The Diary

 Chapter 1"Brandon," I hold his hand in mine as he lay on the hospital bed.He seems so weak. It's hard for me to look at him in his eyes. Brandon was the captain of our high school football team. His enthusiasm for the sport was evident in his eyes. He is ready to push himself every time during practice.The gleam in his eyes as he punches his victorious waves in the air was a sight to see. I was there, in his every game, cheering him up. The smile plastered on his face as he scored the goal still hangs there in my mind.Gone the bulging muscle on his arm and torso, leaving only bones. His eyes that one sparkles every time he smiles replaced with sadness. He is the love of my life and will always be. His view on life was different from mine.

The Meeting

TEN people!I have to wait for ten people before ordering two cups of cappuccino. Slowly, pulling down the zip, my fingers touched a thousand things that I chucked into the bag hastily this morning.my eyes widened with a wicked smile plastered on my face as I found the thing that will push the plan forward.Glancing around, I have to make sure that nobody sees me or looking at me suspiciously. Satisfied that nobody is watching me, I throw out the plastic snake on the floor while screaming on top of my voice, like a crazy banshee. "snake, help."With people running around, trying to save themselves from the 'poisonous snake', I moved forward, placing myself at the front.

Turbulence

  Chapter 3(unedited) The light in the cabin flickered, on and off before going off. Did I tell you that I hate darkness? The only light in the cabin is the light from the thunder outside. My hand closing my ear every time the light brightens inside the cabin. Add that to the list, thunder with flashes of light. Just the right combination for a perfect horror story. Ironically, this is what I pictured whenever I read a thriller or a mystery novel. It's in a situation like this the murderer will come to the heroine, hiding his weapon stealthily under his coat. You will read further with your heart pounding behind your chest as if you want to warn the heroine or the main character, hey look out.  As if god is granting my wish, I saw an obsidian shadow nearing me in a very suspicious manner. My eyes flew open, fearing my life. This is not how I expect my life to end. Taking trembling step backwards, I looked around. Someone help me, please.

Hell No!

Out of thousands of flights today, why it should be mine that was affected by the weather? The bad curse has been following me since I met that Mr Dumbass that kept on asking whether I know him or not. The turbulence that happened a while ago was just a sign. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, the pilot had to land the plane at Mykonos. Athens is not far but again, bad weather and it means no travelling by land too."How would I know Jenna? It's not like Thor is my boyfriend and I can ask him to create this bad weather." I yelled. A small headache forming on the frontal part of my head. it will be a big one later."You know what, it was your fault. Destination wedding my foot." Someone gasped behind me hearing me throwing back the blame to a bride who has gone to bridezilla mode.The wedding is not tomorrow. It will be held on this Saturday. Five days more and I'm just the guest, not someone special. holding the mobile, I knocked it to my head.

FATE?

The sound of chirping was the first thing I heard as I opens my eyes slowly. Groggily, extending my arms sideways, I yawned. Rays of yellow hues with a tinge of red peeked through the window. As the colours clashed with the glass, a rainbow of beautiful colours splashed on the tiles, creating a stunning view celebrating a new morning with a new day and I hoped for better ones.A ding whistled, signalling a new message. After entering the password, I smiled. Indeed it was a promising morning, with favourable news. The weather has changed for the better and now the flight to Athens continues as normal. Then, a small flicker interrupted the reasonable train of thought. This means only one thing. I and Alex will meet again.Deciding not to disturb the nice feeling I'm having, I lifted that thought away. Morning is better started with coffee and a smile.After having quite a decent breakfast consist of toast and eggs, I made my way back to Mykonos Airpor

