Nothing personal but it was all for Mila. Ever since he decided to date Mila, he had to think about her for every decision he made.
But Elena started crying on the other end of the phone.
“Okay…Gerald. I understand what you mean, how can I make you do so much for me right? It’s just my aunt has told my relatives about you and they all really want to meet you! It’s okay, I’ll just tell them you’re not my boyfriend and I don’t deserve to be your girlfriend…I shouldn’t trouble you either!” Elena said as she sobbed.
Gerald did not know what to do. He could never stand a girl crying in front of him especially when it was because of him.
Gerald sighed and said, “Please stop crying. I’ll do it. Send me a location and I’ll go meet you!”
“You’re the best, Gerald! I love you so much!” Elena immediately stopped crying.
Gerald only promised Elena to put an end to the story. Since he was the one that helped her from the start, he should take the responsibility to end things with her!
Gerald changed and he decided to call a taxi to meet with Elena because it was quite late and there were going to be many people. He met up with Elena first and arranged a car from Elena’s family to pick up her relatives at the Mayberry Airport.
Meanwhile at the airport, there were eight to nine people waiting for them. Some were middle-aged and some were young and pretty.
“What is going on, Aunt Larson? Didn’t you tell Elena we will be arriving at nine thirty, it has been an hour! Why isn’t she here yet?”
“Be patient, Carmen. Maybe Elena was busy. I called them just now. They should be reaching soon. Don’t worry!”
“It was so different from the last time we were here. There must be many new attractions around! Anyways, didn’t you say Elena brought her boyfriend to pay you a visit the last time, Ruby? How was the boy? I don’t understand what you mean when you say he’s not decent enough through the phone!” A lady that looked like Ruby Larson asked.
