PROLOGUE: "Missing Summer" by Summer Solstice
"Missing Summer" by Summer Solstice There is someone I miss Along with that summer bliss With a sweet smile and hot tears Recounting those 45 days with ease You hugged my heart tight Like it was yours from the start Along with your coffee and light Like it was mine for a long time Chorus: Oh Summer, My Summer Can I just go back with you Oh I'm just Missing Summer Can you just go back with me too There is someone I lost Fading along with my memories But I'm trying to hold on And never forget those 5 Sundays I've wronged you and left me Didn't fight this love for you Hurt you like this is for me And cause my own heartbreak too Bridge: Now, you are nowhere to be found I've tried to deny but it doesn't work out Now you are nowhere to be found I've lost the one that makes myself out -------------- Shien's POV Present time I was busy looking at the familiar but beautiful scenery in front of me. The sound of waves and the setting sun keeps on giving me a peaceful feeling but melancholic inside. I am wearing a simple buttoned white polo and I left the first three buttons open. I paired it with simple brown shorts. I just got here in Batangas two hours ago and left my baggage inside the cottage prepared by our band's personal secretary. I miss this place so much. This beautiful place was called Isla Minerva and this is my favorite paradise. I am surprised that after being commercialized, the glow and beauty of this place are still the same. I think I would give a good review of this place when I meet Gio later. Gio, the owner of this place, was my college friend at De Vera University in Manila. He invited me and the band I am managing to sing to his own wedding. I actually don't have any problem with that but this place... it just gives me painful memories. It's been so long since I want back to this place. "Sir, Summer Solstice has just arrived here in Isla Minerva. You were scheduled to have a dinner meeting with them by seven o'clock. But they came late. Will you proceed as scheduled?" A familiar voice asked me from behind. I immediately stopped thinking and glanced my way to Miss Benitez, our secretary. "All right and tell them to do not to be late this time. I've waited for them for too long. I would like to know what kept them busy to be late when I have given them an entire day yesterday and today to prepare in coming here," I said irritated to Miss Benitez that seems scared to me. She was just new in this industry and I have never been too good to her actually. I mean, to no one. I don't put emotions at work. So as long as your good at your job, I will not change. But I will not be too nice either. Maybe that's the reason why the employees can't stay for too long to work. Good thing our talent agency has a good amount of salary and benefits that's why we can still get some employees. I know that Ola's Entertainment, my company, can keep up the track even I am a grumpy and perfectionist boss. We have a good set of talents to brag. "Noted Sir," she said and immediately left me to probably talk to the boys since it's already quarter to seven in the evening. Now, I was about to go back to my cottage to prepare for dinner when I noticed a weird looking woman in front of my door. She has this grey colored pixie hair. She was wearing a loose white t-shirt tucked inside his navy blue shorts. Her built seems familiar to me. I walked slowly toward her to get a good look on her face since she was facing my door. 'Is she one of Gio's staff?' I said to myself. I was about to get close to her when I heard her talk that made my heart skipped a beat. "What's wrong with this key?! I badly want to come inside!" the woman said. I stopped walking and took a good look at her figure. 'Is that you Summer?' I asked myself nervously. Then I checked my pocket to see if my room key was still there. I was right. "What's wrong with you?!" she shouted on my door like it's a real living thing. She seems so irritated and sat down in front of my door for a second. I can't stop watching her because I fear that she might just suddenly vanished... again without me knowing. She stood up and raised his right foot like she will break my door that helped me go back to my senses. "Stop right there," I softly said. I can't breathe. Then the woman stopped because of my presence. After that she glanced my way and in a matter of seconds, her eyes grew wide and her mouth slightly open. I tried to act cool even I really want to hold her right now. I walk towards her and some buried memories kept coming back. 'How I miss you, Summer.' I wanted to tell her. But instead, I said, "That's my room, Casa Diana A. What's your room number?" She looked away with me and glanced at the top of the door, checking if that was really Casa Diana A. Then, she bit her lip in embarrassment. "I am sorry. I think I got the wrong room. If you'll excuse me," she immediately said to me without looking at me. Then she got her black cap on the floor and wear it. She walked pass at me but I grab her right arm, and madly said, " Where have you been all this time Summer?"
