Lock You In My Heart

Mia and Gabrielle were still together. Mia smiled from ear to ear when she thought about Gabrielle and her brother being together. She would do everything within her power to make sure that they became closer. What gladdened her heart the more was when she heard her praise her brother. She was overjoyed beyond words.

"I'm so happy that there is a possibility of my brother being with you. Do you think that my brother is a good man? Would you like to be my sister-in-law? Besides, it would be a nice thing for you to promise that you'll marry Micheal to thank him for saving your life," Mia said with so much excitement written all over her. She was so happy that she even swayed her body from side to side as she spoke.

"Mia, I'm sorry, but what I'm about to say will surely discourage you. Your brother and I can only be friends. There can't be anything more than that between us, '' she said as she looked at her seriously.

Mia's face froze and she looked at her completely confused. She wondered what was wrong. "Why, Gabrielle? Is there anything wrong with my brother? Did he do anything that you didn't like? Talk to me; let me know," she asked her with so much anxiety in her voice.

"No, he didn't do anything wrong. It's just that Mr. Robinson is a very good man. I don't think I deserve him." She shook her head as she said this.

"Why? I think you are a good girl. You are beautiful and kind at heart. It is rare to meet such a girl like you these days. My brother needs a girlfriend like you in his life." Mia looked at her pleadingly.

All this while, she had thought that Micheal and Gabrielle would be together.

It was surprising to hear that Micheal, who had always been aloof and celibate, would have some sort of interest in Gabrielle. She was in support because she knew that his object of attraction was a very nice person. She thought there was still an opportunity for them to improve their relationship.

But right now, her plans had failed woefully

She felt so downcast that she had to put her head down for some seconds.
