Lock You In My Heart

Chapter 68 It‘s A Long Story

The room was too suffocating to breathe in so she went out alone to get some fresh ale. Gabrielle didn’t want to bother her friends for some last minute reunion. Instead, she drove out aimlessly on the road, following no path in mind. She just needed some space.

If only her best friend, Sloane, was her normal and healthy self, Gabrielle would definitely pick her up from any corner of the city and have a girl’s night out. She could have taken her out to have a barbecue and some drinks in the nearest hotspot in town. That would have definitely brightened up Gabrielle’s mood. Just imagining it made her grin mischievously.

Nothing she could do with Sloane still in a coma, lying in a hospital bed. Even if she was unable to go out for a drink, the urge to confide in someone was burning her throat as if she drank some cleaning detergent. Going to Austin was the first thing she could think of but realization hit her.

The thought of Westley’s cold face towards Austin made a chill rise from the bottom of her heart. “Forget it!’ She didn’t want to call anyone tonight. “I’ll just drive around by myself, I’m sure I’ll feel better somehow.’ She shook her head thinking of all the bad things

She drove alone around the block to dispel her gloomy mood. Later on, she heard her stomach giowling as she recalled that she hadn’t eaten anything she thought, ‘l belter eat something or I will be in big trouble.’

She made her way to the nearest restaurant an al fresco surrounded by bright-colored flowers and a lingering aroma. The ambience gave her peace and comfort, like a friend by her side. Soon after, the sun was going down, and colorful lights lit up the dark sky. A great place where couples, or good friends, could have a candle-lit dinner or a simple chat.

‘I would definitely bring Sloane here one day. She would love such a romantic place!’ By the corner across a beautiful scenery, she sat down and ordered some food just to fill her empty belly. While waiting the beauty encapsulated her in a wonderland, like her worries were all gone.

“Pretty girl, mind if I take the seat? A chuckling voice, meant to tease, came from above. The voice was familiar, “Could it be?” Gabrielle slowly raised her head, avoiding the broken expectation, to see Mia smiling in front of her

“It’s really you, Gabrielle! I thought my mind was playing tricks on me. “But… why are you wearing a hat now, in the middle of the night?

Ignoring the fact that Gahnelle hadn’t invited her to join, Mia gracefully sat down in front of Gabrielle.
