Alexa turned to face Kathy, bewildered at what she was insinuating. “What are you talking about, Kathy?” she asked.
Kathy let out a bitter laugh, “You really don’t know, do you? You’re the reason Nolan doesn’t like me anymore.”
Alexa was taken aback by Kathy’s words. “What? That’s not true. I haven’t done anything to come between you and Nolan,” she said, trying to defend herself.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Kathy rolled her eyes, “Oh, come on, Alexa. You’ve been parading around here with Anthony, flaunting your new relationship in everyone’s faces. It’s no secret that Nolan had a thing for you before Anthony came into the picture.”
Alexa shook her head in disbelief. “That’s ridiculous, Kathy. Nolan and I are just friends,” she protested.
Kathy scoffed, “Friends? Please, Alexa. You don’t know anything about relationships. Nolan has been ignoring me ever since you started hanging out with him. He’s clearly interested in you, and you’re too blind to see it.”
Alexa was starting to get annoyed at Kathy’s accusations. “I don’t appreciate you blaming me for your problems with Nolan. Maybe you should look at yourself and figure out why he’s lost interest in you,” she retorted.
Kathy stood up, her face red with anger. “You’re such an idiot, Alexa. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Just stay away from Nolan and me,” she Said her eyes welling up in tears.
Kathy sniffled, her eyes still red from crying. “I’m sorry for acting that way, Alexa. It’s just that I’m so obsessed with Nolan, and I can’t seem to help it.”
Alexa placed a comforting hand on Kathy’s shoulder. “It’s okay, Kathy. You don’t have to apologize. I understand how you feel, but you have to remember that you have a whole life ahead of you. Don’t waste it waiting on a man, especially one who doesn’t seem to care.”
Kathy nodded, wiping away her tears. “You’re right. I’ve been so foolish, and I’ve let my obsession get the better of me.”
“You’re not foolish, Kathy. You just need to focus on yourself and your own happiness. Once you start doing that, everything else will fall into place.”
Kathy hugged Alexa tightly. “Thank you so much for being here for me, Alexa. I don’t know what I would do without you.”
“Anytime, Kathy. I’m here for you, no matter what.”
As they hugged, Alexa couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief wash over her. It was good to see that she could make a difference in someone’s life, even if it was just by offering a shoulder to cry on.
As they parted, Kathy gave her a small smile. “I’m going to go home now. Thank you again, Alexa.”
“Take care, Kathy,” Alexa replied, watching as Kathy walked away.
With Kathy gone, Alexa was left alone with her thoughts. She couldn’t help but wonder what other secrets Nolan was keeping from her. Was he really just using her for his own gain? And what about Anthony? Did he really care about her, or was he just pretending to get what he wanted?
Alexa sighed, knowing that she wouldn’t find the answers to these questions anytime soon. All she could do was trust her instincts and hope for the best.