A DIFFERENT VIEW

 ALEX POVTrudging the small space provided in the room, I sighed again. I've told Jack there will be snow in Africa,  but there is no way in this current time that I will be willingly agreeing to be his best man. There was a lot of other option than I. There is no lack of good looking men in the family.Furthermore, that woman is married.  Shouldn't be her husband be the best pairing?Thousands of questions now besieged my mind. Imposing a lot of question marks. That woman is like a puzzle with a missing piece. Nothing seems to be the right fitting. Changing into a polo t-shirt, I make my way towards  Jack's room. Knocking on his door, he let me in after a few seconds. "Look for another best man." I gave my answer without him asking. "You can ask Will. He'll be ecstatic."Jack sighed. "I want you, man. Have I asked any favour from you before?"Shaking my head, "Nope. Ask me anything but no

Decision

REGINA"What happened between the both of you?" Jenna yelled, closing the door with a hard push. "Nothing," I said shrugging my shoulder. "And what is he talking about Brandon being your husband?" Her eyes bored into mine, asking for an explanation. "He made his assumption Jenna." sighing, I showed the ring. Slowly, I trudged the short gap between me and the bed. Sitting on the end side I looked around, trying to avoid Jenna's piercing look. Knowing Jenna, she won't be satisfied until I tell her the whole drama. So, I begin the story with the first incident, splashing the coffee on his shirt. I have to stop a few times when she needs me to repeat the biting episode.I thought she would be angry and the few curse words that she knew will fly out of her mouth and I will be stopping her from going out of this room and punching that asshole that she called her fiance's cousin. Lo and behold, she is laughing like a mad woman. "You bite his hand?""yeah," I answered, munching some fr

PEACE, NO WAR?

PEACE, NO WAR?SHOPPING with Jenna was something I dreaded as her cousin. She has this amazing stamina while I have a problem with my heel.It's not like I can lessen the pain by wearing flat-heeled sandals. It's just something that I inherited from my grandma. She had the same problem. The solution is less walking. Which seems impossible today. "Jenna, this is the last boutique. Please." "The last for today. I hope we can find something for you here." she walked inside the boutique that has this lavish outlook on the outside."I'm looking for a bridesmaid dress," Jenna announce to a rather jovial-looking girl at the counter."What colour would you prefer to have a look at?" The same girl asked.Jenna looked around for a while, not answering the girl's question."Any colour frankly and any type of dress," I answered. I'm the one who is going to wear it right? So it's better suited to my preference.The girl which has a name tag that reads as Rebecca called out another rather elegan

CAKE ANYONE?

CAKE ANYONE?JENNA as my cousin and as the bride are two different people. One is calm, happy, kind and nice to be with. One quality that can be good and bad at the same time is being a perfectionist.The same person however as a bride is like a horror movie. I don't understand the term bridezilla before this. Looking at her, I now fathom the term 'Zilla' at the end. Warning though, don't tell her that. She will chew me as dinner and flush me during breakfast.Jenna as a bride is terrifying. She needs everything to work out as she planned in small detail. She wants the seating like this. Flower arrangements like a Google picture. The bridesmaid has to walk like this and wave like that. I must smile as I meant it. Wedding planner? She is an event manager. Imagine that event planner as a bride. Cool ha!"I have looked around, Regina. My shoes are missing and the hair clips are missing. On top of that, we are late for the cake tasting." She sat down, looking under the bed and fat tears

THE FIRST OLIVE BRANCH

ALEX POVTHE FIRST OLIVE BRANCHI must have been out of my mind.That's the only explanation I can offer as Regina and I stroll through Plaka. It was foolish of me to bring her here, knowing that this place has a reputation for driving any girl or woman crazy with its endless shopping opportunities.Crazy and indecisive.One moment she adores something, and the next moment she dismisses it as just average, claiming she can find something better elsewhere."I think we should visit the Acropolis first. It can be our final stop," I suggest.Regina bursts into laughter. "So that I'll be too exhausted to shop?"Hearing her laughter, especially after our somewhat awkward introduction, feels refreshing. Beautiful, attractive women surround me constantly, seeking my attention like ants drawn to sugar. They thrive on it.But Regina is different. She doesn't actively seek attention; it naturally gravitates towards her.Her laughter isn't childish, but I can catch glimpses of her carefree, uninhi
