21. Smile

Quinn . "Xavion!" I stood up and began walking towards the door but halted and crouched down upon hearing the sharp crack of lightning, which was soon followed by a loud clap of thunder. The rain wasn't that heavy, but the wind sounded scary. There seemed to be a helicopter situated on the rooftop of this house, and it sounded scary to me. Xavion stayed at the storage house outside, like the other night. I'm concerned about him because he refused to stay with me in this brick house, and now that the storm's eye is coming, I fear for his safety. When I opened the door, the sheet of lightning spread in the sky consecutively, giving a glimpse of light in the dark environment outside. The wind is crazy and quite intense. It could easily knock you off your feet. "Oh, my God!" As I attempted to close the door, a sudden gust of wind swept in and knocked over a few of my plants, leaving them scattered on the ground. I managed to shut the door as soon as I stepped outside. I cling tigh

22. It doesn't matter

Quinn . I was sitting on a wooden chair, holding a broomstick in one hand while observing Xavion as he gathered the scattered wood debris. The area has been thoroughly cleaned, and there is a noticeable improvement compared to three days ago. We never stop working. We only stop to eat and have a little rest. I was preparing for our dinner when I heard a knock on the door. I smiled and looked in that direction. "Come in, Xav." The door opened, and it was him. Obviously, it's only the two of us here on the Island. My heart beat faster the moment our eyes met. As he smiled, I reciprocated with a smile of my own. His gesture helped ease the tension between us, which brought me a sense of relief. It was yesterday's first time I saw his smile towards me, and I was over the moon. Finally, he is opening his heart to me. "I have brought some ointment for you. I discovered additional supplies in the storage room. Reeve used to utilize it as he had a severe allergy to the prickly bush s

23. Let it go

Xavion . "Do I look like I'm going to die last night?" I smirked and sat down beside her. I woke up feeling great today after getting a total of eight hours of sleep. My body felt refreshed and energised, allowing me to complete the tasks left over from yesterday easily. The sun is bright, and everything around me is good. They're all good in my eyes. I couldn't get a signal to reach Bryce, but I will work on a new connection later and see how it will go. But now, I am urged to sit beside her as she cooks potatoes outdoors in this small, messy kitchen I built. "Am I allowed to talk about this and that now?" Her worried look made me realise the rules that I never implemented. She was the one who brought it all up from the start. It was her idea to never make any requests of me nor ask things privately. "Ahm," I responded and gave her a slight nod. She replied with a small smile. Although I didn't directly look at her face, I could sense her expression from my peripheral vision.

24. Condition

Quinn . "It's getting better. Thank you for asking." I rolled back the bandage around my wound as I didn't want any bacteria around it. It's itchy, and there are times that I want to itch it so severely. "Just add more antiseptic cream if it feels itchy," he suggested. "That's what I've been doing, Xav. Last night was the worst. I was about to itch it, but I stopped myself. I ended up counting the sugar in bits and pieces." I rolled my tongue, and I wished it were a joke. But it wasn't a joke at all. His eyebrows crossed, and he said, "What?" He chuckled slightly with an unbelievable smile and shook his head. "Yes, I counted them because I couldn't sleep." I rested my arms on the sand while looking at the waves. We were sunbathing. Initially, I was alone, but later he joined me. I washed the cooking pot and used the sand as the scrubber. It worked. At least the black stain of the pot bum from the fire cooking got clean. Although it wasn't that clean but it's manageable. "You a

25. Curious

Xavion . I can't wait to finish this. Of all the troubles, why must it be my connection to Bryce and the boys? They can't reach me now. I have no connection to the real world and don't know what is happening out there. I am here with Quinn, and we are stranded. Dammit. "Here's the bucket. I filled it up with seagrass. Let me know if you need more. I will get more for you for this project!" The excitement in her voice puts a smile on my face. I am cleaning the giant aquarium stored inside the storage house for months. I used to have a lizard, an iguana name Luigi. Since we rarely go to the Island, we moved Luigi to our hideout where he could be cared for. "What do you want to add in there? I want some ocean fish or any swimming creatures." "I will check. I still have a pellet and fish food left there from last year. I guess that's enough until our rescue arrives. And if not. We will just let it return to the ocean," I suggested. "Yes, that's a good idea. Let's do that." She p

