<em>~Mila with the girls, Vince's exit from the castle~</em><br/><br/>Mila, curiosity piqued when the knock came, watched as Nicci went to open the door.  Vince stood there, and his words shocked her.  She blinked, wondering what could have happened to make him decide that the experiment was not for him.  She thought about going to talk to him, but then shrugged off the desire for so many reasons.  She didn't know him well enough to talk to him about something so personal; she had only met him a few hours ago, after all.  But also, being a part of something this big wasn't for everyone, and being pestered into staying would serve no good purpose.<br/><br/>Gone was the jovial, flirtatious Vince that she had danced with, and in his place stood this man,<em>this stranger,</em>who did not even enter the room to kiss her cheek and say goodbye.  As Vince turned and walked away, and Nicci shut the door behind him, Mila sat, shocked at what just happened.  She looked at the other women and realized that they too were stunned.<br/><br/>Nicci did not immediately move away from the door, instead standing with her back against it, her hand clutching the flowers Vince had just handed her.  Mila nibbled on her lower lip, at a bit of a loss on what to say.  So she said nothing at all.  Vince's leaving just further made her realized how precarious this entire experiment was.  She'd come to Scotland with such high hopes that her family would be waiting for her, and now she wasn't so sure.  But then, she looked at Mari and Nicci, and she realized that no matter the outcome, she'd already found a family of sorts.
