2024-10-29 19:42:56Evie's jaw dropped. No! There's no way that her and Richard are going to be neighbors! And that house is her best friend's house!
"No way! I know whose house that is!" she yells at him.
"You do? It's my brother in law's house. Said I could use it for how long I'd like."
"You are Aron's brother in law?"
"Yeah, he's my twin sister's husband."
And her eyes just widened. That's why she felt like his face is familiar. The photo of Aron's fiancee. Richard just looks like the boy version of that girl! Why? She was having a good day with him!
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Yeah. But I need to go inside now." Without looking back she made her way towards her front door. She typed in her passcode and when she was about to turn the doorknob she remembers how Richard has been patient with her today. She looks back and saw him still waiting for her to open the door. "Welcome to the neighborhood and I had fun today."

Two weeks after the surfing competition, the four of them got to hang out at the Cloud nine spot again. The thing is, unlike what Brieanna had expected, Richard and Evie seemed to be distant from each other. It almost looks like something happened with in that day. Did they kiss? "So, where are you staying now, bro? Haven't seen you at the resort," William asked. Sometimes he just doesn't know how to read the atmosphere. "At my brother in law's house. Just across Evie's house," Richard answered. "Eh?" Brieanna and William were shocked. Now that she looks back at when they gave Evie a ride home, Richard was looking around the neighborhood. And brother in law? It would be too much of a coincidence if he is the brother in law of Evie's first love. But when she glances at the two of them, especially at Evie, it is kind of the situation. "Are you serious?" she asked, blinking couple of times. "It just happened that way," Evie muttered, twitching he

Brieanna didn't waste any second, she removed her seat belt and stormed out, her gaze following her cousin. "Kendal!" she calls, breathing heavily.Kendal turned around and her eyes went round to see her. She dropped her handbag and ran towards Brieanna, hugging her tightly, shedding some tears."Oh my God! I knew I'd find you here! I'm so sorry I took so long!" She hears Kendal cries. "I swear, I checked on everyone for you. You suddenly disappeared, I was so worried!""I missed you!""No, I missed you more!"They were both crying when William just got back, his eye brows drawn together slightly. He has no idea who that lady is but they seemed really close. He didn't want to interfere too so he waited."How did you find me?" Brieanna asked when they both calmed down."Our damn relatives brought the news. They said they'd seen you with surfers and a ... man," Kendal answered, looking down for a moment and back to her

The very next day, William just could not get enough of hugging Brieanna. Whether if she's cooking, washing dishes or watching a movie, his arms are secured around her waist."You agreed to it," she tells him. "Plus it's just two days and you will be flying to see me too and my family. What do you keep pouting about?""Two days is 48 hours, 2880 minutes, 172, 800 seconds. Do you want to know how many nanoseconds that is?"She could not help but laugh at how William was acting. He's like a kid who doesn't want his mama to leave, so adorable!"You know what you should do during those days? You should think of a speech, how you can convince my grandmother for me to live in with you for good.""We are already living in.""My grandmother is old fashion. She will not allow for you and I to live in.""She will allow us. Even Kendal allowed us when she knew we don't stay in the same room. And they know if I was an ass, I would hav

Brieanna and Kendal just got out of the airport. The scenes were just the same as Brieanna remembers. Well, it has been what? Almost two months ago when she pass by here? It doesn't feel like two months, it was way longer for her."You'll be just fine," Kendal told her once they got inside a taxi then tells the driver the address. "If Aunt Mary starts her usual scolding, just let it pass the other ear. That's what we always do, yes?""Yes," she nods. "I'm starting to guess what she is going to say. It must be something like, 'oh I thought you forgot the way home'. It's always something like that when I come home late.""Actually, the past few days, you won't believe she actually changed a bit-- just a tiny bit. I think she will hug you or slap you. It's either that." Kendal chuckled which she did too."Probably a slap."As she looks through the window, everything in her mind refreshed. The buildings and the busy street, the cafes, the fast foods, j

Well, she can use that day to make amends with her cousin and aunt.Now, all she has to do is sleep since she had a long day of traveling. But before she closes her eyes, she checked her phone.

