Both Katherine and Robert returned back to the ballroom. They walked over to their friends.  All of them were pretty busy talking and eating. At that point, Christopher joined them as well. He was invited on the behalf of Robert.

"Hey Robs! Where were you all this while! We were having a debate on where would the two of you be!", he began to laugh. Everyone joined him in laughing. Katherine began to blush. She wanted to excuse herself from the scene but Christopher stopped her.

"Katherine!", he yelled at her.

"Yup!", she tried to smile at him.

"It's time to dance! Could we dance together?", he asked her.

Katherine looked at Robert. He gave a slight nod indicating that she could dance with his best friend.

"Oh look at this! Katherine needs to get permission from her overprotective boyfriend!", he began to laugh.

"Christopher! You've changed so much ever since the last time I met you.", Katherine was laughing as well.

"I didn't change at all Katherine. Someone changed me. Someone that is special to me changed me.", Christopher began to day dream.

"Who is that lucky girl? Oh wait! Let me guess! Is it your girlfriend, Charmaine. Who else could it be!", Katherine exclaimed.

"Maybe, maybe not. All I know is that the person that changed me is present here.", Christopher's words caught Robert's attention.

"Who would that person be? Could he be talking about her?", Robert kept thinking in his mind.

"Lover boy! Come back to Earth!", Christopher began to wave his hand vigorously.

"Oh! Why aren't we dancing? Let's go.", Robert tried to divert his mind.

A young beautiful lady came in front of Robert and asked him whether could they dance together. Robert agreed and both of the went to the dance floor. He kept looking at Katherine's direction. she seemed to be having lots of fun. Bother Christopher and Katherine were having a chat as well.

"Katherine, I think your boyfriend is getting jealous.", Christopher mumbled in Katherine's ears.

"Really? How do you know?", Katherine asked.

"That's because he kept looking at us. He seriously does love you a lot. Or maybe he's just too possessive.", Christopher began to laugh.

"You must be kidding me. Actually I will know if he's jealous. He doesn't seem jealous according to me.", Katherine shrugged her shoulders.

"As you say my lady!",'both of them began to laugh.

The party soon came to an end. Everyone began to return home as they were going to have a long day the next day.

********************************************

It was already Tuesday morning. Katherine found herself in an awkward position on the bed. She was still in her gown.

"What happen to me? Was I that tired last night that I couldn't change to my sleepwear?", she mumbled to herself.

She got out of bed and went to take a quick rinse. She then wore a white sati and chiffon short sleeved shirt with a premium full faille skirt.  She combed her hair. Once she was done, she wore a pair of black strapped ballerinas. She then picked up her black 
lapalette amber muse mesh mini bag and her books.  Once she was done she wore her black blazer.

As soon as she went down, she saw her family and friends having their breakfast. She greeted everyone in general and say for breakfast. Katherine saw Jacqueline. She was wearing a acid floral off shoulder midi dress. This made Katherine to laugh.