26. I'm sorry

Quinn . I can't hide my smile while watching the little fishes swim fast inside the aquarium. Xavion didn't fill the aquarium with much water. It was only less than half, but it was enough for the fish anyway. They seem lovely to see, giving me a fulfilling feeling every time I look at them. My problems faded, and my worries were thrown aside. I have no concerns with me now. The tension I felt for him has dissipated, and I am now comfortable around him during our time here. As long as I don't stare into his eyes too much, my feelings for him no longer worry me. I will not be defeated like how I used to be. "Have you toured around the Island? I wonder what's on the other side?" I expressed. When I first came here, I got bored and started my journey of travelling the Island to a full three hundred sixty degrees. But that didn't give me a good outcome. I ended up walking back to my journey five hours later. I realised there was no way to tour the Island in just one day. It takes a

27. Her story?

Xavion . Ignore her? Reject her? How could I do that? I will listen to her and see how things go. I was caught off guard because I never delved into her personal life. My feelings towards her changed the moment she turned her back on me. I harboured resentment towards her for a long time and became distrustful of women who resembled her. I swore to the devil that once I see her, I will make sure she will regret what she did to me. But dammit. What is happening now is entirely opposite to the way I wanted. "I'm ready!" I whirled around, and her majestic smile gave a warm feeling inside my heart. Damn. How did Quinn manage to steal my heart like this so quickly? Sometimes I just wanted to shut my eyes and close my ears so I couldn't hear her voice. But hell, that's impossible. I can't control my feelings, and every little movement of my body is betraying me. "Good to hear," I nodded and noticed the bag she was carrying, causing my brows to furrow. "Am I carrying too much? Shou

28. Snob with a warm heart

Quinn . I know Xavion will pay no interest in me and probably will get bored of my story. He hated me so much. I saw that. I am not blind to that. On rare occasions, I sense his frustration, but it’s not a frequent occurrence. Despite his icy gaze, I believe he has a kind heart that is eager to embrace me. I just need to break the ice to get into his heart. Way more to go, Quinn. You can do this! We reached three-quarters around, and the beauty of the Island was the same. Despite the need for cleaning up the litter that has washed up on the rough side of the shore from other parts of the world, the Island still showcases its natural beauty. There are plenty of crabs. Most of them are edible but very hard to catch. There are a lot of clams, and some are safe to eat at this part. The water is crystal clear, and you can see more fish swimming in this part closer to us. They can’t be caught because they move too quickly, and acquiring specific equipment is necessary to catch one. It

29. Adoring him behind

Xavion . "Aim it a little bit higher, Quinn. Focused on the target ahead. Think carefully about where you want to shot your subject." I gritted my teeth while seriously looking at her. I am standing behind her and notice her hand shaking slightly. She seems nervous and unsure about pulling the trigger. "There are two major spots to kill your target, Quinn. First, at the head, and second on his heart. Choose one. I know it's a crucial decision, but you must be strong to pull the trigger, Quinn. Holding the gun and aiming to kill someone is not easy," I reminded her as I wanted her to loosen up a little bit. "Oh, God. I can't do it." She sighed, and her shoulder dropped. "It's alright. It's your first time," I said, slowly touching her hand and removing the gun from her. I disassembled it, ensuring no bullets were inside, and handed it back to her. "Now try it without a bullet." I stepped a little bit and just watched her. She glanced at me, appearing more at ease this time. She

30. Take me

Xavion . I walked away the moment we arrived. I want to be alone for a moment. I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I have this feeling that she needs to survive without me. She's clingy at times and eager to learn things but scared. Something is off about her, and I want to know why. Looking back, I realise I should have conducted thorough research then. However, since I didn't want to reintegrate into her life, I neglected the critical tasks that needed my attention. "Dammit, Quinn, you are doing my head in," I whispered silently, and my body deflated on the chair. I'm inside the helicopter. Everything seems fine, except for the minor damage on the propeller. I'm just waiting for the boys to arrive and assist me. It has been three days since I last received a strong signal from them. Today, I am hoping for a positive outcome. It's easy for the boys to get here unless Bryce intentionally delays things. Damn, that lunatic. He is doing this on purpose. I connected a f
