章 182: Goodbye, for now

The night was a long one for not just Scarlet and Esong but also for Carolyn and Markay. He was a mecha warrior too, a part of Esong's army and he was to return to the capital. He could have been given a stay order if he desired not to serve this time round because he was royalty but even then, he would be recalled to the capital which was the most secure place in the empire. Their parting was as inevitable as that of Scarlet and Esong.

For them, it was a sleepless night with Markay voicing many declarations to his weeping girlfriend.

"I will return baby, I swear, I will." He promised her aloud and himself in his heart.

"Boohoooo!!!" Carolyn beat her fist slowly against his chest and she wailed.