If he won't text back by tomorrow, she's going to go home after the grand opening.That very next morning, Aunt Mary had gone to Brieanna's room quite early, only to find out she was awake. Well, sometimes her shift at the resort is really early so she got used to it. She smiled at her aunt and greeted a good morning.Like promised, Carmen

William just finished the phone call with Brieanna and the smile he had when they were talking had remained on his face. She had found out his background. Now he really doubts her to say yes to him if he asks for her hand. At the moment, he is packing his things. He knows it is just the first day with the two-day agreement but he can't waste a day traveling. If he goes after two days that'll cost him another day's travel so, he'd see her the fourth day or evening on the third which is far too long for him. Tomorrow, he will know if he'd take the ocean route or fly directly with Mochi. He would not leave their Mochi behind, Brieanna will kill him if he does. To pay off some of his absence, he will be doing the workload first. It'll be hard to do it when he gets back. Who knows what surprises Viola will be giving him when he returns. The next morning when everything was packed up for William and Mochi, he hears someone knoc

Brieanna came to the party late and with sleepy eyes from crying. Kendal then asked her if she was alright and she nodded slowly. Even Aunt Mary double asked her if she was really alright. "I'm fine, Auntie. I just had a little trouble while saying my goodbyes to Kirby," she reassures them with a smile. "I'm sorry I was still late." "Oh no worries," Kendal uttered, making an 'it's not a big deal' face, "I told you, you can be late this time." Brieanna looks around and noticed a lot of friends and relatives really came for the opening, some she doesn't even know. The ribbon cutting must have ended since she was late and food was being served already. Everything was okay, everything was quiet until Susie and Amanda just had to do the table-by-table rounds. They were asking the family guests if everything was okay if the food had tasted better than the others. Most distant family and friends would almost say yes all the time, lying about how

Richard brought Evie first to watch a movie. They didn't have the same taste when it comes to movies and they end up arguing before they could choose one. They ended up watching a romantic movie that neither of them likes. He was into action movies, people with guns, swords, and whatever that has many fighting scenes while Evie loves horror, the ones with lots of careless leads, blood, and chasing. Both of them just rested their chins on their palms, chewing popcorn, getting sleepy with the cringy romance on screen. Even she laughed when the girl got rejected by the lead guy, earning glares from people around. "I told you we should have just watched horror," she said, moving closer to his side. "I saw Timezone earlier, we should go there next." "Do you know how to ice skate?" he asked. Evie's brows drew together, shaking her head side to side. "Don't tell me you do!" "I don't. But there's an ice skating rink up on the highest floor. Want

A year since that day I ran away from home and decided to die on an island. I had the perfect idea of the perfect death. It was not unsuccessful. In fact, the lost soul, Brieanna died and is still submerged down the ocean floor. I never retrieved my backpack, it's my grave. Today, I am just with my surfboard, staring at the vast horizon, a golden one. The sun was setting beautifully like that day when I decided it was my last day on earth. It's majestic. The only difference was right now, the waves are crashing into my feet and I was not at a high place and I want to live. A corner of my mouth lifted when I saw the wave I wanted. I ran towards and embraced the ocean, not minding if it was cold or warm. I dived. With my chest on my board, I paddled to the lineup, my take-off zone. I waited and when I saw the wave I want, I chased it, ride it the way I would enjoy. With a grin on my face, I hop on my surfboard again. When I glanced at the shore, there I s

Florainne's birthday finally comes and Brieanna could not be more happy. The past few days since she came here have been really intense. Yes, Viola never asked her to leave nor was she offered money. But seriously, every now and then, Viola would indirectly tell her to leave the mansion, leave her children and leave them be! Oh if she could just leave without Florainne getting angry at her, and if the mansion was not so far away from the exit, oh dirt! She would have left already! Every time when Brieanna and Viola get to be alone, the demon in Viola comes out. Earlier this morning at breakfast, they had greeted Florainne with a happy birthday. They all looked like a happy family but Viola and Miller were not okay and so was Viola with everyone. It also looks like Viola is aware but she just would not care. Today is a busy day since all the preparations and the decor needs to be done before six in the evening because that is when the guests wou

Their plane just landed and Brieanna's legs felt like they have lost their strength. All the time she spent on the flight was her praying and hoping William's parents won't eat her alive. As they walk out of the airport, Brieanna was heading towards the line up for taxi when William grab her arm, pulling her towards the other direction. When she face ahead, her eyes widened at the Batmobile limo. "Are we r-really riding that?" "Though it's old, yes we are," he replied, flashing her a smile. A middle-aged man greeted them, opening the door for them. Of course, William let her enter first because he is a gentleman. The inside smelt expensive and she isn't comfortable at all. "Why can't we just ride a taxi instead?" "There's no taxi going to our house. They are just not allowed there." "So that means if I want to run away, I would need to run a couple of meters away to get a taxi?" "I wouldn't use '

