I was still pretending to be asleep. I didn't open my eyes until I heard footsteps going away. I heard a deep sigh next to me so I slowly opened my eyes to see who it was. Edmund's dark eyes greeted me. His appearance is tough. "H-Hi..." I said. My throat felt dry. He acted easily and without saying a word handed me the water he poured from a jug on the table not far from the hospital bed. "Drink first." I took the glass but he was still supporting my every move. I finished a glass of water and then handed it back to him. "T-Thank you..." He took the glass and stood up to put it back on the table. "Get some rest, Lily." I snorted immediately. "But I've been resting for a long time..." How many days have I been here and it feels like a decade? I did nothing but sleep, answer the doctor and eat. I caught up with Edmund when I woke up but he was also leaving. He sighed and returned to my side. He gently caressed my hair so that I stared at his tense jaw. Is he angry? "How

I turned my back on the bed for a while but was still sleepy so I got up to take a look at Edmund's situation. He was lying on the sofa, although it wasn’t big enough for him.I told him that he can sleep on the bed, next to me, after all, we fit, but he refused. Afraid that he’d hit my wound again.The doctor said it will heal in one to two weeks. The wound is deep and because it was brought to the hospital too late, it is said that it will heal more slowly.I stared at Edmund's peaceful face while sleeping.His brave appearance when awake is the opposite now that he is sleeping. I wanted to reach out and caress his slightly stubbled cheek but I restrained myself and contented myself with looking at him.Something heavy suddenly hit my chest.He's close but it seems like he's far away.That was the content of my mind until I fell asleep and woke up the next day.Edmund and I ate together and then the nurse came for the medicines I needed to take.They agreed to discharge me after thr

I didn't show my nervousness. I tried to keep up with Edmund and pretend I wasn't nervous even though the truth was the first time I stepped on the smooth floor of the yacht I wanted to go back to the port again.Edmund still supported me even though I said it was fine. He took me to a room and came out when his phone rang.I, on the other hand, explored the large room and immediately settled on the couch to distract myself in front of the television because every movement of the yacht made me more and more nervous.I looked for a good movie but all I saw was horror so that's what I watched.I immediately lost my attention to the movement of the yacht but also regretted it when the scene I was watching became intense.The volume was loud because I grabbed the remote to turn it down but after pressing it a few times it still didn't turn down. It didn't work even though I slapped it on my hand.I was horrified when the killer doll's laughter suddenly soared in the movie. I anxiously loo

"A-Ah... Can you take a shower first? We'll just set up the dining table, I'll get dressed next." "Alright." I waited for the old man to say something after Edmund left but he didn't mention anything about what he saw. He only gave me instructions on what to do such as how to put the dish in the bowl quickly but not burn me. "It's fine," the old man declared. "Alright, I'll go back to the room to get dressed and clean the wound." He frowned when I mentioned the word wound, so I immediately said goodbye before he could ask. The sound of running water from the bathroom greeted me upon entering the room. I immediately went around to look at the cabinet. I don't remember if the bodyguards brought any things with me. Edmund and I didn't carry a replacement. This nightgown I was wearing was next to the jacuzzi last night so this is the only thing I wore. Clothes of different lengths and colors flashed before my eyes. There are two closets so maybe one belongs to Edmund. I pulled out

Because of what happened, I barely ate for the rest of breakfast. I saved every bite. When the food we ate was put away, I went straight to the hammock.It was behind the house, under two big acacia trees.I settled there carrying my cellphone that I hadn't touched in a few days.As soon as I logged in to my Facebook, I was greeted with so many messages from Nina. I didn't read everything, I just replied to his last message.Nina:Lily, where are you?Me:Good morning!I haven't blinked three times before I received a reply.Nina:Finally you replied! What are you doing! Let's meet, I'm home!Me:Edmund and I are out of town...I accompanied it with a sad emoji.Her first reply was the crying cat.Nina:Second honeymoon?Me:No, work related. Where are you now?Sometimes, you have to lie even to your closest friends. Because there are things that even if explained, you can't fully understand.Nina:Did yoga earlier.Me:Oh it's over?Nina:Not yet. But your reply is more important!I

I just laughed at him and ran towards the deeper part of the sea. When the water was up to my waist, I swam until I couldn't reach the sand. "Don't go too far!" I didn't listen to him. Instead I swam to the deeper part and dived there. I spent some time underwater because I was chasing a group of small fish. I was short of breath when I decided to float but I almost swallowed the wave that hit the side of my face because in the sand I saw Edmund remove the belt. When he removed it, he simply threw it away and followed his pants until nothing was left but boxer shorts. I coughed even though I didn't drink any water, trying to be conscious but my eyes seemed to narrow on Edmund's body that was shining with the setting sun. I felt like I was slowly gasping for breath as I watched him swim towards me. "You're still a good swimmer until now." "Huh?" none of my own behavior while mesmerized by his smiling face. "I said you still haven't changed-" "Ah yes... Yes... I'll go there fi

The bodyguard arrived with a small first aid kit. Edmund put ointment on the burns and cleaned the small cuts on my hand with alcohol and cotton."You're always troubling yourself," he said when he finished what he was doing.I just snorted.I would like to reason that we won't have anything to eat if I don't cook but I know he won't accept it for any reason."It’s here!"We both turned to the source of the shrill voice and that was all Paul was pale. He regained his 'boyish' stance and then nonchalantly walked towards us."Breakfast is here."He put down what we both cooked and my face was almost red when I saw some burnt bacon there, I'm sure it was me.When he properly landed that in front of him, he straightened up and winked at me. The corner of my lips lifted because I knew he was just saying goodbye to admire the person next to me.Edmund faked a cough so we caught a glimpse of him.His eagle eyes watched Paul."We don't need any more, you can leave now."My eyes widened sudden

It took us both a while to find what we needed. A saleslady there even helped because we couldn't really find the brand of mayonnaise that Edith was buying. It was at the top so we didn't notice. I fell on the bed when I got home. We even had a late lunch at an eatery, where I also washed my legs. We were interrupted on the way because we met two children, one of whom was bleeding from the head. The only doctor at the island's hospital said it was just a small cut, but because I panicked, we took him to the emergency room. We waited for the parents and settled the bill before leaving. "There will be dinner..." Edmund reminded. He just came out of the bathroom, already showered. "I'll set the tub on warm water, do you want?" he asked while combing his hair. "Yes please..." He returned to the bathroom and prepared my bath. I almost fell asleep there if Edmund hadn't knocked to say that dinner was ready, I wouldn't have moved to take a shower. I came out of the bathroom with only
