Ever since he was a kid, Sieghal was convinced that something terrifying was lurking under the sea, waiting for him with its jaws wide open. But he had no clue what kind of creature it could be. His fear only grew worse when his dad fell into the ocean, forcing him to return to his hometown—Shira, to face the terror he'd never been able to overcome for years. Returning to Shira after all these years was no cakewalk for Sieghal, who despised the sea. While most folks would say the ocean is a super romantic place, not for Sieghal, it was just a gateway ready to drag his soul into death. Unlike him, the people of Shira believed that the ocean, which had sustained them for decades, was protected by a guardian—a wonderful entity with shimmering silver scales. And it was this entity that had saved his dad when he fell into the sea during a massive storm that night. "Is seventy million dollars is enough to buy your dignity, Alfreeda Sieghal?" "Sir Dylan, I'm not to try sell my soul just to get money for my dad's medical bills."

Summer Waves 09. Not Try To Sell My Soul
Sieghal and Theo sprinted through the hospital corridors, occasionally bumping into nurses and visitors. Sieghal's hurried apologies did little to pacify the grumbling passersby. They kept going, ignoring the irritated glances and muttered curses.Upon reaching the floor where their dad was, a nurse stood outside the room, clipboard in hand. "Are you Mr. Carl Hans' sons?""Yes, that's us—""No! I'm the only one responsible for my dad!" Theo interrupted, momentarily confusing the nurse. But when Sieghal gave a slight nod, the nurse quickly briefed them on Carl's condition."Your dad is critical. We need to act fast, or his lungs could fail, and he won't make it." the nurse was trying to explain their dad's condition to them."Just do it!" Theo commanded. "Do whatever it takes to keep my dad alive!""We understand, but since your dad doesn't have any health insurance, the hospital requires you to settle the surgery cost upfront, along with medication and recent care expenses." The nurse

Sieghal checked his phone when he heard it buzz. A message showed that five thousand dollars had been deposited into his account. That was his monthly salary from Vasco.Sighing, that's what Sieghal had been doing all day. He couldn't compare the money he got from Vasco with the amount left in his savings account and the hospital bills for his dad. Seventy million dollars, and in his account, he only had about two million dollars, plus the five thousand Vasco just sent him right now. It was still far from enough.Of course, it was nowhere near enough. What could he expect from working as a casino dealer without selling his soul to people like Zayn Arash?"No. I've had enough nightmares from that bastard, and I won't do something stupid like that again," he muttered, rubbing his face roughly and letting out a heavy sigh.After leaving Helbert in his car, Sieghal rushed home to give Theo the sandwich and coffee, which were probably cold by now. He didn't know if his brother would like w
Last Updated : 2025-01-03Summer Waves 07. He Say Sorry
07. He Say SorrySieghal was blindsided when Helbert suddenly showed up out of nowhere. To top it off, the guy blocked Zayn's access to him, freeing their hands and standing firm like some human shield, all to stop Zayn from pushing Sieghal any further."Good morning, Mr. Arash," Helbert greeted him.Sieghal's brow furrowed. Did Helbert and Zayn know each other? Even though Zayn looked jittery, he tried to stare down Helbert, who was glaring back at him with an icy expression that screamed he'd devour anyone whole. That kind of look would make anyone tremble in fear, just like it did to Zayn Arash at that moment."O—oh, I didn't expect to run into the head of the Dylan family so soon," Zayn responded to Helbert's greeting. "How are you? I hope you are great as always, Sir Dylan?" he extended his hand, hoping for a handshake, but Helbert's cold demeanor left him hanging."I was expecting you at my office this afternoon, but here we are, bright and early, with you 'exercising.'" Helber

Sieghal was picking up all the meds spilt on the floor last night. It was his last bottle before getting a new prescription from the pharmacy. They'd promised to send it over in two days once they restocked. Still, as of this morning, Sieghal hadn't gotten any confirmation from the hospital.Antidepressants. That's the only thing Sieghal could get after hitting up nearly every psychiatrist in Vegas. No hospital or clinic was left unvisited in his quest to shake off his fear and trauma. He'd tried every kind of therapy, but it was all in vain. That fear seemed to be ingrained in his soul, impossible to erase.Since he couldn't sleep, Sieghal cleared his mind with a shower, dousing his head with cold water in the early hours before the sun was even considering rising.As the water cascaded over him, Sieghal glanced at the scar left by the trauma he'd suffered that day. A Kraken bite covered almost half his calf, deep and unforgiving, the keloid mark refusing to budge despite all the cre

