Twelve years later
Type stand at the deck of his yatch, the island is visible now from when he is., its looks like he come back from the past.
On the first time he saw that island., the first and he thought would be the last too.,
He close his eyes a inhale, he full his lungs with the smell of the ocean.
This is where i belong. He murmured,
He been in many beaches, in different country he visited but nothing of those can give this kind of feeling he feel when he is in this island..
Here its feels like home.
Sir, we cant come near to the shore, Its Mark one of his men come to him.
Type nod his head to Mark, and he follow him to the small boat that will bring them to the shore.
His father is already here in the island with his little sister Dianalene
He draw a deep breath,
It would be more happy if mom is here. He whisper to himself and look at the sky.
Amanda his mother die after giving birth to Dianalene eight years ago..
So since that day, it was him, his dad and Dianalene only,
te echo de menos, mama. (I miss you mom) he silently speak into his mind.
Type smile as he saw Dianalene in the shore jumping and waving at him.
Typeeeee...!!!! She shierk with excitement.
Oh.. She's so happy to see you.
Type look at the man who speak, its Tong one of his friend who come with him in the island.
His dad and Dianalene come here two days earlier than him, he had some business need to wrap up.
When they reach the shore Tong jump out in the boat first and run to Dianalene, he scoop her up and twirl around, while his little sister screaming..
Tong has been his friend for years now, and he is also his business partner, and been his shadow where ever he go. So no wonder if sometimes Dianalene is closer to him.
Type make his way out of the boat too. And as his feet step on the water, he hold his breath, he feel something, a sensation, its feels like a electrical current that run from the water to his body.
He froze for a while,he move his feet under water to feel it again but its gone.
He laugh a bit,
What the hell is that.? He ask
What.? Tong ask him. Bro your talking to you self you know.. Tong said that to him and laugh.
Shut up. He shoot him with a deadly glare, but of course its just a joke.
Dannie you give him a hug, is he your brother? He spoke to Dianalene he give her a hurt look, while his hands in his chest.
Noooo.. I love you both, dont sulk Typie...
Dianalene run to him and give him a tight hug too.,
You should love me more. He whisper to her, and kiss her in the forehead.
Dont listen to him Dannie. Tong take Dianalene arms around Type and they made their way to the house.
Type shake his head while look at them. Walking away.
Ill follow in a bit. He shouted at them.
He wants to stay there for a while.
He look around him.. Nothing change, its still look the same even twelve years has pass..
And the memories from that year is still fresh in his mine..
Type woke up in his bed., he got up and stretched, he feel so alive. No dizziness, or any painful thing that he usually feel when he woke up.
He feel....
Normal. He whisper.
He didnt remember anything aside from he lay down in the beach, but why he is in his bed now. Did his mom and dad bring him back.
He sit back on the bed, try to feel if something wrong in himself,
But nothing. He didnt feel any pain or any negative things.
He feel the opposite of it actually he feels like he is not sick.
How can it be? He ask
Anyway isnt its good, i never felt this kind of feeling for a long time, i should enjoy it ti it last.. He speak happily.
He got up from his bed, humming a song while he brush his teeth before come out to join his parents in the setting room. He look at the clock, 10 pm..
They are watching tv for sure. He murmured and made his way out in his room.
He was about to go down in the stairs, he hear some low voice in his parents room. He slowly come there,
I told you, we should not bring him here.
He heard his mother voice.
Amanda, those are just a story only. It has nothing to do with what happened to our son earlier.
Its his dad.
Type stop and listen to what his parent saying.
What happened to me earlier? He ask himself.
He come closer to his parents room.
Then how do you explain what happened, he been out there in the water for a long time, he is just there floating, and its like just he been sleeping. And we both know he is not that good in swimming..
Oh my God Amanda! Dont tell me you still believe on them. They are just a legend! Mostly likely a story created by the writers out in their imagination. They are just a fantasy.
His dad voice is low but he can sense the anger in there.
Legend.? What are they talking about? And what is my connection on that.. Type is so confused bout what his parent topic.
Legend or not! I will go back in the city tomorrow with my son. He will not set his foot back in here ever again!
His mom voice raised, the anger is there and Type sense some fears too.
But to where? To who? Why his mother is so worried.
He run back to his room as fast as he can when he heard his mother footstep coming near to the door.
When he come inside his own room he go straight to the bathroom and he heard his door open and his mom come inside.
Type.?!! His mom call him with a panic on her voice.
He come out from the bathroom, pretended that he just finish cleaning himself.
His mom come to him and hug him.
How are you son? She ask him, her eyes have unshed tears ready to pour out any minute.
Im okey mom., He answer her and give his best smile to her.
He saw her draw a deep breath.
Im sorry if i make you worried. He kiss his mom while saying those words.
Esta bien mi amor,(it's okey my love). The important is youre safe.
His mother hug him.
Ready your things we're going back home tomorrow.
Even though Type know about them leaving the island he still feel sad.
He dont want to leave yet.
Can we just stay for two days or more mom.?
Im sorry son. I cant let you stay here anymore. We are leaving tomorrow. She let him go and leave his room.
Type slowly sit in his bed and look out in his window. he can see the sea from there. He stand and walk near his window,
The sea is so beautiful under the moonlight., the wave is so calm, its like a music to his ears, the smell of the salted water is refreshing his lungs as he inhale it deeply.
I feel so normal. Type whisper, it is new to him, and unfamiliar.
He been sick for a year that he forget how to feel being a normal.
In the morning when he wake up, he need to stay in bed until he wont feel dizzy, his whole body is always in pain. Bruises is everywhere in his body.
He never feel this kind of feeling for a long time., and he like it.. It makes him feel normal again.
He turn his back from the window and about to leave, but then he stop.
He heard a humming voice., the same of what he heard the other night.
Its so beautiful, like a lullaby, taking all the bad feelings he had, and its coming from the sea.
And it feels like the voice is calling him.
What is in there.? Type ask himself as he look at the sea.
The sea is calling him, its like have a invisible thread that connected to him.
Welcome home Type...
Type step back, he heard it right.. Along with the humming sound a voice come with it..
Welcoming him home...
HOME..?? Type say those words again..
What is in there..? He ask again. He is so confused, but he feel so good that he is like actually feel at HOME...
