….. “I think this will be a perfect time for me to know who exactly she is,” Catherine said getting ready to go meet her
While she was getting set a text came into her phone and she picked up her phone to check
“K Star hotel by the end of freedom girls hostel “ was what she read out
“K star what, I don’t understand what business do I have with a hotel we can sit in any of the cafeterias “ she muttered a bit angry
She dialed Sammy’s number immediately and it was saying number busy she was a bit agitated because she had never been to a hotel before
Soon Sammy’s call came in “Hey Xup baby girl did you get my text, “ she asked immediately Catherine picked up
“Yes I did but I think you sent the wrong address,” said Catherine
“Oh no I did not is it not ‘k Star Hotel ‘ you saw, “ Sammy asked
“Yes and I was surprised thought we were meeting at the cafeteria “ Catherine muttered out
“Nah the cafeteria is too boring, just trust me, okay you will love it here, I already made reservations for a sumptuous meal for
You “ Sammy said with a smile
“Are you sure, I was told a hotel is not safe for young girls like us. “ Catherine said sadly still contemplating if to go or not
“Woh that’s a big lie okay, just come and enjoy yourself for once besides no one is going to harm you, especially when I’m here, “ Sammy said
“Okay if you say so, I will be with you shortly, “said Catherine who quickly said a short prayer before leaving by Annie Alex
She got to the road and boarded a bike to the address. Sammy has already told the staff she was expecting someone and she should be sent to her room upstairs
When Catherine got to the gate of the hotel she was amazed at how beautiful the building was as she slowly walked in with mouth agape
“Excuse me, ma’am, you are welcome to K Star Hotel please how may I be of help to you “ the male staff said with a bow Catherine who was lost in amusement quickly adjusted herself
“Emm I’m here to see Sammy, “ she said with a shaking voice
“Alright ma’am, please this way, “the staff said leading the way to where Sammy was they got to her room and she opened it at the first knock
“Aww my baby have missed you Sammy said hugging her tightly as they went into the room
“Woh this place must be very expensive,” Catherine said when she let go of her
“Yeah it is but you don’t have to worry about that, please have your sit, “ Sammy said ushering her to feel relaxed
Soon a tray of food was brought in filled with different kinds of dishes including the ones Catherine had never seen Before and immediately her tummy started to rumble
“ looks yummy right “ Sammy asked when she saw how she stared at the food
“Yeah it is” Catherine said with a smile
“Feel free to eat to your full okay, I specifically ordered them for you, “ Sammy said as she continued typing on her phone
Catherine could not resist the table before her soon she was already serving different meals onto her plate, she actually ate to her fill
All along Sammy was just smiling at her, this is like a regular meal for her whenever one of her zaddy makes a reservation for her at the hotel
“This could have been me you know, I was really blessed the day I met Jesse she turned my life around and I just wished Catherine could trust me and let me offer some help to her and transform her, “ Sammy said with a smirk
“Do you need anything else,” Sammy asked
“ no oh, I can’t even breath like this, “ Catherine said breathing heavily, “but, en can they pack the rest food for me so I can take it to my hostel” she said feeling shy
“ why not” Sammy said picking up the landline to place a call to the kitchen and immediately someone came to her room to attend to her
“Thank you so much, I don’t think I have ever had such a meal before, “ Catherine said thanking her friend
“It’s okay, but hope you remember the party is this weekend and I will not take a no for an answer, “Sammy said faking a frown
“Oh I forgot but I will try, “Catherine said smiling sheepishly
“You better do, don’t stress yourself about what to wear I will get it sorted out just make yourself available, “ said Sammy smiling this time around
“Alright boss lady, “ Catherine said jokingly
They chatted some more and when it was getting late Catherine left with the packs of food forgetting she had some serious questions to ask her friend but she was just carried away
She got to the hostel and her roommate was back already Catherine greeted her but it was obvious she was still not ready to make peace with her so she let her be and headed to bed after having her bath
Very early in the morning her phone began ringing continuously to the extent she had to wake up to pick up the call “Good Morning mama” she greeted yawning endlessly
“Good morning my child, I’m sorry for waking you up but I just needed to talk to you, “ her mother said
“Hope all is well Mom, “ Catherine said sitting up
“All is well but I had a terrible dream about you, please my child I know we cannot offer all of your needs right now but please be content with the little you have and don’t be carried away, please cut ties with any friend that is not upright, “ her mother said almost sobbing
“What did you dream, please tell me cause you’re scaring me already, “ Catherine said feeling frightened
