Semua Bab Unspoken Vows: Bab 71 - Bab 80

“Millie, ready to go?” Kris asked, as soon as they reached the airport. It was the day of her flight back to New York and she couldn’t help but feel sad that she’s about to leave her friends again.She nodded, as she followed her brother entering inside. She heaved a sigh. Chandler has been accepted as an exchange student in UCLA, where Kris was also enrolled. They wouldn’t be seeing each other for at least one semester, but Chandler promised her to visit her in New York once in a while.“Millie?” She heard Kris calling her again, interrupting her thoughts. “You alright?”She nodded again. They were about to head inside already when suddenly she heard someone calling her from a distance. “Hey, Millie!” When she turned around, she saw her friends jogging towards them.“Guys! Uh… what are you doing here?” She asked them.“We were caught in traffic. We’re glad we still saw you,” Brandon said.She was about to answer them, but Nix already pulled her in a hug. “Millie! I can’t believe you’

“Kace, there are lots of things that you still don’t know. But don’t worry, we’ll tell everything at the right time,” Mykel answered her previous query.“Don’t think about it too much now, Kace. It won’t do you any good,” Luke said, holding her back.“Come on guys. We’re supposed to have fun tonight, right?” Mykel said, trying to break the gloomy atmosphere. He scanned Millie’s shelves hoping to find something interesting, but only books were there. “This is so boring. Who wants to watch a movie?”When no one answered, Mykel started to play a movie using Millie’s laptop, but all Millie could think about were the revelations she just heard. She just really couldn’t believe that Chandler even lied to her. Why would he do that?“Kace,” Luke whispered beside her to catch her attention. He knew too well that she was deep in thought.Millie lifted her chin up to face Luke. “Does it mean that the letter…” She paused. “… the one which came with the rabbit were from you? You wrote that letter?

KRIS has been following Chandler that day in secret to see any suspicious movement from him. His fake mustache has been irritating his philtrum for minutes now, but he had to endure. He hated the fact that the one person he thought he could trust was actually the reason why his sister was being threatened.As Chandler entered a clothing shop, he quickly followed him inside pretending to be picking out a suit on one aisle. His dark shades was hindering him from seeing clearly, but he shouldn’t take it off or else Chandler might recognize him. While scanning, someone suddenly bumped into him from behind. “Oh, sorry.” He heard a girl’s voice apologizing to him.He turned around and was stunned to see a familiar person infront of him. What’s she doing here? He thought. “It’s alright, miss.”The girl was about to walk away, but then, she paused, leaning closer to his face and staring at him behind his shades. “Have we met before?” She asked him with an arched brow.“Uh… no. I’ll go ahead.”

MYKEL has been convincing Luke to go home already later that afternoon, but the latter just wouldn’t hear him out. The result of the try-outs was already released and he didn’t make it into the team so he was really devastated. The fact that Millie didn’t show up added up to his frustration even more.“Come on, man. Depressing yourself like this won’t do any good.” Mykel told him off. “It’s pouring hard already. We need to go home.”Luke was already drenched under the rain, but he kept on kicking the ball in the field, ignoring his friend’s plead. “Just go home first. I’ll stay here for a while.”“But Luke…” Mykel tried to insist once again.“I said just go!” Luke yelled, causing Mykel to just walk away from him.The latter decided to go to Millie’s apartment to check on her. There must be a reason why she didn’t show up, he thought. When he reached there, Aunt Lucinda greeted him at the front door. “Auntie, is Kace there?”“Uh… yes. Why?”“Can I see her?”Aunt Lucinda nodded and led

Millie took a deep breath, before stepping inside their apartment. She knew Chandler was waiting for her inside. She tried to calm herself down and prevent herself from slapping or cursing him. She had to endure being with him, until Luke or Kris told her to do so ‘cause right at that moment, she had no idea how she could stop the wedding.As soon as she reached inside, a smiling Chandler greeted her with a hug. “Millie, I’ve missed you so much.”“M-Me too, Chandler.” She cringed inside, after saying that.Chandler must’ve noticed something strange about her so he asked, “What’s wrong, Millie?”She faked a smile, shaking her head. “Nothing. I just… really missed you.”He patted her head. “We’re going back to Florida tomorrow to prepare for the wedding. Mom and Dad are thrilled about it. Aren’t you?”But she wasn’t thrilled at all. She was scared of what might happen to the people around her. If she’d just continue the wedding, then no one’s life would be put in danger. She just had to
