JUNO'S point of viewI wasn't sure how long did we just sat there on the bed in silence. But I cried with him. While he was soaking my shirt, I was doing the same and crying silently on his shoulder. I patted his back before pulling away from him slightly so I can see his soaked face. I smiled weakly as I wipe away the traces of tears on his face. His eyes were both bloodshot red and puffy, as well as his nose. I shifted on my seat and pulled him with me towards the center of the mattress so we can lay down for a bit and have a more comfortable position.Jupiter laid his head close to my chest as I wrapped my arm around his weak and trembling body. "So this is how it feels like? Losing both of your parents?" He heaved out a shaky breath before snuggling closer to me. "I couldn't imagine how painful it was for you back then, Juno. You were young and alone. Your parents' death were sudden unlike mine that is subtly preparing me and Venus for the worse.
JUNO'S point of viewAfter our joyful lunch by the seaside, we slept through the whole afternoon. It was nearly six in the evening when a knock woken me up from my deep slumber.I yawned drowsily, pulling my body out of Jupiter's warm embrace. I stretched shortly before swinging my leg off the bed. "Coming!" I said as the knocking continued. Jupiter stirred on his sleep as his arm and eyes immediately searched for me. I chuckled as I walked towards the door, reaching for the doorknob. Matilda's face greeted me and she quickly flashed me an apologetic face upon seeing my newly woke up puffy eyes."I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep, dear. I came here to invite the two of your for dinner. Would you like to join me and Gerard on the backyard?""Oh!" I exclaimed, smiling in excitement. "No problem, Matilda. Of course, Jupiter and I will be there in five. Please give us a minute to prepare.""I'm glad to hear that! I'll see you two downstairs."
JUNO'S point of view"Thank you so much, Matilda and Gerard. We loved the dinner. The foods are amazing and well cooked. We hope to eat meal with you guys again for the next days of our stay here." "Of course, dear! Let me know if you two want something in specific. I'll see if I can cook it for you guys," Matilda said."Oh, I love crabs, Matilda! I hope you have some special recipe for delicious seashells?" Jupiter kidded and Gerard quickly answered."Oh, there is! My wife knows a few recipe and they're the best. I'm gonna have a look at the wet market tomorrow for crabs. Or maybe in the fish landing for cheaper price.""We'll then, I'm looking forward to it."I cling my arm around Jupiter's as we finally headed back upstairs to our room. We'll get our wallets so we can have a look around the beach for some casual clothes."Tell Venus, or Jacob, that we'll be gone for a few days." I reminded him as we arrived back to the second floor. "I'm wor
JUNO'S point of viewWe got back inside our room and decided to take turns on the bathroom for a shower. It's still pretty early and I don't think I'd fell asleep for the next three hours.While Jupiter was in the bathroom, I decided to rummage in the drawers and check if the small television mounted in front of the bed is working. Thankfully, we're lucky 'cause it is working just fine. I also found some CDs inside the drawers and I silently squealed in excitement when I realized they were horror films!I love watching horror films but only if I have a company. I'll put this in the DVD player later once I'm done taking a bath."What are you so excited for?" Jupiter stepped out of the bathroom with only his boxers on. He was drying his soaked hair using a white towel while raising a brow at me.I smiled and showed him the CD films I have found. "Let's watch later! I'm just gonna take a shower.""Hmm..." he walked towards me and crouched dow
JUNO'S point of viewI was woken up from my deep slumber when I felt multiple warm kisses all over my face. I groaned lazily as my eyes fluttered open, seeing Jupiter grinning down at me.I looked around the room and realized that the sun's already up. And based on the sunlight piercing through the curtain covered window above us, it's probably nine or ten in the morning."Get up, sleepyhead. I'm so hungry!" Jupiter whined before attacking me with his wet kisses once again, going for my neck this time.I giggled loudly and tried to push him away. His growing stubbles were tickling my skin. "We should get you a razor, babe! And maybe, look around the place for any barber shop. Your hair's growing a lot.""Hmm... you don't like my long hair? I think I'm slaying in this style."I laughed as I pull my head out of the pillow. "Not really. You aged a lot with all these hairs.""Aww, damn! You're right, let's look around for hair salons. I better
JUNO'S point of viewJupiter decided he'll have a haircut outside while I spend the noon napping inside our room. He asked if I would like to accompany him but I immediately uttered a big NO when we passed by the only barber shop in the beach this afternoon, when we were buying toiletries and junk foods for our movie nights."Don't fall in love with the lifeguards outside while I'm not beside you, okay?" I joked and he rolled his eyes at me before slamming the door close. I jumped back to the bed, the television was on and playing a corny romantic local movie. My hand searched for the remote to turn it off as I'm starting to feel bored and sleepy because of the afternoon sunlight.My eyelids were getting heavy and I was at verge of losing my consciousness when I heard my phone rang loudly from the bedside table. I groaned, scratching my head before sitting up the bed to check on the caller.Monica."Yes, hello? We're setting up the laptop before yo
JUPITER'S point of view"Ready to leave?" Juno teases me with her wiggling brows after packing my laptop and charger on a random tote bag she found in the closet. I frowned at her as I threw myself back on the soft mattress of the bed. I never want to leave! I just want to stay here with her all week! Or maybe, forever...Juno sauntered to me and held my arm, pulling me laughingly off of the bed. "Get up, come on! You need to leave early so you'd be able to come back early as well. I don't want you to drive after the sun.""I don't want to!""But you have to!""What if horrible circumstances come my way and forbids me from coming back here?" I asked worriedly in which she just responded with a laugh."Then I'm packing up to follow you home.""That's even worse! We can't even finish a whole week vacation. There's always gotta be a disturbance!"Juno sighed before sitting at the edge of the bed. I sat up beside her and threw my arms
JUNO'S point of viewAn hour after Jupiter left, I sat there on the bed, bored to death and contemplating whether I should put on a movie to entertain myself. I groaned when I realized they're all horror movies and I couldn't watch them all by myself. Sighing, I reached for my phone and texted Jupiter instead.Juno:Let me know once you've arrive safely. Miss you already!It's nearly lunch and my stomach's beginning to grumble in hunger. I rose from the bed and slipped in my comfy sandals to grab some food outside. On my way out, the door across me burst open and a tall man emerged out of the room. Our eyes locked for a second before I looked away and made my way to the stairs. "Hey! Uh... my name's Mike!" He catched up to me and introduced himself. "Did you check in alone? I just got here last night. Loved the ambiance of this place."I smiled politely and extended my hand for a handshake. "Hello, I'm Juno. Nice meeting you, Mi
