Necklace
Chapter 1
"Deynaiah, deynaiah", Chantal shouted while running towards me. "Look, I found a lot of seashells, let's make them a nice bracelet."
"Hey easy, take a breath haha", I chuckled. "Yes, you've got a lot of nice seashells and their very pretty. Let's make a lovely bracelets, one for you and one for me, come on. Let's go home."
We are very happy walking towards my home.
But before we proceed to my story, let me introduce my self first. I'm Deynaiah Blue Coral and I am about to turn eighteen years old. I have a long wavy brown hair with a single blonde streak in the front. I don't know why my hair is like this. But anyway, let's proceed. I also have deep blue eyes that I got from my mother as what my father said to me when I was young, but it's so sad that I never met or saw my mother since birth and that's my BIGGEST WISH in my eighteenth birthday. Wish me luck!
Chantal on the other hand is my bestfriend. We used to play during our childhood days and even now were teenagers. I love how loving, caring, dramatic and playful Chantal is. She's like a sister to me. She's my neighbor also. Since our parents are friends, we really treasure our relationship and friendship.
"You're seventeen now, what's your plan for your eighteenth birthday?" Chantal asked me while making seashells bracelet.
"Father said my debut will be held at the beach in front of Casa Coral. That's all he said but I'm sure it will be fun. I want it to be simple but Father did not agree since it's my debut my eighteenth birthday and I'm her only daughter, you knew my Father right?" I said.
"Yeah, yeah, he really loves his only daughter Miss Deynaiah Blue Coral. The heiress of Coral Beach and Resort. " Chantal said while rolling her eyes in a funny way.
"Are you hungry? You want to eat some cheese cake?" I asked.
"Yeah sure, you really know my favorite. I'd love that, did you baked it?" asking while looking at me.
"Yes I baked it since I'm craving it, hahaha " I laughed.
We ate a lot of cheesecake and have some chitchats while making seashells bracelets. And after that we decided to get some fresh air and walked at the beach.
While walking, Chantal noticed and pointed a small cafe near the shore. I look to the place where she pointed.
"Yeah sure, that looks like a nice place, is that new?" I asked and smiled at her.
The place looked nice, vibey, and cute. It had those colorful little lights hanging and little umbrella tables out on a little patio outside and it had a lot of different kinds of flowers with a lot of butterflies flying on it. It's very lovely since I really love flowers and butterflies. It has chimneys with a small dolphin decorations, its very pretty. I already love the ambience and the place. I and Chantal started walking to the said cafe when I stepped on something while I wasn't looking. That something is a gold necklace with a picture in it. It is a mother daughter picture. The mother is beautifully smiling together with her little baby girl. They have deep blue eyes like mine.
"Hey Deynaiah, are you coming with me?" Chantal confusedly asked when she noticed that I am not walking with her.
"Yeah, I'm coming," I immediately put the necklace inside my pocket and ran to her.
When we enter the place, it is very comforting to me. I really like the place. It feels like I'm in my home.
"What do you want to eat? Do you want some cake or frappe or coffee or latte? Chantal asked in excitement.
"You're going to eat again? As I remember you ate the whole cheesecake that I baked." In my disbelief.
"I'm starving," with a pout. "Come on, let's eat."
So we order some pastries and drinks and sit in the patio near the front door. While having conversations with Chantal, I noticed a woman in her mid-forty sitting quietly. She's a beautiful woman, she looks like an angel, her hair is wavy and long with light brown color with a streak of blue in her side hair. She has deep blue eyes same as mine. I felt overwhelmed. It feels like my heart is pumping so fast that I don't undersatand why. I'm very amazed of her. She's sipping her coffee while looking at the beach. In my mind, I think she's familiar to me. I don't know if where did I saw her or met her or whatever.
Chantal noticed again that I am not answering her questions again, she tapped me on my shoulder and I flinched.
"What were you saying again?" me asking Chantal in confusion.
"I said, are you not going to eat your food? Look, I'm almost done. Are you okay?" she asked.
"Of course I am okay", with my jolly voice. And then I looked in my right side where the woman is sitting but she's not there anymore. I looked around but I did not saw her.
After spending some time in that cafe we decided to go home because it is past 5 in the afternoon already. We bid goodbye and do our handshake. When I'm already in our house, I saw my father watching TV News in our living room.
"Hey dad, I'm home." I kissed his forehead.
"Hey honey." He smiled.
