2024-10-29 19:42:56Gaby flipped through the bottle and stopped at Clark. It surprised everyone and silenced them. Later on, Matt smiles at Clark. Before Matt could get the salt, Clark had preceded him. The group teased him.
“Oh, come on!” said Riki. “Are you excited, Clark?”
“Shut up, Riki!” said Clark, annoyed.
Everyone is laughing. Gaby blushed. “Can Gaby just pass? She doesn’t drink alcohol?” Dylan replied with no smile.
“Geez, Dylan. You’re just jealous, so you want Gaby to pass,” said Riki.
Dylan took the slipper and tossed it to Riki, and everybody laughed. “Is that OK with you, Gab? You never drink beer, do you?” said Dylan.
Gaby smiled. “It’s OK.”
Gaby approached Clark, and he was looking at her with seriousness. Gaby was jumpy again. She couldn’t understand. Gaby immediately drank the contents of the shot glass. She could manage but frown to taste, so everyone laughed except Dylan, who was looking. Then she swallowed the lemon wedge and approached Clark’s neck with her lip.
Clark couldn’t breathe then, as if his heart had stopped for a second. He did not understand. He had not felt that for several years now. His whole body was warm when Gaby’s lips touched his neck. His heart was beating faster and faster than it would explode.
‘God, what is happening to me?’ Clark thought.
The ladies yelled again when Gaby finished. Her face became red, and she went back to her seat. She stared at Dylan, smiling at her.
Clark breathed when Gaby took off. Earlier, he thought he might have had a heart attack.
“You have an odd face, Clark!” said Matt.
He holds his phone while watching the video. “Damn it! Have you recorded it? Erase that.” Clark goes.
“I don’t want to do that. I’m uploading it now,” said Matt.
“Holy shit, Matt!” said Clark.
Clark got up quickly and approached Matt. The young man noticed and spun around for a run. Matt even tripped out of his way.
“Damn it!” said Matt.
“You’re mine when I catch you,” Clark screamed. “I want to strangle you.”
They laughed. Both ran for a few minutes, too, and Clark caught up with Matt. Clark runs after Matt and then spins around in the sand, grabbing the cell phone. When Clark got the phone, he immediately went through the photo. It even amazed him that Matt made a video and a photo.
“You’re insane, Matt!” said Clark.
Clark erased his picture and video on Matt’s phone, then threw them in the sand next to Matt. Soon, the two men were marching toward each other one by one. Clark picked up the bottle. Clark spun the bottle, and it stopped, pointing at Dylan. The group laughed louder. Dylan scratched his head as he placed a little salt on his neck. Clark immediately drank the contents of the liqueur glass, sipped the lemon, and then brought his lips near Dylan’s neck.
“Did we seem that way? This is disgusting, man,” said Matt loudly.
“You’re a great kisser, Clark.” Dylan chuckled.
“Silly!” Clark laughed at him.
Everyone laughed. Dylan flipped it over, and it hit Gaby. Ashlee, Sasha, and Belle screamed again.
Matt immediately approached them. Matt had to take the salt, but Dylan went ahead of him and put the salt on Gaby’s wrist.
“He is a gentleman!” said Riki with a laugh.
“Are you sure about that?” Matt laughed at the same time.
Dylan grabbed the glass, emptied it, drank the lemon, and applied his lip to Gaby’s wrist. Riki and Matt were scratching each other’s heads as though it disappointed them what Dylan did. Sasha, Ashlee, and Belle are thrilled. Dylan is so different from the other three. He’s a nice guy.
-
It was half past 11 when they agreed to return to the house. Sasha, Ashlee, and Belle were going on ahead and still arguing with Matt and Riki. Dylan and Gaby are behind them, and Clark is behind them all.
“Is everything OK? Aren’t you drunk?” Dylan asked.
“Maybe not. I think Belle and Sasha drank the bottle and pointed them out several times.” Gaby said, giggling.
Dylan laughed too. “Gab ..”
“Hmm?”
“Can we talk?” Dylan asked.
Dylan even held Gaby’s hand. “Please, Gab!”
