Ebb and Flow

CHAPTER THREE

Orion had already got these strange feelings but never let them ruin his day, as he should keep these feelings away from Eloise.

Now it's Eloise on the phone.

He got a glittering smile while taking in the surroundings.

“You can find me on the East Coast Point…nature is pretty nice here”, Eloise said on the phone.

Orion knows life is a wild goose chase, as everything can easily take a wrong turn, but his desire for Eloise remains untouched.

As the sun is about kissing, the coastline unfolds like a canvas of serenity, with gentle waves caressing the shore with a soothing melody.

A soft and well-directional breeze whispers through the beach grass, rustling the leaves and carrying the sweet scent of blooming sea lavender.

The tides ebbed and flowed.

Could this moment define the love beginning of Eloise's visit to Landmarks Bay or ruin every feeling she's got in her heart?

Orion's walking steps changed as soon as he got his eyes on Eloise a bit far towards the coast. He felt so good that he never thought of anyone else but the modest girl who gave him these strange feelings.

She has a peaceful feeling, staring at the ocean waters and the entire people present at Landmarks Bay. It feels different for her because it shows all over her face.

Orion walked behind her with a slow tone, he said.

“Good to see you, Eloise. Hope you got the perfect peace from the ocean breeze.

“Oh yeah, good to see you, Orion," as she quickly hugged him warmly.

Orion felt so good but wanted a kiss because he felt it was the icing on the cake.

It was a beautiful moment between them as she got butterflies in her belly. She winked at him with a lovely smile.

She knew nothing much about Orion as she only focused on their present.

Orion, as a gentleman, never failed to impress, as he is a maestro of his craft. He called out the beach side fresh juice specialist, to make some tasty drink for the

Would you mind having some grilled meat, hamburger, seafood, pop corn, sandwiches or trail mixed with nuts and dried fruits? What do you like so much about?

He asked as she got her face lit up with a radiant smile.

“I only care about this moment, and you should know that you're the glue that holds everything together.” Eloise sa

Orion knows life is filled with a complex, harmonious mix of emotions, but he feels nothing rather than knowing she's a ray of sunshine.

“Let's have some tasty fruit," he said as he prioritized mixed fruit juice, the same thing as Eloise.

The fruit specialist was quick with his service as they both had their fruit in their hands and a natural view of the ocean water.

“I know there's a much better life here unlike Downtown, " she stared at him as she sipped.

“Everywhere around the universe has a good life though some parts are considered better. If you say so

“ You want to come over to Downtown sometime again? Eloise Asked

“Oh yeah, I don't mind, but not anytime soon. I've got more to catch up with.

“Alright, I know you're a busy bee, " she said with a radiant smile on her face.

“Why did you choose to help at the party night? I know my friend gets sorta crazy. But you shouldn't choose to be with us in the hospital giving your time and kindness.

“You shouldn't worry so much about that," she said.

“It was me and nothing too special about it. He needed help and I couldn't hesitate to render the same heartfelt service.

How is he doing now?

"He was doing great," Orion responded immediately.

Did you pay the night pleasure lady as she got your friend in a strange situation?

She laughs contagiously as she awaits his response.

Oh! That heck got her pay, before things turned out good. He also got this contagious smile on his face.

Indeed, it was a crazy night at the party, but I got pissed with his actions to get him away from alcoholic drinks. He acted cool but not actually who he was earlier.

Orion got more interested in these conversations, but he wanted to know more about Eloise and wished she could narrate better about her struggle.

He thought of the first night at the party hall and tried to know who she came out to meet before the incident.

Eloise is so smart as she understands body language and her surroundings so well…looking at Orion, she knows he is finding it difficult to ask her questions, so he doesn't get her feelings of trouble.

She was so transparent enough to let him understand her through nature, her grit and her concern about being a better person no matter how hard life hits him.

“I was at the party night at a friend's invitation. It was disappointing as I could not meet him due to the situation between your friend and the lady. Eloise Narrates

“I couldn't return to the party. I made my way back to Downtown, leaving a text for him to know I couldn't meet him.

“It's good to know someone still has a kind heart towards the people around them. Your gesture is admirable, and I really appreciate everything you did at that moment.

Orion speaks with a smile, expressing his past admiration for Eloise.

The sun is fast pacing towards fading away, keeping its rays beautiful and longer shadows for

Orion couldn't feel much of his gentleman attributes. He wanted something more for Eloise as he asked her to take a walk with him towards a spot filled with grilled meat with aromatic and nose-blinding scents.

“Let's get a taste of this. "I know it tastes nice, and you will love to eat more of it," he said in a romantic voice.

No hesitation on Eloise's face as she stepped up with him towards the spot.

They got good moments on the spot, but not enough at this time with Amelia on the phone again.

Orion feels disturbed as he struggles with his feelings, trying to navigate his facial expression on Eloise's notice.

He got on the phone immediately but couldn't hold on too long to Amelia's words on the phone.

As she responded with a text

”I'm so pissed at myself for ruining your moments. Please forgive me, let's get a drink tonight at 7pm.

“I gotta meet Clara at Landmarks Bay right now. Please forgive me, let's get a drink tonight at 7pm.”

“I have got to meet Clara at Landmarks Bay right now.”
