Take my Hand | MIKHAIAH

CHAPTER 50 - Forever Starts Here

"She's going to kill me!"

"No, she won't. Relax, Mikhs." Colet started the car, waiting for all of them to fit in.

"Are you crazy?! I'm going to be late to my own wedding!"

Gwen shoved her friend inside the vehicle without guilt, Mikha was talking too much and she's wasting time while at it.

"Mikhs, I need you to sit still. I'll do the make up but you need to shut up." Maloi stated firmly. She grabbed Mikha's face and began to do the foundation.

"I'm going to kill you all if she leaves me at the altar!" she yelled. "I told you I don't want a bachelor's part– Umph!"

"Shut up." Maloi said. "Colet, drive as fast as you can." she ordered.

"What's your name again?" Jhoanna turned her head to the second seat.

"Maloi." Gwen answered.

"I didn't ask you." Jhoanna glared at her.

"Jho, this is totally not the right time to flirt." Mikha murmured.

Jhoanna rolled her eyes. She wasn't even flirting with anyone. She was just simply being friendly to the newcomer. It was nice of her to wake them up. If it wasn't for her, they'd still be sleeping from playing too much last night and Aiah would definitely leave Mikha at the altar.

Aiah had been checking her phone countless times. The ceremony was going to start within minutes and she had no news for Mikha's being.

The door opened and Grace walked in.

"Any words from Maloi?"

"They're on their way. Mikha's out of battery, she can't contact you."

"She can use the others' phones!" Aiah shouted desperately.

"You're forbidden to call her, remember?" Grace sat beside the bride. "Calm down, ate Aiah. She'll be here on time."

"I can't believe she's going to be late at her own wedding!" she groaned. "I should've reconsidered her proposal." she nagged furiously.

"Hey, come on! Don't say that." Grace soothed her best friend. "She'll be here, okay?"

Aiah breathed out deeply and looked away.

"Ate Aiah, you have to be sure you're not going to regret this." Grace spoke softly. The lack of certainty in Aiah's eyes was too plain to see. "It's once in forever."

"I love her, Nissin. I'm all for forever with her. I'm used to her cancelled promises but today is a special day. Why can't she make an exception?"

"I don't know what happened, my bet is they drank too much, who knows?"

Aiah shook her head. "Mikha rarely drinks anymore, and I don't think she's that stupid to let one night of a bachelor's party destroy her wedding day."

Beep.

Grace unlocked her phone as she read the text from Maloi. She smiled a bit then stood up.

"It's time, ate Aiah. Mikha's here. Remove that frown from your pretty face." she held out her arm and waited for Aiah to take it.

When they held hands, Grace squeezed it a bit. She grinned widely and pulled Aiah into a tight hug.
