CHAPTER 13: MILLIE'S DECISION
That morning, all Manchester United players are training as usual as they will face West Ham United in London Stadium that weekend.
"So, it seems that you gained some allies from your women national team" said Chris as he and Aaron walked home after their training session.
"Well, yeah. They're young players too. So, they kind of amazed of what I had achieved so far and they didn't like iy of how some veterans looked down on me" replied Aaron.
"I see. By the way, when will you talk to Millie again?" asked Chris.
"Tonight maybe. Why?" asked Aaron in returned.
"For real?" asked Chris surprised.
"Yeah" replied Aaron.
"What actually happened that day you confessed to her?" asked Chris.
"Well, this is what happened" replied Chris.
Flashback to the time of confession;
"Mil, I love you. More than a friend. Will you be my girlfriend?" asked Aaron then causing Millie to shock.
"Aaron, I..... I'm sorry. Can you give me more time to think?" asked Millie in returned.
"Sure. I don't mind at all" replied Aaron.
"And let's not hang out until I made my decision. I just don't want to give you hope or something" said Millie.
"Okay, Mil. But under one condition" replied Aaron.
"What is it?" asked Millie.
"Even if you decided that you didn't want to be my girlfriend, we will still be bestfriends" replied Aaron.
"Of course we will. I better get going now" said Millie.
"Okay, Mil. Take care" replied Aaron. Millie just nodded before walked away.
"I knew this is such a bad idea" muttered Aaron alone.
End of Flashback
"So, that's why you're avoiding each other, huh" said Chris.
"Yeah" replied Aaron.
"But are you sure that you both can still be bestfriends after this?" asked Chris.
"We'll try. I rather failed to get her to be my girlfriend than lose her as my bestfriend" replied Aaron.
"I wonder what will your sister said about this" said Chris.
"Can you please not mentioning her name right now?" asked Aaron.
"Sorry, mate. But still until when will you and her being like this?" asked Chris.
"Until she apologize to me" replied Aaron.
"Then, what if she doesn't do so?" asked Chris.
"That's none of my business. Besides, I already proved that I can do well without her" replied Aaron.
"Mate, you're stubborn" said Chris.
"I don't care" replied Aaron.
"Unbelievable" said Chris.
Meanwhile;
Millie just told Tooney what happened between her and Aaron.
"So, that's what happened, huh" said Tooney.
"Yes" replied Millie.
"So, when will you meet Aaron and tell him your decision?" asked Tooney.
"Today. I'll text him the time and place later on" replied Millie.
"I hope it won't mean the end of your friendship with him, Mil" said Tooney.
"Of course not. We've promise that whatever my decision is, we will still be friends" replied Millie.
"Good to hear. He can't afford to lose you after his family kind of disowned him" said Tooney.
"Don't worry about it, mate. I won't leave him. He's a good friend. He might be annoying sometimes but that didn't change the fact that he's kind" replied Millie.
"That's true. I hope everything happened will be the best for both of you" said Tooney. Millie just nodded.
Later on;
Aaron is getting ready when he got a text from Millie that said;
Millie: Meet me at the park nearby our training ground in 15 minutes. Don't have to pick me up.
Okay, Mil. See you there
"Is that Mil?" asked Chris.
"Yes. She wants to meet me in 15 minutes" replied Aaron.
"I see. Take this" said Chris while tossed his car keys.
"You didn't need it?" asked Aaron.
"No. Just fill the gas tank, please" replied Chris.
"Here am I thinking that you such a nice guy" said Aaron.
"Be grateful a bit, will you" replied Chris.
"Fine, fine" said Aaron as he exiting their place and walked to Chris' car.
After a short drive;
Aaron parked the car nearby the park. After locked it, Aaron walked to the park where he saw Millie already there sitting to one of the bench.
"Hi, Mil. Sorry if you have to wait for long" said Aaron.
"It's okay. Can we talk while take a walk?" asked Millie.
"Of course. That's what we always did" replied Aaron. Millie smiled before get up and started to walk.
"I heard about what happened between you and your brother in-law" said Millie.
"Yeah. What a cheap guy he is. He should learnt to mind his own business" replied Aaron.
"I agreed. But still, isn't it's about time you talk with your sister again?" asked Millie.
"She still not apologise yet. So, nope" replied Aaron.
"Mate, you're stubborn" said Millie.
"I always been. But that's not why we're here, right" said Aaron then.
"That's true. Look, Aaron. I really appreciate you being honest to me. Mind if I asked what made you do so?" asked Millie.
"Chris" replied Aaron.
"What's up with him?" asked Millie.
"He issued me a challenge that if we can defeat Liverpool with at least 3 goal differences, I need to confess to you. I think it's still too early to do so but he didn't care. He said that I'm scared. That's why I accepted it" replied Aaron.
"Always up for a challenge, huh" said Millie.
"Of course. It's runs in my family" replied Aaron. Millie smirked.
"You must gathered a lot of strength to do so" said Millie.
"Of course. Just for you to know, I never confess before" replied Aaron. Millie was surprised.
"Then, how did you ever get a girlfriend?" asked Millie.
"I never had one. I just focus on football before I realised that I focused on it too much that I never knew anything about date. Until I meet you, of course. So, thank you for your time, Mil" said Aaron.
"No problem. I love spending time with you because you're such a fun guy and the one that ended with you is such a lucky person" replied Millie.
"Thanks, Mil" said Aaron.
"But, too bad" said Millie then.
"Why?" asked Aaron then.
"Because....... No girls will have a chance to end up with you now because you're mine" replied Millie. Aaron was stunned for a while.
"So, you're saying that..." Aaron can't finished his words.
"The answer of your confession is yes, I love to be your girlfriend" said Millie.
"Really?" asked Aaron still disbelief.
"Yes, idiot. Now, to prove it" said Millie before pulled Aaron into a deep kiss.
"I can't believe this. Millie Turner is my girlfriend now" said Aaron then.
"I can't believe it too" replied Millie.
"Well, what took you so long to answer me?" asked Aaron.
"I was totally overwhelmed that time because I wasn't expecting it so soon. That's why I asked for some space. I'm sorry" said Millie. Aaron then pecked a kiss on Millie's lips.
"It's okay. It's worth my time to wait. I can even scored 2 goals against Argentina and few more against Cuba" replied Aaron. Millie giggled.
"I love you, babe" said Millie.
"I love you too" replied Aaron before he and Millie started to kiss once more. Then, they continued walked around the park as a newly official dating couple.
