At the same table, Chadwick and Isa fell into silence. Adira’s last words left a deep impression.

[“But that someone rejected him. My husband told me this story before. That he likes a woman, but that woman likes someone else. But the other guy likes another woman too. Then, my husband met me, and we got married.”]

Isa would agree that she succeeded in pushing Adira out of the way. Because if Adira wasn’t bothered, then she would stay by their side until the end. However, even if Adira is out, Isa felt like she was knocked out by a strong punch. It is more painful than the time she directly heard from Geoffrey that he loves Adira. She was wordless with rage, almost choking her and nearly suffocating her fury.

From the start, she knew that Adira was a strong enemy. Yet she took the risk, and, in the end, she lost again.

On the other side, Chadwick was in deep thoughts. When Geoffrey came to their house to send Adira back and to bring her phone, he had a guess that maybe Geoffrey had

    Adira’s POVI am not mad.I am just tired.There’s no way I got mad because he’s defending Isa.I stopped walking and sighed. For many times, I kept on telling myself that I am not affected at all. However, all evidence so far tells me that I am in denial.First, I called him dumb, idiot and foolish. I failed to control my expression and my tongue.Second, it was suffocating staying with him alone in one space, so I escaped away.‘I am not being my usual self. This isn’t me.’To gain my sanity and snapped myself out, I walked alone onto the shore.My eyes looked at the ocean. There was a brief minutes of blindness as my eyes adjusted force of orientation based on the sound of the wave. At night it feels completely different from the beach during the same daytime. It is the same place, yet the atmosphere has changed.There are no daytime crowds, couples, groups playing volleyball and seagulls raiding unattended food.The darkness envelopes me with a sense of peace; a feeling of freedom

    Isa was so annoyed and just barely escaped from the nosy Neil. Chadwick’s secretary talked so much; it is obvious he’s purposely talking to her so that she would not follow Chadwick anymore. “Until now I can hear his voice,” Isa complained while shaking her ear. Walking beside the pool near the villa, Isa recalled what Adira told her a moment ago. [“But that someone rejected him. My husband told me this story before. That he likes a woman, but that woman likes someone else. But the other guy likes another woman too. Then, my husband met me, and we got married.”] She stopped walking and shot daggers with her eyes. Snorting, she crossed her arms while laughing sarcastically. ‘Look how that woman boasting and using my older brother’s feelings. I really hate her!’ Not only that, but Isa also lost the chance to be with Chadwick longer and she failed to execute the plan. ‘Before, no matter what happens, Chadwick always chooses my side,’ Isa said to herself and bit her lower lips.

    The staff of the beach resort gasped as soon as they saw the handsome young master, Geoffrey. When Geoffrey and Isa’s parents were still alive, the whole family always visited the resort. But when died, Geoffrey never went to this place again. NEVER, until now.Wearing ripped pants and a white shirt, Geoffrey walked towards the staff. He recognized some, but others were new to him.“Y-Young master,” the staff, who recognized him, uttered.All looked at the man with blonde hair, rigid hawk-eyes, tanned skin, arched brows, pointed nose, heart-shaped lips, and long legs. He looks like a prince who hopped down from a white horse. But when they saw the helmet he’s carrying, they imagined him as a hot guy in his motorbike instead.Wearing perturbed expressions, Geoffrey approached them. The musky and mint scent from him made a pleasant scent around the place.“Where is Isa?” Geoffrey asked.“Miss Isa went to serve drinks for the guests in the resort,” one answered.“Who are the guests?”“The

    Early in the morning, Isa went out to walk on the shore. She could hear the sounds of waves applauding and hugging the shore, an internal pleasant sound of the body out in the world’s biggest pool.She inhaled the salty smell of the wind, so strong that it dances on her taste buds. Carrying her sandals, Isa looked at the ocean that looks exceptionally blue today with a slight green undertone. The surface looked as though it was covered with millions of diamonds crashing with the waves and kissing the white sand.It feels like standing on a coarse cloud that she could just sleep into, as the sand went between her feel. The water is teasing her toes and running back into hiding. Repeating the cycle getting closer and closer each time until she felt the rush of the current under her and the sand being pulled out from between her toes and back into the ocean.The sea really has the ability to let someone relax, to take a break and melt worries and distractions. But no matter how majestic t

    Wearing aprons, the two handsome men began to cook for breakfast.As the invisible timer began ticking, Chadwick grabbed the blender from the side. He placed egg yolks, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and hot sauce all in the blender. Then, he pulsed it for 5 seconds. He streamed in it the melted butter until it completely blended. Next, he put the Hollandaise sauce in a pan of hot water to keep it warm.As he opened the fire, Chadwick looked at his opponent.Not bothering to watch Chadwick, Geoffrey places the vegetables on the cutting board. He cut off a third of the sweet red pepper and the whole jalapeno and cleaned out the seeds. Then, he diced both into tiny pieces. He cut half the onion into tiny pieces before he grabbed two pans he would use.When Geoffrey picked out the tortillas, Chadwick can guess what he will cook. He shook his head and tried to focus on his dish.Chadwick placed a pan on the other stove. He heated up the Canadian bacon slices until it went brown. Then, he toa

    The reason why Chadwick and Geoffrey wanted Adira to choose who cooked the best, is it because of their pride? Their urge to win against each other?Declining to give them satisfaction, Adira purposely did not give her answer. Thus, she transferred all responsibility to the employees who came to the cottage.“Come here, guys. I have something for you~”The employees looked at each other. They all know about what happened last night; when Adira drowned, and Chadwick failed to save her. Surely, it must be difficult to get along with the couple, however, they doubted if they were right. Looking at the smiling Adira and her husband who’s wearing an apron, they thought that maybe, it is finally safe to approach the two.They wore awkward smiles as they walked near the three. Then, Adira began to introduce the dishes.“Here, we have two candidates,” Adira said, placing two plates on the other table. “Eggs Benedict and Burrito. Have a taste and decide which one is better.”The five employees

    Adira’s POVThe first thing that I did after knowing that Geoffrey is related to Isa and Chadwick is investigate. When they first met and how they became acquainted with each other.Geoffrey transferred into Isa and Chadwick’s school during high school.

But before graduation, the three suddenly stopped hanging out together, leaving Geoffrey alone while Isa and Chadwick were still good friends.The reason why their friendship broke isn’t plucking stars up in the night sky. It is so easy to guess.‘Probably, it is because of a woman.’Perhaps, Geoffrey avoided them after getting confessed by his stepsister. Or he knew that Chadwick has feelings for Isa, so he gave way.Whatever the case, I did not put my husband and Geoffrey together on purpose just to mend their broken friendship.

    Adira’s POV Often, when someone has a head injury, she won’t remember the details of the accident. What happened, how she got hurt and who’s with her during the incident. But as soon as opened my eyes, everything came to me so vividly. I recalled how I saw the sign board above that was swaying down, when I looked at Chadwick who was standing beneath, when I ran towards his side and when I pushed him away and got hurt instead. Above all, the realization I had while running towards him came to me like a wave. It wasn’t calm, gentle, or destructive. Just… something I expected ever since I admitted that it might be possible to fall in love. I blinked my eyes slowly while looking at the white ceiling above the hospital room.
