Mystery Bride's Revenge (Selina)

Chapter 5

After teaming up with her fake husband, Selina found herself standing outside the city hall, feeling a little lost. Pulling out her phone, she scrolled through her contacts. With a hesitant bite of her lip, she tapped on a number.

The other line picked up quickly, and there was a warm, raspy voice laced with a hint of mischief. "Selina, what's going down? Missing me!"

"Lydia." Just hearing that voice made Selina's voice thick with emotion, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Whoa, what's up! Selina, you sound like you're about to cry. Did the Harvey family mess with you? I swear, they've got another thing coming!"

"No, Lyddia.... L.. I just really need to see you. Where are you!" said Selina

"Chill, Selina. I'm over in Sokovis. Hang tight-1 shoot you the address."

Selina made a beeline for a posh apartment in downtown Sokovis and almost crashed into a striking figure wearing Pikachu pajamas. "Selina!" They hugged each other hard.

"Lydia." It was the kind of hug that felt like home. Not a daydream. Selina couldn't keep her tears back any longer.
