Chapter 164 Warm

• "Thank you... I thought I wouldn't feel hurt even if she asked me to, but I had thought wrong. It broke my heart, and I miss her so much..." Juliet felt her heart break for Gina as she listened to her... "I wanted to invite her to my wedding, but she declined." Gina let out a deep breath and realised she had been dumping on Juliet even though they weren't on good terms... "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you all of that," Gina immediately apologised. Maybe it was because she didn't have any friends and Juliet didn't stop her from talking. She just needed someone else to talk to, and Juliet seemed to be there at that moment. "It's fine. Would you like to come with me?" Juliet asked, and Gina looked confused. "To where?" She asked, and Juliet stood up; Gina stood up also and walked after Juliet, her eyes filled with curiosity as they both walked in silence... her eyes were on Juliet, who hadn't said a word to her, and after ten minutes walk, they finally arrived at an old looking house. Juliet turned to look at Gina but said nothing, and then she proceeded to knock on the door... they stood there in silence for a few seconds before the door was opened. "Juliet!" Gladys said when she saw Juliet, a smile appeared on her face as she drew Juliet into a warm hug, but it was then that her eyes landed on the stunning young lady who was standing behind Juliet. Her eyes were red and swollen, and it looked like she had been crying a lot... Gladys broke the hug, her eyes travelling forth between Juliet and Gina. "Is this your friend?" Gladys asked and before Gina could say no, Juliet beat her to it. "Yes, she is. Can she come in?" Juliet said, and Gladys nodded. She walked to where Gina was standing and took her hand. "Your friend is always welcome here," Gladys said excitedly, and Gina had no choice but to follow her into the house. A smile appeared on Juliet's face as she walked into the house with them.
• Gladys led Gina to her living room and made her sit down comfortably... "What would you like to drink? I have some freshly baked muffins," Gladys said, and Gina couldn't decline because Gladys left before she could. "Why did you bring me here?" Gina asked Juliet, and Juliet smiled at her. "I don't know,"
• They both stared at each other in silence before Juliet broke it. "My grandmother is excited to see you, so just play along." Gina nodded, and a smile appeared on her face when Juliet left the room to help her grandmother in the kitchen... she came back with a glass of milk for her and Gina while her grandmother brought the muffins. "Thank you," Gina said as she collected the glass of milk from Juliet...
