Chapter 028

"Tine seriously invited you? Oh, my God! Vienna, confirm," Michelle said in disbelief. I then regretted why I even told them about that thing. We just finished our class this afternoon, so there they are, making noise. "Why he hasn't admitted that he likes you? Tine is too slow," Michelle added. It's just because he invited me on a date, does that mean, Tine likes me? "When he admits Vienna, tell us right away huh? This time it looks like you will have a boyfriend. Vienna it's a sign," Therese said while giggling. But they suddenly fell silent when we reached the parking lot because of two guys looking at me. Britt and Enzo, who I think have been waiting for a while. "Vienna, can we talk to you?" Britt asked as soon as we got in Enzo's direction. "I thought you would ignore Vienna forever," Michelle replied irritably. "Can we talk to Vienna for a moment?" Enzo asked calmly and Michelle looked at me. "You go home first, I still have to go to the shop," I said. "All right Vienna, be careful okay? We'll go first." They both left after saying goodbye to me. But what are we going to talk about? "Vienna, we just want to apologize," Enzo said seriously. "What for?" I asked. 'We didn't mean to ignore you the other day," Britt replied. I was slightly laughed--there were reasons for that. "It's fine don't worry, I'm not that bad for not forgiving you. I need to go, I have to go somewhere." I was about to leave but I've been caught by Britt's arm. "We would have told you something but-.." "Vienna.." Britt stopped because of the sudden arrival of my brother. He looked at the two and there seemed to be a growing tension between the three of them. "Brother.." Then they just averted their eyes when I spoke. "Do you need anything?" I asked. "Let's go," he said seriously. He did not answer my question but grabbed me by the arm and dragged me to my car. What's happening? BRITT'S POV ---- FLASHBACK ---- We plan to talk to Vince, Vienna's brother. We don't want to take it longer, we need to know everything and he only can tell us. We are here on the field, Vince has soccer practice today and we found out about it from his fans. We arrived just right, and he is currently sitting on a bench. "Vince Malvar," I said his name and he turned in our direction. "Can we talk to you?" Enzo asked. "You're part of Sebastian's team, aren't you?" Enzo and I only nodded. "You know us, don't you?" I asked. "Yes I know you, we beat you in the match, right?" He's already annoying. "Besides, we've met you before," Enzo replied. "I don't know what you want to imply but I don't remember ever meeting you before. Why? What do you need?" he innocently asked. I want to punch him but I stop myself from doing that. This one is in denial, doesn't he remember anything? "Why don't you just admit it? You still have a lot of talks," Enzo said angrily. "Are you the one who has the urge to get angry? Wow! You people of Political Science are surprising." Enzo was about to start a fight but fortunately, I was able to hold him by the arm. "Who are you?! And what do you need from me?!" Vince shouted angrily. "We're just your sister's friend," I replied to his surprise. "We've known you for a long time and we already know what happened in Vienna 3 years ago. Why did you take her from us? Are we at fault?! Why did you hide Vienna from us?!" I shouted angrily. There were a lot of people looking at us but I just ignored it. "You know the answer Vince so tell us before we confess to your sister," I added. He immediately grasp my collars and glared at me. But suddenly his friends came to take him away. From his reaction, it was obvious that he knew something. "First of all, I can't remember the day I met you. Second, you don't know the whole story so just shut up. Third, by the time it gets to Vienna, you won't like what I'm going to do. Let go of my sister and don't bother her anymore. Her life is fine so don't ruin it any more." ---- END OF FLASHBACK ---- We can't agree to what he wants, we have the right to tell Vienna the truth. Vince is hiding something but he doesn't want to tell us, especially his sister. We will find a way for us to know everything. VIENNA'S POV Because my brother dragged me, we went straight home. He didn't even explain and he didn't even mention anything to me. I just finished taking a half bath and had an early dinner. I want to rest and I have to wake up early tomorrow. I opened my phone when I sat on the bed and again, I received a text from this unknown person. "I'm sorry" Why is he apologizing? I don't understand. I gasped in shock when he answered my call. "Hello, please answer my question. Who are you? Just tell me, please. Why you're sorry? Did you do something? What is it? Please, I just want to know," I begged but he didn't answer. I was able to hold on to my senses but after a minute, I heard a strum of a guitar. I just listened to it carefully. Until I realize, it was my favorite song of mine. But the call has ended and then, my tears fell out of nowhere. ---THE NEXT DAY--- I'm on my way to university, I woke up a little late because of what happened last night. I have no idea if it's a woman or a man, but I sense that it's a guy. And I want to know who he is, as soon as possible. After 25 minutes, I arrived at the university. I'm going now to the Music Club while carrying my guitar. It didn't take long and I arrived at the club. I thought I was late, it's a good thing that it hasn't started yet. When I went inside there was food ready on the table and there were balloons glued to all the corners of the room. What's up now?
