liezel and I walked quietly , and looked around I coughed a little untrue just to break the silence with the two of us I changed with him during the time we were together he just became quiet and didn't even say a word
as the two of us were walking we got a little farther away , and we saw a group of people with a band singing on stage
" let's watch there " he suddenly said and smiled that he wasn't serious anymore he pulled me towards the groups of people the others were singing along to the song while clapping to the beat of the song I was just looking around when suddenly my eyes saw the vocalist of the band
my world stopped and he was the only one I could see his voice was beautiful and conveyed emotion even in shorts and a polo shirt with a tree design it was attractive to him look at what he was wearing on his body even if it wasn't too big just right for me her attractive look
" wins is that the man in the airport? " liezel asked bringing me back to reality I looked at her and she was also there at the man looking
" yes that's the man " yes that's the man " I said and looked at the singer again and at the same time I saw that he was also looking at me I looked around but there was no one behind me because we were here in the back not too far so that the face could not be seen from stage I looked at the man again and he was still looking at me or maybe I was just thinking that he was looking at me . There was a smile on his lips , I don't know if he was smiling at me or not assuming I was again
" is he looking at me? " I asked liezel but she was no longer beside me I turned around but I couldn't see her
the band finished playing and one of them came down to talk to the woman, even with my back turned, I knew her it was liezel, my friend had another plan, she was muttering that she had already made a decision and I was the one who made the bet
The man climbed on stage again and whispered to the singer in the band, when the group finished talking they started playing , the guitarist took the lead and the drummer followed
in the intro , I know that the music is also one of the ones I often listen to " collide by howie day " i said in my mind and smile
*Collide
Song by Howie Day*
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah
He started singing and looked at me without losing his gaze and I just looked at him with a smile
I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again
Even the best fall down sometime
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide
It's weird but I can't help but look at her, I felt liezel next to me trembling I can't even see but I know she's also looking at me with a smile
I'm quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide
Don't stop here
I lost my place
I'm close behind
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find
You and I collide
Finally find
You and I collide
(Do do do do)
(Do do do do)
You finally find
You and I collide
the performance ended and he walked towards our direction, I couldn't move from where I was standing because my mind and body seemed to be arguing I wanted to leave but my body didn't want to move
he approached us with a smile " hi im Jeon Felix , just call me Jeon " he said and held out his hand to shake hands with us or just me not for assuming but he was just looking at me
" Im Winslet, and she's my best friend liezel " I said while shaking hands with him liezel did the same
he invited us to drink in nearby resto bar
he ordered us a lady's drink and he order a beer for herself
I haven't been drinking since before because my alcohol tolerance is low, let's say the lady's drink is low, I still feel a bit dizzy
" winslet I would like to apologize for what happened on the plane I couldn't speak because you turned around suddenly " he said with one hand on his head
I was a little embarrassed by what he said, I was rude when I didn't know, and then I told liezel that he didn't even apologize
" It's okay, I should be sorry because I turned my back on you, suddenly you should speak " i said and bowed slightly in embarrassment
" It's a coincidence that you're also going here, who's with your family? boyfriend or just the two of you ? "
he asked that the former is a bit different you just want to know if we have a boyfriend or maybe it's just me , im assuming again
" no just the two of us best friend vacation " liezel said and take a sip in her drink
during our conversation we didn't realize that at three in the morning we decided to go home we said goodbye to each other when jeon suddenly spoke again
" Can I take you to your room so I don't worry , I know you got home safely " he said and liezel and I looked at each other and we both agreed, the three of us just kept quiet while walking we were still embarrassed, I also had nothing to say so I just bowed my head while walking
when we were close to our room I looked up, " this is where you walked a long way , maybe your companions are looking for you , thank you for taking us " I smiled and said he also smiled back and scratched his head
