120 A Body Of Flesh And Blood

"Milleia, what happened?" I asked but I could guess what was the content of the call. 

Milleia turned her gaze at me. Tears were brimming in her beautiful pink eyes. "I-I…!" 

She was hesitating to tell me what was going on.

"Milleia." I called out to her again but she still didn't reply so I took a step forward to approach her-

"I-It's nothing! I just need to go somewhere…."Milleia finally spoke and plastered a fake smile on her face. "Say sorry to Jayden from me, I-I don't think I will be able to cheer him up!"

"..." I stared at her for a few seconds before shrugging my shoulders. "Okay, don't take your time. The exams are soon there."

"Y-Yes! Thanks…t-thanks Edward…" Before tears could fall, Milleia turned around and left in a hurry. She was probably going back to her village to see her mother's condition.