It has been a week since Florainne and Ashton's visit came to an end. Now that Florainne's birthday party was coming, Brieanna could not focus on her work and neither could she on surfing. She has been telling Evie that she's really nervous and whenever she thinks of it her heart would not stop pounding. "Can we just move our flight, William? Make it like the very night of the party?" "Nope, I already booked the flight. It's tomorrow, Brie." William gave her a thin smile. "It'll be alright. Viola is the only enemy at the house. I'm sure father and you will get along like how you got along with Flora." "But Rain is a sweet girl! Your father is your father! He is a man!" She groans, rolling her eyes as she sits abruptly on the chair. "They are your parents!" Now she remembers how she was close with her parents too. Her parents were awesome until that accident had to take it all from her. It's just sad. Suddenly she felt William wrap

William woke up with the indistinct chatter he is hearing. And when he opened his eyes, he groaned because of the sunlight hitting his eyes. Damn it! His head is throbbing! Slowly, he sits up, his eyes still closed. Then he hears laughter from outside that made his brows draw together. One was sure Brieanna's but the other sounds like Florainne. To be sure, he got off his bed but once he did he felt dizzy that made him pause touching his forehead. After a while when the spinning stops, he continues to walk. When he was out of his door his eyes widened at the sight of Ashton just coming out of the other room. The young man immediately bowed his head down to him. "Master William, good morning!" If Ashton is here then he was not wrong when he thought he heard Flora's voice. But how would they know this place? "When did you--" "Yesterday, master William. Miss Brieanna came running to the resort to greet Miss Florainne," Ashton explains. "S

The room Florainne chose really shocked Brieanna that she 'eh' loudly. Why would William's sister want to sleep with her? Does she plan to kill her in her sleep? Since it has been decided, the young butler Ashton moved Florainne's luggage to Brieanna's room. Then after that, he left them to put his things in his room, telling the little missy that if she needed anything just knock on his door. Wow! Brieanna didn't think personal butlers still exist. "I search this up and the internet says I will be closer to you if I sleep with you," Florainne suddenly explained. Now that she said that, Brieanna gets it. "But why would you want to be closer to me?" "You are William's girlfriend, aren't you Miss Brieanna?" "Oh! Yes!" she chuckles nervously. "And yo-you can drop the 'miss'. You can call me sister too if you like. I think that would be cute." "A sister..." Florainne whispers, moving towards the bed and sit

Brieanna just got out of the shower when she hears a loud bang outside. Startled by that noise, she immediately walk towards her door, opening it and sticking her head out. Then she saw William's door open which made her frown. "William!" She calls but there was no answer. Slowly, she steps out of her room with only her towel around her naked body. Brieanna went past the living room and saw everything was fine. But what was the loud shutting of the door? Did William just storm out without saying anything? Was there an emergency? So, she went back and in front of her room, she suddenly faced William's open room again. With curiosity in her mind, she stepped inside his room. Nothing was a mess except for the towel on his bed. "Maybe there was just some emergency at the resort," she mumbles, shrugging as she turns around. Just as she was about to step away, she hears a ringing which made her turn around. Then she saw

After spending three days in the City, the four of them together with Mochi returned to the Island at last. Now that they are finally back, Brieanna was better than when she left. When they got home, she immediately went out to surf. Oh, how she missed the cold water, the warm sun, and the waves! She feels really alive to be back here again, no worries in her head, no more heavy burden. As soon as she sees her wave, she chased it, ride it before it broke and dissolves entirely. Just after some minutes, she sees William with his board, paddling towards her who just finished riding one. Her prince coming to meet her in paradise. "You are getting better and better. The way you snap and turn, it's sure a unique one," William commented that made her smile. Even she is aware that she has improved a lot. "I don't know how I did that. I just know it's kind of the right time to do that. I think it worked." "It did work." "I spent al

Around six in the evening when the four of them gathered inside William's hotel room. What Brieanna did to cover up her love bite is put some plaster strips there, saying Mochi had accidentally scratched her. Evie seemed to believe it which relieved her. If Evie believes it so will the rest of her family. "So, what did you guys do?" Richard suddenly asked them that flustered Brieanna. "We went somewhere to get some hot and spicy ramen," William answered. Although he lied, it saved both of them. "There's a ramen place here? We should all go there together before we leave!" "We are having dinner at Brieanna's place! Don't be stupid, point one! We'd be full by then!" "Oh yeah, I forgot to ask what time the dinner was." She took out her phone from her pocket and texted Kendal. Just some seconds later, she got a reply that says eight. Judging from the hotel's location, they should go around seven twenty-five since for sure they'll be spending