" its Ok my pleasure " he said and turned around to walk again
" something's fishy " liezel teased me and laugh we walk again towards our room when we enter i lay in my bed , i smiled remembering what happened earlier
I also felt tired and at the same time the weight of my lid made me drowsy , I couldn't even change my clothes , I was too lazy to get up , tomorrow I'll change my clothes and take a bath
" wins wake up ! " said liezel as she tapped me on the shoulder " wins wake up its already 10 in the morning " he added to what he said I wouldn't have gotten up yet so I just knew liezel would tickle me until I woke up
" yes, I'll wake up " i said and took my cellphone from the side table but it didn't open, the battery was low i stood up and go in the bathroom , i took a quick shower and brush my teeth i saw liezel wearing a two-piece , " it's time to swim in the sea" she said happily, i get one pair of my bikini and get some bikini robe that suit in my bikinis color
I went into the bathroom again to put on my bikini and when I finished I looked in the mirror I couldn't help but marvel at myself " I'm sexy " I said and laughed a little at the thought ,
I came out of the bathroom and charged my cellphone, I took the small bag of make up, I put a light lipstick on my lips, that's what liezel does and we put some anti -sunburn lotion in our skin and after that we invited each other to go out for breakfast and sunbathe in sea side
" one order for this and one for this and a two coffee latte " liezel said to the waiter and the waiter left to take our order , I was just stunned as if I was out of my mind when jeon suddenly entered my mind , what is he doing , where is he ?
" hey , ms our food is already here and yet your out of your mind , hmm its jeon right you're thinking of him " said liezel with a tickle on my side
" Hey ! It's not that, you're crazy, is it bad, I'm just wondering , why I should think of that man " i slipped away from what he said rather than my friend teasing me even if i was pissed off . she just give me a smirk and we started to eat
After we finished we find some spot near the ocean, I took off my cover and laid it on the sand and I sat down and liezel went straight to the sea to swim
I looked around and in the distance I saw a family they were happy to see they were laughing and laughing I suddenly felt a pain in my heart I remembered my parents
" mom , a few years later , I'm still hurt by your loss. how are you guys there ? I miss you both, dad please take a good care of mom " I said and felt my tears trickle down
i wiped my tears as i saw liezel walking towards my direction
" the sea water refreshes the body relish to feel " said and sat down next to me I averted my face so he could not see my eyes
" ill go swim " i said and stand up without looking at her
" ok " she said and i continue to walk ...
* Liezel point of view *
I already know my friend . Even if his mood suddenly changes , I don't keep up with her , I understand her because she's going through something. her parents died a long time ago , not by accident but by illness , her mom first disappeared with her and then her dad followed because of her grief over the loss of her wife, he also followed soon after .
That's why I always make her happy and invite her to go somewhere to forget the pain she feels even for a moment, sometimes I feel sorry for my friend because she lacks attention so I'm always by her side to somehow fill it .
so I decided for him to meet one of my friends , I hope they get along well because the first time they met it seemed like they were sparking so I hope to continue I don't even do that I introduce them to each other right away but I hope everything goes well ...
* end of point of view *
It was afternoon when we decided to go home to our room and change our clothes so we could eat dinner , I wore under knee shorts and a white t shirt and tied my hair , it looked simple but the result was good for me .
We also left the room after getting ready to find a restaurant to eat , even though I'm not in the mood right now to chat with my friend , I feel that she understands because she lets me go first , when I'm ok again she knows it's me will be messy and she will give up , she knows if it's ok I'll invite him to go shopping .
not to brag but money is not a problem for us because we have a business not even big but we have many branches , that's what my parents left that business for me and they also have money set aside for me , I'm the only child so everything they do before they disappear they have already done so that I will not suffer in the future .
we entered a restaurant the ambiance is nice you won't get bored around because it is surrounded by flowers of different colors, they also have an aquarium that is big with a small tree and there are also flowers and butterflies .
