54T H E AThea,I have left while you were asleep. You looked beautiful and you slept peacefully so I couldn't wake you up. About what happened, don't worry a thing about it. Nothing will change between us and if it makes you comfortable I'll act like nothing happened. Rest well. I'll see you in the morning.Benedict.I sigh as I slip the small note into my bag and kept inside a secret pocket. The yacht has now arrived the island and I wasn't too excited to be here. Honestly, I wanted to go home now. I don't feel like something good will happen here in this island.I gave out a heavier sigh.Someone suddenly knocks on my door and I see the view of Sebastian entering my room. He smiles at me and gave me a quick hug."I was worried about you last night and where you went to." He says, rubbing my back.I smiled at him. "I wasn't well last night. Seasick."My eyes travelled to the ground. He rubs the top of my hand and said, "Well I'm glad you're all right now."I smiled at him and pulle
55T H E AI exhaled heavily looking at the swimwear's prices. It was waaaay too expensive and that piece I loved was very pricey. I wouldn't want to take advantage of this gold card that Sebastian gave me."That gold piece will definitely look good on you."I spin around and saw Lovemarie standing behind me.She smiles. I don't know if it's fake on or not but she said, "Hey."I smiled. "Hello."She picks up a cute top but she frowns looking at it then picks up another one and makes an approving look. "They have some great pieces here. Ben said."Ben. She can casually call him Ben."You seem like you don't like it." I say."Oh I do. It's just that... I'm very picky when it comes to clothes." She chuckles.I nod.I watch her as she starts picking another kind of clothing and then all of a sudden hands it to me."Here. This will suit your eyes." She smiles.I don't know if she even meant it or not but what she picked was beautiful. She chuckles, "Take that and that gold one."I shake my
56T H E AI exhale nervously.It makes me curious why he's all over me so suddenly when he doesn't even care about me before. He's been getting too touchy and too close. It makes me worry why he is actually being like this. I don't know his motive and it's hard to tell if he's just trying to flirt with me or not. But I am way too far from being a little bit interested with this very devious man. But I'm sure that he has reasons why he is being like this.I just don't know what."You look like you're ready." He adds."Well..." I stutter. "I'll be joining in a bit after I finish things here."He chuckles. "What the hell are you doing here?"I shake my head. "Putting my things out.""You didn't look like you brought a lot of things with you here." He smirks.I hate him. He's so annoying.And irresistibly gorgeous."Well, hurry up. You're missing the fun." He says.I nod as I watch him stand up straight with that devilish grin plastered on his handsome face."Are you staying here because
57T H E AI like it.I don't like it.Arghhhh!!Sebastian looks upset and I know he wanted to exchange partners so bad but everyone said and agreed that no one should change partners as soon as the app will start choosing its own.I sigh.I glance at Benedict and he kept an impassive look on his face. His arms were inserted inside his pockets and he was just quiet while the rest of the people that were around us were talking to their partners."I think I'll pass this one." Benedict suddenly called out and got everyone's attention.All of them looked back at Benedict."Why?" Bethany asked."It'll be a great group activity for all of us." PJ says.The twin agreed."Don't be a party poop." Troy commented."It's been a while since we had this kind of outdoor activity man. Don't be like this." Khaleel says.I watch Benedict shaking his head and answered, "My hands hurt due to all the barbecuing a while ago and I am not great with sandcastles. We all know that lads."I sigh inwardly.I thi
58T H E A"Last five minutes." I hear Benedict's voice.I look over to other sandcastles that has been put up and everything weren't that bad, most especially Tommy's. He's really definitely Liv's son. Actually, when Liv and I were still together, I didn't get to meet any of his sons. I wasn't that ready to face them and I thankfully decided to do that because I would be dead caught now if he knew me back then.Compared to Liv's work from the other castles, our sandcastle was more castle-like in structure. I am not only saying this because I love my own, but I am saying this because it is true. I guess I'm having that special meal and dessert tonight all thanks to Liv."I'll get the last pail for finishing this part." Liv says."No. Let me do it." I volunteered.I grabbed the pail from his hand and walked towards the waters. I noticed a few shells from afar and decided that it may add decorations to our sandcastle. As soon as I sited it, I walked towards the small shells and picked t
59T H E AI put on some earring and fixed my hair. Since I had a wounded foot, Sebastian decided to have our date inside the villa while the others were having their dinner outside at the yard. He said he wanted to have me solo for tonight since he was busy the entire day and he felt bad for what happened to me.As for Benedict, I haven't seen much of him today. I don't know if he's hiding from me or he talked with Khaleel about what we discussed inside the clinic. By I was seriously disappointed at Benedict, most of the people asked and worried about me. But he never even talked to me and asked me if I was fine or how was my foot. God that man is despicable!I sigh as I look at my reflection. "Man up Thea. Tell Sebastian that you don't like him."A knock came by my door and I knew that it was already Sebastian. I headed straight to the door and decided to open it. But it was someone else."Hey." He smiled tightlipped."Khaleel." I welcomed his presence. "What brings your here? I tho
60T H E ATHREE YEARS AGO...When I resigned the club and left London, Sky had already been furiously mad because I was hard-headed. He didn't want me to leave because he doesn't trust the guy I chose but I'm so in love with Liv.I wanna be where he is. I wanna be with him all the time. I wanna see him when I wake up in the morning or before I fall asleep at night. I wanna lay with him, eat with him, cook for him, prepare his clothes before he starts his day at work. I wanna live with him in one house.College was really great so far. The feeling of being in school again, felt so nice. A mixture of thrilling and exciting were building inside. I was actually having fun and learning a lot in Scotland. Liv was the one who paid for everything, from the university fee, to my new clothes, new bags, shoes, books, pens, notebooks, and my own flat. Everything that I needed was paid by Liv and though it was difficult to adjust myself in this new surrounding, I did it for him because it would m
61T H E APRESENT..."Are you still mad?"My eyes travelled back to Liv while I was being dead silent for a couple of minutes. I try to process the question that he asked me but I was also unsure of my own answer. I take a couple more seconds to think.Am I still mad with all the things that he did to me?I don't know."Then I take that as a yes." He answers his own question and looked away from me.I sigh and looked away from him too."I don't know Liv." I admitted."I..." I trailed off.I breath and exhaled. "I don't know if I'm still mad at you. I don't even know if I can even forget those things. I don't know if... I don't know if I can even forget our past Liv. You're like a ghost."I turn my head back to him and he was already looking at me. "A ghost that follows me everywhere I go. You're always haunting me. In my dreams. In my thoughts. At work. Even after being away from you, you haunt me.""Is it bad that I do?" He asks. "Do you feel mad when you remember me? Do I still dis