Gaby said nothing but nodded. Dylan smiled slightly. When they got to the villa, they sat in the receiving area on the sofa. They were sitting beside each other. They even looked away when Clark entered the front door. He just looked at them and went directly to the kitchen.
“Dylan, I told you we don’t have to open the already closed things. We’re friends; I don’t want…,” Gab said.
“I have to, Gab. Please, listen to me,” said Dylan.
Gaby wasn’t saying anything. She’s been silent for a while. “Forgive me, Gab! I didn’t mean to leave you. I swear, I tried to contact and find you so that I could apologize and explain.” said Dylan.
Gaby couldn’t restrain her tears from flowing. But she wiped it right away with her hand.
“Gaby …” Dylan said.
Gaby giggles gently as she wipes her tears on both cheeks. “Dylan, how times should I tell you everything is fine, that you don’t need to explain yourself?” Gaby says. “I apologize if I cried a bit. It’s annoying. Suddenly, it’s leaking.”
Dylan said nothing about that. He sat down on Gaby’s front.
“I want your forgiveness, Gab!” Dylan said at one point.
“Do you think I’ll get close to you if I haven’t forgiven you yet?” Gab asked. Dylan turned to Gaby. “Life is too short to look back. We need to get started. Let’s be friends again.”
“Gaby …” Dylan said.
Gaby got on Dylan’s other cheek. “Breathe, Dy. We’re still friends. You don’t have to be guilty of something you can’t control. Move on.” said Gaby.
Dylan picked up Gaby’s hand and held her cheek. “I’m sorry, Gab!” told Dylan.
“I want to rest, Dylan,” told Gaby.
Dylan looked into Gaby first and then spoke. “Let me take you into your room.”
Gaby just smiled, and Dylan stood up together. Dylan brought Gaby to her bedroom. They open the door. Dylan frowned. The three women stumbled across the enormous bed and were in unique positions. Dylan shook his head. Gaby was on her way to the room when Dylan grabbed her hand.
“You can’t stay here. I want you in the other room,” said Dylan.
Gaby looked at her friends and laughed. “I’ll just take my stuff,” said Gaby.
Dylan smiled. “Let me!”
Taking her things, Dylan shut the door and led Gaby to the next room. Dylan opened the door and inserted Gaby’s things.
“Just sleep in here. Leave the three over there,” said Dylan.
Gaby laughed. “Go get me a blanket and a pillow!” said Dylan.
Dylan left, and Gaby took her clothes from the bag and quickly entered the bathroom.
When Dylan returned, he knocked at the door, but since it was always open, he came in. Gaby wasn’t there, but he heard the shower in the bathroom, so he just set up the pillow and quilt on the bed. Dylan took Gaby’s purse, which was always open, and put it on the bed. When Dylan put the bag on the bed, he noticed bottles and boxes that looked like medicine. He looked at the bathroom and then picked up the bottle just above the inside of the bag.
Dylan was frowning because it was an odd drug. ‘Is she sick?’
Dylan took his phone out of his pocket, took a picture of the medicine, and returned it to Gaby’s bag. He just left the bedroom and locked the door to Gaby’s room.
—
Dylan was lying in bed. He couldn’t have forgotten the medicine he found in Gaby’s purse.
“Why you’re still awake?” Clark asked him upon entering the room.
“I can’t fall asleep,” said Dylan.
“Why? You have a problem?” Clark asked, lying on the other bed.
“Nothing,” said Dylan.
“Did you speak to her?” replied Clark.
“Yeah! Earlier,” said Dylan.
“And that’s what you seem like? Haven’t you forgiven yet?” Clark asked.
“She said she forgives me. We’re still friends after everything that happened,” said Dylan.
“That’s it! Why are you like this?” asked Clark.
Dylan took a deep breath. “She’s not the same person she used to be. A lot of things changed about her.”
“Maybe she’s more mature than she was. You’re not high schoolers anymore,” said Clark. “Why don’t you follow what she wants? You know she could be comfortable with it.”
Dylan didn’t say he was looking at Clark. “Stop staring, dude. You’re scary. You still have a drink!” said Clark.
Dylan chuckled behind Clark’s back. “As though I wanted you!”
“Ah, go to sleep! Good night!” said Clark.
Dylan shook his head and put his hand on his head. ‘Gaby!’ Dylan thought.

