Chapter 8
Catherine first showed up in our lives when Zach was in university, and he started talking about her a lot.
Catherine, Catherine…
I went to see her in secret once. She was really pretty and came from a good family. She was like a prideful swan.
Compared to me, who could not speak and could not hear clearly, she was like a precious gemstone, and I was dirt.
Later on, when Zach went hiking with her, I followed behind them in secret as well.
I saw Zach smiling at her in a relaxed fashion. It was a smile he had never shown me.
At that moment, I was really worried about losing him.