I ordered pork sinigang because it's on their menu and I'm looking for sour broth right now . liezel order the same as i and we eat peaceful and silent
" I'm full, let's order desert what do you want ? " liezel asked me and I thought for a while
" i like a custard cake " i said and liezel call some waiter to take our order .
" we want a custard cake one of that and one order for moist chocolate " said and the waiter left .
after a minute waiter came back with our order waiter out our order on the table we immediately tasted ,
" heaven " we both said and laughed, we went back to eating desert and then I paid for what we ate ,
we left the restaurant and walked back to the room even though our day wasn't too tiring but we could rest early ,
I woke up early and did my daily routine then I went out on the terrace to freshen up for two nights and one day we were here at the resort what else is so good to do . . .
" here you are , I thought you came out " said liezel in the back with her hair still messy because she just woke up and yawned .
" let's go shopping " I said with a smile and stood up that she was happy with what he heard and ran to the bathroom like a child .
we left the resort to go to the mall we waited for a taxi and were told to take us to the mall since we didn't know the place .
when we arrived i was amazed at the beauty and size of this mall yes i can go to big malls and it's as beautiful as this one but it's weird the beauty of the surroundings that even if it's not christmas there are many decorations around .
we didn't waste time going immediately to one of the department stores we looked at the clothes and of course didn't lose the dresses I wanted I bought a maroon color that was simple to look at even without a design. there is also a pitch color off shoulder and black dress with a touch of red .
liezel , on the other hand , bought t - shirts and a few dresses that were beautiful and definitely something for her , we also bought doll shoes that were simple to look at but elegant , we bought three pieces each .
after we walked around the mall we both felt hungry because we also couldn't have breakfast we went to a fast food restaurant I ordered a burger and fries and coke because I also didn't feel like eating rice that was what liezel ordered .
we looked at the clock on our cellphone and at three in the afternoon we decided to go home to the resort because we had no plans to buy anything because we already had a lot with us .
we changed our clothes and went out to see the beautiful sea again even though we were just the two of us we sat by the fireplaces and made a bonfire that night and the air was a bit cold we were good at positioning ourselves here so we wouldn' t get cold easily .
liezel left for a while because she said she was just going to get something , she also said he would come back right away and when she came back she had a guitar with him I smiled .
he handed me the guitar and I started thinking of a good song , I started playing the guitar " dont matter by Akon " is what I play . . .
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
'Cause we gon' fight, oh yes, we gon' fight
Believe we gon' fight
Fight for our right to love, yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
Nobody wanna see us together
Nobody thought that we'd last forever
liezel accompanied me to sing while we both smiled even though the song was masculine the singing changed I made the version more feminine
I feel them hoping and praying
Things between us don't get better
Men steady coming after you
Women steady coming after me
Seems like everybody want to go for self
And don't wanna respect boundaries
Telling you all those lies
Just to get on your side
But I must admit there was a couple of secrets I held inside
But just know that I try
To always apologize
But I'ma have you first
Always in my heart to keep you satisfied
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
'Cause we gon' fight, oh yes, we gon' fight
Believe we gon' fight
Fight for our right to love, yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
Got every right to want to leave
Got every right to want to go
You got every right to hit the road
And never talk to me no more
You don't even have to call
Or even check for me at all
Because the way I've been acting lately
Has been off the wall
Especially towards you
Putting girls before you
And they watching everything I've been doing just to hurt you
Most of it just ain't true
And they won't show you
How much of a queen you are to me
And why I love you, baby
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
'Cause we gon' fight, oh yes, we gon' fight
Believe we gon' fight
Fight for our right to love, yeah
Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter, no
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
'Cause I got you, babe
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
'Cause I got you, babe
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
'Cause I got you, babe
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

we finished the song and we both clapped in delight ,
We were on our way back to the room when we met some men who blocked our way . Many people were around but they didn' t notice us because they were also busy doing something there business . We tried to step again to get the situation end but they still blocked us . One of the men where trying to touch me when someone interrupted and suddenly appeared and held the mans hand to stop touching me .