Gaby woke up early. No matter how wakeful she was, she used to wake up early. She left the house and went joyfully toward the beach. She took a deep breath and drew near the water, where her foot was wet. The saltwater was warm, so her body relaxed. “Thank you, Lord!” she cried out. “Whooohoooo!” Gaby opens wide her two arms and lets the air envelop her entire body. It was the most relaxing since she went back to the Philippines. In Canada, she was right at home; sometimes they would walk to get some air. But she prefers it here. It’s all-natural when she’s here. She feels better. “Thank you, Lord! Wake me up again tomorrow!” She shouted again, then laughed as if there was no tomorrow. Gaby was so happy. She could not do so in their apartment. She can only wake up her housemates. But on the beach, she can shout as loudly as possible. Gaby was so grateful and extremely happy. Clark just got into a bath. He woke up early because he couldn’t sleep after drinking last night. His roomm

“Can I just ask? If you don’t want to tell stories.” Gaby said.Gaby stopped again and faced him. She waited for him, and then they walked together again.“Tss, you are an annoyance!” he said as he looked out to sea, smiling.Clark purposely turned away to avoid seeing his uncontrollable smile. But unbeknownst to him, Gaby heard her weak laugh, so Gaby smiled again.“Do you have a girlfriend?” Gaby asked.“You were suddenly interested in my love life?” he asked. “You’re into me, aren’t you?”Gaby frowned at him. It’s the reason his heart jumped again. ‘It’s bad. She frowns, but she’s still beautiful. She’s an angel. There’s nothing ugly about her!’“Like? I’m just asking a question, but your thinking is so advanced. Haven’t you ever realized that you can’t just have something to talk about?” Gaby shook her head.Clark said nothing about it. Gaby doesn’t like other girls. She doesn’t care about him romantically. She might be in love with Dylan. They were close. It would be no surprise i

After breakfast, they went all the way to Sasha’s ranch. Gaby was so happy to see the big barn. They breed other animals, such as pigs, goats, chickens, ducks, cows, turkeys, and pigeons. They never lost their smile as they watched Gaby. “Gaby is adorable, Dylan. She’s like a kid. Is she the way she is?” Belle asked. “Yeah, Gaby is a cheerful person. She can easily appreciate things, no matter how small or big. It’s one thing I liked about her,” says Dylan. “So, you’ve been in love with Gaby ever since?” Sasha asked. Dylan said nothing, smiled at them, and looked at Gaby. “You’re such a cutie, Gaby. You are like a child!” said Ashlee, laughing at her gaze. Her smile was beautiful, and her body was vivacious compared to when they met her for the first time. “I’m sorry, guys. Do I seem like a fool? I’ve never done this before and can’t hide my excitement. This is a dream that has become a reality. Thanks, Sasha!” Gaby said, squeezing her friend into her arms. Sasha giggled and hug

Dylan and Clark just set eyes on Gaby, who was impressed by what she did. When she fell into the water, they waited for her to float, but a few seconds later, Gaby did not come up. “Oh my, where is she?” Ashlee asked. Everybody was trying to find Gaby. She’s not been back up since she fell in the water. It’s been nearly thirty seconds. Gaby leaned on the rock and breathed deeply. She grabbed her chest. When she realized her friends were worried, she climbed the rock and relaxed. She took a deep breath before she said a word. “Are you looking for me?” Gaby said, smiling. Everyone turned around and didn’t respond right away. Gaby swam a long way despite falling across from them. “Hell, you’re so different, Gaby. Are you some angel?” Matt shouted. Everyone swam quickly toward Gaby, and even though she was confused, she swam closer to them. “You’re back!” said Dylan when he got closer to her. “You’re great! You’re a swimmer, don’t you?” Matt asked. “She is a swimmer and participa

Upon arriving at the ranch, Sasha’s staff immediately greeted them. Women are still getting help. Dylan and Gaby are behind. Clark couldn’t explain how he felt when he saw the girl leaning on Dylan’s relaxed body. The staff there supported them, and the older man greeted them at the villa. It surprised them that they made the meal for them—fresh seafood such as crab, shrimp, grilled fish, and large squid. There is fresh fruit as well. They set up a boodle fight. The staff had lunch with them. That was quite a pleasant lunch. After eating, they agreed to spend time at the beach. They also brought beer in the cooler and junk food. Clark showed up at the beach within the hour. It surprised him when Gaby was with Belle playing on the beach. Gaby’s having the time of her life like she’s never had a problem.

Dylan stopped laughing while hearing a telephone ring. He looked for it and found it under the shawl Gaby had left on the chair. He took it. When he gets up from the phone, he sees the name on the screen. “Guys, wait for a second. I’ll answer the call,” said Dylan. “Who is that?” Sasha asked “Oh, Gaby’s father…” said Dylan. “Gaby’s father calls you? You are the man, Dylan!” said Matt. “Crazy! Gaby left her phone. I’ll pick it up. It might be important. She’s not here yet!” said Dylan. Dylan was entirely away from the group when Gaby’s phone stopped ringing. He will return to the group when he rings again, and the name of Gaby’s father appears. He answered it immediately. “Hello, baby, how are you doing? Did you always take your meds? Do you enjoy your vacation?” Gaby’s daddy asked in succession. “H- hello, Tito. I’m sorry. Gaby left her phone on the table. She just left for a while,” said Dylan. “Oh, I’m sorry.” Dylan heard the guy laugh. “Anyway, who are you?” “This is Dylan

