★ SILENT GOOD-BYE ★
IN A HOSPITAL***
Even though she was alone in the room, Ariel couldn’t stop the tears from spilling out of her eyes. Her hand went to her face and wiped her tears but instead, more fell freely from her eyes.
Her parents already escorted the reporters outside and she was left alone in the room.
Gently, she removed the quilt from her body and got to her feet. Her legs found their way to the window and another round of fresh tears began.
The door to the room was opened but she didn’t even bother to glance at the person who entered. Her mind was totally preoccupied, not until…
“Ariel??..” she choked on her tears immediately she heard the voice.
In a slow motion, she turned and a rage suddenly boiled inside her when her eyes dawned on Tony.
“You bastard!” She yelled and rushed to him with the aim of hitting him. But, Tony caught her hand and pulled her to a sudden hug, holding her body tight to himself.
“I’m sorry. I never meant to release you to the world, I’m sorry,” he begged.
Ariel struggled out of his hold and when she successfully did that, her hand found its way to his cheek, striking him hard right there.
“Sorry? Will it bring down the damages you’ve done? Will sorry clear all this? For Pete’s sake, my name is ruined! My Dad’s, My Mom’s!!!” Ariel screamed in tears.
“I get that I sleep around with men but does that justify you exposing me to the whole world? Is that an enough excuse??” She yelled.
“Get out! I don’t want to see you ever again! Get out!” She screamed
To her surprise, Tony went on his knees, bowing his head in deep regret.
“I know I’ve done a very bad thing, but I’m sorry. I already cleared the news, I’m sorry,” he pleaded.
Right at that Moment, Mr. County and his wife entered the room with a big smile on his face. Their faces wrinkled in confusion when they saw Tony on his knees.
“Who’s he?” Mrs. County asked while staring at Tony.
Ariel didn’t say anything as she turned her back to them, she didn’t even know how to face them at that moment.
“The news has been cleared out” Mr. County suddenly said and Ariel spun towards them immediately.
“What?”
“Here,” Mrs. County handed her phone to Ariel.
With shaking hands, Ariel collected the phone from her and tears filled her eyes when she watched the video of an Anonymous guy clearing her name.
★ Yes, let’s all agree that Ariel County is a slut, but isn’t that her life to live? She’s a woman and she clearly has the say of her life. Let’s put ourselves in her shoes please, we shouldn’t be doing this. Rather, we should be trying her best to ensure that she wouldn’t be traumatized forever. Ariel, no matter where you are, just listen to this. You’re not a disgrace, you’re a strong woman, a very strong woman. And this is just a storm that’ll pass away soon. Much love from here ★
Ariel was a crying mess already by the time she was done watching the video. Her eyes went to Tony whose face was still buried on the ground, she needed no one to tell her that voice belongs to Tony’s.
“It’s okay, baby. You’ll be fine. I understand you were wrong but we can never stop loving you, you’ll always be our daughter,” Mrs. County said.
Slowly, she walked towards her and pulled Ariel to a motherly hug, patting her back slowly. Mr. County joined in the hug and Ariel continued crying in their arms.
“I’m sorry, daughter,” Mr. County apologized.

MELANIE’S APARTMENT***
“I feel for her, I mean I can’t even imagine myself being in her shoes,” Paisley said after Melanie was done narrating the whole story of Ariel to them.
“Same here. She doesn’t deserve it, she’s a lady like me after all,” Melanie mumbled.
“And Axel… Won’t he see his parents before he leaves? I mean, it’s for three years,” Lauren said.
“He’s so strong headed, he wouldn’t even listen to me,” Melanie sighed.
“And you? Are you okay? He’ll be leaving tomorrow,” Paisley asked gently.
“I’ll be fine” Melanie smiled and touched the necklace on her neck gently.
“Our love will surely scale through these difficulties,” she muttered.
“I would have felt oppressed if I’m single right now, but no… I can’t anymore, I’ve got my own babe,” Lauren winked.
The girls laughed and all of a sudden, they phone beeped at once
They exchanged glances before picking it, clicking on the message box. It was a message from Julie.
★ I’M SORRY THINGS HAD TO END UP THIS WAY, GUYS. YES, I WOULD ADMIT, I LOVE AXEL, I’VE ALWAYS DID RIGHT FROM THE TIME I SET MY EYES ON HIM. HE WAS MY DREAM MAN, AND I FELT JEALOUS WHEN I l FOUND OUT MELANIE WAS DATING HIM… I’M SORRY FOR BEING A REBELLIOUS FRIEND, I REALLY HOPE YOU DO FORGIVE ME. AND BY THE TIME YOU’RE DONE READING THIS MESSAGE, I’D BE FAR AWAY BECAUSE MY FAMILY DECIDED TO RELOCATE TO KOREA. BEING FRIENDS WITH Y’ALL WAS THE GREATEST THING EVER, I’M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING… YOURS SINCERELY, JULIE ★
After they were all done reading the message, the girls had a solemn look on their face.
“I really can’t believe this,” Lauren mumbled sadly.
Melanie only sighed. A lot has been happening lately and it’s taking a toll on her greatly.

“If you ever hurt Melanie, I’ll be the one to roast you alive,” Aaron threatened to Axel.
“He wouldn’t dare, he loves her too much to do that,” Ace said.
“I can never forget her, just help me in taking care of her, guys. I don’t want her to be too sad,” Axel said.
“You’ve got out back, buddy. We’ll surely take care of her, just focus on your career there,” Aiden said.
Axel nodded and rubbed his face with an exhausted sigh.
“Have you called your parents? Especially your Mom, she needs to be aware of this,” Ace said.
“I’ll just send a message to her, and that’ll be when I’ve gone. They need to reflect on their mistakes,” Axel muttered.
Ace suddenly laughed and they glanced at him.
“Why? I’m just laughing at the fact that Axel has suddenly grown into a man overnight. The old Axel Füçks around and spends his parents money lavishly. But now, he’s changed and all credit to….”
“Melanie!” The guys chorused and they all smiled happily.
“We’ll surely be there to see you off, buddy. Even if it’s very early,” Aiden smiled.
“Thank you guys, I’m really blessed to have y’all as a friend,” Axel said.
Melanie, Paisley and Lauren came out of the room and each girl sat beside their boyfriend leaving Aiden all alone.
“Now, you guys are tryna make me feel oppressed, huh? That ain’t gonna work,” Aiden smirked.
“You too, get a girlfriend dude. Single life is so boring,” Aaron said and looked at Lauren.
“Oh, really? Look at who’s speaking,” Aiden rolled his eyes.
Axel glanced at Melanie who was busy caressing the necklace on her neck absentmindedly.
“You okay?” He mouthed.
Melanie glanced at him and responded by kissing him on the lips.
“More than okay,” she grinned after pulling away.
Aiden cleared his throat and stood up and they all laughed.
“Let the party begin!” He shouted.