"Helbert! Helbert!"Little feet in flip-flops sprinted across the sand towards a young guy with long hair standing barefoot on the beach. The kid’s face lit up with joy, like seeing Helbert on the shore was the best thing that happened to him today, giving him two precious moments at once.Helbert Dylan, the young guy who had been his friend for a few years, grinned as he saw Sieghal running his way. The eleven-year-old boy had slightly dark skin and reddish hair from too much sun exposure and swimming under the blazing midday sun. His habit of wearing sleeveless shirts added to his uneven tan, a stark contrast to Helbert’s diamond-white, pale skin that seemed to sparkle in the sunlight."Hey Sieg, you shouldn’t run like that, it’s dangerous," Helbert warned, worried that if Sieghal fell, he might land on the sand and get hurt by hidden shells.True to Helbert's warning, Sieghal tripped, breaking his sandal strap, and almost fell if Helbert hadn’t quickly caught him. They hugged, and

"What—what are you doing here?" Sieghal asked, stepping back to close the door. But Helbert held it open with his strength.Sieghal's panic grew, sweat dripping down his face. He didn't want Helbert entering the house with just him inside, so he tried to push Helbert's hand away, hoping to shut the door and lock it. But his efforts were futile as Helbert forced his way in and locked the door behind him."Why are you doing this?! I'm sure my dad condition is your fault, right?! That's why you're at the hospital!"Sieghal spat, saying something meant to infuriate him, but Helbert didn't care. He pulled Sieghal close, reducing the distance between them to mere centimeters. Sieghal could feel Helbert's breath on his face."If your fear lies in the ocean, why blame me?""Wh—""I didn't come here to argue with you," he said, releasing Sieghal. "I'm just here for a negotiation you ignored in the first place.""I already told you, I'm not negotiating with you.""Even if this job could earn yo

Sieghal walked briskly out of the hospital, feeling that he might lose control of his emotions if he stayed inside any longer. But as he was about to enter the elevator, he accidentally bumped into someone coming out, causing him to fall."Ack!"Sieghal yelped as his butt hit the cold hospital floor. But immediately, the person he had bumped into extended a hand, trying to help him up."Can you get up," he said, hand outstretched.Initially, Sieghal was willing to take the man's hand and apologize for his clumsiness. Still, when their eyes met, Sieghal quickly withdrew his hand, ignoring it. Meanwhile, a woman standing beside that man watched them silently without intervening.Sieghal entered the elevator without saying a word, intending to leave them behind. Still, as he was about to press the button to go down, the man grabbed his hand and stepped into the elevator.If it were anyone else, they would be mesmerized by the man's handsomeness and well-built body. Standing nearly six fo
Last Updated : 2024-12-21Summer Waves 02. Land Of Shira
For the first time, Sieghal set foot again in his hometown, Shira—a small fishing town in North Yorkshire, England. It's not precisely sprawling but beautiful enough to be remembered as a place full of charm.Shira is this quaint little town nestled among cliffs and tall hills, flanked by a few mountains and rolling hills. Shira's sunsets are top-notch, the best anyone could find anywhere. It should be a perfect place to unwind from all life's chaos. Yet, for Sieghal, Shira is the last place he wants to be.After paying the taxi fare, Sieghal stepped out with his small suitcase. There it was—a peninsula with hundreds of boats lined up on the shore and a small village that was his leading destination after flying out of Las Vegas.Seeing the row of moored fishing boats, Sieghal felt nothing. But as his gaze drifted to the sea, an old fear washed over him.And here he was, at the house he left thirteen years ago. It hadn't changed; everything looked the same—from the window frames to th

The storm that night was terrifying for everyone out at sea, including Theodor and his dad, Carl."Pull up the nets! Don't let the waves cut them loose and take the fish we've caught tonight! Secure the anchor and use all your strength!" Carl yelled amid the rain and flashes of lightning, accompanied by the roar of waves that seemed like they would crush their boat in one sweep.Some crew were busy pulling the sails, balancing the wind direction and the boat's tilt. At the same time, Carl—the captain and owner of the ship—kept giving orders, shouting like a madman to keep the crew safe and bring home the fish they'd caught that night amid a storm that seemed eager to swallow them to the depths of the ocean.But when Theo tried to haul in the net full of fish, he ran into trouble. The chain binding the net got snagged on something, making their boat even more unstable. Despite his attempts, Theo couldn't fix the chain's position.Theo had no choice but to report it to his dad.
