept him. He is a very good guy and you know it. We have known him for quite a while", Brianna didn't like that Cat refused him. She expected her to accept him as her lover. She always wished that they would be together someday. She didn't like that she refused him cause she had no feelings for him.

"No, you don't get it. I just love him like a brother, not a lover", she informed her. She couldn't just accept him cause he was a good guy. She didn't love him like a lover, the love she had for him was purely platonic.

"Is it cause of Shawn do you like him huh...?" Brianna went straight to the point. She wanted to know the main reason why Cat didn't accept Zach. She stood and headed towards her bed. She wanted to be closer to her so that she could see her reactions. She always wished that Cat had a boyfriend. Since she met Cat, she has never been in any relationship yet. This made her worry cause maybe she had her reasons for that. Even though Cat assured her that she didn't have any reason for that. She didn't believe her at all. She wished that one day Cat would fall in love with her prince charming.

"No I don't like Shawn he is my boss remember", Cat assured her that Shawn wasn't the reason why she didn't accept Zach as her boyfriend.

"So if he isn't the reason why don't you have a boyfriend. Why do you love staying single? Since we met you have never been in a relationship. Or did a guy do something bad to you that made you not want any guy in your life", Brianna asked her. She wanted to know the main reason why Cat didn't like being in a relationship like other girls on campus.

"No nothing bad happened to me. I just don't think it's the best time for me to be in a relationship", Cat informed her. She didn't want to engage in love before she could find her mother. All she wanted to do was to find her mother first before she became committed to other things. But she couldn't inform Brianna that cause she wasn't supposed to tell anyone her life story.

"When is the best time huh...", Brianna wasn't making things easy for her. Cat didn't know what she was supposed to tell her. She stared at her for a bit before she could answer her.

"You will just see the time", those were the words that came out of her mouth. This was the best answer that she could answer her. She didn't want her to continue asking her when she was going to have a boyfriend. That was the least of her concern.

"Alright Cat will be waiting for that day. It's now time for us to start cooking. Am so hungry", Brianna informed her. Since she came back from visiting her boyfriend they have been talking.

"Ooh yeah it's about time to do that", Cat stood and headed towards the kitchen area. She took the onions and started peeling them.

"What are you planning to make this time", Brianna questioned Cat. Since Cat was a better chef than her. She was the one who always made breakfast and supper.

"Aaah just making rice and vegetable stew", Cat informed her.

"Yaay let's start cooking", Brianna said as she was watching Cat chop the onions.
