Didn't Wanna Be Her (Completed)

Chapter-12 (Night before wedding)

Now, it is at the night before the wedding day.

I am supposed to spend my night with my soon to be husband. But...I am sitting in the huge balcony in Leos family mansion with my lingerie, missing someone else.

I know that it is not right...

Then, I heard footsteps. I turned around. It is Ella...She looks sad and lonely.

"Hi Miss Maria, I didn't expect you to be here" she awkwardly said.

"Well, shouldn't it be me who have to say that? Whya re you here, in Leos mansion?" I asked with glare.

"I was invited to spend the night here to help the wedding for tomorrow early morning by Mr.Leos...and speaking of I didn't expect you to be here is that I thought you are with young master Cameron Leos..." she looked like she meant the truth.

"Ok...I apologize for being toxic..." I said.

Ella's POV: Did Miss Maria just apologize me?! This is so rare situation! She had never been kind and always putting on pride toward everyone...

Then she coughed.

I sighed and then put on a smile and offered "Come and sit here with me, Ella."

Ella face was full of surprise.

I giggled. "I am not kidding. It seemed weird to offer you that as I have been mean to everyone but right now I need someone to accompany. And I don't have many friends like you so would you mind be here for me, at least." I looked up her with friendly smile.

"Sure sure, Miss Maria." she smiled back. She looked like a baby that is so innocent.

Ella Ann isn't so bad like Maria imagined.

"You can just call me Maria" I said. "And also can I open up to you that I have never been opened up to anyone else."

She nodded and sat beside me. I felt like I have someone that I can trust, that I can open up to her anything freely. I felt like we have been friends for a long time.

"How does it feel like to love someone?" I asked.

Ella looked sad. She looked like she felt guilty to me.

"It feels like you will be always wondering what that person would be doing. You will start to think like how would it be so good if that person will be yours..." she answered while looking at the sky.

"Like the thoughts and feelings I have for Felix...?" I asked myself in my mind.

"Ella, can I ask you one thing?" I asked. "What happened between you and Cameron?"

She was silent. Then she spoke up.

"We are...just friends." she answered shortly. She sighed.

"Sorry for asking...Anyway, thank you for being friend for me...for a while." I said as I stood up.

"Maria! Wait!... I may sound selfish but...can we be...best friends...again?" she quickly stood up and nervously said.

Again? Were Maria and Ella best friend?!! Maria became jealous and end the friendships all because of Cameron?

I don't know what to do...but...part of me, Maria's original mind...feeling like wanting to accept that. That feeling is smiley to having hallow in your heart, kinda like friendship attachment...

I smiled to her and said "Sure!" and left.

I walked through the huge hallway, but I couldn't pay attention to the surroundings as my thought is...has Felix moved to the palace? Can I see him again? I missed him...

Then I bumped with someone.
Its Cameron. But I havent fully awakened from my dee thoughts, remebring the bumps between me and Felix in the library room of dragon castle...

"Hey! Hello?! What are you thinking?! Maria!" someone is calling me.

"Oh! I am so sorry!" I looked up from where I fell.

It was Cameron. He looked worry.

"Maria, you look like you are in a deep thought...What's wrong?" he asked.

"Cameron, can we stop everything that is happening? It was my fault for this wedding...maybe we could talk to our parents?" I asked with the almost whisper voice.

He looked away.

"Maria, sometimes things are not like what you think. And it wasn't your fault for this marriage. Even you didnt do anything that night, this wedding will be still happening...It is all involved with politic." he said with sadness.

"The union of the two powerful and noble families is the sign that there will be a big situation that had planned. It would be better if you know nothing...come! Get up...let's go sleep...you can sleep on bed. I will sleep on floor." he then walked before me and I walked after him.

It is not gonna be a war! It will be a greatest reveloutionary...to...the king right now, Felix...!
