Fragment: Bullet in the Heart

“If you keep being like that, no one will love you, Kath.” It was her past boyfriend’s words to Kathrina before he left her for good. He was cheating on her, but she got the blame for everything just because she could not give him the thing he yearned for the most. Yeah, right, sex. Kathrina Reed had not been able to let someone touch her most private part of herself. She was terrified that someone had tried it. It brought terror into her body and forced her to freeze like a survival instinct. With her failed past relationship, Kathrina stopped dreaming of falling in love. She was tired of getting disappointed with her partner and herself, and she was tired of visiting a psychiatrist’s office just to get better. It was better to be alone. Fewer expectations result in less hurt. Kathrina was fine being alone for a long time until she met Arthur Ford. The man set her heart and body ablaze. Then before she knew it, she started thinking about him, longed for him, and fell too deep into him. - Synopsis change, but no change made in the story.

"Open the damn door, Kathrina!" 

"Arthur," Kathrina called weakly. She had not expected him to come to her, not after her deliberately avoiding all his call and texts. She thought Arthur might think she was too busy to care about him. And that was what she had expected to happen. 

Unlike her wishful thinking, Arthur stood rigidly in front of her front door. Arthur's state was a bit messy; his hair was tousled, unlike the usual slicked back, the top button of his shirt was opened, exposing his hard chest, and his suit was hanging on his left arm. 

"What are you doing here?" She asked, her tone harsher than she intended it to be. 

Arthur clenched his jaw, and his brows furrowed; it was crystal clear to Kathrina that her question successfully ticked the boom.
