“We talked a little about you. She worries.”
“She’s a mother, of course she worries. I have a very clear path to follow in the famiglia, and Mom is not crazy about that. I guess she would have preferred me to walk out and do something else.”
“I guess that’s right, but she also wants you to be happy.” She paused, looked at me, then looked away. “She wants you to find someone, a good girl to share everything with you. Someone to have your back like she has your dad’s I think.”
What the hell was going on? Did Mom put her up to this?
“All in good time.” I tried not to get too deep into this conversation, but Katja wasn’t willing to let it go.
“I don’t know, maybe someone who would even give you information on her own father just to help you because she wants to see you succeed. Because she cares about you.”
Oh, fuck me, man. What was she doing? I didn’t like where this was heading or the way she looked up at me, with hopeful, wide eyes, waiting for me to make a move that I never intended to make. I had the troubling thought that Katja was full of shit when she told me the other night was a show for her father. I was well aware of the effect I had on women, but with Katja, I was very careful to not give her any ideas. I didn’t want to tell her point blank that she didn’t make me feel anything. A month ago? Maybe I would have been interested to see what she hides under the tight dress she had on and fuck her full tits, but now my mind was too busy picturing Ludmila in every position in Kama Sutra.
“Katja…” But she cut me off.
One minute we were just walking side by side, and the next one she was in front of me, up on her tiptoes, pulling my mouth to her. She was very determined and her tongue was inquisitive in my mouth. Katja held me tight and her moves carried intensity and sensuality, but the kiss was sterile. I felt nothing touching her except a slight annoyance because she tried to play me like we were in high school. When my temper won over manners, I grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her away a few steps.
“Katja, what the fuck?”
“I…”
“You what? You bullshit me about how you were only trying to jump me just so Alexei would leave you alone, and then you try to pull this shit?”
“I just thought…because we got so close...”
“I was trying to be your fucking friend, Katja. We talked about this, and I told you I’m not interested, but you’re pushing me to be a jerk and tell you to your face I’m not interested in you.”
Her face fell, but I couldn’t bring myself to feel sorry for her.
“Yes, I remember what we talked about, but I just thought…you know, I thought you liked me. We spend a lot of time together, and you’re always very attentive.”
“Fuck, no!”
She flinched and looked away embarrassed which was enough to make me feel like shit. I said I’d never be a jerk to this girl because she was raised by one.
“I’m sorry, Enzo. I just…it’s hard not to think about more with you. I should have known better.”
“Hey, I’m sorry I was an ass, ok? I didn’t want to sound like that. Katja, I like you, but not…” Fuck, this was hard. “I’m not available.” It was true. I was completely under the spell of a blond witch, with eyes blue like the Arctic waters. She held me tight in her grip, and there was no sign she’d ever let me go.
“Oh!” her mouth opened. “There’s someone else?”
“Yes, Katja. There’s someone else.”
“I don’t stand a chance, do I?”
“No. I’m sorry, but no. She’s just…no.”
“Wow, you’re really smitten with this woman. One no was enough, you know?” Was it? Because I doubted she could understand the obsession I had with Ludmila. She was running through my veins along with my blood, and no woman could exorcise her. “Maybe I should just take a cab home.”
“Don’t be silly. I’ll drop you off, come on.”
“Won’t your girlfriend be jealous?”
I opened the car and shook my head.
“Katja, just get in the car.”
I got about five minutes of quiet driving before she started talking again.
