章 83: Warning on both the sides

Julie's hands turned cold, and her lips parted, but no words came out of it. She was too stunned. It was because she hadn't expected this. 

Aunt Sarah's eyes had narrowed, her face filled with shock. But the worst thing for Julie was the person who stood next to her. Julie's uncle stood there, staring at her in disappointment in his eyes, and shifted to look at Roman, the boy who was going to kiss his niece before his eyes went back to look at her. 

Both her uncle and aunt looked at Roman as if he was someone alien to them, noticing the chain around his neck and ripped jeans and the cuff rings on his ear. 

Julie released her clenched hands, deciding to speak rather than increase her nervousness of being caught. She started to walk, making her way where her relatives stood. Coming to stand in front of them, she awkwardly smiled and opened her mouth to speak.
