Chapter 43: chapter 43

Kathy....

"Kathy," Sarah wrapped me in a hug. "That's amazing. I am so happy for you. Wow, all this time I thought that the two of you were just hooking up, but you're actually in love."

"I know," I bit down on my lip. We were moving fast. "I think this is the fastest I've ever said those words to anyone… and really meant them, too."

"Wow," Sarah took a moment to soak it all in. "Are you sure, Kathy?"

"What are you talking about?" I laughed.

I felt so happy.Happier and more complete than I had ever been.

"I don't want to dampen your mood, but…" she trailed off. "You're sure he's serious about you, right?"

"Yes," I shrugged. "I mean, we said I love to each other. That's got to mean something."

"Men say anything when they are horny," Sarah said with a small eye roll. "How do you know he actually mean ?"

"He's not the sort of person who says things without meaning them," I defended him, feeling perturbed at Sarah's skepticism.
