A/N: HAPPY READING GUYS! 


INSTEAD of turning her head to look at him, she quickened her steps instead. She was almost at door of the antique shop when he caught up to her and then she felt him stop her by the hand.

"Are you avoiding me?" Kellan asked with a slightly irritated tone. She cocked up her eye brow at him.

"No. Why would I do that?" She asked matter-of-factly.

"Really? Then why were you pretending as if you didn't hear me just now?"

"Well, I didn't hear you. Why are you following me anyway?" instead of answering her question, he intertwined their fingers together.

"I didn't know that you're kinda deaf, chérie" He teased and then winked playfully at her. She rolled her eyes.

"I'm not deaf and would you please leave me alone? I don't want your company" she said and tried to pull her hand from his but he didn't let her. Instead, he tightened his grip on her hand. He even led the way and entered the shop first while pulling her by the hand. She sighed in resignation and just went on with the flow.

Well, she couldn't do anything to stop him from following her anyway. If she's stubborn, Kellan is way more stubborn than her. She also knew that he would just pester her more if she tried to avoid him. So she chose to just zip her mouth.

When they entered inside the antique shop, she couldn't help but to get mesmerized with the items that were on display. Very interesting things were in front of her so she must take a souvenir out of it.

There was no one inside aside from her and Kellan and the owner of the shop. When the owner approached them, Gaelle asked for her permission if she could take pictures of the goods inside. The lady gladly said yes.

"Let go of my hand"

"Why do you need to take pictures of these things anyway? I'm here. You can always take pictures of me no matter how many shots you want. I'm macho and handsome so you'll have a blast for sure" she sneered at him because of how conceited he was being but didn't comment and just began taking pictures of all the items that caught her attention.

After how a couple of minutes, a pair of beautiful necklace caught her interest. The two necklaces were inside a transparent vault box.

The pendants of the two necklaces were kinda unique. One of them has a heart shaped pendant which has a hole at the center while the other one has an arrow-shaped pendant. It looked like the arrow-shaped pendant would fit inside the hole of the heart shaped pendant and it would locked together if you put it together like that.

"What do you want, sir, ma'am?" the woman asked when she noticed that Gaelle was staring at the transparent vault.

"Is this a couple necklace?" she asked the lady while pointing at the couple necklace inside the vault.

"Yes, ma'am. My father said that these necklaces used to be the symbols of the intense love of their owners for each other and whoever wears these that are truly in love with each other, they will surely be together forever" the lady said.

"How much?" Kellan asked who seemed to be interested to the necklaces now.

"Sorry but we're not selling these necklaces" his eyebrows furrowed.

"Why are you displaying it if it's not for sale then?"

"If you noticed it, this couple necklace is separated from the other items in the shop. We put them inside this transparent vault just for display purposes only because my father doesn't want to sell them"
