Chapter 4-part 1: Maldives

"What do you want?" he asked.

We are still on vacation leave from our work because we are going to the Maldives. I don't want a honeymoon like this but I can't do anything because he wants it.

"I want to rest," I said and lay down on the bed.

He nodded and looked back at the laptop. I was tired all afternoon because I had people to talk to. My co-worker ordered me to fix my resignation paper. I wanted to quit that job because my sister also works there.

I want to get out of their lives. I have to act without them knowing. It would be better this way so I can talk to Zac about my revenge. I can't miss what they did to me.

When we return to the Philippines, I will carry out my plan. I will not silence them for what they have done to me. I could never allow them to be happy while I was suffering from the pain they caused me.

When we got to the Maldives I had already arranged our things. I was almost the only one to fix the equipment because he was always in front of his laptop. He said he was able to leave work but it didn't seem like that.

He didn't need to be reprimanded because he knew what he had to do. Another is that we don't have to go here if he has done a lot. I understand that he has a lot of responsibility in his company, especially now that he is married to me.

As far as I know, the company that would have been BGC will be transferred to him. I shouldn't know about such things anymore because I know I'm not allowed to interfere in such things.

"I'm hungry," he said. He stood up and approached me. He took my hand and sat down next to me.

"What do you want?" I asked.

He laughed, "You."

What he said made me gasp. He is always like this whenever he is tender. I don't know yet if we love each other but there is nothing wrong with me loving him. We're getting married but I'm afraid he might love me back.

“I’ll just fix all this then let’s go out,” I said and grabbed my bag.

He nodded and stood up. He headed to the bathroom so I just focused on what I was doing.

After me, he also came out of the bathroom. He just took a bath. He was just topless while holding a towel and wiping his face.

"I'll just change then, let's go out," he said.

I took off my sandals and put them on. I just waited for him to finish getting dressed and then we went out.

Nice to live here case very expensive. I can't afford to live here and I can't either because it's just a vacation. I also want to be there in the Philippines because I'm not done with my revenge.

"Just enjoy the day Kailah, when we go back to the Philippines you might not be able to enjoy it because we're back to work,"

"I just can't help but think of things, I know when we get there the calvary of my life will begin again," I said.

“Your life won’t be a calvary until you’re with me,” he said and pulled at my waist.

I sighed because of what he did. It's as if I'm feeling something in my stomach that I can't explain. We're almost one together but I don't know if I'm comfortable with him.

“Just tell me if you’re not comfortable with what I’m doing so I can avoid it,” he said and hesitated to remove the rash on my waist.

I immediately took his hand that was on my waist and I wrapped it more. I can't understand but all I know is that I want him to hold my waist. I immediately heard his weak laugh, he approached, next to my ear.

"I like it," he whispered.

I was immediately horrified by what he said. I swallow hard and close my eyes tightly. Is it right I feel?

When they served our order, we didn't talk anymore. I just finished my meal. When we were done we went out. I didn't even ask where we were going. He knows this place so no need to worry. I am comfortable whenever he is with me. I don't know but I feel like I'm in heaven. Lols.

We did nothing but eat, take walks, and so on. That's what he wants and I enjoy it too. We headed to a restaurant called Reethi. Their food is delicious, Zac ordered kinds of seafood because that is their specialty. We ate at various other restaurants.

It's just tiring because Reethi beach is far away. In Thiladhoo we stayed there at The Nautilus Maldives. When we returned to Thiladhoo we immediately headed to the room. I went into the bathroom while he was lying on the bed. He was also tired.

I just showered because I wanted to swim. I won't invite Zac either because he might still be tired. Then I wrapped the towel around my body and then went out of the bathroom.

I immediately went to the closet to get my swimwear. It's just one piece of green. When I wore it, the shape of my body was obvious. I sighed softly. I took the bathrobe and put it on.

When I came out I looked at Zac. Lying in bed and sleeping soundly. I just stared at him. To this day I still can’t believe what happens at the super-fast pacing of my life.

I sighed, and a cold breeze of air immediately blew over me. The little waves are what keep everything cool. I looked around. It was dark and not very crowded. I don't know what time it is but when we got back here it was already dark.

I took off the bathrobe I was wearing and placed it on the lounge chair.

I walked closer to the pool. I walked downstairs until my body sank. I just swam. I didn’t know where I was going but I knew it had a limit.

I just go back and forth to swim. I'll just take a breath and swim again. Just keep repeating until I get tired. I decided to stop. I clung to the railings and then climbed up.

My eyes immediately caught the one standing in front of me. Zac stood there looking at me. I didn't know he had been there before, he was just sober and not moving. When I got up I walked over to the lounge chair. I took off the bathrobe and wiped my wet body.

"Have you been there before?" I asked him.

I just turned my back on him as I adjusted myself I didn’t have the strength to face him. I don't know but even though we've been together all day, I'm still really ashamed of him for a while.

"I thought you were going to sleep, you still want to go swimming. I hope you woke me up to be with you," he said and walked over to my side. He sat on the other lounge chair while I put on a robe and then sat on the lounge chair.

"I didn't wake you up because you fell asleep, I know you're tired too so I let you go. I'm okay here, there's no one here so you don't need to accompany me anymore," I said and closed my eyes.

He did not speak. Silence prevailed between the two of us. I have no intention of speaking because I have nothing to say either. We could hear only faint waves. The silence is deafening.

During the days I was with him I didn’t know what we were. We were married but I knew I couldn’t fall in love with him as he wanted to happen. The phrase 'Don't fall in love with me' always imprints on the brain.

Even though what he was making me feel was confusing I had to be firm. We have an agreement so I shouldn’t break it. He just helped me and I helped him get what he bequeathed. Maybe the time will come, he will leave me too.

"When you will start the plan?" he asked. I opened my eyes and glanced at him

When will I get them back? When will I make the plan I want to happen. It wasn’t enough pain I gave them when I got married because I knew they weren’t hurt that much. They were just angry but they weren’t hurt like the pain I felt. Just a little patience and they will feel the pain I will give.

"Not right now but the day will come when they will suffer everything they do to me. I will never forget that. I will come back, I will fight."

Your whole “ I, she, he, him” is confusing. Sometimes I have to read the sentence twice to catch on to who you are talking about.
