Captain, ah, Meda, Mirel…hmm….will you marry me?, Captain Slash said while kneeling in front of the woman who is astonished as the by standers and on lookers of VOF bout televised on a huge holoscreen at Sky Bridge where clouds are seen moving slowly. The sky is about to turn dark an Slash and Mirel have been dating for six months months now from the time he asked her out on a date at the school's cafeteria lounge.
Ye..yesss!, Yes, hahaha!, Mirel replied happily. Slash, overjoyed, hugged her girlfriend who is now his fiancée, placed the diamond ring on her finger and kissed together on the lips. Lance, Jax and Lloyd are watching the happy couple not far from the bridge and moved in to congratulate them after Slash's proposal.
I had an all-time crush on MIrel ever since we were trainees for flighter course five years ago. But Slash is Mirel's secret crush (since she disclosed it to me because we are best friends in one team) ever since he transferred from Saturn to Earth as exchange student three years ago. The time when Slash came back from Andromeda Project, ACOM tour, DOGS trainees were in need of a supervisor that was led by team leader Miles. Slash was chosen instead of me, to lead and support them to Carpathia Cruise, Warzone. I was adviced to stay since I was needed to fight alongside Jax and Menace to protect Majarlica, DG-One and so on. I never had any complains nor regrets loving Mirel because I love Slash too. He is my dearest half-brother and I can live without a girlfriend but not without my beloved bro who measn the world to me, Lloyd thought while running to congratulate the couple. He kissed Mirel on the cheek and shook Slash's hand, 'Welcome to the family, sis!. Congratulations brother!'
Jax and Menace looked strangely at each other, but smiled after congratulating both MIrel and Slash on their engagement. It's so sudden but marriage is indeed unplanned just like loving someone wholeheartedly in secret. It's really a dead end for me, my love for Mirel which has already sank deeper to the ocean, the abyss of my heart, forever. I have never felt like this before, the sadness is immeasurable, like someone died. Maybe somebody did die, me!. I died with the love I have for the only girl I always wished to see me not just a friend but more, those five years of my life. My body feeling numb all over is an understatement.
Beers are pouring when Slash invited us to celebrate with them at our usual place to hang out at Chill Bar. MIrel is letting Jax see her ring that Slash gave her while Lloyd is singing his heart out with 'Hello' on the karaoke with the words moving on a holo screen which can move from anywhere as long as one places the mic on his or her lips. The virtual karaoke can give a singer up to 5000 songs from old or new genres. Wow!, the girls said while Lloyd had a staggering 90 score after singing.