They turned to the door. Dylan comes close to them. His forehead furrowed, seeing them both together. He noticed his hand on Gaby, stroking her chest. “Are you all right?” said Dylan. Clark smirked. “I did nothing to her if that’s what you think; you don’t have to react that way.” Dylan looked at Clark, but he said nothing. He had another look at Gaby. Dylan asked Gaby. “Are you okay?” Gaby was a little surprised at the way Dylan reacted. Then she shook his head. “I’m fine,” said Gaby. “You sure about that?” Dylan asked again. Gaby stared at him. “Why are you staring at me like that?” asked Dylan. “What makes you think I feel anything?” Gaby asked. “When I went in because you held your chest, and you look pale, I thought….” Dylan said. “You’re so sweet, Dylan, but you’re overreacting,” Gaby said as she held Dylan’s other cheek. Clark stared at both. Clark could see the worry on Dylan’s face. ‘What’s this Dylan drama? It’s Overreacting!‘ “I’m moving out,” said Clark. They

Everyone else laughed. “Truth or dare?” Matt asked. “Truth!” Dylan said, smiling. “Gaby, truth!” said Matt with a laugh. Gabby looked at Dylan. “Did you ever become insecure with me? When?” Dylan had a sudden laugh. “Yes!” “Whoa!” said friends right away, except Clark. “As in? You are insecure with Gaby?” Matt asked in shock. “Well, you don’t know her, so you can’t understand me, but something I’m telling you, don’t challenge her,” Dylan said, laughing. “I am a little intrigued by you now, Gaby,” said Ashlee. Gaby laughed and said nothing. “When did it happen?” Riki asked. “It was the first time I had a holiday in Canada. I ran into a pretty girl on a basketball court near the house. I play with many teens there, and she teases us because she wants to join us, but my friends wouldn’t let her because she’s slim and we’re all boys. And bec

Matt sat down next to Clark. Matt took Clark's hand of the ice cream cone and handed it a new one. He threw away the melted ice cream and gave Clark a tissue. "I know you're unlucky now, dude, but don't fall in love with me. I know my charisma is strong." Matt joked. "Tsk, you're pure bullshit," said Clark "You're too serious a dude," said Matt. Clark looked to where Gaby and Dylan were. "Don't be jealous now, dude. They need each other at a time like this." Clark looked at Matt. 'Does he know about Dylan?' Clark thought. "Why would they need each other?" Clark asked. "Let's say there are things that are hard to say, just like telling the truth to the person you love," said Matt Clark didn't speak anymore, and he just took a deep breath. Clark was surprised when Matt took the ice cream cone he was holding. "You're wasting food. If you don't want ice cream, I'll eat it, okay?" said Matt.

Surprised, they all went down to the kitchen after the housemaid called them, as Gaby was busy in the kitchen. The helpers set the dining table while Gaby was busy transferring the food into the bowls. Even Jeff, Isabel, and Franco were surprised. Gaby smiled as she saw everyone standing at the dining-room door. "Good morning …" Gaby said, smiling. "Why are you still standing there? Let's have breakfast together." Everyone acted at once and sat down in front of the long table. Gaby prepared a variety of food. Gaby glanced at Dylan but immediately looked away, and Gaby smiled at Clark. "Why do you look like that? You can't believe it." Gaby said, laughing. Gaby sat down next to Isabel and looked at everyone. She felt the pain of being able to make her look at Dylan. He smiled as he talked to Matt. Unbeknownst to Gaby, Clark was watching her. "Didn't you sleep last night, Gaby?" Riki suddenly asked. Gaby glanced at Riki. "Not so much." "Why? Are you feeling anything?" Franco asked.

Do you think I didn't notice?" Matt said. Dylan took a deep breath. "Notice what?" Matt crossed his arms and then stared at Dylan. "What if I find out what's going on with you and I tell the gang?" "Do it," Dylan said. "Do not you trust me?" Dylan looked at Matt. He knew Matt, he was sure if he hadn't told Matt what he noticed he would investigate, and he would tell his friends what he found out. Matt started walking away from the garage when Dylan spoke again. "One month," Dylan said Matt turned away then frowned. "I- I only have ..... one month to live." Dylan had a hard time saying that.

"Maybe there is, but we noticed that because we were close to Gaby when she was young," Isabel said. "Auntie, just curious, how can you tell your sister what happened?" Sasha asked.
